Noah's scrumptious pizza has been a staple for my trips to Des Moines for many years, and their fluffy onion and green pepper rings are the stuff of dreams on flights into DSM. On my most recent trip, I had a proper sit-down meal for...the first time in ages. (Hooray, covid vaccination!) I had forgotten how delightful this restaurant is in person. The Ravioli en Casserole featured the same exquisitely-spiced meat I know from their meatballs (homemade on-site, natch), smothered in their velvety tomato sauce, topped with mozzarella, and baked to a golden perfection. Entree included a side salad (house dressing is a luxurious creamy Italian) and a fresh, warm butterflake roll. This was the ultimate comfort meal - traditional Italian cooking, indulgent without being gluttonous, beautifully executed in their cozy Rat-pack era setting with a nautical theme. Sit at the bar for bonus ambience. There is a reason this place has been in business since 1946. Kudos to James Lacona (grandson of founder Noah) and his staff for weathering the pandemic. I am grateful you're still here and looking forward to my next visit. Grazie!More
