7 Best Asian Fusion Restaurants near Ankeny

“Best food ever, very affordable price and everything is so fresh!“

“Hawker’s Kitchen is hands down one of the best Malaysian and Singaporean restaurants you can find in the country. From the moment you step in, the atmosphere feels warm and welcoming, setting the stage for an authentic Southeast Asian dining experience.

The food is outstanding — every dish is cooked with care and packed with rich, bold flavors that taste just like what you’d find at hawker stalls in Kuala Lumpur or Singapore. The ingredients are fresh, portions are generous, and the balance of spices is perfect. Whether you’re craving savory noodles, fragrant rice dishes, or their incredible curry noodle soup (laksa), everything here is a hit.

The service is just as impressive as the food. The staff are friendly, attentive, and passionate about what they serve, which really elevates the whole experience. You can tell they take pride in sharing authentic Asian flavors with their customers.

If you’ve been searching for a place to satisfy your Asian food cravings, look no further. Hawker’s Kitchen won’t disappoint. I highly recommend this spot — once you try it, you’ll definitely come back for more!“

“Service and atmosphere was terrific. We arrived around 5 pm on a Sunday. We were seated right away and approached by a server. After a few minutes another server, Risaun, approached us and apologized about us having to wait. After he took our order the manager approached and explained that there was some scheduling conflicts with the first server. We hadn't even noticed, but they had. Risaun took his job seriously and was always near when needed. This restaurant should be a training place for many other restaurants. They show pride in customer service and satisfaction. We'll stop by again when we're in the area.“

“amazing dinner we all loved which is no easy feat with asian cuisine in my house and its my birthday so thank you!“

“Had to revisit to try the fish.
I ordered wonton soup, hot tea and tomato catfish! 😋
My host was attentive and quick.
The soup was delicious and had a tasty broth, vegetables and a good amount of wonton! Not just dough, thick and meaty wonton!
My fish...OMG! Summers. Look at the photo!
All in all, I was able to relax on the mellow atmosphere and enjoy a super delicious meal. Im grateful.“

“Lunch at 11- order at counter. Simple and easy to understand menu. Gal at register super nice and helpful. It was my first time eating in.

Had the shrimp teriyaki with a salad. Salad was awesome- simply because it had more than lettuce! Broccoli, edamam, red onion, carrots...yay. The shrimp was overcooked, but still a good dish. I should have done fried rice, forgot how boring white rice is. Also did the scarlet sushi roll. A little spice, not too much. Had crab on top and I forgot what fish in the middle. Tasty.

Had my food in 5 minutes. Clean space. Plenty of seating for a quick lunch. Miss of booths, tables, high top. Parking a little tight and I missed the entrance the first time around. My fault.

$25 before tip. I had enough food for 2 meals, so that isn't too bad. Will visit again.“

“We ordered carry-out tonight. Great food & friendly staff!“
