Yum. Nothing pairs with spaghetti like great tunes . Head on over to Nitefall on the River , located at Simon Estes Amphitheater to see awesome concerts . Slightly Stoopid & Atmosphere perform 8/4.

Carson Stepka

The atmosphere of the restaurant and the employees provides a great reassuring feeling of being in your own home. The choices of meal options is seemingly endless. Also, the food is more than stellar!

Beer cheese sauce is great if you like beer . Salad bar has pasta salad & other things besides lettuce

Anthony O'Brien

If you can get the red gazebo seating it's perfect for 2 people and the pizza is amazing

Oliver Housman

The best choice for pasta is the Combination. I recommend the bow tie pasta with Pesto Cream and Beer Cheese .

Melissa B

I love mixing sauces! Hot naked & white clam are yummy together! Unlimited bowls !

Lance Beechwood

The beer cheese sauce is great, and a Des Moines institution.

Sandy Winn

I had the mushroom chicken Alfredo . Very good.

All you can pasta is always a plus. Also, don't get an appetizer- the salad bar is free with your meal.

Tim Fralix

Delicious Lasagna . Lots of soft drink choices.

Lindsay Johnson

They have a gluten free menu that's awesome! Try the pesto cream :)

Glenn Barnett

Incredible $$$ but everything taste the same and none of it good. Feel free to try spaghetti works, I left a 60% tip because people around me kept sending their food back. Service ✅ food was not.

Da Vinci Italian sodas are a must have. Over 20 choices plus free refills!

5 words: Kids Eat Free on Mondays!

Matthew Probst

Don't forget to use the downstairs bathroom

Shane Cherniss

Pop fountain is horrible. Food is always yummy. Don't let host try to set you by the salad bar or the kitchen when the place is not even busy. Also the ranch dressing taste like mayo

Matthew Probst

Don't forget to use the upstairs bathroom

Daniel Dunlap

Try the soup de jour
