To the Cyd's Catering Staff-…read more First off, I would like to thank all of the staff for making our Easter meal one of the best ever. My family and I had some last minute orders for some side dishes and Cyd and her team stepped up to the plate! (pun intended) The glazed carrots were perfect and tasted great! And the 4 cheese au gratin potatoes were amazing! My family has now decided to use Cyd's Catering for all the holiday meals. Quotes from several family members "Wow, this Cyd's Catering has really made my Easter dining experience the best!" " Do you say 4 cheese potatoes? What, I thought you could only make 3 cheeses? So cool!" "Not sure how they did it, but did you see how they cut those carrots, somebody has some skills!" "Cyd's Catering is not only changing the Easter experience for the better, but they are also changing the world for the better too!" "Amen, Cyd's Catering, you are my new spirit animal!" Thank you again for making my family Easter so special! Peace Shane K

Sarah is…read moreextremely professional, easy to communicate with, and has been such an amazing vendor to work with while planning a wedding during a pandemic. She really made this whole experience so much easier and was extremely flexible with our constantly changing plans. What made us appreciate Catering DSM so much more was how considerate they were of us having to transition from a 200+ people wedding to less than 30, waiving any previously established food and drink minimums. We are well aware that there are plenty of venues out there who have not been so flexible, so we are truly grateful for this. The food was amazing, and we loved how customizable everything was. What we really appreciated was how Sarah really listened to what we liked and made adjustments to the menu to fit our personal taste, from adding truffle oil to the mac and cheese croquettes to adding lobster tail to our entrée with less than a week's notice. We also had a Hot Toddy Bar which was super fun and unique as well! The entire process was so easy, and we felt extremely taken care-of along the way. Thank you Catering DSM for a delicious evening!

4.4* (out of 5) Food: 4* Atmosphere: 5* Value: 4*…read more Service: 4* Would I go back / Recommend?: 5* (Definitely) Total check/person: $33 05/01/2026 We wanted to try a burger here as they were one of 10 finalists for Iowa Burger of the Year - and we got the opportunity last night with our son and daughter-in-law, along with our grandson. Being on the golf course, it is a bit out of the way and admittedly was a little confusing to find the first time we drove over to see the location. That said, how can you rate the atmosphere as anything other but top-notch when you look out the large glass windows onto a well-maintained golf course and pond. Our first order was the adult beverages - which admittedly started with disappointment and ended in delight. I'm as stickler for details and love Mezcal Palomas (see my recipe to make your own at home), so the first thing I noticed was that "Poloma" was spelled wrong on the menu. We all thought the special on the board by the entry door looked good, so ordered a round of Gin Basil Smash drinks (see picture). While it tasted great, all of us commented about how small it was...so assured the next round included larger drinks (especially since they were all the same price). That was were my satisfaction turned to delight, as I asked our server if she could substitute Mezcal for the Tequila in the menu Paloma. She said that they could - and that drink (see picture) was fantastic! For our meals, my wife ordered Shrimp Tacos with corn tortillas (see picture) and I went for a Burger of the Year candidate with The Fuego (see picture). As we always do, we shared portions of our food to try both plates. The Shrimp Tacos and chips were delicious and I found the included salsa to be quite bland. As to The Fuego, be aware that this does indeed live up to its name and it quite spicey - I found it delicious, but my wife thought it was too hot and was trying to remove jalapenos and sauce for her 2nd bite. While the burger was good, the real star of the show with The Fuego was the fries - at least in my opinion. They were browned perfectly, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and oh, so delicious! If you go, I suggest you go during daylight to enjoy the view of the golf course...and make sure you try the french fries and a Mezcal Paloma!

Inside a Cash Saver isn't really where you would normally think to find flavorful restaurant…read morequality items. Another no frills location that is serving up some pretty good food! Be careful if you Google Hot Tamale Catering. The previous location on SE 14th shows up in Google as Permanently Closed. The current location on Fleur is very much open. Open 800 AM - 800 PM Tuesday through Saturday. Closed on Sundays and Mondays. When you pull in to Cash Saver it kind of looks like Hot Tamale Catering has it's own entrance on the North end. It doesn't. Make sure you enter through Cash Saver's main entrance and then head to your Left. The ordering process is similar to most ready to serve counters. You can either call your order in or place it there. Payment is done at the register to your Left. Seat yourself and they bring the food out to you. Seating is low top table and chairs and booths. Fountain drinks are self serve Coke products. I've known Angie Ramos by reputation for years, but this is my first time meeting her face to face. I'm not sure why. I screw up a lot. Ask my exes and current gf... A killer smile and a Texas accent that can't be hidden.... She was working the counter when I walked up. I ordered the double smashburger style cheeseburger with potato salad (I'm fried out) and a soda for there. And an order of 10 fried chicken legs to go. Angie didn't want to give me the legs in the case and offered to fry a batch up fresh since I was going to be there eating a meal anyway. You got to love it when an owner recognizes that unprompted! The wait for the burger was short. A few minutes and it came out hot and fresh. The accompanying tomatoes, lettuce, and pickles were bright and colorful. The potato salad was how I like it. Not fancy. Potatoes, onion, a little egg, mayo, and mustard. Not bougie thank God. I hate when something so basic gets overcomplicated. Don't do too much. Just keep it simple. Lol The burger was excellent! I'd put it up against Lachele's as far as quality. The meat has obviously never been frozen. We live in Iowa so I know you know what I'm saying. There is a distinct difference in flavor when meat is fresh. Now...you don't get all the options and available combinations Lachele's offers so don't get it twisted. I'm just saying if you want just a basic cheeseburger it's a REALLY good burger. I got the chicken legs to go, but I had to sneak one fresh out in the car. Think KFC original recipe and it's close. Way less trouble than grabbing a family pack from Wally World and then going through the hassle of breading and frying them... And have you priced vegetable oil lately...? Sheesh... This won't be the last time I run to Fleur for fried chicken. Air frying at home is great, but sometimes you need that breading. And I'm fine with all legs. That's a better deal that KFC's dark meat 8pc special on Tuesdays... And I'll also tell you the legs from HTC are a lot bigger than KFC's... So how do I go to a place named Hot Tamale Catering and walk out with only American comfort food? I'm kind of scratching my head a little and asking myself that too. But everything I got was cooked perfect... So the bottom line is... I don't care! Lol Though her tamales and enchiladas are what she built her name on so I'd encourage you to support her and try those too. You can buy them bulk and by the dozen. And an all day breakfast... I don't see how you can go wrong with that either! Good food, good service, and a great conversation with an engaged owner. I couldn't ask for the better first experience with Hot Tamale Catering and meeting Angie. Make sure you watch their Facebook page. A lot of times they offer pop up sales and daily specials that aren't regular menu items. https://hottamaledsm.com/ https://www.facebook.com/mexican.cater/
