"Oh emm geee!!! This Pho was exactly what we needed! Both of us are down with respiratory crud, and needed some healing food. Boy did we get it! The Pho Chicken had so much chicken! I added the Hoisin and Sriracha sauce, and completely cleared my sinuses! The Mushroom Pho was perfect for the hubby! He absolutely loved it! Thank you for helping us heal!! Ten out of ten!"
"I am definitely no stranger to pho real, literally been a customer since day 1 for both rebrands. Prices have increased, but it seems quality along with quality check have not improved. But to have two pieces of meat folded up in a leaky bag of myoglobin is WILD for $26. An increase in price should be accompanied with an increase in presentation "

"Finally found a burrito that reminds me of the ones I fell in love with in Northern California. It was tightly wrapped, held together all the way to the last bite, and the ingredients were evenly distributed instead of being all rice or all meat. Fresh tortilla, great portions, and I’ll definitely be ordering it again!"
"NEVER CONSISTENT, portion control is always so small compared to every other pancheros. Don't try to order a burrito, they don't know how to wrap. And almost every time I order queso it's chunky blocks of cheese never melted..."

"This is the best Indian food in town. Not only is the food made fresh and with love, the customer service is exceptional. I placed a catering order for my company event recently and not only the owner gave a great pricing, they offered to set it up for free. Awesome family owned business. This is my goto spot for great fresh food."
"food came nicely and warm. However, quantity/portion has gone down since they first opened. flavour wasn't truly there for the food. Overall was a disappointed meal.
Goat Curry was very small for such a price. Asked to get extra spicy. Doesn't seem to be any different.
Paneer Tikka was extremely dry. The Paneer was like rubber. Non sponginess that you get from typical paneer. They were burnt. Green pepper weren't. very small portion for such price point.
Mango Lassi was good as always.
Naan was a mess. some burnt worse than other. about 50% of the 2 naans were just crunchy like crackers... what!!!
Tandoori Roti was moist and good."

"The Butter Chicken is my favorite item on the menu. I've tried other Indian restaurants in Des Moines, and flavor wise, this is the best butter chicken in my opinion. I do wish they added a bit more chicken pieces, or offered the option to add more chicken for an extra fee. The Naan bread is the fluffiest! The mango lassi was delicious. I do recommend this restaurant."
"The Veg Manchurian was very good! I asked for spicy and was not disappointed. The Navratan Korma was full of flavor. All of it was fresh and was super filling and lasted for two meals! Definitely will order again."

"I ordered the Maharani Dinner (Vegetarian for 2) and it was...DYNAMITE!! I am a lover of Middle Eastern cuisine, most especially Indian, and I'm very familiar with Indian food and India Star is probably the best I have ever had. The Malai Kofta was creamy and sublime. This is my very favorite dish and India Star's version is the best ever, and I've eaten Malai Kofta from at least 7 states, close to 3 dozen Indian restaurants, still Indian Star beats them all The vegetable torpedoes (that's what my crew call them) still had a subtle but still detectable crispness to the outside and the firm, delicious center was the perfect texture and explodes with savory flavor. The fragrant sauce has a cheesy, nutty flavor that is hearty and indulgent. the pakora and samosa appetizers, lentil soup, naan, really everything was delicious and gets 11 out of 10 stars. Ok, confession time. I ordered dinner for 2 yet I was the only one eating! I'm not sorry, India Star has been my goto for 30+ years!"
"First time ordering Indian food and this is SO good. Super good portions too i defI did mhave leftovers. M edium heat on the Chicken Makhani and it has a good nice heat to it. The hot option for sure would've been super spicy. Garlic Naan was super good and a good garlic flavor "

"All of our food was delicious. We tried the Methi Lamb (Served with Basmati rice ) for the first time and the sauce, lamb, and fenugreek leaves are an amazing combo! The Malai Kofta (Served with Basmati rice ) is one of my favorite dishes from them. We tried breads which we have had one somewhere else but the Paneer Kulcha was brand new. Both the Paneer Kulcha and Aloo Paratha (2 Pieces) were super thick, still very warm and the cheese was still melty, and absolutely delicious. The breads are very filling though and honestly could be a meal on their own.

