I had no idea what to expect when I walked over to the counter of this restaurant. I remember seeing the video on Instagram about how this was one of the best spots in Austin, and they couldn't have been more right. The balance of flavors and spices are out of this world, and they have set a new bar in Asian cuisine in my life. The surrounding area had nice seating and views, and the service was proper and kind. 10/10 I will be back again and I would highly recommend! read more

Mam Mam - Pork belly - Asian Fusion Near Me - Austin, Texas

I checked this place out due to a special they were having. I can't recall the Vietnamese name but it's a fried rice cake and egg dish! I really liked it but I do wish the rice cake was crispier--we did pre order and I'm not sure if that impacted the texture. My husband got the broken rice dish which I thought was good but he prefers a traditional, non-rib style. This place is a big hidden in Springdale General and occupies a small corner. I hadn't been in this area for a hot minute but it's developed into quite a bustling food court with other small businesses to check out around the area. Their menu is small but follow on Instagram for any special dishes! read more

Loved all the dishes here. Very flavorful. Highly recommend the Chicken and rice and the ribs and rice. Ribs come with bì and the best chả trứng (egg loaf) in town!! Good chả trứng is hard to find, most are dry and not flavorful. Order ahead recommended! read more

Mam Mam - Asian Fusion Near Me - Austin, Texas

I feel like I've been eating so good recently and just giving out 5 stars left and right, but Mam Mam deserves it! In the springdale general buildings, Mam Mam is located in a cute and convenient little food hall, with lots of tables for working and eating. We got the pork belly vermicelli, and that first bite of pork belly really got me good. It's so meaty and has such a good chew to it, not too greasy, and I love the fried breading on the outside, for a slight crunch. The noodles were bouncy, the sauce was delicious. And the pickled veggies and cucumbers were perfect for off setting all the meat. Would definitely go back to try some of the other menu options! read more

Mam Mam - Pork belly vermicelli - Asian Fusion Near Me - Austin, Texas

Rating: 4.4/5 [take out] We placed an online order for a late lunch on a Thursday, and it was ready within 25 minutes. They're located inside Wingman Kitchen, which doesn't have a staffed front counter. However, you can see directly into the kitchen, and when we arrived, someone noticed us and came out to hand us our order. Fish Sauce Caramel Wings ($12 | GF): These were chicken wings and drumsticks coated in a fish sauce caramel, topped with chopped herbs, pickled chilies, and fried garlic. The pieces were large and packed with umami. The flavors were good, but the fish sauce left a slightly fishy aftertaste that I didn't enjoy. A few of the drumsticks were red near the bone, and when we brought it to their attention, they refunded us. Ba's Egg Roll ($5 | GF): A large, gluten-free pork egg roll served over a bed of lettuce and herbs with a side of fish sauce. It was flavorful, crispy, and satisfying. The wrapper had a unique texture--slightly chewy and a bit sticky on the teeth--but not a big issue. Pork Belly Vermicelli ($14 | GF): Vermicelli noodles topped with fried pork belly, mixed herbs, ginger scallion oil, crushed peanuts, and served with a side of nuoc mam cham. The pork belly was quite fatty, thinly sliced, and had a nice crispy edge. Unfortunately, it lacked the bold flavor I was expecting and reminded me a bit of boiled pork like bossam. Overall, the dish didn't stand out, and I'd probably skip it next time. read more

The portion sizes of the food here are insanely large relative to the price that you pay! With one appetizer and one entree, you could probably have enough for two different meals. It's built inside this larger complex, so you have the choice between taking it to go or eating it there in the shared space between several restaurants in the building. MUST GET: the fish sauce chicken wings. The meat is juicy inside but the skin is perfectly THICK and crispy on the outside. The sauce is the perfect hints of sweet and funk and they give you some fat full wings and drumsticks. None of the skimpy tiny chicken wings here. Shared between two people, this itself could be a lunch. This was my favorite thing on the menu. The poached chicken over chicken oil rice is delightful. The sauce is sweet and spicy to dip the chicken in. No bones in this chicken, for those who are used to that in chicken over Hainanese rice. read more

Mam Mam blew me away! The roti canai was a one-bite wonder--flaky roti, rich curry, and tangy pickles combined for an explosion of flavor. The chicken and rice? Pure fatty, flavorful bliss. I can't wait to come back to this pop-up and taste more! read more

