The Des Moines Register's "Datebook"

PRESS

"The staff at Django serve their authentic selves - charming, intelligent, caring. As helpful, professional and menu-savvy as any crew in town, these fine folks could put bags of fast food in front of us and we would have left happy." - Des Moines Register, "Datebook," November 27, 2008
 
"Django can be both special occasion as well as everyday - it has a wonderfully varied menu. It's slogan: 'All French - No Attitude' describes it well." - Des Moines Register, "Datebook," July 3, 2008
 
"The Roast Chicken - a $14 revelation - brought exquisite touches of tiny sweet pearl onions, startlingly bright-orange baby carrots and, most notably, creamy and ultra-smooth pureed potatoes (a treat in our culinary epoch of 'smashed' potatoes). Sauteed foie gras jiggled atop beef tenderloin medallions for a classic take on Tournedos Rossini." - Des Moines Register "Datebook," May 29, 2008
 
"With the 100 percent French Django restaurant opening in the Hotel Fort Des Moines, swanky Josephs Jewelers set to open across the street and classy condos nearby, 10th Street is starting to feel like a slice of Paris's Right Bank." - Des Moines Register "DateBook," May 29, 2008
 
"Django is a new French restaurant with the tagline 'all French, no attitude.' I found that to be true. The menu has all your standard French fare: omelets, crepes, tarts and burgers with crispy frites. And while the waitstaff dresses in button-up shirts and ties, they were friendly and open to our requests to make a couple of dishes vegetarian." - Juice, May 27, 2008

"If you're new to French food, you can sample it here without going too far out of your comfort zone or too far out of your budget." - Juice, May 27, 2008
