5 Best Asian Restaurants near Des Moines

“Absolutely the best Asian food in all of Des Moines. Not only is the restaurant super clean, but the staff is excellent. The owners are always there putting in hard work and you can tell they just genuinely love to feed people. The portions are great. The wait time is generally a bit longer but that's because everything is prepared fresh to order. Nothing is made a head of time. I eat here as often as I can and I drive all the way from West Des Moines to do it. I really like the Phò, the Egg rolls and crab Rangoon are phenomenal! I sometimes order the Empress Chicken which is always great! Everything they make is terrific! The outside and location can fool you. It's nothing flashy on the outside and is not in the best area, but once you're inside, you forget about any of that. I'd give them more stars if I could! -Aaron“

“This was a great experience all the way around! Our waitress was very good and the food was great! I had Kung poa chicken. We went at lunchtime and our food arrived in a reasonable amount of time and has just the right amount of spice. I would recommend this place!“