On Saturday, a friend and I did a workout at Central Athlete. We were super hungry afterwards and searched the restaurants in the complex. Man Mam looked the most promising, as we both love Asian food. We ordered the Pork Belly Vermicelli from the counter and decided to split it. The dish contains fried pork belly (it was so deans crunchy), Vermicelli rice noodles, mixed herbs, pickled vegetables, and fried shallots. Topped with fish sauce dressing and crushed peanuts, this dish is a winner! They brought the dish within five minutes, allowing us to assuage our hunger quickly. There are plenty of places to sit and eat near the restaurant in the food court. The whole ambiance is pleasant for casual dining. read more

Mam Mam's is such a happy, healthy marriage of southeast Asian flavors. I love the citrusy undertones of the both the papaya and the steak salads, as well as the Tom Yum pasta. These creations are not to be confused with your sad little side salads--they are substantial, meal-like dishes that are packed with robust flavors. I got to try their food in Mansfield, where the birthday girls' parents had the connections to get Mam Mam catered, but I'm not sure if catering is a normal thing they offer, especially this far north of ATX. Every dish was outstanding. I took gallon-bags of food from the party, and I'm so excited to eat it all again tomorrow! read more

Mam Mam - Huge and hearty wings - Asian Fusion Near Me - Austin, Texas

The service at this ghost kitchen was amazing. The employee brought us food directly to our table even though we were supposed to go get it when the buzzer went off. My friend and I got the Larb Heb and the Texas kaya toast. The larb heb was interesting - it was weirdly spicy and very vinegary. I was not super impressive but the mushrooms were a good texture. The texas kaya toast was delicious!!! It was crispy and fresh. The bread was soft in the middle like milk bread. The pandan dip was so flavorful and delicious as well! read more

Tucked away in the back corner of Springdale General, Mam Mam's is serving up hearty Southeast Asian dishes. The hot yai fried chicken hit the spot! It was a generous portion of chicken quarters with chicken fat rice. It came with 2 sauces: a cilantro mint that had a nice kick and a more classic sweet chili vinegar. The gaeng neur roti was also a hit. The beef cheek was tender and the curry was so rich and full of flavor. The portions were generous as well, as it included both roti and rice. The roti by itself was delicious; buttery, flaky goodness. Well worth the visit! read more

Sooo delicious! Found this Thai/SE Asian place inside Springdale General. Their portions are filling, pricing is reasonable, and most importantly, the food is delcious! Give it a try! We got chicken and rice and gaeng neur roti, which comes with curry. I want to try the Kaya Texas Toast next time! I have had Kaya toast in Singapore before and that was delicious so I'm excited. read more

It's located inside the same complex as Medici coffee and near the barbershop. The food menu is small, but the food is delicious! I got the fried chicken and the meat inside was juicy while the skin was crispy and so flavorful. My friends got the chicken and rice (very soft and healthy) and the pork belly vermicelli too. The portion is really good for the price! They only open on the weekend at this location so make sure to check their schedule read more

Mam Mam - Fried chicken - Asian Fusion Near Me - Austin, Texas

This is the best spot to replace my beloved chicken rice joe that left Austin about two years ago or so. Easy to grab, well priced, quick, and delicious food. This place is SO good, it's almost criminal. The chef/owner is apparently Vietnamese but learned from a Thai chef before starting Mam Mam. My partner and I are Vietnamese and Thai respectively, and we were both super happy with what we got. I can't say enough good things about this little restaurant tucked in the back. I tried a bit of everything we ordered, but our order consisted of Hat Yai Fried Chicken, Chicken & Rice, and the Pork Ribs for the mains. We also added Kaya Toast that came with a pandan dip and a canned Yeo's chrysanthemum tea (of course, those are just canned drinks but I always enjoy both the chrysanthemum tea and the white gourd drink). The favorites were definitely the hat yai fried chicken with its sweet chili vinegar sauce and cilantro mint sauce, but the pork ribs were a very close second. Both were generous with the protein. The chicken and rice was good and great for a lighter meal than the others, plus the ginger lime fish sauce was great. I ended up using all the sauces and alternated to give myself the full experience of their options, and WOW was it amazing! I didn't end up trying the toast until I got home and heated the toast up for 15 seconds in the microwave, but it unfortunately was gone in about 10 seconds due to how good it was dipped in the pandan sauce. This is a MUST get, even if you aren't currently hungry for dessert. In addition, the service was great. The man up front was informative and sweet. I will 100% be back... probably every month if not every week! read more

Mam Mam - Hat yai fried chicken, ribs, and chicken & rice - Asian Fusion Near Me - Austin, Texas

