The chef team at Oak Park.

Our philosophy stems from partnering with local farmers and sourcing local products to inspire and shape our menu. By combining that philosophy with the skills we developed in New York and Chicago, and working alongside a team who has the same drive and desire, we’re delivering something special to Des Moines.

The neighborhood culinary garden.

Seasonal crops planted and plucked from our adjacent garden are pivotal ingredients found on our ever-evolving dinner menu. These unique and rich garden flavors inspire everyone from the chef team to the sommelier and our bar manager.

A transformative chef’s table experience.

When guests dine at the Chef’s Table, our hope is to transform their evening. As they discover each course and go through the experience, we want to give them a memory that is long lasting – a dish they will think about 20 years from now.
