John, I live in Ames, and right off the top of my head I can't think of much. The only place I've ever gotten hot food was on Welch (in campustown) and called Sukothai -- but it has different owners, a different name, and I've heard bad things about them. Don't know if it has changed for the better recently or not. They had "angry" dishes -- chicken, shrimp, beef, and combo. It used to be really good. How long are you going to be in town?