I'm so grateful that Austin has Mam Mam -- the food here is truly incredible! The service is always so friendly and quick. So far I've tried the following: Papaya Salad: 5/5 Refreshing, tangy, delicious! It's so good on a hot day! Chicken & Rice: 5/5 OMG, just like Hainanese chicken rice! The chicken is so juicy and flavorful and I love the broth that comes with it. I could literally just eat the chicken fat rice by itself and be content. Charcoal-grilled pork ribs: 5/5 I love that you can taste the char and it just adds to the flavor of the ribs. They are so juicy and dare I say, better than a lot of bbq spots around town. Gaeng Neur Roti: 5/5 This is my absolute favorite dish on the menu. The beef cheek and curry is what dreams are made of, and the roti is so flaky and buttery. I love this place so much and am always bringing my friends and out-of-town visitors to enjoy. I recently had a conversation about my top 5 favorite places to eat in Austin, and Mam Mam definitely falls into that top 5! read more

We came on a Sunday afternoon for lunch and were so impressed!! Everything was incredible! Fresh, flavorful and huge portions! We got two egg rolls (AMAZING! I hope they keep these forever) and the fried chicken and rice and grilled ribs too. Everything was just the right flavors and so fresh and tasted great. Probably the best egg rolls we have ever had to be honest!! They have indoor and shaded outdoor seating in case you want to bring your dogs! Service was quick and easy! The location is super cute with many other shops in the building. read more

Checked in here over the weekend. I came with just 30 minutes to spare, and I am glad I did. The chicken and rice was amazing, the chicken was extremely flavorful and juicy, and the rice was just perfect! I was a little annoyed at myself for waiting until closing to arrive, and so I missed out on many of their other dishes, I will definitely be back! Do yourself a favor and swing by Mam Mam, they are tucked in the back of the food hall (just follow the signs). Just make sure not to make the same mistake as I did, and come too late. read more

The food is amazing. We ordered the fish sauce chicken wings. That's a 10/10 must have. It has the right crunch and the sauce is not too sweet with a little tang. We also ordered the Hat Yai chicken rice, the pork belly vermicelli and the beef cheek curry with roti. Our favorite is the pork belly vermicelli. A perfect summer light dish. We placed the order online so by the time we arrive our food is ready so that's the way to go. It has a huge patio area you could bring your dog with. Go check it out and support small businesses. read more

It's located in the same building as Medici in case you can't find it! The food is really good, but a tad salty (might just be me). The fried chicken is cooked to perfection with the perfect crunchy exterior and juicy inside. The roti has generous amounts of beef and the bread they serve with it is AMAZING!!! So flaky and the perfect complement to the roti. It also comes with rice which is great. We also ordered the chicken wings with the fish caramel sauce. Great size wings and again, perfectly cooked and tossed in a delicious sauce. The owner and workers are so friendly and will take the time to answer any questions and provide recommendations. There's no dedicated seating for Mam Mam and more communal seating both indoors and outdoors. Definitely will come back! read more

Mam Mam - Asian Fusion Near Me - Austin, Texas

I just picked up my lunch order here, and it was such a delicious meal. I picked up my order from the kitchen in Building 1 (don't follow Google maps because the pin places it somewhere near Building 4). I'm not sure if that's their permanent location or not. I ordered for a pick-up the night before, and they were super on time with making sure my food was ready. I've been craving Thai chicken + rice ever since a popular place up north had to close and find a new storefront. It was a pretty far drive for me, but it was definitely worth it. Mam Mam is on the slightly pricier side ($27 total for two things), but the portion sizes aren't bad at at all. I ordered the papaya salad, and it was a massive portion size for an appetizer. They gave me a healthy number of sesame chips as well. I love papaya salad, and I will never pass on the opportunity to order it if it's available. It's such a refreshing and light appetizer. Mam Mam's papaya salad is awesome. It's wonderfully seasoned, so it's tart yet sweet. They add lots of peanuts and sauce, so every piece of papaya is coated really well. I love the addition of the sesame chips. I didn't think I would really eat them, but every bite of papaya salad + sesame chip was a wonder. The chicken and rice was arguably even better. It's a bit different than other Thai chicken + rice I've had, but it was so delicious. They give such a generous amount of chicken, which is so rare. I actually had a large piece of chicken with every bite of rice. Usually, I'm just eating rice at the end because many places aren't as generous with their chicken portions. I LOVED the sauce it came with--it was sour and spicy, and it also coated the entire plate beautifully. Lastly, I'm so happy it came with a side of papaya! I highly recommend mixing the rice, chicken, and papaya. I loved Mam Mam and am so happy Austin is building out its Asian food scene. The only unfortunate con to Mam Mam is how far away it is from me, but I see myself making the trek down south just because of how good the food is. I'll try their pastries/desserts next time--they sound awesome. I highly recommend supporting Mam Mam and giving them a try! They've definitely gained a fan. read more

