The no pic wife and I will be heading to Des Moines for Les Miserables tomorrow afternoon and looking for a restaurant close by the Civic Center for dinner after the show. Not looking for anything fancy just some good food.

Wife and I went to Bar Nico in the East Village for a date night two weeks ago. Fantastic. Upscale/new age Mexican. I.e. fancy tacos. The East Village has better restaurants than Court Ave but if you want to stay on that side, Court Ave Brewing would be a good choice.
I gave this a like even though it was recommended by The Devil. I try not to listen to what Satan says.
SPLASH
Seafood Oyster Bar & GrillThe Ahi Poke Tuna Tacos are to die for.

The Stuffed Olive is close and has great martinis as well as other drinks and their food is good. Other option close is Splash. Good place but more spendy.
Any place along Ingersol Ave has great food - Harbinger, Eatery A, Star Bar, Sakari.

Ended up at Eatery A. Had hummus and roasted beets for appetizer. Both fantastic. I had cavatelli with duck ragu and olives. Great sweet and salty taste. Wife had a wood fire pizza. Everything was really good.
Thanks @OutbackBowl2017
Not open Sundays, outsider. Main reason I had to quit drinking was consistently waking up on Sundays hungover and craving Tasty's and getting pissed when I realized it's Sunday
Good choice. Also the best Happy Hour deal in town with half priced pizzas and bottles of wine.
Eatery A...is really that in Ingersol? I thought you wanted to stay “close” to downtown.
(BTW...Eatery A is where the legendary HROT poster Cloyd Webb,had his post-burial “lunch” for friends and family. It’s solid food/ menu. Good choice.)
That was the original plan, but the the radius got wider after the show. Less than 10 minute drive wasn't bad.
Seems like you had to adjust your restaurant search radius after the show! A less than 10-minute drive doesn't sound too bad though. If you're still on the lookout for more recommendations, perhaps expanding the search radius could lead you to discover some hidden gems for restaurant near me.

How big does one need to change the radius to find the hidden gems near the server farm where you're hosted?
