I must confess I am a Cashew Chicken snob! I come from Springfield, MO, (Where Cashew Chicken was invented) and I love the meal there. That being said, I was excited to hear finally, after 23 years of living here. Someone had listed on their menu, “Springfield Cashew Chicken”. I will say it is close, but not exactly there yet; but they are better than anyone in Iowa I have tried, (And I have tried a lot! Ha).

Fast, friendly service. The food was very very fast. Ordered two dishes and they were out within 10 minutes. The food were tasty and flavorful. The orange chicken was awesome, however, it lacks chicken. Just alot of fried fillers (breading). The chicken fried rice was very good. The hot and sour soup was delicious. I do not recommend the egg roll or crab rangoon. The egg roll was one of those processed factory made eggroll. It was soggy, mushy, oily, and super gross.

We moved to the Des Moines area about 8 years ago and have tried to find an Asian restaurant that could come close to our favorite one in Ohio. I think we’ve gone to every Asian restaurant in the Des Moines area, always walking away disappointed.

The beef in the dish I ordered had a strange taste and consistency and should have been a red flag. 1-hour after returning home, the effects of food poisoning started. To be polite, it was a long miserable night and my sides still hurt.

I always get their Tofu and vegetables Pho, it’s very good. Tried the chicken one too one time, it’s also very decent. It’s not spicy at all, it’s me who added chilli oil

I ordered spicy but wanted it more than their normal spicy and it was hot but not overbearing just right. Plenty of food and good! Military friendly too. If you choose to show Military ID a discount is provided. I opted out but it’s available!

In comparison to chopsticks down the street it comes in second. The portions were there however, just not enough meat in my opinion. Still the lunch menu is under the $10 mark and I would eat here again and stick to the sweet and sour chicken on the lunch menu. You can see in the photo how many carrots filled the plate. If veggies are you thing then you will like it. Recommend, Thanks for reading and if this review helped give a thumbs up.
