8 Best Sushi Bars near Ankeny

“Our first visit. Seated straightaway. Food was excellent!“

“New favorite spot in Ankeny! The atmosphere, staff and food were all phenomenal. Highlights were the Takoyaki, eggplant buns, and the RAMEN! I had the spicy beef and the husband had Tonkotsu, both were rich, flavorful and delicious! Also, the portions were huge!! We cannot wait to come back again soon to try more of the menu.“

“Great food with very friendly staff.“

“Just went here for my bday dinner last night with family (was a little worried due to reading prior reviews) and all 7 of us had an excellent experience! Bar tender was friendly and did a great job, and the wait staff served happily and quickly. Chef did a great job and entertained and engaged us, while we had delicious food at the hibachi grill. It was a great outing!“

“If you've never had a sushi cupcake, you don't know what you're missing! The quality of sushi here is just undeniably amazing, and the value you get for your money is so impressive. Please give them a try. They will not disappoint!“

“Masao in Des Moines blew me away. Caitlin was such an awesome server—super attentive and friendly—and Nick, the owner, made the night extra special by sneaking me a few extra sushi pieces to try (and wow, they were delicious). The food here isn’t your typical sushi spot at all—it’s next level. The French tapas were spot on, and everything I tried was amazing: the Ayu and Isaki sushi, clams in lemongrass broth, peach soup, and the fruit and goat cheese tart to finish. On top of that, the space is beautiful with a clean, minimalist vibe. Definitely one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. Check them out before the secret’s out and everyone’s fighting for a table!“
