    Papaya Salad
    Rosie N.

    What a great find! It's definitely a place to try out for some snacks. It's a bit on the pricey side for street food but still worth to try it. It is also not fast, so it does take a while to get your food. So plan to wait for your food about 15 mins or more. We got the papayas salad. It had Vietnamese style beef jerky. So it's dried and more chewy. I wished it had a bit more heat (spicy) to it, since there wasn't. It was more on the savory and sweet side. The skewers are fried with no batter. So it's simple but tasty. The crispy rice sandwich was definitely worth it. It's crispy, savory, and a slight chew from the sticky rice. The lotus milk tea was top notch! Sweet, creamy, and a slight floral note to it! The limeade is actually bubbly! So it's not a juice but still good! Finally, the macaroni beef stir fry is the best choice. It's savory, tender, has a more teriyaki flavor to it too. Overall will come again!

    What a hidden gem, this place is fantastic. Vietnamese street food and a variety of Asian snacks with amazing drinks. I got the grilled chicken with sticky rice, be aware that the chicken are grill chicken that is on a bone, but it falls off the bone, great favor, love the dipping sauce and pear is great with the sticky rice. I got the tamarin pineapple lemolemonade, amazing and very sweet! I did purchase a snack that I haven't tired yet, but super excited. This place is quirky and very unique i loved the vibe, service was great, can't wait to go back.

    Where to begin?! This place is amazing. Went for lunch on a Friday not sure what to expect. We were greeted very warmly and the staff was very eager to answer any questions we had. The drink menu is large and everything is made fresh with fresh ingredients. No powders or substitutes. Tried the limeade and the orange lemongrass peach tea. Both were sweet and very refreshing. Tried the deep fried pork spring roll and pork fried sticky rice as appetizers. Both were freshly made and very very good. The fried sticky rice is large and very filling in itself. We tried the ramen stir fry with beef and the macaroni stir fry with beef. We left very full and very satisfied with everything we tried!!! The store also has a snack section with various Asian snacks and drinks. We left with some stuff for the kids to try. I can not recommend this place more! Get in there before it becomes too popular and the line is out the door. The west side of the Des Moines Metro was long over due for a great Vietnamese restaurant!

    I love it here so much! My husband is always greeted so friendly when he goes through those doors. They always remember us and we always miss the food. Despite it being a bit higher in price, it's well worth it all!!! Since 9months ago, we have seen the menu change a lot. Now when you order you must not be picky! Vietnamese culture is seasoned by fresh ingredients and not usually spices like most American cuisine needs. My all time favorite dish right now has to be their Crab soup with duck egg. It's delicious. The duck egg will look like mushroom but it's not and it's AMAZING. I wish I got more. Everything on the menu is always delicious. And if you haven't tried their kumquat lime tea, it's a must too!!

It's had an impact but it's still at the top of my list when I'm craving Chinese food. This weekend was my 54th birthday. My daughter is at camp, but I wanted to do something with my son. The place I wanted to try was China Chef however I didn't realize they had closed their dining room area. After driving from Clive to the South side we changed plans in the China Cheft parking lot and headed to Waukee. We were greeted and seated right away as we walked on and were seated at a booth. The place is starting to show it's age. The carpet...it needs replaced. But overall it's clean and if nothing else it's familiar. We were presented with menus and glasses of water. Staff checked on us regularly throughou the meal Since it was between 1100 AM and 200 PM we were eligible for the lunch special options. It's a smaller menu, but comes with an egg roll, crab rangoon, your choice of soup (egg drop or hot and sour), and the entree. My son ordered the orange chicken with egg drop soup with a soda. I ordered the Yu Shiang shrimp with hot and sour soup and stuck with only water. I LOVE Shanghai's crab rangoons. They're definitely more on the sweet side. I ordered another order of those. Love them! The house hot mustard. Be careful! It's easy to overdo and it will clear your sinuses like tear gas. But it's SO good...! The orange chicken was excellent as usual. The Yu Shiang shrimp... It's the first time I've ordered it there. The deep red of the sauce was a little off putting. I'm used to a spicy brown sauce. The sauce on the Yu Shiang shrimp... This is just a visual thing though. The sauce is spicy and it tastes good. But like they say...first you eat with your eyes and then with your mouth. I'd love to see this changed to a more traditional look. It just looks "off" as is. Great service and good food. And enjoyable birthday lunch...and we got to sit eating down in the restaurant. Lol Always a great option in my regular rotation! https://shanghaiwk.com/

Biggest disappointment was that while alcohol options showed on the menu, they were unable to serve any alcohol - claiming that their liquor license had not yet been renewed. I was craving a spring roll with peanut sauce, so to start things off, we ordered #90 Bo Bia steamed spring rolls with shredded shrimp, carrots and sausage served with plum sauce (see picture). While the wrap was thicker than the 'paper' wraps that I'm used to, they were very good - and I really liked the plum sauce. My wife was undecided and our very helpful waiter Archie, suggested #69 Com Ga Chien Xa Ot (chicken breast fried with spicy lemon grass - see picture). It was good, but both of us would have preferred a bit more spice, as we ended up adding Siracha at the table. I was considering #99 Banh Xeo Vietnamese style crispy pancake stuffed with shrimp, pork & veggies based on the menu picture, but Archie talked me into #97 Banh Tam Bi Xiu Mai udon noodles with shredded pork, steamed pork meatballs and veggies instead (see picture). I was impressed with the coconut milk and lemon sauce that he poured over it when served with the instructions to stir it all together - very tasty combination of savory, sweet and tart, with a very slight spiciness.

I ordered the Pho Special (comes with brisket, beef tendon, eye of round, and meatballs).

Not the best pho I've had, but I still enjoyed it a lot. Broth had great flavor, however I wish I could have had raw steak as I prefer that in my pho but that wasn't an option- I usually like getting raw steak to put into the hot soup and let it cook a bit through as you put it in. I would eat here again though. The restaurant was clean and service was prompt. Nicely decorated, and prices were fair!
