        Service ruins the place!

        I think the owner's have made enough money.The whole inside need's a overhaul! Staff and owner's are just walking through their job's.I'm looking for a new place out onthe "west side".

        Best catfish in DSM

        Considering that the catfish is almost a native, it's surprising how few places in Des Moines serve it. Waterfront is the best. The fish is hot, crisp, and flaky, the side dishes are great, and the wait staff know their fish. The wait can be a bit long; go early in the evening or have a quick snack at home first. Great food, great prices, great place.
