Restaurants near Boone and Scenic Valley Railroad and Museum

Thanksgiving at Cooper’s Hawk was worth it. The flavor of the food was fantastic, the waiter was awesome (shout out to Michael!), and the wine was amazing. Cynthia was our wine tasting expert and she is always a hoot. I highly recommend Cooper’s Hawk any time and I do recommend it for Thanksgiving.

Over the years when I was still working I ate many meals at Ruth’s Chris. As a result I am very familiar with their high standards for food and service. We were recently in Des Moines and had the opportunity to eat at the Ruth’s Chris in West Des Moines. The service with Krystal was excellent per usual. The ambience was absolutely off the chart. Beautiful decor and even though they were very busy, we could use normal conversation and hear one another so the acoustics were also excellent. We were celebrating my birthday and Kaitlyn (the general manager) came by on two separate occasions to make sure it was up to our expectations. I told her it exceeded our expectations! If you are in the area, I strongly suggest you visit this restaurant - you won’t be disappointed!

Wonderful experience! Great service from the bartender Sam all the way to the manager Lily. Great food…. Will definitely be going back!!

Flatbread pizza was awesome! Service outstanding. We were there early so not busy at all. Bet it's a cool place to be when a smokin' little jazz band is playing!
