Brisket in Beaverdale, Des Moines

“Shout out to Flying Mango for this amazing brisket sandwich and the potato of the day. I ordered it to go. Ready when they said it would be (actually earlier). The brisket melted in your mouth, it was so tender. The bbq sauce paired perfectly with the meat!! Best barbecue in town. My son and I split this… two very satisfied customers. Definitely a place to go in Des Moines. Great food, good people, and the perfect atmosphere!”

“This is one of I was best kept secrets when I pulled up. I’m thinking oh my God this place is a hole in the wall. It’s my birthday. I made a reservation. Something told me to stay. Oh, and I’m so glad I did. This place did not disappoint. The food was amazing. I had the ribs with the Brisket and I had the catfish cake for an appetizer. All were amazing and the price was not bad the service was excellent.”

“The Flying Mango is always a highlight to visit. I’ve had many entrees over the years but the 24 hour brisket always keep me coming back. I love the atmosphere and visiting with the owner is always a treat. Treat yourself by enjoying a meal at the Flying Mango.”

“Local friends have long recommended the Mango. Finally got there last night, and it definitely lived up to the billing. We got the smoked chicken dinner, the brisket sandwich and the jerk chicken quesadillas. The portions were large, and the food was outstanding. Their smoke is pure magic, and their house made barbeque sauce is very good. The sides were also very good. The staff was very friendly, and the service was great.”

“The brisket is amazing!!! The service is top-notch!!! I don't see a reason not to come back. To end the meal, the strawberry rhubarb pie is so good. Love this place.”
