"Saw lots of high reviews, so I gave it a shot. Very average food. Not bad, but underwhelmed.Basic enchiladas and tacos. Taco meat had no distinctive taste, basically no seasoning to it. Tasted like hamburger meat with salt and pepper. Enchiladas ends were hard and dry, the sauce on top was minimal, had to ask for more.Rice had several large clumps. When I arrived there were only three occupied tables so not busy until I left.Mexican food in Southern states is so much better. You can taste richness and the cultural spices, not hot, just more flavor that you can taste and even smell as food arrives at table. I've eaten at 7 different Mexican restaurants in the area and that seems to be a pattern. Again, not bad, just so so tasteParking: In a strip mall so ample parking available"

"I have higher expectations for the price I paid. The only reason I keep coming back to this restaurant is because it's my daughter's favorite. The meatballs are decent, but the red sauce lacks flavor and needs a generous amount of parmesan to enhance it, even though the parmesan gives the food an odd starchy taste. The service is consistently unreliable and often appears disinterested or annoyed. The atmosphere, like the food, is unremarkable, although there is plenty of seating which is a plus. The breadsticks, usually soft and slightly greasy, were dry and crunchy on both ends, indicating they were either old or overcooked. I would not recommend this restaurant as a dining option. The only reason to come here is if you are in a situation like mine, where someone you care about inexplicably enjoys the food."

"I ordered the 3 pieces of chicken strips. I got the 8 pieces nuggets. it seems chick filet makes this meal it is especially diet, between the small size of nuggets and the less than full container of soggy fries a person stands an excellent chance to lose weight."

"Visited the Leaning Tower of Pizza located at Uptown Ankeny during a Farmer 's Market being held just a few blocks away. I mention this, because if you choose to visit this fine restaurant on a Saturday during the Spring Summer, be prepared, as all dining establishments can be rather crowded. We were fortunate to walk in and be seated immediately. We knew what we were going to get, so as soon as the waitress arrived, were ordered the Leaner specialty pizza (medium) and half order of onion rings. I 'm including a pic of the pizza, but forgot to take a pic of the rings, which were spectacular. Make no mistake, these are genuine rings. You 'll love them. As for the pizza, I always try to find something special I like about an entree that just about any restaurant in the city can make. Over the years of visiting Leaning Tower, I 've discovered it 's THE BEST DAMN SAUCE AROUND. No kidding ... that 's what sets it aside from other thin crust pizzas. So, give Leaning Tower at Uptown a visit, and try the rings and pizza."
