    Combo Chicken Rice
    Katherine G.

    I really liked this spot! I didn't realize it was so popular too. I came for lunch on a long weekend and we had to put our name on the waitlist. The inside isn't too big but there are plenty of tables, and we waited around 15 minutes before getting seated. I got the combo chicken rice plate, which came with half poached chicken and half fried along with rice, soup, and some veggies. The poached chicken was absolutely perfect - it was so tender, soft, and juicy. I don't know how they got it that texture but it's amazing! The crispy chicken was also good, but a tad on the drier side. I also enjoyed the sauces they came with. The soup was comforting and clean and the rice was fragrant as well. Overall, highly recommend if you're craving hainese chicken rice!

    ​A good spot for Hainanese chicken. I love that it's boneless and that the combo $21 (crispy and poached chicken) comes with a good amount of food. It includes a side of pickled veggies and soup, both of which I thought were quite tasty. We also tried the kuy teav noodle soup $19, the only noodle soup on the entire menu. It comes with rice noodles, ground pork, shrimp, pork liver, heart, meatballs, and sliced pork. All of the ingredients were fresh, though the sliced pork was a bit too dry. ​We ordered our food using the QR code on the table, so there wasn't much service. I really like that you can join the Yelp waitlist online, which worked out perfectly since we were only a few minutes away. It gets quite loud during the lunch hour, but overall, the food was tasty and I'll be back. It's already a regular spot for my husband since it's close to his work, but this was my first time here and I will definitely return more frequently.

    I went to Amas Chicken and it was sooo good--I can't believe it took me this long to finally visit. It's a fusion of Cambodian and Chinese food, and everything tasted amazing. I got the plate with both fried chicken and boiled chicken. The chicken was super flavorful on its own, but the sauces really took it to the next level. My favorite was definitely the spicy chili sauce--it was so good. I'll 100% be coming back.

    Combo Chicken Rice

    Great place when you're craving Hainanese Chicken. I had the combo chicken rice, which comes with your lighter Hainanese chicken and fried chicken. The Hainanese chicken was so tender and almost pure. It had depth and complemented the chicken fat infused rice. It's a nice balance and you can dip sauce into it if you like more intense flavors. I also liked the fried chicken because it had more texture to a tender dish and I found it nice to go back and forth. We also tried the noodles and it was decent and had a slow burn (spicy) to it but i like the rice dishes the best. The combo chicken was more than enough food for me - I left very full. Ambiance is casual. We arrived on Friday around 6:45pm, and joined a waitlist of 9 for 2 ppl. We waited about 25 minutes for a table. You sit down, order via QR code, and food comes out! Service was decent - nice and friendly and attentive - it's not a place where they'll wait on you regularly but it's also not that kind of setting. Parking is either on the street or in the H Mart complex parking lot. All in all - great eatery

    My friends Combo Chicken Rice

    Had been wanting to try A Ma for awhile when people talk about the best chicken and rice this place comes up a lot. I did grow up eating it but the two friends I visited did one of Singaporean the other is Chinese but was born in Malaysia. They have very high expectations for this dish. I've probably had it at four other locations around greater Seattle. The rice and broth are the best part here some other places the rice has been to wet and the broth hasn't been as flavorful. The ginger scallion sauce and the pickled garlic are wonderful accompaniments. Couldn't get enough of that garlic. Also appreciate the pickled veggies that come with the dish. We also ordered a bowl of the pork broth to share. The space is bright and clean. Love the antique items and the items that represent the owners culture. The dishes came out quickly. Service was fine not above and beyond but attentive as needed. Portion was generous, would return when in the area.

    So glad I finally got to try A Ma! Came by at lunchtime on a Sunday and waited in line for 5 minutes before we got seated. Service was efficient - the food came out quickly and the servers seemed attentive. The store itself wasn't super large but they were able to fit a lot of us in there. Parking was easy in the big plaza lot. I got the combo chicken plate, and everything tasted really fresh. The chicken was perfectly cooked, and the batter of the fried chicken was crispy and surprisingly yummy. Both paired so well with the two tangy sauces the dish came with. The included broth was very comforting and wholesome. If I had one piece of feedback, it would be that I wish we got just a few more pickled veggies. I definitely recommend this spot - there's a reason it's so popular!

    Came here at 3pm on a Monday and was immediately sat, whenever I would pass by during lunch time there would be a line out the door. The space is well decorated, this is one of the few Cambodian restaurants I've tried in the Seattle area. Easy parking in Redmond Town Center. At the table it looked like you can order by QR code but the waiter was nice and came over to take my order. The food came out so quickly I was shocked at their speed! The dish is so well presented on the tray with the fresh greens on the side, two sauces, soup and then the main chicken/rice dish. There are additional chili oil, scallion oil and ginger/scallion oil on the side of the table. The chicken was so moist & tender. The sauces and chili oil gave it a kick I was looking for so definitely recommend it. 10/10 recommend, tasted and felt like comfort food, will be back.

    This was my first time trying these dishes, and I really enjoyed them! The restaurant is super cute and the employees were very nice! It's a smaller restaurant and has a very cozy feel. We ordered the combo chicken rice and kuy teav noodle soup. I really enjoyed both! The food was mild in flavor and easy to eat. Like others have said, I think this would be the perfect meal to have when you're sick or low energy! I don't know how it compares to other similar restaurants, but I know that I liked it! I would definitely come back again!

