I called this establishment on 4-6-2026 to ask about gift cards.

All that really matters is that the custard was fantastic! Really good size portion at a good price.read more

100% recommend. We…read moremade a trip to Mayalu Coffee just to try the momo, and it was very good. The inside is clean and relaxed, the kind of place where you actually want to sit down and take your time rather than rush through a meal. We showed up fairly close to closing, which I'll admit gave me a little hesitation, but any concern went away the moment we walked in. The owner greeted us warmly and there wasn't a hint of "please wrap this up" energy the entire time. In fact, while we were there, new customers came in after us right as closing approached, and they were welcomed just the same; orders taken, no visible frustration, no attitude. That kind of hospitability is genuinely rare and doesn't go unnoticed. The chicken momos came out fresh and had great flavor. Pricing felt good for what you get. Pro: Hospitality here is the standout. Owner clearly cares about the experience, not just the transaction. Con: Nothing. Tip: They are located next to the Subway, not the strip mall as the GPS may point you towards. They also have a drive-though for those on the go.

What a great spot! I came in to try it while staying at a hotel near airport. I took it to go…read more Great clean place, friendly staff, great food & coffee.

Try the restaurant - it's worth it. This place is more than just an orchard with fun events. They…read morehave an excellent restaurant and also do monthly themed dinners in their event space. My photos and review are of the special event so these items aren't on their regular menu, but that food is excellent as well. We have been to several of the special dinners and have enjoyed them all. These photos are from the recent Portside Chowder House seafood themed dinner. It was fantastic! So much food! The table service was exceptional with explanations of the dishes and theme. They also have a well stocked bar if you prefer cocktails or beers instead of cider. It's kind of a gem in the central Iowa restaurant scene.

This place has a lot to offer. We were visiting family in the area and glad we stopped here for…read morelunch. The menu is larger but the brunch menu had some extra options. They do rotate some menu options to keep it fresh. The food was fresh and was flavorful. The service was friendly and prompt. And the vibe was modern/industrial farmhouse. They had an extensive gift shop that had so many goodies. So much more they offer that I am not mentioning. Food specifics I tried included a delicious fig & pig pizza and the duck poutine fries and I also had the dry cider flight to drink.

First time patronizing this truck, but I'll be swinging by every chance I get if I spot them. I…read morewas doing some shopping on the South side and spotted this truck. Lunch time! Three quesabirria tacos and a chicken torta. The red sauce.... Fire!!! The green...mild and flavorful. Total was $17 and change. They take cards and my total wait was six minutes. The gentlemen working the truck were personable and it was great to be able to spend a few minutes visiting with them . The orders came with both sauces, roasted onions, and roasted peppers on the side. The quesabirria tacos are slow roasted beef and cheese on a corn tortilla then dipped or dredged in the birria broth. So good!

Person said they didn't know when anyone would be around to return the call. Asked about Covid-19 protocol. She said the owners said they didn't have to wear masks or gloves. This Brazier franchise has 7 in the Des Moines metro area. What kind of people instruct their employees not to wear protective gear? Also, still waiting for a return call from Dairy Queen to discuss Covid-19 protocol being done at their locations. I won't be going back until they have sanitized the locations, staff is wearing protective gear and is brought up to Covid-19 standards. I plan to broadcast this information whenever and wherever I can. I think the Food and Safety department should be contacted and made aware of the violations. NOT ACCEPTABLE!!!

This place is great! It's got a huge lawn out back for the kids, and good ice cream!!read more

First time visiting this location! Staff was nice, the drink…read morewas good, and the location was clean minus a few disarrayed chairs. My only two complaints are that there were no napkins at the tables or within view for customers to help themselves to and the volume of the music. The location is relatively small for how loud it was. It's easy to drown out conversation and the clatter of work, but not the Taylor Swift playlist blasting in such a small space.
