Park Street Kitchen & Bar

This was room service for hotel so no ambiance but service was pretty good albeit a tad slow, which ended up being ok for me.The food was bland, bland, bland.. had a pizza and burger. Burger was charred too much and dry. Pizza was just so blah.The food didn't get me sick and was edible, which is the only reason it gets a couple stars, but not something I would seek out by any means. Looking forward to getting home - traveling for work sucks.Oh and pricing is steep for what you get. If you can, try and find an alternative in downtown and I suggest getting your food before 5. If you just need something for your stomach, are not too picky and not price sensitive then this is probably ok for you.

Ordered the chicken tenders and didn't realize it didn't come with fries. Because usually at restaurants it does come with fries and thought that was interesting. I should've asked.Debated if I should've ordered a side of fries but there was so much chicken I definitely would not have had room for fries. The bartender was very attentive as I chose to eat at the bar. I was the only one there at that time. I think it was her manager and some higher up that were telling her on what they wanted rearranged and all this stuff....but I was ready to check out. I didn't want to interrupt so I just waited patiently. Bartender apologized. Even though I was the only one there, I felt like they could've let her let me check out or let her check up on me...instead of keep talking to her and ignorning me, I know they know I was there. I came from the gym and had my water bottle so I just filled the glass once I was out of the water she gave me.

I have eaten here twice in the last year - each time before the morning session of a convention. The service has always been impossibly slow, the food is poorly made and mediocre tasting at best, and insanely overpriced. Won't be back for a third visit.

I gave this place 3 stars mainly off their breakfast. But gave it also 3 stars because the dinner brought up the breakfast. The dinner her was very good. I had the chicken and sausage pasta! Very nicely grilled and good flavor. I wish it has a little more flavor. Maybe more garlic and offer fresh parmisan with it. Perhaps fresh ground pepper. Daily breakfast buffet-- $22 dollars of soggy eggs, wet sausage patties under cooked, turkey sausage over cooked and hard. Best thing going is mini quiche and the yogurt and fruit parfait! But once again at least $5 over priced. I do stay in hotels often. So i do understand the breakfast buffet end of things. Service is good and the ambiance is very nice. I say hit it up for dinner and perhaps lunch

There is a very nice ambiance. Definitely not what you would expect from a hotel restaurant. Sadly the food was not at the same level, although the prices were. Not to say the food was bad but it was way overpriced and very limited. The service was good but not great. The food came out fast but it took awhile to get the orders in.

I came here twice this week--once for dinner and once for breakfast. For dinner the other evening, colleagues and I sat at the hotel bar and were able to order from the regular restaurant menu, which was very convenient. I started with the smoked tomato soup, which had these delicious, ooey gooey little bites of grilled cheese sandwich atop it. I followed this up with the 8 oz filet mignon prepared medium. It wasn't quite the texture I had anticipated, which was a bit disappointing, and the potatoes were just OK. They just tasted like boiled potatoes with a little salt and not much else. They have a nice cocktail selection and ample seating inside. We were split between two servers, one of whom was reasonably attentive and the other of whom was fairly gruff in the beginning (he was busy) but warmed up throughout the evening.On the whole, great venue within the hotel. The steak wasn't anything to write home about, but this was preferable to the other options available at the time.

Went out for a work event and was pleasantly surprised. We had all the appetizers and desserts. Everyone enjoyed their meal and we had pizzas, crab cakes, pork tacos, salad, and a panini. Normally, I wouldn't think of good food at a hotel but it was all great. The desserts were delightful.

The food was boring and overpriced. I get that it's in a hotel, but oof, don't sell it like it is a nice restaurant if you're going to serve small standard breakfast sandwiches and omelets for $16. There was nothing that would entice me to return. If I had to stay at this hotel, I'd eat elsewhere or just go to the gas station for snacks.

This is located inside the Hilton Hotel in downtown Des Moines. I went here on a Friday night, the building is new so it's modern and clean. I don't have much to say about the place itself but it wasn't very busy at all and I'm not sure if many people know about it unless you're a guest at the Hilton... Maybe a signage will help.For being not so busy, it took a while for our waitress to come to ask if we wanted anything else to drink besides water and then finally get our orders in. The menu is small but the food we had was actually good, we started with meatballs and calamari and then our entrees came. I had the Wood Oven Half Chicken that came with farro and swiss chard. Chicken did come out juicy and what I typically judge is how a place cook a steak. My cousin got the Hanger Steak and she ordered medium rare, it did come out medium rare so good on them. I feel the place is fine but nothing really amazing. There are many places in the area that I would suggest over this. Maybe down the road they'll have a bigger menu and I would go back but currently it's a restaurant that seems to be for hotel guests that don't want to leave the hotel.

Giving 3 stars for the staff and the staff only. I would give 5. However the food was terrible. Charred pesto Alfredo was not good. Tasted like jarred Alfredo sauce and flavorless pesto (that seems difficult to mess up) even with salt and pepper flavorless. The chicken was quality. For 18$ no good. Get food elsewhere.
