I so love this place. I came here for my birthday dinner with a friend and I love this place. The atmosphere was great along with the food and service.
Best Sunday brunch hands down. From the mashed potato bar to the taco bar to the grilled cheese station you can’t go wrong. They also have a whole room of standard breakfast fare . It is worth the $30!
Get ready for a specially made grilled cheese . Choose from tons of cheeses and toppings like sauerkraut , bacon and even spicy Cheetos. And don’t forget to pick up a cup of tomato soup for dunking. Read more
Pan-seared chicken with Parmesan cream sauce is to die for. Large portion - you can split it with someone. Also try the chocolate torte for dessert . Absolutely amazing!
Happy hour until 6 every weekday... Brunch buffet with Bloodies and mimosas on the weekends... The food... The atmosphere... The STAFF ROCKS! Can you tell I really like this place? Highly recommended!
Granddaughter loves their Mac and Cheese but we always order an extra plate to cool it down from the bowl it comes in. And she loves the Birthday Cake for dessert
Seared tuna salad is wonderful. Just a hint of wasabi and a sweet soy combo dressing . The tuna was light and VERY fresh! Must have again.
Katelin is the greatest Server here. Ask for her and she will make sure ur happy all the way through ur meal! She is the best server I have had here! :)
Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner , all you can eat buttermilk fried chicken , mashed potatoes , and biscuits . Every Monday night. Not something to miss out on.
The photo on the wall was the taken just days before the famed "massacre" of 1937 Pope Leo IV had just declared sodomy legal. Outraged farmers stormed the local papal college killing 73 scribes inside
Their seared tuna and their hamburgers are both great; choose either and you won't go wrong!
Coming for brunch ? Expect a short wait or make a reservation for this bustling buffet brunch . Try the grilled cheese bar and $14 bottomless bloody mary or mimosas http://dmreg.co/weNg9z Read more
Great menu - hard to choose one thing. Gnocchi was spicy & delicious and enjoyed a Moscow Mule .
Winner winner chicken dinner all you can eat Monday night was fantastic!! Can't wait to go back!!
The giant mural of the cars is a photo taken in the same space as Americana. It was taken in 1937 when the space was a car dealership .
The hoisin BBQ is amazing, get a side with just about anything on the menu, especially if it has pineapple (or just spread on the grilled pineapple side)
Brunch on the weekends...all you can eat and unlimited mimosas or bloody marys for $25.
Winner, winner, chicken dinner every Monday night. All you can eat buttermilk fried chicken , mashed potatoes , and biscuits .
Love the strawberry bitch martini and the brownie Bacon sundae ... Not together! Also try the crab rangoon appetizer .
Oscar de la Americana is fantastic. 8oz filet with crab meat , asparagus hash , Cheddar mashed potatoes and a brown butter holindaise sauce.
Modern restaurant great for all types of people, Des Moines needs more places like this!!
Brunch with an unlimited Mimosa or Bloody Mary bar until 2:30! Make sure to make reservations if you have a larger party.
Grilled cheese bar at Bombshell Breakfast..yum! It may seem boring, but the Americana burger is my favorite.
Great happy hour prices - the red blend they have by the glass is good, and try the roasted artichoke app
Get the Mac and cheese with truffle oil . It's heavenly.
Make sure to try the Monday night special ! All you can eat fried chicken , plus all the fixings!
Best damn burger in town . And don't pass up the sundae if you still have room for dessert .
Crab Rangoon dip is purdy amazing! Has a little kick to it.
Very tasty shrimp and grits ; not sure if it's available year round.
Great service and wonderful atmosphere for a group event .

The Thai Tacos .....are......so good! Can't go wild with either meat.
Ordered Truffled Mac and Cheese and Roasted Chicken with Mashed Potatoes ... I will return!
The tiki burger is amazing! They also give you a complimentary mini cake on your birthday!
Weekend brunch is one of the best in the city
Awesome owner awesome staff appreciate & acknowledge the wait staff for all they do.
Sunday brunch and all around good selection of food.
Best bar/restaurant to enjoy a signature drink and watch the snow fall over Des Moines.
Soup was amazing but curry was a bit disappointing (too heavy sauce but no spice/flavor). Nice atmosphere, great service, will come back!
love the drinks, amazing paninis and great atmosphere. everyone is super friendly and nice
The Sebastiani Merlot is delicious (and pretty strong). The brie appetizer is awesome too! #wine #J120
Try the Miso Noodles . Trust me, you will LOVE them!!
Awesome brunch . Thought it was a bit spendy tho.
The bottomless bloody marys and mimosas are great. The food on the buffet is ok but nothing special.
Americana martini is very yummy!!!!!
If Albert is behind the bar ask for a Hey Girl! But you have to say it super femme, he'll know....
The brunch and Bloody Mary bar are great!
Try the Water - Try the #water. It's amazing! #thinciowa
We must not be as big of "bombshells " as we thought. We have been moved to the bar stockroom.
