Austin (I think that was her name) and Gina were great. Tenderloin was amazing and a quart of the chili might not have been enough to bring home. Will be back everytime we come to Des Moines!!! Our 1st DDD destination.

My 13 yr old is the tenderloin critique and he absolutely loved it. Said it was the best he’s ever eaten. The chili is seriously good. Awesome customer service. We will be back the next time we are in Des Moines!

The chili dogs and chili were great, but the pork tenderloin was even better!

The pork tenderloin sandwich was a tough as shoe leather with very little flavor. I have hand better onion rings at fast food restaurants. If given another opportunity to eat at George’s I’d pass. �
