Reviews for The Stuffed Olive Des Moines in Des Moines, IA
WOW! So many great drinks to choose from! It was recommend to us by a local who said “there’s a whole book of martini’s”... and she wasn’t kidding! I’ve never really been a Martini fan but this place was fantastic!! Ended up here on a Monday nightand the special was buy one martini, get one free. So naturally, I ended up trying multiple martini’s and I LOVED each one!Can’t wait to go back and try more!! Read more
Only come here for the martinis! As far as food goes the menu is to small and the items remind me of bar food. I was looking for... dinner and this was not the spot. But I found some of the best martinis ???? I’ve ever had and for a bogo. Can you believe it.Keep the specials coming ???????????????? Read more
Just a quick detail...this place is for socializing. They have tables and couches to sit at as well as a long bar. The Martini... menu was huge the food menu not so much. With that being said we ordered the Risotto Croquettes and they were delicious, themarinara with them was a little chunky but had a good flavor that went well with the appetizer. For our meal I ordered theBrisket sandwich and my spouse ordered the Chicken and Spinach Risotto. The brisket wasn't bad but wasn't off the fire and myfries were cold. My wife enjoyed the Risotto. Service was good and they were very attentive it just took a long time to getanything be it food or drink. My wife had the Tiramasu, Espresso and the Cucumber Melon martinis and enjoyed them all, which itis a martini bar. Good for socializing but can get extremely noisy the busier it gets. Read more
The review is for the food and service only. No drinks ordered. The food was average and bland. The server we had was working... the bar and so the service was average. This seems like a popular spot for those who drink. We ordered the Grilled Salmon Tacos,Chicken and Spinach Risotto and Parmesan & Oil fries. I would not recommend the Risotto and you don’t have to be Gordon Ramseyto know that. Tacos were okay, fries were just fries. I would not go back to this restaurant. It’s not bad, but it’s notgood.

It is my absolute favorite place downtown to grab dinner and drinks. They specialize in martinis (with 100+ on the menu) but... also have other cocktails, wine and beer. Walking distance to Wells Fargo arena and civic center for concerts orshows. Favorites: Martinis = red wave, espresso, and the best dirty martini I’ve ever had. Food = salmon salad, chickenskewers and spinach and artichoke dip! Read more
Enjoyed Stuffed Olive for the first time for date night. They had over 100 martinis to choose from! The menu looked delicious,... can’t wait to go back to be able to order the food! Great service from the host and bar tender. Loved the atmosphere.Definitely recommend! Read more
The atmosphere is very decent being apart of two clubs in one with one being upstairs and this restaurant actually being... downstairs they depend on the music from upstairs to saturate the atmosphere downstairs which doesn't always fit the mood Thefood is greatly overpriced compared to the taste I would seriously have a conversation with the head chef on what is actuallyCajun seasoning to Bland. pepper is a spice not a seasoning a lot of places do not understand that. Go for what it worth butonce you spend the money you would never go back Read more
HUGE martini list - ranging from very traditional, to interesting variations on traditional martinis and cocktails, to very... creative dessert martinis. We tried several appetizers - none blew us away but all were decent quality. We particularly enjoyedthe shishito peppers and bruschetta. The tuna app was good but not a ton of flavor. Service was fantastic when we were there. Read more
