“ Had a great time here. The breakfast pizza was delicious as well as their two specials. The mimosa was also amazing. We did discover breakfast is served until 1pm due to them having a small kitchen ”
“ Arrived during brunch hours so it was breakfast menu or Pizza at 1230 pm on Saturday... we originally wanted sandwiches but was informed we had to order breakfast or pizza... wife and I chose the French dip pizza. Low expectations but mind blowing results. This pizza was not only unique but so flavorful. Highly recommend ”
“ Funky pizza joint in the East Village in Des Moines. Pizza is delicious. Great wings. Onion rings are wonderful. Wide selection of beer, with Midwest breweries well represented. A great choice for a meal. ”
“ Every time we go to Truman’s, the service is absolutely exceptional. The manager, waitstaff, and especially the bartenders always go above and beyond to make us feel welcome. I’m completely in love with their cheeseballs. Honestly, everything I’ve tried on the menu so far has been fantastic. Truman’s has become our go-to spot, and we can’t recommend it enough! ”
“ Had the cheese balls and the Tuscan Steak Pizza. The service was attentive and food arrived fast. The place was packed watching March Madness, but you wouldn’t know it by how seamlessly each table was waited on. Pizza can be a hit or miss for me, and I would return to try their other styles because of the crust alone. It was light and not too thick (you can eat multiple slices and not feel sick) and cooked with a slight crisp but not overdone. I would recommend trying out the food and service at Truman’s Tavern. ”
“ Solid food and service! Zero complaints! Wings were really good and so was the pizza! ”
“ This is an amazing place for food, cocktails, music, and gatherings for all, we love it here! ”
“ We learned they have live outside music on Fridays from 5-8pm and on Sundays 2-5pm. The service was phenomenal. We were a party of 8 and sat right away. The waitress we had was fast and stayed on to if our drinks. The pizza we ordered was delicious. We had the Hawaiian and the all meat (don't recall the name of it). HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!! ”
