    This place has a good hainanese chicken, and their bone broth was surprisingly good for the price I honestly didn't think it would this much meat. We ordered take out which came out in good time. They're definitely popular since when I got there it's pretty full.

    my favorite chicken and rice spot in the area! i always go for the combo to get steamed and crispy chicken! both are so flavorful and i love the variety of sauces they provide as well. the chicken is very juicy and tender. the broth and rice are also so flavorful even though they may seem simple. the service is quick but highly recommend getting here early as tables fill up quick.

    Combo Chicken Rice

    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!

    We got here around 6:15 on a Friday. The place was packed already. You can add your group into the waitlist with the iPad outside of the dining area. After 39 minutes, we were seated. Ordering is done via your phone camera and WR vide on the table. We ordered the classic chicken and rice plate as well as the A Ma dry noodle bowl. The chicken plate had chicken that was cooked well and was not dry. It just didn't have any taste. The rice has more seasoning than the chicken. The dry noodle bowl was good and had a bit of spice. Not really going to come back. Lots of other food I rather eat

    Classic chicken rice

    Their Classic chicken rice is one of my favorites in Seattle. Perfectly cooked. If you like fried chicken, you can get to combo and it comes with both types of chicken. I'm traditional so I prefer just the classic. They also have noodle soup options as well if you're not a fan of chicken and 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
    Wendy K.

    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.

    Combo chicken plate

    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!

    Combo Chicken Rice
    Kathryn O.

    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.

    Emma S.

    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.

    It was my first time having lunch at Angkor Wok, and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The food…read morewas incredibly authentic and delicious, and every dish I tried was a standout. The first dish was KOR TREI, featuring caramelized catfish nuggets. They were absolutely amazing! I only wished they came with a side of sliced cucumber and mint, which I often see served with Khmer dishes back home. The presentation was beautiful, served sizzling on a hot iron plate. The only downside was that some of the sauce splattered onto the table and hardened, making it a little difficult to scoop up every last bit with the rice. The second dish was SOMLOH MACHU SRAE, a traditional sour fish soup served in a small hot pot. It was rich, flavorful, and comforting, and I was pleasantly surprised that the fish was boneless and perfectly cooked. The third dish, NGOM SDOV, was a fish and noodle salad bursting with an incredible harmony of spicy, bitter, sweet, sour, and salty flavors. The crispy, well-seasoned fish nuggets added the perfect texture to every bite. I absolutely loved all three fish dishes, although next time I think I'll branch out and try some beef or pork dishes to experience more of what Angkor Wok has to offer. Overall, I highly recommend calling ahead, ordering a variety of dishes, and coming hungry. There's something for everyone, and I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

    Rare to find a Cambodian joint in WA so gotta appreciate all the spots that do exist…read more This place has been such a dope addition to UD. I feel like there are so many similar types of food in the area, so having something like Angkor Wok is a breath of fresh air. I've had a number of things on their menu. My favorites are probably their hot pot options, the fish curry, and the chicken wings (or popcorn chicken). IMO as w most Asian restaurants, it's best to come here w a group so yall can do family style and get a taste of everything.

    We came here for dinner…read more Food: The dish we got with the chickpea and tofu curry was mind blowing. The flavor profile is a mix of Indian and Asian so if you like that type of food, you will definitely love the different taste of food at this restaurant. The quantity was appreciable, one dish is enough for two people to share, which I really appreciate in this market as a lot of other vendors are decreasing the quantity of food. It came with cucumbers and fried peanuts, both which added another taste element to the dish. We also had the coconut curry noodles, also delicious and would be even more amazing on a rainy day. We got both with tofu and vegetarian options. However, I am confident that with chicken or prawns it would be equally if not more delicious. Service: We were seated quickly, they came to get our orders very fast, and the food came promptly as well. Ambience: It is a Malaysian restaurant and the inside decor is really neat and a fun experience. It's a great day spot or also a great spot for families.

The Lemongrass Chicken had incredible flavor, especially the broth, which was so good it's worth taking home if you don't finish it. The only downside was navigating all the bones. The Drunken Chicken ended up being my favorite main dish. It reminded me of sweet-and-sour chicken, but without the overwhelming sweetness that usually takes over the dish. A quick heads up: definitely make a reservation if you can because this place gets BUSY. We lucked out and snagged the last four seats at the bar. Even with the crowd, the service was friendly, attentive, and the food came out surprisingly fast. Monsoon is one of those places where you immediately start planning what you'll order next time before you've even left the restaurant.

The skewers and wings were decent. The filling of the lettuce wrap had more liquid than expected so a little bit messy. Got their coconut martini which was pretty sweet. For mains, I got the seven-spice beef. It was mildly sweet, and since it's flank and not tenderized, so it was a little tough. Not really my cup of tea. They bring out plates of rice to share. Got chocolate mousse for dessert and it was alright. Most of the desserts were under $10 but portions are pretty small (one scoop of gelato or equivalent). Prices are those of a middle-end restaurant. I think our group averaged $70-80 per person. Maybe some of the other mains would be better.
