Mama Bangkok

Simply

1.0

UPDATE: The food gave me food poisoning. I felt unwell the entire evening following & then threw up. DO NOT EAT HERE

Everything is awkward with mama bankok: the location is awkward, looking through the gigantic menu plastered on the wall is awkward, ordering through their tablet is awkward, the service is awkward, the restrictive limits on how to pay is awkward, & the lack of chopsticks is awkward. Even the seating is awkward.

They bumped their price by a lot (pad thai chicken used to be 12, it costs me 19 total now) & I disagree with all the other comments saying this is the best pad thai or a very authentic one. I found it to be closer in taste to a Thai Express pad thai. Mine in particular was so salty I couldn't have more than a few bites.

By the 1st of january 2026 they are going to switch to cash only. That paired with everything else (especially the price bump), I don't see why you would ever choose this place over the hundred other asian restaurants around.

I often go there when I don't want to cook & wanna eat something really good for a low price (for how much is served). The food is really good & one meal is actually two meals. Worth it. I don't understand the 3.4 review honestly.

Delicious breaded pork pad thai. Portion is twice as big & way better flavoured compared to thai franchise place. Freshness of ingredients stands out in the dish & the al dente on the rice noodles was right on spot. Already said it was delicious. They have a home made "very hot pepper sauce" which I enjoyed. Yes, there is a self ordering touchscreen that you need to scroll on the screen & could be more intuitive or change in design to void scrolling by finger on a thin scroll bar to the edge of the touch screen. Did I mention the price ? Very affordable for the quality & flavors I had, 14.99$ the pork pad thai. The Fauburg atmosphere is not the nicest, not their fault.

This is a hidden gem with an underground feel to it. Authentic food with reasonable prices. The chicken pad Thai with udon noodles & egg is absolutely amazing.
