Restaurants near Cedarbrook Lodge

Not worth the special trip if you aren't staying at the hotel already. Parking was very unclear for dinner guests; we needed to ask valet what to do. The parking lot is far opposite end from the restaurant, so you either have to walk all the way around the hotel's exterior, or navigate all the interior hallways to find it. Our reservation was meaningless; we waited 20 min to even be acknowledged by the single staff member at the restaurant. She then sent us over to have dinner in the bar because she was too busy to serve us! Their saving grace was that the food was tasty, and the server in the bar was nicer. The price was highfor what we got, but it's a hotel restaurant. We won't be back unless actually a guest in the hotel and have limited options.

Our server, Haylie, was great. She was very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. The ribs, sides, and carrot cake were delicious.

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving buffet there with my family. It was very easy to make reservations through OpenTable. Copperleaf is location in the Cedarbrook Lodge. Beautiful location... Even though there were a number of people dining there at the same time, Everything was organized and well planned. Lots of food options available at the buffet. I particularly liked all the salad options they had. The Thanksgiving turkey was perfect. Our table was in a quiet dining area close to windows that overlooked the hotel grounds. The staff were very helpful. They would be the main reason I would return. It felt like a very special place.

I was able to snag a last minute reservation for the thanksgiving meal and it was a great experience. I was seated promptly. Service was excellent and the food was very delicious. The icing on the cake was my seat was in perfect view of a basketball game that I wanted to watch. Thanks for a perfect solo thanksgiving meal.

Hadn’t been to Anthony’s Des Moines in years. Great place to meet friends and catch up.
