The 36 Best Restaurants in Des Moines, Iowa

"Palm’s Caribbean transports Iowans to the tropics, even in the darkest and snowiest days of winter. Cook and co-owner Amara Sama was raised on his stepmom’s Liberian food and his uncle’s Jamaican fare. Both influences make their way onto the menu at this food stand, which serves customers every other week at the downtown farmers market, as well as large events throughout the year, including the weeklong Ragbrai bike ride across Iowa. The aroma of spicy jerk chicken wings and jollof rice attracts lines wherever Sama and co. pop up." - Karla Walsh

Had the chance today to try Home Touch Kitchen and it is an African restaurant. I must say it was WAY better than i expected. I had the cassava meal with fufu and it was delicious, it has so many layers of flavor with the chicken, turkey, cassava, and all the spices. The owner was very kind and personable as we sat and chatted about business and his time in Ghana. What an experience he offered me. This is a small restaurant that you don’t want to sleep on. Step out of your comfort zone and come support an amazing family and restaurant.

The other day we went out to try our local Afro Food for the first time and it was pretty good specially the fufu and palm butter stew, it has a little heat to it which I like and I’ll be back to try more other things. And we would also like to thanks Anna for paying for our meal that day we will diffidently pay this kindness forward.

This is my first time trying west African food, and I cannot be more impressed! The fufu and pepper soup was full of flavors, and it was such a fun experience! Amazing service too! Highly recommend!

I had the cassava leaf, rice, and fufu and my husband had the kidney bean soup with rice and fufu. It was sooooo good!! So much flavor and a perfect amount of heat. There is enough food to get at least 2 meals out of each dish. The restaurant is very clean as well. We were the only ones in the restaurant tonight, it should honestly be packed. Go try this place! We will definitely be back!

1st thing's first........ Delicia was the waiter and omg I loved her customer service, and I loved the food !!!!!! This place is 100 % waaaayyyyy better than other African spots I've visited here in Des Moines. Nice and clean environment, NO bugs flying around as you eat like the other place has, multiple choice of Beverages, and my family and I had Egusi with delicious soft fufu . Alcohol is served here too beer: Modelo, wine coolers: Bahama momma, strawberry daiquiri. Soda: coke zero, sprite, ginger beer, Water and more...... easy to find parking behind the building, but it can be difficult to park if busy...... I WILL BE COMING HERE MORE. The total experience was awesome! Also yes highchairs available for your little one. I have discovered handicap parking is available, this place is convenient to gas stations, convenient to more restaurants, barbershop, and more.

If you’re wanting authentic African food, this is where you wanna be. I grew up eating home made Vietnamese food so I don’t mind how spicy they make their food. The spices are actually really warming and makes it feel like you’re having a comfort dish. I’ve tried this place twice now but we’re definitely coming back for more. Pictures are of okra soup and fufu, and fufu and soup.

The portion of meat was not worth $26+. The menu said $18 lady stated it was 3 years old. The air needed to be fixed so the atmosphere was cold and unable to sit and eat. For a first time experience I will not be returning.
