Early Bird West Des Moines

It was packed but very easy to get on the wait list. Staff were friendly and food was very good.

Great first experience at Early Bird! We had a late Friday lunch and had most of the place to ourselves. Our server was helpful and prompt and the food was even better. We had the Banana Bread French Toast and a Combo Meal that had Cinnamon Roll Pancakes--both were fabulous!! We will return to try some of the other options on the menu.

The restaurant has a cozy feel and is very clean. Our waiter was knowledgeable and friendly. The food was very good. We had the Crab Rangoon which was made with real cream cheese, yum! They were creamy and very flavorful. The best ones I have had and the sauce that comes with them complements them well. The broth for my noodles also had good flavor and all ingredients were cook just right. Seafood was not rubbery.

Early Bird in West Des Moines is such a solid weekend breakfast spot. We had the Traveler’s Omelette and the Crab Rangoon Omelette, and both were full of flavor! The food and service are always consistently excellent. Highly recommend for a fun, reliable brunch stop!

While the wait was long, we were able to sit at the bar as soon as we walked in and I’m glad we chose to stay and eat there. The “Cinny-bobs” (first picture) were AMAZING. I cannot recommend them enough as an appetizer! I had the Churro Waffles for my meal and my sweet tooth was definitely overly satisfied between the two of these, but I don’t think I’d order anything different if I went again. The waffles were fluffy and slightly crispy on the outside and were perfect. Overall delicious food!
