A menu from the street

We were inspired by authentic street vendors from Thailand and Vietnam - this is food that is prepared fast and fresh, designed to satisfy immediately with the unmistakeable flavour mix of hot, sour, sweet and salty. Our Street Vendor menu offers so many dishes at great prices it can be hard to stop. Chaing Mai Pork Belly, Shanghai Dumpling With Panang Curry Sauce, Mongolian Fish Roti…the list goes on. For more substantial plates our Glamorous range includes Vietnamese Pancake Banh Xeo, Kungpao Chicken, Cambodian Peppercorn Prawns (prawns, lemongrass, fresh basil, garlic, green pepper, baby corn and bamboo shoots) along with classics like Nasi Goreng and our perennial favourite- the Indonesian Beef Rendang.

The Casual, Stylish Ambience

Mama San has been designed with contemporary comfort in mind - plenty of room for dining, with tons of colour and textures from the East.

A Great Spot for Groups

Mama San welcomes groups. Our menu is designed to satisfy even the most demanding palates (kids and adults alike). We do recommend booking online at least a day before - our restaurant is very popular with locals and visitors.
