EXCELLENT Based on 81 reviews Dayana DuarteSeptember 26, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Acredito que toda experiência em um restaurante precisa ser compartilhada. O SAVOR BRAZIL é muito mais do que um restaurante: é um espaço de acolhimento. Para nós, brasileiros, é como ter um cantinho do Brasil aqui em Iowa, onde podemos matar a saudade dos sabores, temperos e preferências que só a nossa culinária tem. Tudo o que já experimentei no restaurante foi simplesmente incrível! Cada prato tem aquele sabor caseiro e autêntico que aquece o coração. Vale muito a pena conhecer. Além disso, a Inês coloca amor em tudo que faz. Dá para sentir o carinho e dedicação dela em cada detalhe, no cuidado com a comida e no atendimento acolhedor com cada pessoa que chega ali. Um verdadeiro pedacinho do Brasil fora do Brasil! 🇧🇷✨ Megan MasonSeptember 20, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This place is exactly what Ankeny needs! They were very patient as we were new to Brazilian food and helped us pick some dishes to start with. We inhaled everything...even my picky kids loved it all! The cheesecake was light and fluffy, empanadas flaky and so much cheese. We will be returning customers! Eunice TorresSeptember 17, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Food was phenomenal!! So much flavor and presentation was stunning. Great team in there ready to share their delicious items with you. Will definitely visit again for the cheese bread and to try out their desserts! L GSeptember 2, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ankeny sometimes feels limited when you’re looking to go to flavor town, but in the case of Savor, look no further. Bakery, 10 out of 10. Menu, 10 out of 10. The people, 10 out of 10. UPDATE: went back and the hits keep on coming. New and interesting culinary experiences awaited us much to our delight! Freshest cheese bread we have EVER had coupled with new drink options not only filled my belly, but my heart with joy. Seriously, if you are wanting food in Ankeny and you haven’t been here yet - you are missing out.
