Yes Mama Kitchen

We were excited to try the hot plate and it did not disappoint. However, I think more bread should’ve been provided because we finished the bread way before finishing the other items on the plate. We also got vermicelli and a noodle soup dish. The vermicelli was good - decent portions, tasty. The noodle soup was a bit lacking. The noodles needed to be cooked a bit longer. The toppings were scarce, definitely could’ve used more meat. The broth was nice and simple, but I think an added touch would’ve been offering some spices or sauce if one desired a more flavourful taste. One con is that it took quite a bit of time to bring out the food and we were the only patrons there… imagine if it was actually busy. It’s also on the pricier side compared to other Vietnamese restaurants. But I like the fact that they offer dishes that you can’t find elsewhere and it definitely does have a home cooked meal vibe to it. All in all, an enjoyable meal.

The beef pho was delicious, especially with the huge beef rib! I really enjoyed the broken rice with the Vietnamese quiche and fried egg! They have a whole vegan menu too which is a nice option 😋 Nice to have another Asian option on Merivale

Pho was excellent. Beef rib was fall-off-the-bone delicious. Pork chop and quiche on the rice plate were a bit dry. Friendly and attentive service. Excited to try other items on the menu.

One of the best places I’ve been to!!! We keep going back every week just because of how good the food and service are!! Our waiter Mahmoud is absolutely the best and he made the biggest different in our experience!! The food all comes out hot and well put together the hot plate is my personal favourite for breakfast!! Otherwise I love their fried egg noodles!!! The atmosphere and the inside decor is also beautiful and this is a truly hidden gem!!

New Vietnamese restaurant serving traditional dishes with a few not served anywhere else. Dishes have a home-made taste to it - as implied in the name. The fresh baked bread had a great texture and the main dishes were savoury. Recommend anyone that wants to try some new and traditional flavours.
