"I came to Des Moines for a wedding earlier this year, and this is one of the places that popped up on a few sources I was researching. If you go and browse this menu even just once, you'll understand why I had to rush here as soon as possible. I took an Uber here from the airport, lugged my luggage inside, and got to work. I was preparing for a giant dinner, so I only ordered two 10-inch pies to split with my girlfriend. Pie number one was General Tso's Chicken Pizza (General Tso's sauce, breaded chicken, water chestnuts, baby corn, roasted red pepper, Mozzarella and Asiago topped with fresh green onion). This was a fun one! The sauced chicken and the crunchy chestnuts and the most unique part, the baby corn! A solid combination. You will not be disappointed. Now the real star of the show was the Crab Rangoon Pizza (Crab rangoon base, surimi, green onion, Asiago and Mozzarella topped with crispy wontons and a sweet chili lattice). This was the best thing I ate for the entirety of my visit in Des Moines. I'm not kidding. The base of rangoon is genius. So creamy. And then the crispy wontons are everywheeere. You'll get some with every bite. And the sweet chili sauce, we all know how good that stuff is. I just don't know how to even describe it. You'll just have to come try it. It's amazing. I had it a total of three times while I was in town. Not kidding. So yea, this is a good place to come eat. Probably the best place in Des Moines. Come, eat."
