Yum! OIYS went on to say,

You’ll find this unassuming gem tucked in the northeast corner of Des Moines’ East Village, a neighborhood that feels equal parts artsy and working-class, polished and scrappy in all the right ways. 

Now let's talk about a spot that shows off the beauty of the 1950s. Railroad Bill’s!

The sign is simple. The space is cozy without being cramped. The vibe is unfussy, comfortable, and, above all, human. The staff are genuine and quick with a smile and make you feel like you’re at your cousin’s house, if your cousin happened to be really good at frying things and didn’t judge you for ordering hash browns as a side… and then again as a second side.
