Holly Shkolnick: "A pleasant place to go walking. Plus, the bridge has a really cool lighting thing at night. Did I mention moon floats during the summer? I like this place."
Sarah Hinzman: "Here's what you're gonna do. Order the 2 pints & 2 lbs. of wings. Beers: Lost Coast Apricot Wheat & Bent River Jalapeño Pepper Ale. Order 1/3 each of tang, dry rub, and mexican wings. Then die happy."
Austin Westermann: "Best venue in Iowa period! Try to get as close as you can to the front, it makes the experience even better, you feel so immersed!"
Erik Rowley: "It's like stepping into a time warp where it's still the year 1975 (wood panel walls and all, minus the ash trays). Also they have freaking tang here in powder form! Great with vodka."
Nathan Wright: "Centro's bar area has one of the best street views of Downtown Des Moines. My favorite dish is the hand-rolled Caviatelli. The Sunday morning Bloody Mary bar is also a can't miss."
Vanessa Marcano-Kelly: "Delicious sushi, confident dishes and classy presentation, as well as atmosphere. Don't miss out on the seaweed salad or the rainbow roll (the one rolled up in cucumber). Best sushi in Des Moines!"
Tony Tandeski: "One of the best farmers markets in the U.S. With 300+ vendors, you'll definitely find what you need. And come hungry, there's plenty of food vendors perfect for breakfast. Don't miss it!"
Ashley Kasper: "Buy the peanut butter! And the honey, then grab a wheat grass shot to freshen things up. Then mango on a stick, flavored popcorn, veggies for a farm-2-table dinner. End with fresh flowers for the home"
Kristen Moran: "Best theater in town. They have a great selection of movies, often ones that other theaters don't show. And you can have some beer or wine with your buttery popcorn. Doesn't get better than that."
Miss KB: "I really love this theater for supporting smaller, indie movies and interesting events like showing old classics and lesser known documentaries. You can get a glass of wine or a beer, too."
