Customer Reviews

I am from Sioux City where I think the wings from Bob Roes Point after are the best ever, surprisingly these were very close! I travel often and feel like I have tried wings in many different places. The wings at this place were great. We came in without a reservation with a large group (our bad) and the waitress still provided superb service. Couldn’t remember her name!

Wow, just wow. The chicken wings were absolutely amazing. Crispy with a creamy, smoky wing sauce that gives a nice heat to your lips but won’t send you running for the milk. The corn poppers were also delicious and 3 kinds of exile on tap means you’ll have a decent selection of beers. Our waitress was really great despite it being very crowded. Definitely a gem of a find with dive vibes but good for gatherings. If you’re looking for good wings in des moines, these are some of the best I’ve had.

Mel Samples

Gerri’s has the best wings in town. The service is sporadic – sometimes it’s great and other times, it’s iffy, but you dont care because the food is that good. TVs on the wall, music on the jukebox…it’s the Eastside at its greatest!