    Bone soup -SO GOOD!
    Naomi Z.

    Seriously glad Redmond town center has this place because it SO delicious and simple! It's one of those places I don't even care about the decor because the food is so good. I love their chicken and rice, you'll probably enjoy crispy more but both are good- and generous portions. I love the soup, taste so flavorful. I especially love the pickled garlic that's on each table. I love everything I've tried here. The service is typically quick. Coming back asap.

    Great Cambodian restaurant for chicken/rice dishes! I had their combo chicken rice dish and it was very delicious! It came with steamed and fried chicken. It also came with sauces, broth, veggies, pickled veggies, and well seasoned rice. The steamed chicken went very well with their dipping sauce. The were two kinds; one salty/sweet, and one that's like spicy fish sauce (my favorite). The broth was flavorful and the seasoned rice was so good. The service was good. The server quickly took our order and the food came out pretty quickly. After they delivered the food, there wasn't much service afterwards. The ambiance was good. Nicely decorated inside. The place was busy on a random Thursday afternoon, so I'm guessing this place is popular. Definitely would come back!

    Fantastic chicken rice place! Chicken rice is one of my favorite dishes and I love finding a good spot. Would recommend ordering the poached chicken here (as is typically recommended), but we tried the fried chicken as well. The fried chicken was just a little overcooked and dry, but the poached chicken was amazing! Note that the chicken flavor in the rice is slightly weaker than some other chicken rice restaurants, but I think they do this because if you add any of the sauces they provide it really brings it out (plus you can always use some of the soup if you want) so you can season it to your taste. Their sauces are great, as well as the toppings that come on the side (e.g. fermented green garlic, chili oil, etc.). Generous serving of chicken as you can see from the picture! There can be a wait (we waited about 15 minutes to be seated at dinner time on a weekday), but they have a tablet with the Yelp waitlist in front so if the wait is long you can put your name down and go do something else.

    We dropped my husband's car off at the shop and ended up nearby, so we looked up places to eat and I'm so glad we found A Ma Chicken Rice . I was craving something simple and comforting, and this hit deep. Their chicken and rice instantly took me back to my childhood my grandma used to make chicken and rice with hot oil and scallions, and this felt just as nostalgic. The chicken was insanely juicy and tender, and the portion was HUGE for $19.50. Honestly, my husband and I could've shared one plate, but we each got our own (no regrets ). It also comes with little side dishes like soup and pickled veggies, which made it feel like such a complete, thoughtful meal. The condiments deserve their own shoutout warm, fragrant, and tasting like they were just made fresh. They really elevate the dish and make the simple chicken and rice shine. That's the star here, no question. They do have other dishes and drinks too crispy chicken rice and some soup dishes I already want to try next time. Service was good, and while the space is pretty small, it fills up fast. We came right when they opened and it still got busy quickly. If we lived closer, we'd be here all the time. This place is a must try.

    m Dried Noodles (Spicy)

    It's 11am on a Saturday, they JUST opened, but it's already SO busy with patrons and pickups -- and for good reason! I tried the other dry noodle dish Kuy Teav Kouk and I think I may have a new favorite! The broth is so light, fragrant, and rich with flavor. The flavor profile is so savory, tangy, and umami. I love adding extra ginger scallion oil and pickled garlic. Portions are generous! The vibe feels a lot faster-paced than when I've been here last, but it's a lot busier than last time! Service was super quick and convenient I'll certainly be back again!

If the food was good, I'd be OK with it -- but this was the saltiest meal I've ever had in my entire life. I don't know how else to put it. The chicken in the sliders was coated in powder that hurt my mouth, the sauce hurt too, the pickles were even worse, and even the fries and mac&cheese were too salty! All of this compounded like crazy and there was just nothing you could do to escape it. I choked this down, really. The chicken wasn't very close to being juicy. It was expensive too, can't just let it go to waste. One star for the very secure togo packaging and another for the nice presentation (bright reds, greens, yellows) it had. But man, the spice isn't good (or there) and the salt is just awful!

Our family took advantage of the chicken's ability to maintain their crispiness, even for carry-out. It was OK, though a little confusing. Once we settled on KFC for dinner, our hosts (daughter and son-in-law) suggested carryout from 'The Third Place', which was a little out of the way from where we were. It is the Third restaurant opened by the owner, all Seattle area locations known for her KFC (Shin Sung Korean restaurant with Underground Kitchen and the since closed Yeon's Chicken). The chicken was ordered beforehand, and because it is prepared fresh when ordered, it took a bit of time for the order to be complete. There is a limited amount of sauce choices, so we chose Honey Garlic ($23.99) and the classic Yangnyum ($23.99), both marked as Whole Chicken size. Also a side order of french fries ($7.99) completed the order. The fries were good: nice and hot, heavily battered potatoes, providing a nice amount of carbs to go with the fried chicken. The chicken came with pickled radish (chicken-mu) which for me is a must, and it was good. In terms of the chicken, they were all wings, which isn't what I expected: getting the breast and thigh pieces chopped into bite-size pieces, battered and sauced, is what makes it KFC, vs all wings which is more like a Buffalo wing restaurant. So we still got the expected 14 pieces, but they were all wings (flats and drums). I thought the sauces were fine (intentionally ordered mild), and the chicken did maintain a crunch (though not as shattering as the best we've had).
