★★★★★ 5.0 Denise Sorrentino · Feb 2026

What an amazing experience! A beautiful restaurant on Ingersoll in Des Moines. We went for the Valentine weekend experience and it was fabulous. A six course meal plus dessert. 5 star service by our waitress Melina. The food was all 5 star plus! They actually had a vegetarian and a vegan "no problem" menu which is almost unheard of. A true gem. Highly recommend!!!

★★★★★ 5.0 Jamile Shirley · Feb 2026

Fantastic and memorable! We enjoyed every exquisite morsel. The experience was akin to eating at an art museum. The service was professional, kind, knowledgeable, and incredibly efficient. We found the menu to have plentiful vegetarian options—which is often scarce in the Midwest. I think we ordered all of them! My husband and I were celebrating his retirement after 33+ years of service in the Army National Guard. It was a big day for us, the Harbinger team made it incredibly special, warm, and memorable. Thank you so much!

Incredible food, marvelous service. Each bite of food felt like a separate experience, and I savored all of it. They were also more than accommodating of my dietary preferences and were very thoughtful. We went for happy hour, and the $8 dishes were honestly my favorites of the entire menu (the bao buns and shokupan). The chef’s tasting was decadent. 10/10 recommend.

Fantastic dining experience. These guys and gals obviously love what they do. Chefs tastings were phenomenal, atmosphere and service were on point. Wine tasting was weak, but a great starter cocktail and everything else was perfect! Can’t wait to go back!

★★★★★ 5.0 Adrianna Alewine · Nov 2025

We loved this place! We visited after leaving the airport before checking into our hotel & they stowed our bags for us while we ate. Staff was super friendly. We really enjoyed the small plates because you can try a wide variety of different dishes. We loved the happy hour drinks!! Great place for a date night.
