Reviews for The Other Place Clive in Clive, IA
Whilst passing through Des Moines, The Other Place happened to be a convenient stop for a Sunday afternoon meal. It happened to... be a Sunday when the KC Chiefs were playing and the place was hopping ? which means LOUD. Fortunately we got seated in asemi-quiet alcove and we still enjoyed our meal in spite of the noise. We ordered a couple beers. If you are into darkerbeers, this isn?t the place to go, I ended up trying a canned stout that was OK. We ordered a Buffalo Chicken pizza whicharrived in good time and reasonably hot. The ?problem? is I don?t know what I think of their crust. It?s definitely not thincrust, and not deep dish, and not cracker. The dough tasted salt-less, and I?m thinking there isn?t any oil of any sort in thedough as it bakes to taste like a fluffy center, cracker bottom piece of Matzoh. Strange, and I?ve had all sorts of great,mediocre and bad pizzas ? this is the first time for anything of the kind. There was plenty of cheese and a good helping ofchicken, along with buffalo sauce, making it basically a ?white? pizza. It was good, if different, but I doubt I would returnagain if we were locals. Staff were friendly and helpful. Price was appropriate for the setting. Read more
Great Subs and Clubs - Plus PIZZA - enjoyed the roast turkey sub and honey ham club. We like a good Hamburger Pizza and this one... hit the spot. Thanks to Kati for taking care of us. Read more
Chill atmosphere. The chip & dip trio was a great appetizer, all 3 dips (salsa, queso & spinach) were full of flavor. The food... came out in a decent time but it took a while for our waiter to check in & had to be found after waiting for over 20 min to askfor our check. Give our waiter some credit that it got busy and he seemed to have a lot of tables! So I can't say if that'snormal. My husband had the taco pizza that was a special and greatly enjoyed it. Would recommend it for a low key family orcouple dinner/lunch. A place you can wear the comfy clothes. Read more
I've fallen in love with The Other Place. They have a great staff, really good pizza & wings, the set up is great for those who... want to either dine in or sit at the bar, plus they have a patio! Plenty of TVs showing most if not all current sports games.Their music selection is also awesome! Read more
Appetizer: sampler. Chicken tenders, onion rings, mushrooms, and mozzarella sticks. All were absolutely delicious. Taco pizza,... it was delicious had a little spice it. Red Velvet cake for dessert, also delicious. Read more
The pizza (maui) was ok but the crust had no flavor and the pineapple tasted like warm beer.
I think every IPA drinker will say the same. "IPA's aren't really that good, but I still love drinking them and I can't really... explain why". Well to start the Des Moines IPA was actually good! First one I can actually say I loved the flavor. A littlestunned excepting nothing more I ordered the Spinich and artichoke dip to snack on. It was top notch. It felt high quality. Didthey serve it out of a bag? I don't really know, but it tastes like they ground up all the ingredients themselves. It was thickand layered. Absolutely so good. I would go out of my way to come back just for a spinach and artichoke dip, and to me that'samazingly funny. Read more
Had the buffalo chicken salad and roasted turkey avocado sandwich. Sandwich was massive and had great flavor. The salads buffalo... chicken was really good but was odd flavor paired with the salad. Large selection of local craft and domestic beers. Great placeto watch a sporting event and enjoy a brew! Read more
