About this business

The entire bar and restaurant is designed in dark, elegant wood with very stylish and comfortable furniture, chairs and booths--even the requisite fireplace--giving it a private club-like feeling.

The owner, Brett Anderson, (a lawyer, but we won't hold that against him) has done an excellent job of designing and furnishing the restaurant and has obviously spared no expense. The name Vern's is a tribute to his late brother. A... read more

We love this restaurant and frequent it often. Best prime rib around! The only complaint I have is the accommodations for waiting for a table. We were smart to call ahead to get our name on the "list", and when we arrived around 6:15 pm., the wait for people who didn't call ahead was 1-1/2 hours. The food is definitely worth the wait, but feel something could be done to make the wait a little more comfortable.

A group of us came down for the weekend to enjoy a nice getaway at Adventureland, little did we know that we were going to eat at one of the best places around! We had the BEST prime rib ever and the service was great! Our waitress was amazing and we were VERY pleased! We will most definitely be back here to eat next time we are around Des Moines! I would HIGHLY suggest this place to eat!
