Reviews for Waveland Cafe in Des Moines, IA
I am hoping to meet Jason Momoa someday lol I love it here.
It's your basic local diner that serves decent breakfast, gets you in and out quickly and is a dependable go-to in times of a... need for quick, decent meal. The coffee is hot, the pancakes are quite good, and the bacon and eggs are exactly what you expectthem to be. This is a no frills place. It's old and there is no trendy decor--just a good meal served quick and hot. Read more
Always busy. Super friendly. Amazing food. For sure home cooked comfort food. The artwork on the front of the building windows... changes pretty often. Always super colorful and creative. Not a large place by any means. If you show up on a saturday after 9am, expect a wait. No waiting area... Standing room only or outside waiting. So worth it. Read more
Small, food is good, friendly and great service, have to go early or wait in line

This is a good place for breakfast. Omelette was delicious. Place was busy the whole time we were there. The hashbrowns were... cooked perfectly not greasy at all. Parking is an issue here. You may have to slide down a side street. Read more
I WENT THERE AGAIN 04/12/2022 See bottom of this review. Waveland Cafe has a variety of tasty breakfast offerings. I was here... for the Eggs Benedict . My wife and I went here so I could try their "Bennys" . I have a "top ten" list for these. After ourvisit I rated these "Bennys" as #1 out of 10. My rating is based on 3 weights : 70% = taste 20% = presentation 10% = price Thedrawback for the "Bennys" is they are only available on Tuesday. ?? Continues to be a 5 star rating and number one on my topten list. Read more
Wonderful, friendly atmosphere, amazing food! I googled best places to eat breakfast in Des Moines, and this popped up. We... came in and had to wait...so we knew the food was going to be great! No disappointment here! Absolutely wonderful experience. We live in central NE, and I am so glad we made this extra stop! The staff was bubbly, friendly, and super fun. I'm definitelycoming back!
