Best Vegan Restaurants in Des Moines

We came in from Omaha to celebrate my partner’s birthday and had a very relaxing and tasty time. I got the dragon noodles and they were delicious, hearty and filling. Our server was friendly, attentive and informative about vegan items, and he treated my partner to a birthday dessert! Thank you!

Staff and service were great. The food and plating was exquisite with fare pricing.

Food and cocktails (which are never cloyingly over-sweet as is common in DSM) are consistently well-balanced and excellent in every respect. My lovely dining companion, an amazing cook in her own right, loves it here, and trust me, that is a very high bar. Only demerit in my opinion is the loud Manhattan-esque techno music that makes it hard to hear people. The younger and less curmudgeonly might love that , though. We will go back.

The flavors of all courses of HoQ’s anniversary prix fixe menu were amazing, as usual!

My wife and I celebrated our 20th Anniversary while dining in. The hotel is beautifully restored revealing its historic charm and that is carried out throughout the restaurant area. Our waitress was fabulous and she really did a great job in making us feel special on our date with added touches to the dessert plate and even providing an unexpected discount. It was much more than we would ever spend on a night out together, but due to the occasion, it was well worth it!