"Even the vegetables are delicious here! Try the hummus, the Moroccan Carrots, the cold Roasted Beets, the Sweet Corn and the fig #6 Pizza. And be sure to savor the superlative corn chowder with lime crema when available. Portions are a little small but the ingredients are so fresh you don't notice or care. This is our third dinner and we obviously will return."
"$33 for small Fettuccine with shrimp. Shrimp came separately in a tiny box and fettuccini all stuck together with nothing but oil and pepper on it - no cheese or sauce (and "small" means a 3"x4" box by the way, for $33). $23 for a 5"x5" slice of Lasagna. $15+ for the Brie Monsire which is just one sad slice of brie and some almonds. NO bread, salad, or other sides came with these entrees at all. Do they serve it in the restaurant with no bread or salad? Thats $72 plus tax, fees and tip. Stay away! What a ripoff! "

"Panko mozz sticks were so yummy and warmed up the next day were still crispy. Love the panko crumbs. Truffle mushroom pizza was perfect. Might be top 5 pizzas I've ever had. My friends supreme pizza was also perfect. Asked for extra sauce on her pizza and I had extra cheese on my truffle pizza and they both were done perfectly. Wish I had another pizza again today it was sooooo good!"

"my first visit to this restaurant and I was flabbergasted! it was great for the price! Taste was wonderful... I have to say best egg roll ever!"
"Food quality? Mediocre. Ordered two bowl combos, one sesame, one orange. When we went to grab our food, we realized that both bowls were the exact same, and we couldn't tell what the sauce tasted like. Zero sesame seeds, and not a hint of any orange flavoring.
As for the portion sizes, if you're going to charge out the wazoo for your food, at least give people enough food to make sure they're full.
The Bao was probably the best part of the entire meal, and I'm fairly certain they come frozen.
Don't waste your money, get literally anything else besides this place."

"the Samosa is delicious, Veggie Spring Rolls are fresh and crunchy. the Zakaw Htamin ( MinGaLaBar Plate ) includes so many different items to try. I recommend if you just cant decide! this was my first time ordering. but I would order all three again if there weren't so many other tasty sounding options to try."

I have to say this last experience was one of the best experiences I've had with Panda Express and doordash delivery"
"Normally the portions are generous and fresh. Tonight though, the portions were less than normal. The chow mein was incredibly oily and about 50% cabbage. There was so much oil in the food it was pooling in the container. I have never had this before from this store so it was somewhat of a disappointment."

"This place will wow you! The flavor, portions and price were all perfect. The General Tsao's Chicken is not as sweet and syrupy as you get at other places. It's also fried hard. Both of those were pluses for me. Most people can probably tolerate a 3 spice level. I prefer the 4. Every element of the Combination Fried Rice was well prepared. The beef was not that gray chewy stuff you get other places. It was beautifully seared and flavorful. The shrimp were larger than average and not overcooked. They were well seasoned too. Do yourself a favor and try this place."
"Best Chinese food in the metro! Was devastated when Shang Yuen switched ownership but so happy the family recipes live on through Heavenly! The beef is so tender! The chicken so crispy! The rice so fluffy! Deep, well balanced flavors. Everything we've had has been so delicious and we have high standards for Asian food being an Asian household.
Food ALWAYS arrives hot and fresh and well packaged! Cannot recommend enough!"

"Loved the flavor. There should be more meat, there was only 5 bite size beef pieces, And I was charged extra for beef. Otherwise I did order a lunch portion but was still very large! 4 stars only because of meat amount."
"Peanut noodles medium spice. Sauce on top of noodles that was not enough to coat all the noodles when mixed. I selected
Tofu for the protein and there were 5 pieces. Only a few veggies. So, essentially it was a bland bowl of plain noodles with a little heat (spice) to it. Overly priced for what was received. I rarely give poor reviews. I'm giving it 3 starts because it was hot and freshly made and restaurants cannot always be perfect . Hopefully, this review is noted and improve upon this dish for other customers."

It was very tasty, I was said I wasnt getting Pho but the restaurant included a small soup size of pho broth with my order so that made up for it! A must try!"
"The portions at Pho Viet are legit. You definitely won’t leave hungry. The pho bowls are packed, and there’s a good balance of noodles, meat, and broth. Honestly feels like you’re getting your money’s worth every time. Perfect if you’re super hungry—or want some leftovers for later."

"I order from here almost weekly and have it delivered to work. The pad Thai with chicken is SERIOUSLY good!! Beware of the spice scale, a 4-5 is pretty good heat. They always pack the containers full, I am totally satisfied with the portion size and it is only $15 after a driver tip. Fair price, excellent food, highly recommend!!"
"Food was very good. But $11 for a 5 piece roll (birthday roll) and $8 for 2 pieces of spring rolls is criminal. If you're going to order from here I would stay away from the apps and the special sushi rolls - you get very little for a lot of money compared to other nearby places. Pad thai and curry dishes are always good and big portions though so it's more worth your money. "
