Splash Seafood

“Had a blast, great food, great service, beautiful atmosphere.”

Splash has always been my go-to spot for seafood in Des Moines, but unfortunately today’s experience was disappointing compared to a year ago. The Kung Pao calamari and shrimp appetizer had far too much sauce and very little actual calamari and shrimp. The shell, which should have been crunchy and fresh, was soggy instead. The Chilean sea bass was an even bigger letdown — it had virtually no flavor. It was extremely crowded before a performance, and the staffing didn’t seem sufficient to handle the rush. A group of six couldn’t find space at the bar and ended up crowding into a small corner

The chocolate cake with ice cream added at the end was fantasti

As much as I would have liked to try out other offerings I couldn’t finish what I ordered. The portions were generous. They also had some descent wines which was my drink. The server helped me in selecting my oysters. They had several varieties. The service and
