Welcome to MetroGuide.Network's Des Moines DiningGuide, a directory of restaurants and related restaurant information for Metropolitan Des Moines, Iowa. Use MetroGuide's DiningGuide service to find Des Moines restaurants by location or cuisine.

With Meredith Willson -- composer of The Music Man -- as a native son, Iowa and its capital Des Moines have plenty more to toot their horns about, and that includes dining options ranging from Asian enclaves to burger joints, and steakhouses. The Pizza Oven in nearby Johnston nets raves for good pies and comfy décor, while Cosi Cucini Italian Grill casts a romantic spell over patrons partaking of innovative cuisine and more than 30 wines available by the glass. Chains include the usuals found across America, plus regional franchises such as the 5 & Diner and Buzzard Billy’s, the latter known for Chicken Czarina and Voodoo Tuna. Des Moines also boasts of places like Fifth Street Fountain, for nostalgia packed banana splits, and the Drunken Goat Café, known for specialty sandwiches like Moo Blue or Spanish Fig, and a gelato case jammed with enough flavors to make an Italian village proud. Yes, there’s more to Des Moines dining than tender beef and scalloped corn.

DiningGuide Des Moines is part of MetroGuide Des Moines, offering guides to shopping, hotels, entertainment and more for the entire region.
