Des Moines, Iowa
 
Will be moving to Des Moines, Iowa soon. Love Italian food. Anyone know of any good Italian (authentic) restaurants there? Does the Des Moines area/Midwest have a medium/large Italian population?

Dawn, you need to post this on the US forum. This is Europe

As of 1990 neither medium nor large. See

But I thought Des Moines WAS in Europe? I know it's in some godforsaken place...oh yes now I remember...Iowa. (Only kidding...I'm a grad of Drake Un. in DM).

I haven't been to Des Moines in a while. I will say this -- there are good restaurants there. I just can't name any specifically because I've been gone for a few years.

Where are you moving from?

You want scary? Try The Olive Garden.
