“I like Fairway the only thing is is I’ve had a few bad experiences with their produce not just a few quite a few other than that the place is clean and always never has boxes stacked up to put on the shelf everyone’s very polite and helpful”
“This place has been around for awhile. They're pretty well known for their sandwiches which I learned from my Des Moines based family that visit here as a tradition. I haven't tried the sandwiches yet.
I've gone there several times for their grocery store, as they have quality products imported from Italy and Graziano packaged foods. I typically shop for pastas and pasta sauces here. I like their frozen raviolis and they package and sell bulk olives at a price that's better than other area grocery stores.”
“Excellent selection, quality, and service. I enjoy visiting with Nick about different cuts of meats, their new creations, and how to prepare them. We now order quarter beef here as well and I like how they include other local businesses.”
“I stopped in once while visiting Des Moines and was so grateful for the healthy selection of good quality meats! The staff was very welcoming, didn’t make me feel rushed, and were so helpful with sharing information about cuts and sourcing and quality. Everything in the store seems super trustworthy and clean and I had a delicious Delmonico steak last night :) thank you!”
“Mostly famous family owners Market with prices So So No up,no down, Also security from Des Moines Sheriff Department to keeping protection to customers. On Historic Oak Park Mall.”
“My wife and I love to go to this place just to see what we can find. We are from the Caribbean Trinidad and Tobago so this is the closest thing. We can find an ethnic food store that has the cilantro or also known as Shadocbenny. We also like to get the Boba tea on the restaurant inside. They also have a nice vegetarian Vietnamese food.”

“I can't speak to the grocery store itself, but the haunted house in the basement is fantastic! Hasn't changed much over the years, but it is hard to improve on perfection. Narrow hallways and crawl spaces. Near complete darkness with helpful, dim lights here and there. Jump scares tastefully done!”
“Salmon was the best I've purchased and ate in Des Moines! So fresh and bursting with flavor! Highly recommend, not only their seafood, but quality meat available also! Service with a smile too! Will definitely be back.”
