Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Des Moines

Every time we go, we make ourselves pick different items off the menu. And every time, it's perfection.

Been here a few times and always order the same items. The fried chicken appetizer and pork belly entree has been stellar each time. My husband gets the coulotte steak each time and complains to me every time that it's not barely warm. For a $40 entree, that's disappointing. Doubt he's game to go to Sophon again. Lovely restaurant and great service though

First time eating here with a friend. We both ordered the chicken pot pie at $ 24. Portion was large for a lunch, but we at it all. Good amount of white and dark meat chicken in traditional sauce, topped and baked with a round of puff pastry. Quiet, reminded me of an older time diner, but larger. Affable service, tasty food, and large portions added up to a successful lunch. There were also salads and sandwiches, but we chose a hot item. At $24, I feel that is a bit steep despite it being tasty. At $18, we’d have declared it a newly-found meeting place for lunch.

We had a date night and it was wonderful! Food, service and ambience was great!

A wonderful Christmas Day experience! Snacks and drinks. The food remains excellent and the drinks perfect. The wait staff are kind and entertaining.
