Summer weather is here and that means it's patio season in Iowa! We might be biased, but we think we have one of the best places to soak up the sun and fresh air in all of Des Moines on our rooftop patio. Enjoy a handcrafted cocktail, cold beer, appetizer or delicious meal outside while you catch a game or watch the sun come down. Couch seating, cabanas, tables, and more — there's a spot for you at Destination Grille.
To confirm available seating and ensure the space is not booked for a private event, we ask that you please call ahead before coming to enjoy our rooftop patio.
Starting May 22, 2024
Wednesday & Thursday from 3-9 PM
Friday & Saturday from 3-10 PM
Closed Sunday-Tuesday
