    4 Pad Thai Dumplings
    Nehal A.

    Ordered take out lunch via the Clover app. The order was ready upon arrival. The grilled chicken sandwich was super good, delicious chicken with veggies and sauce. The pad thai was also amazing. It has little bit of sweet taste to it.

    Tofu and veggie pho

    Casual Vietnamese food made with love This is a small, no frills place with a selection of Vietnamese fare like pho, noodles, rice, buns, salads and appetizers. I enjoyed the tofu and veggie pho ($14) and the original banhmi ($11) got high reviews too, for good texture bread and juicieness. Everything comes in takeout containers even when you dine in, which I didn't love especially for something one pho. You order at the counter and sit at a table. There seemed to be a good flow of people ordering takeout so that's probably a good sign! There are so many options for dining and bakeries in this area.

    This place might not look like it but it has some of the best Vietnamese food in the area. A small little takeout place with a very interesting menu. We tried the duck buns,chicken fried rice,spicy chicken banh mi and vietnamese coffee. Everything tasted amazing.Loved the banh mi. The portions are huge,especially the banh mi and fried rice.The prices are very reasonable especially after everyone increased the prices for inflation. The lady at the counter is very attentive and courteous. Definitely check this place in closter.

    My husband and I order from here often. Our usual is the Chicken Pad Thai, which is super tasty with some spice to it and the Pork Fried Rice, extra spicy. The rice is my absolute favorite--garlickly, spicy and the pork bits are so tender and tasty. The portion sizes are on the bigger side, which is appreciated. We have never been to the physical restaurant, but delivery has always been good!

    Dined for the first time with my daughter. First off, the menu prices on their website are lower than in the restaurant. Time for an update! My daughter ordered an original mommy, and I selected a spicy mommy. Both sandwiches were decent size on very tasty bread. Unfortunately, the Original Ma Mi includes some very tasty, but very fatty pork. The portion of pork was also not generous, and once you remove the fat there's not all that much left. As for my Spicy Ma Mi, it included a healthy amount of chicken and was quite tasty. Two high school girls behind the counter, one with an infectious smile, the other looking like she partied hard the night before! Pho being enjoyed by other diners looked good! Will go back, but likely stay away from the Original Ma Mi.

    Ordered the grilled chicken bahn mi and a Thai iced tea. Service was quick and friendly. Unfortunately I think you can't eat inside... but the food is really good. Will come back again

    NJ doesn't have as many Vietnamese cuisine compared to Brooklyn/NYC so I'm used to a different flavor. I can see how this place attracts other people in different aspects-- service is great, neighborhood is nice and quiet, and the interior is inviting and comfortable. The menu is simple and easy to read. However, this spot serves mediocre Vietnamese cuisine relative to my experience with eating it in other ethnic neighborhoods & in Vietnam. I tried the Chicken pho - it was decent but definitely over seasoned with sugar & salt(idk how that's possible). The chicken was dry ... but it covered with soup so I'm not sure how they did that.

    Some of the best to-go food in the area. Amazing pad Thai and fried rice. Large portions and never disappoints. Also check out the spicy ma mi sandwich, delicious with a refreshing taste with all the fresh herbs and vegetables.

    Ordered the shrimp summer roll and the spicy chicken bahn mi. Have not been here in a while and the quality and preparation are all still there! The sandwhich was seasoned perfectly and had a good amount of veggies and the spicy mayo perfectly compliments the sandwhich. The summer rolls were fresh, soft, and tasted great! I asked for a side of spicy mayo bc i love it. Usually comes with a peanut sauce. Cheers!

    Named Best of Bergen Finalist for 2022 and 2023, this establishment opened 7 years ago as a fast-casual Vietnamese restaurant located in Closter, where I came as a first-timer for lunch today. Upon entering, it was very simple, cozy, yet clean, with a couple of little tables, and I was fortunate to meet up with the husband-and-wife team. They also own a sister restaurant, "Simply Vietnamese," in Tenafly. The owner, Joe, has informed me that the eatery is named "Ma Mì," which is derived from "Ma," paying tribute to his mother and grandmother, while "mì" means bread or noodle in Vietnamese. The menu is relatively simple, not overly complex, consisting of banh mi sandwiches, pho soup, bao buns, and salads. For starters, I decided on the summer roll with chicken and avocado. As the main meal, I opted for the seafood pho consisting of shrimp and basa (fish). To wash these down, I ordered the Thai iced tea. Since all orders, including dine-in, are packed to go, the food was packaged very well. They included siracha and hoisen sauce without asking for the pho. The soup was bursting with flavors of anise and other spices--perfectly warm and comforting. The broth was generous in size, and the noodles were fresh. The rolls were okay, but not wrapped tightly. The friendly staff makes you feel like family, and the price is reasonable, so I can recommend this place.

    a fantastic, affordable, and quick spot to stop by for lunch or dinner if you're ever in or driving by closter. i ordered a banh mi and 2 appetizers: - tofu banh mi: this is seriously one of the best banh mis i've had in the northeast region-- perfect amount of mayo and sauces, the tofu was teeming with flavor, and the bread was so soft and fresh. i dont even know how to describe it but the whole experience of consuming this banh mi was just SO pleasant-- since having it, I've been periodically craving it and can't wait to go back when I'm back in the area. - duck baos: i highly recommend this starter; it was INCREDIBLE!! the baos were so so soft and fluffy and the duck was so well cooked and flavored - veggie summer rolls: this was just okay, not the highlight by any means and definitely overshadowed by the other amazing items. still a solid summer roll though-- you can rarely go wrong with these.

