Reviews for The Chicken in West Des Moines, IA
We went the wrong way home on our way from Minneapolis to NW Arkansas. We were looking for a hometown place to eat and found... this place. A little bit of a wait to get our food, but it was sooo good. My daughter had the southwest chicken salad and I hadthe bang bang chicken tacos. We had the chicken egg rolls too. Everything was amazing! Glad we got lost and found this place. Read more
This is a perfect place food the best. No really outstanding. Put it like this I ordered my meal it was so good I had to try... 2nd. Great beer outstanding service. The only thing I could ask for is if they could open in Houston they'd make a killen. Thebartender did a very good job I don't know his name ticket only had pm bar. You all have a very very special place keep it up..if I could give 10 I would give 12. for how good it was..... Read more
Husband & I had a date night Sunday. We ate here for dinner before watching the lunar eclipse. Our server was Olivia & she was... awesome. She seemed very happy & like she enjoyed her job. Everything came out fast, hot & sooooo good. This was our first timehere & we will definitely be back. Read more
10/10 me and my family really enjoyed everything we got. Large portions so if you were to get the nachos by urself, I'd suggest... the half portion. Very filling, we all ended up getting to go boxes. We had an amazing waiter. Everything was very clean. For afamily of 5 and my mother ordering 2 alcoholic beverages, we paid about $85 no tip. Its definitely worth it and we all agreed tocome back!

Arrived at 11am on a Wednesday. Only a couple of tables occupied. Clean, rustic, chickeny decor. Mixture of high and low top... tables, booths, bar, and patio seating. A few TVs scattered around. Started with Voodoo shrimp. Had a nice kick. Then classicbreaded chicken sandwich with side of onion rings. It took quite awhile for service and my server was not overly attentive orpleasant. There was a young man serving that was killing it though! Wish I would have had him. The sandwich and onion rings hadway too much breading for my taste. So much that it overwhelmed everything and I didn't get the flavor of chicken or onions.Portion size was good- plenty for 2 meals if I would have liked it. I enjoyed a pop with my meal and the bill was $29 beforetip. Ouch. They do have some other things I would go to try, and on Wednesdays they do a BOGO on pizzas. By the time I left theplace was packed. Glad I had arrived early as it was a longish wait anyway. 2nd try on. Wednesday night. Arrived at 615- 20minute wait for a table. No worries. Had a beer while we waited. It was BOGO pizza so that's what we went with! Plus somedelicious cheese curds. Tried the Old Highway 5 pizza and the Bypass. Both good! Similar toppings. Either the pepperoni oranother meat had some fire to it which I liked and my dining companion did not. Very friendly and efficient staff. Whole pizzaleft to take home. Total was only $33!!! For cheese curds, 2 small pizzas, and a beer. Enough left for dinner tonight aswell. Short drive from Des Moines- maybe 15 minutes. Plenty of parking and handicap accessible interior. Neat decor.

Food is always delicious. My boyfriend and I love to go here for their Iowa hot chicken and Nashville chicken sliders. Decided... to try their nachos? we ordered a half order instead of the full order thinking it would be small.. but we were wrong, this wasHUGE lmao, no complaints though! Fries are okay. Drinks are great as well, service was great, & overall always a greatexperience. Thanks to our server tonight: Hannah G. Will be back! Read more
Very nimble service, our server was very hospitable and attentive. The vibes of this place is great! Highly recommend checking... The Chicken our. Nashville Chicken Tenders were great, but the Southwestern Eggrolls were just fine. I do wish there was morediversity in appetizer options. Read more
