Ariyan

My wife and I are always looking for the "right" pad Thai and most often come out disappointed. Our visit to Ariyan on a date night did not disappoint 🙌 hands down the best pad Thai in Des Moines. We also had a specialty roll, papaya salad and mango sticky rice to go. All of which were equally amazing! The service was personable and prompt. We loved it so much we have returned a 2nd time... again! Amazing service, we love that this is a family owned business (sister, husband and brother) we feel we have made a connection with great people. Once again, food was fresh and delicious. We couldn't not have the pad Thai again (next time im trying the pad see ew- I hear its phenomenal) we had a Kani salad and papaya salad 😋 thank you for the wonderful and consistent tasty and joyful experience.

Hands down the best pad Thai and papaya salad in des moines. Such great service, amazing food presentation, stellar taste and wonderful pricing. Also got the mango sticky rice to go because we were so full. Can report that the presentation was just as good as the flavor. Highly recommend. 10/10. Felt like a taste of home and comfort wrapped up in a new experience.

The food was good. The service was not. I really didn't like that I paid $9 for a bowl of seaweed salad that appeared to be very full but after I ate the top layer of seaweed salad there was a bunch of lettuce underneath it. It's just a deceptive practice that makes the bowl look fuller than it is.

It was our first time in to Ariyan and we enjoyed it! Great service and food. We had the pad Thai and a few of their speciality rolls. Can’t wait to go back and try more from the menu!

Very cute spot. Waitstaff is very attentive. We got the appetizer sampler,a roll and pad see everything and seasame chicken, everything was delicious.