Was playing pickleball at Eastside Paddle Club and needed a lunch break. A friend recommended Mam Mam which was nearby. Ordered the Chicken and Rice and wow it was amazing. The chicken was sooooo moist. The green onion and fried onion garnish was excellent. The fish sauce was great.The pickled vegetables was a great complement. It came with a side of chicken broth which was perfect in this cold weather. Will definitely be back as I was between ordering this dish and the fried chicken dish. read more

TLDR; Run. Don't sleep on this. Who knows how long Mam.Mam will grace us at Wingman's and pray for a perm space. Chicken & Rice I love how this simple dish is done so well here. Starting with the main attraction, the chicken. Tender like filet mignon with a beautiful thin layer of skin and any excess fat removed. Lying on a bed of delicately flavored chicken fat rice, each kernel still distinct and not overlseasoned. Pairing the chicken and rice with the shallots and the savory sweet and light spice of the ginger lime sauce. Each bite is gold. Thank you Mam.Mam!! Location In the same building as the Medici on Springdale, around the corner from Julie Myrtle. Lots of open seating indoors and out with free wifi (although the connection can be unstable). Plenty of parking. Verdict & Wish List Five Stars!! Six, if they had more hours. Currently open limited hours Thursday through Saturday. I would have preferred less salt in the broth. Hope they transition to a permanent space. read more

Service was normal for a food mart type of deal. But the food was absolutely gross. Don't get the Congee, it's basically ginger spiced oatmeal with boiled chicken. I paid an extra $5 for the double portion and it brought the total chicken amount to half a breast.... read more

This is one of my new favorite spots in Austin! I came here initially for the chicken rice, which was amazing! The chicken fat rice is flavored so well and the chicken is juicy and moist. My favorite item was the khao soi. Honestly probably the best khao soi I've had in Austin. read more

Delicious! Pop-up kitchen in Springdale. Their curry and roti was my absolute favorite and honestly reminded me a bit of the curry my Singaporean grandma cooks. Their papaya salad is zesty, and their chicken rice is well-seasoned. Great spot, and also a great option for catering! read more

Mam Mam is located in a food hall (building 1 specifically). When I first walked in I was a bit confused but luckily they have signs to point you in the right direction. I placed my order online for pickup, and the man who greeted me at the counter and handed me my order was so kind with a warm/refreshing smile. I ordered the regular chicken and rice which came with a side of soup. It was super yummy and made for a great lunch. I truly love chicken and rice so much so I'm glad there's another option in Austin to turn to for it. read more

This place is SOOO amazing and on point with the chicken and rice especially but everything is so good. I grew up eating this in many variations and it's up to par with New York and Houston's take on this southeast cuisine. For someone who may not have grown up eating this, it definitely has 1000x more flavor than what you might think for chicken and rice. The roti and beef cheek is EVERYTHING. This has been on my list for so long and will be back again and again!!! read more

The chicken rice was soooo gooood! The fried chicken was just as good -- really crisp skin and super tender inside. I didn't try the beef cheek curry but I did have a bite of the roti and it was flaky AF. Finished off with the kaya pandan toast which was perfection. read more

I went with a group of seven this past weekend and ordered the entire menu.. it did not disappoint! We were greeted instantly when we walked up to the counter and everyone was super friendly. Each entrée was full of flavor and hit the spot! They were also very generous with their portions which was great for our big party. I highly recommend the Hat Yai fried chicken, which has a nice crispy skin and a juicy center! Pair it with the larb hed and you have the perfect meal! Everything was mouthwatering so you can't really go wrong with anything on their menu. Honorable mention for the charcoal grilled ribs and Texas toast Kaya that were a hit with other members of the group. We are all definitely going to be frequenting this hidden gem! read more

Everyone should try the NS14 with flat rice noodles. It's so good! Full of flavor and really spicy!

Took my family here and got whatever was available on the menu. I believe we ordered about eight items (we came with an empty stomach lol) and it was ready super fast. Our favorites were the chicken and rice, charcoal grilled ribs, larb hed, and Texas toast kaya. For our family of four (two adults/two teens), this was actually quite filling and we ended up with leftovers. Everything was presented beautifully and was so delicious. The food is carefully packed in take out containers so it's great if you need to bring it home or to the office. We LOVED the Kaya toast that came with a silky smooth pandan sauce. Not too sweet! This dessert is life changing and seriously worth trying. This will be a must have each time we come! I can see why they're getting the praise they deserve. Mam Mam certainly hit the mark on these southeastern Asian flavors; bravo to the chef! They also do catering which is a huge plus. We will be ordering that in the future. Thank you for a great overall experience! read more
