This is my second time eating here and I just want to share the love! Plenty of space for a party of 4. Super friendly service, and fantastic food! One of the best Thai restaurants in the city. Serving flavorful and and rich yellow curries. Medium spice gives you a warm reminder of what you're enjoying. The jasmine rice has such a nutty aroma that I just couldn't stop eating. Servings were generous and I had enough leftovers for lunch the next day. They do have a lunch special, and if you're in the area I would highly encourage you stop in an give it a try. read more

I stopped by with a friend for dinner. We love Thai food and haven't been here so we decided to give it a try. We got seated pretty quickly. We came around 6 for dinner and the space inside is pretty neat. I liked the decorations, it was so colorful and bright. It's pretty in there. I ordered the Pad Thai with Chicken at medium heat, and my friend ordered a tofu curry. Honestly, I felt like the medium heat was a bit mild for me. I think I could've ordered hot and it would've been fine. The noodles were good, sauce was nice and the veggies tasted fresh. Wait time for food wasn't long at all. My Pad Thai was good, but for me I wish the sauce was a little bit more savory. Don't get me wrong, I love the classic sweet and savory sauce but this dish ended up leaning more sweet rather than having that balance. So if you prefer a slightly sweeter Pad Thai, then this would be the place for you. We also had these rice crackers with a very thick sauce that was slightly sweet that was so tasty. The crackers were very crunchy and had a nice crisp. It paired so well with the sauce on the side, it was nice. Service was excellent. It helped that it wasn't super busy when we arrived. I wanted to order a boba to-go, but I genuinely didn't have anymore room haha. I was so full. I don't think I would order a Pad Thai for me, but I'd come back to try their other noodle dishes and definitely a boba and dessert. read more

Nice little Thai spot on Brainerd Rd. It was very clean inside, and the staff was really nice. Loved the Panang curry and the drunken noodles. My daughter also enjoyed the boba. read more

Hot food, quick service, our waitress was incredibly kind and shared in with us specifics of the menu, pointing out traditional thai meals and her favorites. My panang curry was very flavorful but the veggies mixed in were pretty bland. My cousin got the chicken pad thai which was great! Would like to try something else on the menu. read more

Mah Kin - Panang curry, steamed rice, rice cracker appetizer - Thai Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

Hungry, but not so desperate as to settle for anything--certainly you know what that feels like. My wife and I really needed a nourishing hot meal and one spot came to mind in a section of Chattanooga that I wasn't close to at the time. It meant a little extra drive when traffic might be an issue. We went anyway. We had to. We really needed a good meal. We were welcomed warmly when we arrived. We settled in to a lightly decorated, but colorful space. The meals arrived fairly soon after our order was placed. It was accurate with our particular dietary needs fully addressed. The best part was when the co-owner kept checking in with us for follow-up. She was wonderful to chat with and learn more about. We look forward to our next visit! read more

Food was great and service too. I had basil stir fry chicken and my husband had the yellow curry. Heads up, the curries are intended for two people ($20). We didn't realize that and ended up with a ton of food. I ordered a coconut bubble tea which they didn't have on the menu, but she made one up and it was great. We came in for a late lunch on Monday so we got to chat with our waitress quite a bit. She's from northeast Thailand and very friendly. The place was very clean despite being a hole in the wall in a neighborhood I wasn't sure about (someone stuck their gum to our rental car while we were eating). read more

Traveling to Chattanooga, I stopped in to Mah Kin on my first night. The decor was super fun and I thought the staff was especially welcoming. I ordered the M2 Pad Khing with beef. The vegetables seemed super fresh and still had some crunch to them. The brown sauce was delicate, and the beef tender. The jasmine rice was aromatic and flavorful. I left feeling very happy! read more

Stop what you're doing and head to Mah Kin! My husband and I thought we'd try this for a lunch date and we are so glad we did. The restaurant truly embraces the kindness and friendliness of Thailand, so welcoming. Our server made a recommendation for the handmade dumplings and my husband joked that it could've been his whole meal (he LOVED them). We also got the basil rolls and the peanut sauce rivals Thai Esan's (previously our favorite Thai restaurant in Chattanooga). My husband got the Pad Thai and I had the Drunken Noodles both at medium and we were very happy with the spice levels. I had a nice little nose sweat going on (like I like) and my husband said his was a pleasant balance. The owner came to check in on us and she was delightful--she has a lot to be proud of with this restaurant. Thank you for becoming our new favorite Thai place in the area! We will definitely be back. Also, for those of you who are vegan, they do offer vegan options! read more