    Totally recommend! I've been here a few times. The Thai iced tea with coconut milk is delicious! I'm lactose intolerant and it's great that they can whip this up non-dairy. My daughter is addicted to their crispy tofu bao buns. The grilled chicken Ma mí sandwich is really yummy - flavorful. The banh mi fries are a must try. Keep in mind that they have wet topping so if you take them to go, eat them fast otherwise it's all soggy. They're flavorful and filling.

    Today I was craving a broth or noodle dish. I've been searching through various Japanese, Korean,…read moreand Chinese spots, and honestly, there were only two places where I actually liked this kind of stew. However, this restaurant ( MIGAM) completely exceeded my expectations! Everything is made with high-quality ingredients, and they prepared my takeout order exactly as I requested. SPICY BRISKET JJAMPPONG It's a spicy dish, but since spice levels vary from place to place--and being Mexican, I'm used to spicy food--I didn't want to take any chances, so I ordered it medium spicy. They hit the nail on the head! It was absolute perfection. The broth was rich, thick, and packed with flavor--delightful in every single way. The portion size is so generous that it will easily cover two meals, and I'm sharing some with my husband. It came with four sides (banchan), including kimchi, and I can honestly say it's the best kimchi I've ever had in my life--and I've tried Korean food both in Mexico and here in the U.S. I first visited this restaurant in Tenafly over a year ago when I believe they were just starting out. Back then, I met a woman who I believe is the owner. I am so glad to see they still maintain that same phenomenal quality! They cook with such attention to detail that I no longer have to worry about looking for another place to get this kind of food. Thank you so much, blessings, and congratulations on the wonderful work and dedication you put into preparing the most delicious Korean dishes I've ever tasted. See you very soon!

It seems like they only really have two people on staff, so be patient! The staff is very nice and try their best. But especially if three or more tables are filled - food will take awhile to arrive. The menu has a lot of standard Korean fare - Korean pancakes, bibimbops, noodle soups (black bean noodles, jjampong, kalguksu) and stews (galbi tang, bulgogi stew). The seafood pancake has more veggies and seafood than pancake. I've had the galbi tang twice, which is also hearty and packed with a lot of goodies. Worth a trip if you happen to be wandering around the Tenafly area. We will likely be back.

Once your order is ready your number is called and you pick up your tray of food. There is signage in the restaurant indicating that they are self-serve and that you shouldn't tip. My girlfriend and I ordered beef soup and a seafood pancake. The food was prepared fairly quickly and they called our number to pick up the food from the counter. The seafood pancake was pretty good. Very flavorful but I felt like it was thicker and more doughy than I prefer. I would probably skip this for the next visit. The beef soup was delicious as well. It was just the right temperature and it was salty and savory enough without being overwhelming. We went on a particularly cold day so the hot soup really hit the spot. The pieces of beef in the soup were super tender too. Continuing the self-service theme there was a water dispenser and there was even a dispenser of broth at the pick up counter. I liked that broth even more than the broth in the beef soup. I slurped up several cups of it. I'd certainly come back.

I went with the winter melon soup and as I was checking out, I made an impulse kimchi buy. I mean, you can't really go wrong with that superfood. The owner added in a selection of appetizers for me to try. Before leaving, I took stock of all the possibilities on future visits. Banchan galore, rice bowls, crispy tofu, store made vinegar, I could go on. None of that would mean anything if the food wasn't delicious. Good thing it's absolutely fantastic! The winter melon soup is a revelation, straightforward excellent broth, filled with tasty winter melon and tender beef. I could have gotten two portions out of it. I didn't. Ate it all up, perfect on a cold night. The appetizer selection featured seafood pancakes that I absolutely loved. The three other items were equally good. Took a quick taste of her cut kimchi, absolutely divine! Hit of spice, great texture, and exuding health! Can't wait to head back!

Today, that changed as we ordered the Apple Cranberry Crisp à la mode along with her Chicken Salad sandwich and that dessert was delicious!

So the ambiance was very friendly as while it appeared like they were regulars, they were not because they've never seen the Apple Cranberry Crisp in person. We took our four month old infant and the place was accommodating to that as well. The decor was very traditional but very clean, like you were in the dining room of the golden age of your grandma's house (I hope that makes sense like it does for me).
