District 36 Wine Bar & Grille in Ankeny serves American fare in an intimate and elegant space inside or out. The patio overlooks one of the ponds in the ever-evolving District at Prairie Trail. Start with a Caprese platter before the Steak Delmonico or prime rib (chef Judson Eddy’s favorite on Friday and Saturday nights) and top it off with Snickers bread pudding. 🥂
