Stopped by early morning for a crepe and it was the perfect amount to start my day. Service was…read morequick and the staff were super friendly. The place has a cozy coffee shop vibe that makes you want to stick around a little longer. The coffee itself wasn't anything to write home about, but the crepe made up for it. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town!

Tiny shop with big business! This was my third visit as i am making this review and wow it has been…read moreconsistently been busy every time i come here. I ordered the matcha green tea latte with oat milk this time. Tasty and well sweetened without having anything added. My husband ordered an iced vanilla latte and our drink loving teenager ordered an iced chai. I've had all these drinks in the past and they are consistently delicious. Shop is tiny and has seats for about 15-18 people. Comfortably: 10-12 people. It gets so packed and backed up that I never stay long enough for 15 minutes. I have always visited on a week day mid morning. Great location too. Service is nice and quick with the drinks. I have mostly been served by younger college student aged baristas. I gave 4 stars because I notice I get cross contaminated drinks and get stomachaches once in awhile when I order a hot drink. Other than that it's been a nice experience. Would recommend

I've driven by a few time and always see a crowd. I finally had time to stop and foot a try. I…read morenever found the right entrance but that was fine as the young waiter said you could pick up a chair and crash through the glass to find your way in if you wanted. Well I wanted but entered through the stage. I sat outside in the shade and it was very comfortable and surprisingly not that noisy with traffic, much to my delight. Weather was great! I had lovely service and although I was dressed haphazardly as I only brought winter cloths in tights and a shirt I picked up at a secondhand store as, surprise, it's hitting the high 70's today ! I ordered tomato bisque and a side of French bread. I asked for balsamic oil and was met with blank stares from the young man and his trainee but he was good and quickly asked for an explanation of what it was and after my disbelief that an Italian place didn't have it, I was served a little bowl(without oil) of a balsamic reduction. Well, that was alright for me and waited for hue bread and soup while I eavesdropped and a watch the college kids walk by. The tomato bisque with bread, olive oil, a mountain of garlic and a balsamic reduction soon was served and I did not go away hungry!! Lovely place!

My friend and I came here for brunch and were not disappointed. We sat on the patio and enjoyed the…read morenice weather. I had the gnocchi which was very tasty. The sauce is creamy and rich and I savored every bite. I also had a vanilla laté which came in a fun mug that seems hand crafted. My friend enjoyed the BLT and her matcha laté as well. Our waitress was very kind and attentive. Very sweet girl who is newer and doing a fantastic job. There were so many great things on the menu and will definitely come back and try another dish. The photos on Yelp seem to be for a previous business. Unfortunately I did not snap any photos while I was there but here is a few shots of the dinner menu.

Such a terrific restaurant experience, start to finish! Saddened that they will be closing in…read moremid-March. Great interior, excellent customer service throughout, and elite attention to detail. Loved their artwork, their lighting, and overall French decor. Some cool banners and photos included. Thankful for Erick, our server, who was spot on throughout. Enjoyed poutine with my fellow table members, a tasty food item that isn't available in many Midwestern areas. LOVED my Steak Frites and Fillet, cooked perfectly. One of my fellow diners loved her Tuna Nicoise Salad. Parking is a bit of a challenge, but it is doable because Django is not located in a cramped part of downtown Des Moines.

Went to Django for happy hour. It's from 4-close. No place does that. They have select items and…read moredrinks discounted and it's well worth it. The place was busy when we arrived around 5 and got a spot at the bar. Our bartender was also our waiter but did a great job doing both. Oysters were great. Our dirty martini was extra dirty like I wanted. The Brussel sprouts are crispy and flavorful with awesome dipping sauce. The charcuterie board had meats and cheeses, olives and jam. Very good. There are many more items to choose from during happy hour, but this was all my date and I could consume that night. Plus one more martini. Highly recommend going during the happy hour special.
