Mi Patria Ecuadorian - West Des Moines

Food is delicious! It 's homey. My top two picks are the Churrasco (Skirt Steak with an egg on top) and the Seco de Pollo (Dry of Chicken, but dont worry its not dry). I highly recommend dumping the salsa 'aji ' sauce on your rice or Empanada. If you just try it with a fork, it might be flavorless. So to try it put some rice to the side and dump a tsp amount, it is less spicy than a Dorito chip. This will increase the flavor profile. Lastly, I recommend getting them empanadas to go, sooo yummy you might regret not getting more. (Traducido por Google) ¡La comida es deliciosa! es hogareño Mis dos mejores opciones son el churrasco (filete de falda con un huevo encima) y el seco de pollo (pollo seco, pero no te preocupes, no está seco). Recomiendo encarecidamente verter la salsa 'aji ' en su arroz o empanada. Si solo lo pruebas con un tenedor, puede que no tenga sabor. Así que para probarlo pon un poco de arroz al lado y vierte una cucharadita, es menos picante que un chip Dorito. Esto aumentará el perfil de sabor. Por último, recomiendo pedir empanadas para llevar, tan ricas que tal vez te arrepientas de no haber comprado más.

Amazing chap. Was a bit skeptical to try Oktopus in Iowa, but the Ceviche Mixto far exceeds all expectations. If you want something different and original, come in here.

I cost 5* reviews sparingly, reserve them for those who really stand above the others and I think this place deserves it. We stayed here looking for ceviche restaurants and then seeing that this place was also in my list to go. Although it took a few minutes to be recognized even at the front door waiting to be seated, from there we were constantly impressed. Our waitress was energetic, knowledgeable and decided on food on the menu what I want in a restaurant server. On their recommendations we started with a Margarita and Michelada with Modelo (see picture). They use their own mix in the michelada and while I can't claim to be an aficianado, this was the best thing I had in my life (so far... I recommend you try it spicy, light and not excessively salty! For our main course (and again on the waiter 'Recommendation , I had the Ceviche Mixto and my wife ordered the Churrasco (see pictures). Both were delicious, especially with the homemade green spicy sauce that the waitress brought out to try. As good as the main course was, it became even better. For dessert or waitress the Coconut Fried Banana hit with ice cream (see picture and I can't even begin to describe how delicious that was! A large fried coconut coating on the banana, which was so well enriched with the ice. Finally, with our stomach plump full of amazing food, the waitress reminded us to come back to try other menu items... because they try so many other great flavors! We can't wait back!

Servicio fantástico! Googled a place to eat on our way through and we’re NOT disappointed! New delicious flavors and we couldn’t finish it all. Mira was an attentive and sweet server don’t waste your time anywhere else in Des Moines!

Great portions, delicious food, great atmosphere and the staff was super friendly. I lived the salsa they had and made sure to devour all of it. It was nice to find a restaurant offering something different in town.
