I’ve eaten here many times and it is always amazing food and service but this was my first time ordering delivery! It arrived fast and hot as well as packaged beautifully! Very happy and always recommend this place! 10/10

Many have an opinion on what makes delicious Pho and the entree at A Dong is certainly a dish worth noting. The broth is scrumptious and the fresh herbs, bean sprouts and chicken gives it a umami taste that is so good. The cream cheese & shrimp egg rolls are so delicious. The variety of entrees, the spacious seating and the efficient staff with clean and quick turn around time for each dish makes this a good place to try just before a Hoyt Sherman Production, Social Gatherings or just for a Happy Meet Up!

I chose the Coconut Curry with beef and side of rice. It was good and quite a large portion so I procured a to-go container. Customer service was spot-on.

Their soup was delicious. The main course had way too many beansprouts .

You can’t talk about the Des Moines food scene without talking about A-Dong. Sorry, you can’t! Lived in Des Moines for most of my life until about 10 years ago when I moved away. Upon visiting family, I tried for the first time this award-winning restaurant. It’s worth the hype! Nice, quiet atmosphere and a large menu. From pho to stir-fry all of the food is good. I had the #1 pho and it was so warm and flavorful. Not spicy. Great with the toppings of cilantro, sprouts and jalenpeno. My husband had stir fry and loved it! We had egg and spring rolls very good! Will go back!!

A DSM classic.
We're grateful they're willing to serve our children a kids portion of Pho.
They have the BEST Pho broth in town. 🤤

Some of the worst Vietnamese food Ive ever eaten! The reviews are so far off. Egg rolls were mentioned the most and they were a huge let down. Every part of the noodle dish had to been cooked separately and tossed together at the last second. The veggies were not cooked fully and the meat was definitely overcooked. The only plus giving it a 2 star was the food was so bland that my baby had no problem eating the edible parts.

The pho was good, really good egg rolls. No basil provided but I prefer cilantro anyway. There's a huge menu with 140+ items and lots of combination plates. Iced coffee with condensed milk is a bit overpriced.

We drive from Omaha just to eat here. The rare beef salad is phenomenal. Great food all around.
