I had a lovely mini trip to Des Moines! A full day of self care. Unfortunately I had the best steak of my life, which is just awful because any future steak will never be the same. I had a Ribeye topped with lions mane mushrooms and asparagus, with a cup of lobster chowder. Omg on top they started with fresh warm homemade bread. The server was Top notch and incredible at his job. If I could give this restaurant a 10 I would!
My son took me for my birthday and it was an amazing experience from the atmosphere yo the service level from every person we were in contact with. The food was outstanding! They gave me a personalized birthday menu, the table was set for my birthday and a complimentary full dessert of my choosing. We left full, happy and with lots of left overs!!
Wonderful dinner with my son and my partner. The Chilean Sea Bass was my favorite and the Death by Chocolate Cake was decadent. My son enjoyed his dry aged steak and his Virgin Aphrodite. My partner has a delicious after dinner cocktail, made with root beer. It was a wonderful time. Our server, Kaylee was attentive and personable. Oh! I would also recommend the mushroom pan roast as a side dish, by the way. It was a great meal, I'm glad we decided to go.
I was treated here on a trip, and I must have tasted some of the best, most perfectly cooked steaks ever. We started with a shrimp cocktail and raw oysters, which were both amazing. Our entrees were accompanied by brussel sprouts and the hash browns. This establishment is on the higher end as far as pricing, but also food and service. Highly recommend.
Absolutely, amazing staff. We were there for our anniversary and didn't tell them, and they made it special anyways. Our waitress was honestly the best waitress I've had in a really long time. She made us laugh. And she made us feel like we were her best friend. The food was to die for. We had tons of leftovers, and they were still amazing the next day!
Wonderful restaurant. Excellent food and service. The prime rib was among the best I have ever had. I'll definitely go back if I'm in Des Moines again.
This place is phenomenal. I was brought here on the final evening of my trip and it did not disappoint. We sat in a booth near the bar and it was decorated in an old fashioned, cushy way. They had a jazz rendition of my heart will go on in the bathroom. Great ambiance. The food was absolutely delicious. We had a bit of everything: a fried lobster tail, oysters, a wonderfully flavored strawberry salad, some lobster macaroni, brussels, some delicious waygu, and perfectly seasoned carrots. One of my party had the lamb which was said to be perfect. They also had me try the souffle which was so tender and tasty. Honorable mention to the delicious bread! Our server was very helpful with suggestions for flavors and was friendly and competent. If you’re in the Des Moines area and in the market for a good steakhouse, you will be in the right place at 801 Chophouse.
My wife and I have visited 801 on several occasions. The food was amazing as usual. This experience was without a doubt the best, thanks to Michael. He was extremely professional and paid attention to detail. He definitely made this visit more enjoyable. We will ask for him every time we visit from now on!!!! He was AMAZING!!!! It was a bit loud, but that isn't a negative mark towards the company itself.
