Wow, this was an excellent Chinese buffet! The quality and variety of Chinese fare was outstanding. I got a kick out of the crab rangoon. Not only was it tasty, but massive as well. If you are a fan of this kind of cuisine, give Buffet City a try.

Fun and quirky atmosphere matches the eclectic pizza choices. The Orange Chicken pizza is fabulous and the cream cheese dessert egg rolls were a huge hit! Our server was very friendly and made great suggestions. Crust is very thin so order up a size if your hungry. A return visit to try the other pizzas is a must.

Our family likes the Sesame Chicken, General Tsao Chicken, the Vegetable Fried Rice, and the wonton soup. The steamed or fried potstickers are great. But some of specials include an egg roll and a crab rangoon which are both delicious as well as a cup of soup. Lunch and dinner specials differ so pay attention to what is included in each. Dinner portions are bigger than lunch portions, and lunch portions are big enough for two people. Prices reasonable, service good. Casual dining, order at the counter and they bring the food to your table.

Our family enjoyed a delicious lunch, even the picky granddaughter loved her spicy noodles meal. The dishes are prepared with fresh vegetables and meats, and the sauces are flavorful. You can customize the spiciness of your meal from mild to wild. As we finished our lunches, we all said we couldn't wait to come back again.

A Vietnamese lady with preschool twin daughters started a shop in the Food Court at Merle Hay Mall. The little girls sat at a table and drew with colors as the mother cooked and served food to customers. The Mall Walkers Club and other customers fell in love with the mother and the twins. They became loyal lunch customers and the restaurant business grew. The mother started all you can eat Friday lunches. The business grew more. The food is authentic and very tasty. The prices are very cool petitive. There is free parking in the mall parking lot. There is a big open dining room area of tables and chairs in the Food Court. She has moved her business one time to a larger kitchen area. I think in due time she will expand to a larger space again. She has one employee now but she will need more employees soon.

I consider myself quite the foodie, and Ohana's is my favorite restaurant in my hometown of Des Moines, hands-down. The quality of the food is outstanding; the atmosphere is fun; the staff is friendly. I order the Royal Combination with a filet and scallops - I would say their best known dish. The steak is cooked to perfection, and the lemon sauce they make in-house for the scallops is... addictive, for lack of better word. We have been there so many times now that our order has gotten bigger and bigger because they offer so many delicious options. We always order with garlic and chili powder now, and an appetizer of calamari as well - which is not the typical chewy calamari you think of, but instead is tender, well-seasoned, and unbreaded. I could go on and on. The sauces are all amazing. Just don't plan on having room for dessert, because in all the years I have eaten there I have only ordered it once I think - never enough room. If you're a light, or even medium-eater, plan on having leftovers.First off, Courtney, I have to thank you for visiting us all this time! It's wonderful the scallops, steak, and of course the lemon sauce always hit the spot. I look forward to welcoming you back next time you're back in Des Moines.All the best,Marco, Manager

With the exception of one other Thai restaurant this is the best Thai food we have had outside of Thailand.Pad See Ew and Spicy Basil. Flavorful, absolutely wonderful. Could hardly stop stuffing our mouths. The Summer Roll was spectacular. Huge, fresh, with a little cooked egg in it. Two sauces, peanut and sweet and sour. Can't say enough. Highly recommend!!!

I've been here many times in this place gets a lot of hyperbole about being the best sushi in Des Moines. It may be I have unreasonable expectations because I lived in Japan and Hawaii and California. There are at least two other sushi restaurants in Des Moines one downtown in one near downtown that are equally as good or better in some ways. They still haven't cleaned up their bathrooms here and it really cost a lot of stress to one of the people I was with and there's not too much excuse for that. they also serve a variety of food which is one of the reasons I wanted to come because one of my friends does not like sushi but wanted a Chinese food. the problem is they don't know how to get it together or at least the last time I was there they did not know how to get it together so the meals came out at the same time and not one on one over 15 minutes. If you read my review so you can see that I normally don't post too much negative things and if it's a really bad experience I don't post it all. I just don't think they deserve all this kind of rave reviews that they get one it's really not that special. having said that if you have reasonable expectations you'll have a fairly good meal just be prepared to wait and realize that the parking also is miserable especially in the winter they don't go out and salt things so it's can be dangerous when the parking lot freezes over and what you have to walk in.
