Reviews for Railroad Bill's Dining Car in Des Moines, IA
This used to be one of our favorite places. The vegan options have always been delicious. Unfortunately, this morning we... received our food with a plastic food prep glove in the sauce. Accidents happen but do better. The experience sadly ruined ourappetite for this once enjoyed restaurant. This is a serious health concern! ???????? Read more
Didn't really know this place existed so wasn't really expecting a lot. The atmosphere is that of an old train depot that is... connected to an antique store. The food is straight forward with not a lot of frills. Our food came out quickly, hot, andcorrect. In fact the meat was a little over cooked but not burnt, they just need to turn their grill down a little bit. We didask for a side of ranch but the pre-packaged ones they gave us were expired so we didn't get to use them. All in all the foodwas delicious but absolutely no frills. I plan on coming back to try their lunch menu. Read more
The food is great and comes out quick. I really like the antiques next door. Great place all around.
The wait to get food was long. The steak was overcooked. The scramble egg doesn't look appetititive. Okay place for old fashion... breakfast but won't be my top choice. The omelet was good. Read more
Brunch time was a bit busy. Food was cold when served and brought only after we asked the waiter to check on our order. Poor... service. Self service for coffee and even water. They only had plastic cutlery (not because of COVID). Wouldn't go back again. Read more
Vegan food and trains?? Sign me up! But seriously the food was outstanding and the staff was awesome. It is one of the better... vegan breakfast foods I have eaten. They aren't an all vegan restaurant but they have an incredible vegan menu that isaffordable, filling, and will make your taste buds do a little happy dance. Definitely worth a stop. Read more
We were seated promptly. Staff was friendly and helpful. The restaurant building was pretty neat to look around in. I had an... omelet, potatoes and toast. My food was hot and very good. Large portions for a reasonable price. Read more
We were the only ones in that had not gotten food. I ordered biscuits and gravy and my husband ordered an omelet. We got our... food within 15 minutes and noticed that the home fries were burnt. My gravy looked like water. I took one bite and the biscuitwas not cooked. I cut another piece to have my husband try and there was hair in the gravy. Staff members were all sitting downvisiting with each other and never came to check on us. We were so discouraged and hope This doesn't happen to someone else. Read more
