Terrific bar that provided a great old fashion as well as a vodka tonic to help enliven our spirits. It was the first night in Des Moines and we loved this restaurant that had been suggested to us by family members. Then came dinner which was also outstanding. Our server (can't remember his name) was terrific and had great suggestions. We highly recommend this place and would have gone back but ran out of time in Des Moines.

It was over $100 for two entrées for an appetizer and one cocktail Server, it was an attentive had to ask for more water three times Fire alarms were going off. No one approached us to explain what was going on seemed very little concerned for the patrons. Will not be back
Mulberry Street TavernResponded on 10 September 2024
Good morning, We apologize for the fire alarms, as well as the lack of attention your table received during your visit. Thank you for taking the time to inform us of these issues, as we will use them as a training tool in our ongoing pursuit of being able to exceed all guest expectations. Sincerely, Mulberry Street Tavern
