Shared a burger, fries and Apple Jacks soft serve with my 13 year old son last Friday night and it was ALL delicious! (Also, highly recommend ordering a Shirley Temple!) We were able to snag a spot at the counter and it was fun to watch the bartenders make drinks and chat with us. Love the atmosphere of this place and the friendly service was great! Can’t wait to return!

Fantastic food in a fun environment. The burger was amazing and the sauce for the fries was glorious. As you can see my son loved the oatmeal chocolate chip cookie with soft serve.

Stopped by Clyde’s on our cross-country road trip and had a great experience! Ordered the mussels, which you definitely need more bread to soak up all that delicious garlic broth that it comes in. Had to get the CFD Burger, of course. It was delicious, maybe slightly over-salted, but great flavor and juicy. Also got the scallops which were excellent. Super pleased with this cute and delicious restaurant!

Location feels open and clean. The food and service were absolutely amazing. I didn’t have a cocktail but looking at the care that went in to making them I wouldn’t be surprised if they were excellent. Prices are more than reasonable and if you enjoy Brussels sprouts this would be the spot to have some! If you find yourself near this location definitely go in and enjoy!

Probably the best restaurant in Des Moines. Are the pork Milanese too fast to take a picture. Acoustic sound system. Phenomenal drink menu. Beautiful ambiance and decor. Can’t wait to come back.

Very elegant and open. The decor and atmosphere were beautiful. The hostess was polite and my waiter was attentive, but not bothersome. The lunch menu was extremely limited. I asked to look at a dinner menu, and it had a few additions. None of the appetizers struck my fancy. A couple of the menu choices had potential, and I decided to go with the CFD burger. I balked at the prices a little bit until I tasted my food, which was absolutely delicious. The fries cost extra, but you should get them. They looked and tasted homemade. Definitely worth a return trip.

Solid food and drinks. Hot bird was ok. The collard green bed was absolutely perfect. Not my style but decent stop.
