I love The spicy basil chicken from here with wide noodles on the side ! Chicken satay is a must ! And for my sweet tooth I definitely went with the mango sticky rice šŸ˜šŸ˜
Everything is delicious here appetizers, entrees, & desserts!
My family & I LOVE this place !!!

Was charged an additional $5 for duck in the of Thai AS well as additional $5 for beef in the pad see ew. I did not see any of those charges on the menu and was upset that it was not expressed. There was about two small pieces of duck in the pad Thai, which is really sad considering the extra charge. Both dishes were bland. Although, the Shrimp in a blanket were delicious.

The restaurant was pretty empty and I understand why.

I used to go to Mama Thai all the time and literally have not been there in yearsā€¦ Over five or six. Decided to stop in the other day with my daughter, and I was shocked to find that we were the only ones there during lunch. We ordered the pad Thai and the crab fried rice. The Pad Thai was a little too sweet for my taste, but the crab fried rice was delicious. I will be getting that again for sure. A little pricey but itā€™s a large portion so you can eat it over two days. Definitely glad we stopped in.

One of their signature dishes the duck is disgusting along with the so-called Special Sauce it's disgusting as well to say the least. Also the complimentary egg rolls with a $30 cash purchase is the other joke it's disgusting no flavor. No authentic music in the background it's just dead there it's so boring and the atmosphere is just depressing to say the least. The staff are not friendly the main girl up front only cares about money and it's just not good authentic food at all. The staff needs to go to Thailand and relearn how to make proper Thai food they are a disgrace to the Thai population and cater to people that don't know optimal taste obviously. The curry is not even good at all and lacks flavor the catfish is supposed to be another delicacy that unfortunately was another disappointment! I am warning you not to go here and to go somewhere else to your research accordingly and do not spend your hard-earned money here this place is a joke and nothing is authentic or tasteful here at all!

Love this neighborhood staple. The food is consistently deliciousā€¦I mean always. I recommend the shrimp in a blanket and spring rolls to start. Then the garlic pepper chicken, pad Thai, or Penang curry. These are my favorites but really you canā€™t go wrong. I tried the bbq pork noodles and they were delicious. Also their sweet & sour sauce is addictive. (Donā€™t drink it. You will feel like you want to but donā€™t. Just use the sauce on your food. Lol)
The staff is very friendly and attentive too. The prices are good as well but itā€™s all worth it at the end of the day. I will eat at this restaurant as long as it available.

Cozy little restaurant.

Food was great, albeit a bit pricey.

Not a fan of the mandatory 18% tip on parties more than 5. Either pay your employees better, or let the customer decide what they want to tip.

Overall excellent service.

Give it a try if you haven't been here.

UPDATE: Its been over a year since writing my review of Mama Thai, so I thought an update would be good. I just had the Crab Rangoon/ Golden Crab again, and I'm amazed at how good it is. The wontons are crispy, not burnt or soggy, there's an over abundance of crab filling, and the sauce they have is the best I've had. It is still as delicious as it was the first time I ate it. Oh the the rest of the food is damn good as.

ORIGINAL REVIEW

I've been eating here for almost 10 years. It was the first Thai restaurant I visited when we moved to the area, and still one of my 2 favorites near me.

The food is always delicious, whether eating in or takeout. Their Crab Rangoon is my family's favorite of all time. It's the right amount of crispy to filling and the dipping sauce I could just drink straight! I go for the pad Thai sometimes, and the Curry's the rest of the time. I had the curry fried rice a couple of times and it was excellent. All in all a great place for dinner or lunch.
