Helping to train a new person. That's right, we were asked if we mind if the trainee could take care of us. It's all good, what better way to learn a field like this. Not sure how long he had been at it, but he did very well. Although we had to remind him of a couple things we asked for, but I believe was given to many tables while he was learning. Food was as ordered and as expected. I must say this time was better then in the past. Not that the past visits were bad, it just depends on the staff and time do day with this location. Notice big changes on the menu, especially the prices. Seriously, $3.25 for a soda or tea. Another big deal with the menus, they're all not the same. My wife's menu, had higher prices. Talking about 4 to 5 dollars difference than mine. Although when we got our bill it was with the prices list on my menu. So did we get a menu not wasn't supposed to be out yet? And is this a sign that the prices are going to increase? Who knows!

Ordered country skillet & husband ordered omelette with a side of fruit & corned beef hash. When food came I received 2 eggs & sausage patties my husband didn't have fruit or hash. When I told the person delivering food that's not what I ordered his response was yes that's what you ordered. The waitress came & asked what was wrong. I told her I received the wrong thing & my husband was missing fruit & hash. She took my plate & said she'd fix it. Didn't take long to get my skillet & husbands fruit but still no hash so we reminded them once again. Shortly after the manager came over to apologize & let us know they she'd be taking some off of our check. So for the 4th time I told someone we were still missing a side of hash. It came very quickly after that. They ended up taking 75% off. While I appreciate they tried to fix everything not sure that I'll be back soon.

Dining at Irina's was a real treat! Irina herself greeted us at the door with her warm charm and beautiful Russian accent. Our server, Troy, was very attentive and knowledgeable. Their selection of vodka's is 2nd to none that I've seen, and the bar has a great cocktail selection. My date and I were very satisfied with the food. It was well prepared and appropriate sized servings. The crab cake appetizer was prepared and presented nicely. Our entrees were perfect as well. I can't wait to return and try the mussels cioppino and chicken Kiev. And the end of the evening Troy treated us to complimentary Russian style vodka shots to commemorate our first visit to the restaurant. To sum it all up, I had fun! This is now on my list of go to Des Moines eateries.

Friendly staff, great atmosphere and the food is delicious!

very good place ! all service, food & prices.

This restaurant had amazing food at an amazing location. The service was fast and unintrusive, yet still responsive. The option to sit in either the lounge (bar type area) or dinning room (traditional sit-down style) was very welcome and made the experience phenomenal. I would recommend this to anyone in the area no questions asked.

Always great food and super service.

Always Fast. Always Fresh. Prices have climbed quite a bit in the last two years though.
