"Saw lots of high reviews, so I gave it a shot. Very average food. Not bad, but underwhelmed.Basic enchiladas and tacos. Taco meat had no distinctive taste, basically no seasoning to it. Tasted like hamburger meat with salt and pepper. Enchiladas ends were hard and dry, the sauce on top was minimal, had to ask for more.Rice had several large clumps. When I arrived there were only three occupied tables so not busy until I left.Mexican food in Southern states is so much better. You can taste richness and the cultural spices, not hot, just more flavor that you can taste and even smell as food arrives at table. I've eaten at 7 different Mexican restaurants in the area and that seems to be a pattern. Again, not bad, just so so tasteParking: In a strip mall so ample parking available"

"My wife, son, and I are at Siam Table last night for the first time. I had the sweet basil chicken. They both had pad Thai tofu. We all agreed that it was the best meal we had had while eating out in as long as we could remember. The food was delicious. The service was excellent. The waiter was kind, cheerful, and a lot of fun. The food arrived quickly. It's in a strip mall, but the atmosphere was quiet and enjoyable. FWIW, this is the first time I've reviewed a restaurant online. I bothered to do so simply because we enjoyed the meal so much.

"Our server was an absolute gem, I wish I could remember his name, but he was so nice and our toddler loved him. The food here is excellent, everything was fresh and so full of flavor, our whole family enjoyed their dishes. I got the chicken gyro and the meat was so juicy and delicious, my husband got the beef/lamb, and my teen got the Alfredo. Again, all the dishes were excellent. We will definitely be back. Vegetarian options: There were a lot of vegetarian options available on their menu. Kid-friendliness: They were very kind and playful to our toddler, have a great kids menu, and offer high chairs.

"I've gone to Ankeny's Main Street Cafe for a year now after I found it on a fluke. I drive there from Des Moines regularly because it's supremely better than every other place I eat! I cannot describe the length of their superb menu, their first-rate customer service, and their follow up with everyone who enters. The atmosphere is without any issues and always make me feel wanted as a customer and calm and peaceful. The staff is so congenial when they bring the food and always come back to see if you need anything. The food selection, prep and delivery is so delicious and served so quick you'd wonder what genie they have in the bottle back there. You won't find finer food there! The management must have actually learned leadership and management because the team all around is the best I've seen anywhere. Keep the food coming and I'll keep ordering!!"

"I don't understand this place. I don't understand the great reviews. No one in our household can imagine returning for any reason. This restaurant is like an alternate reality that has nothing in common with our real world. First of all I must mention that the service was fine. Our server was terrific and provided a perfect level of service that I haven't witnessed in a while during the 2021 times of under staffing. The menu was large and impressive. I had a difficult time choosing between multiple great contenders for my entree. But that's where the joy stopped. We asked for old fashioned cocktails. We left the choice of bourbon up to their bartender. Apparently no bourbon was used because some kind of peppermint liquor was substituted. It was gross and did not constitute an old fashioned. Our two appetizers arrived for our family of four. The portions were minuscule. The size was laughable. The ten or so garlic knots were each less than the size of a quarter, some a penny. The fried ravioli arrived and there were three little fried raviolis. Are we trapped in some elf village where everything is tiny sized? This theme continued on to our entrees. The manicotti and the gyro platter were small and did not contain any side other than the simple cheap salad that preceded them. Our kids meals were even more laughable. They came with nothing else, no side, no salad, no bread, nothing other than the main item. Your kid will receive chicken nuggets and only chicken nuggets. Cheese sticks as an entree and only cheese sticks. How strange. We paid $70 for two tiny adult entrees, two tiny kid meals, two tiny appetizers, and two cocktails. If they want to have European sized portions I'm ok with it, if they would give notice. However we paid American portion prices for European sized portions of food. I can't fathom ever returning. It's a one and done."
