I work in this building & this place is an absolute favorite lunch spot. Very affordable for the amount of food you get, always fresh & full of flavor. The family that runs it is so polite & the kitchen looks very clean. Highly recommend. I’ll be going there for lunch today, can’t wait for them to open!

I'm glad we found this place as I'm a big Korean and Chinese food fan.Their Bibimbap (Korean mixed rice) is a must try! It's packed with vegetables and so full of flavour.Their General Tso Chicken is served with greens and a couple of Crab Rangoons, which was a nice touch. The chicken pieces are protein-packed and not half batter, which I really enjoyed.Lunch specials are generous and come with a drink. Panda is run by a very sweet family, working hard to serve the local community delightful Korean and Chinese takeout favourites.

Some of the best Chinese food in town. So quick, hot, and fresh. And it's all done by one lovely, polite, caring family.

These people could charge me 3000 dollars and call me names and I'd keep coming back. Amazing food.

Best food, very friendly, not thinking I ordered medium spice, sharing with my 4 yr old grandson, they gave me separate chicken for him, so nice, I got 3 meals out of the sesame chicken

This is the best Asian food in Des Moines! Love this place. You have to try their Mongolian Beef! Family owned. Love the service!

Small, locally owned restaurant in the skywalk. I walk past this place everyday and had been meaning to try it, and I wish I’d done so sooner! The food is phenomenal and made fresh to order. Being in the skywalk, the hours are limited and so are the ingredients since they don’t freeze anything. I’d recommend getting there early to make sure you can get what you want because it’s worth it! I’ll be planning to make this my go to lunch spot. Oh, the portions are super generous too. :)

This place needs to be on everyone’s radar. It is so good. Everything on the menu is worth ordering once. Their Japchae is a revelation to this Midwestern boy. Please go here and give them your money for their perfect lunchtime meals. I cannot recommend enough! 10/10!

Great food. Great price, and large portions. Fresh to made, make sure you get there before their meat runs out for the day.

This place is inside Capital Square on the 2nd floor. It has Chinese dishes and a couple Korean dishes( japchae and bibimbap). All the dishes are made to order. I got japchae and it was delicious ?
