Alright so with the school year coming up I am making it my mission to try more of the local cuisine in Ames. I figure, where better than here to get opinions on the best restaurants in town? So fire away, I'd appreciate any and all suggestions.

Way overrated. I would go with Little Taipei.
Edit: Actually if you like BBQ a lot, HP is the best, im not saying it's bad, just not my favorite type of food.

I like HP but you are opening up a can of worms.
Pazessco, the Spice, and the Cafe have been recent favorites.
I reject your reality and substitute my own.
Besides, anything to stir up a little controversy and get off the subject of conference type stuff.
Is it really necessary to go through this again? Seems like we do about 3-4 times every year.
Do a search.Heres a couple of recent ones.

Oh I do like it but you will start the: it isn't really BBQ comments, etc from people.
If I had any rep left to give out, I would give you some right this minute. Unfortunately, I have none. But you pretty much hit just about every restaurant on my list.
Although, I would add La Fuente, and Es Tas. Steak tacos at Es Tas? Delicious.
Cocost and El Azteca. Throw in HP and that is all you will need to survive, maybe Great Plains every now and then.
Tulsa doesn't count. I just left there yesterday, and the best they can do is famous dave's.Being in the south, I believe I am fully qualified to judge what is and isn't BBQ.
Stop the bus.
Argued this many times on CF, but:
Battles >>>>> Hickory Park. / Thread.
Yeah, Olde Main has a varied menu and everything tastes great! Cafe Northwest used to have killer steaks and Greek food, haven't been there for quite a while, tho'. (we don't go out much anymore).