Delicious food and the staff is so kind and helpful! Authentic dishes on the menu from various parts of Thailand, and some of the best Thai food I've had in Chattanooga. The chef heard I was congested and she recommended a spicy soup, thatni had while waiting on my to-go order...it was spicy, delicious, and just what I needed for my throat and congestion. Very cute and clean inside as well! Thank you read more

Stopped in with my husband while we're in town for a convention, and I'm so glad we did! Our lovely server told us that everything is made in house--I hope this family business does well, you can tell that they are very glad to be there and eager to take care of customers. Our appetizer came out about five minutes after we ordered, and our entrees were maybe five minutes after that. We got the steamed Thai dumplings, pad see ew with beef, and chicken curry noodle soup. It was a great meal with complex flavors and just enough kick--I was especially happy with the tender chicken in the soup, it can be tricky to keep chicken from getting tough by the time it makes it to the table. The space was comfortable, and we arrived just at the right time; it seemed like business was picking up by the time we left around 6:30. We will definitely be back at our next visit to town! read more

The service was good. We were greeted upon entering the front door. GOD AWFUL food!!!! Sorry but this was the worst Thai I've ever had.... I should have known to turn around after seeing no customers in the restaurant! we sat at a table and within a few minutes I saw 4 small red ants on our table. we ordered 2 chicken pad thai. 1 mild and 1 Thai hot For me. I like heat!! My dish lacked flavor, taste, was extremely bland not spicy whatsoever! It was very thick, like paste!! If you think this is good Thai then you've never had good Thai!!!! I will not recommend this place!!! read more

Mah Kin - Lacking flavor, taste, extremely bland w zero heat despite asking for Thai hot ! worst Thai I've ever had... - Thai Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

Visited Mah Kin today for the 1st time. Immediately greeted with a smile by both ladies. We ordered the Chor Thong (Thai dumplings), Drunken Noodles, and Pad Thai. My wife got the noodles mild, they had just a touch of heat. I got the Pad Thai hot and it was just enough to give me that perspiration below my eyes just like I like. All three dishes were exceptional. The dumplings were the star for sure. Our server was very attentive and made sure all of our questions were answered. We will definitely be returning soon. read more

Excellent new Thai restaurant. Only a couple of employees. Fresh, made to order food with top quality ingredients. Service can be a little slow, but worth th wait. I had the masamam curry chicken and a papaya salad. Both were exceptional. They have a quote on the wall about being invited into a Thai home and it lives up to that promise. read more

That was the driest, worst tasting thai food I've ever had. Maybe they are having an off day but some the noodles were still clumped together. There was barely any sauce and the meat was so dry and hard to eat. Ughhh. Never again. So not worth the money. Order: pad thai beef and pad kee mow chicken read more

The food is so good. It's a small place with a nice atmosphere, there was only one employee on the floor so I had to be patient but honestly I was just happy they were busy at 3pm on a Monday! I would like to suggest that you have ALL orders taken at the register and give the customer a # to take when they sit down at a table. It was a bit frustrating to wait in line to order at the counter to then by told to sit at a table for dine-in and other people behind me get their to-go orders in. You should just have everyone order at the counter, this is a very common process for a small restaurant. read more

The Drunken noodles are yummy! Their spicy levels are accurate, unlike other Thai places here in Chatt.

Delicious food. Great service. Spotlessly clean. We started with tom yum soup- perfectly seasoned and promptly served. My husband ordered drunken noodle w pork and I got pad thai chicken. Both were good but I much preferred the drunken noodle. I've ordered pork in Thai food other places that was quite tough but this was tender and savory. We will definitely return- hopefully soon. read more

We ordered the "D3 Kanom Pung Ping," meant to have toasted bread with sweet Thai tea, but the bread was frozen in the middle, and we got mango jam instead of the tea. When I asked about it, the staff said they'd do better next time, but I felt they should have informed me about the missing tea when taking the order. read more

Amazing Thai food! Extremely sweet people working there and service was quick. The drunken noodles especially were great.

I love this place. I am diabetic and the owner came out personally and made suggestions I ordered Chicken Larb. Oh it was so good... the pad see ew. Was very tasty as well. They have really brightened the restaurant up. From the last place that was there. I feel very welcome from staff. They went out of their way way. read more

My family and I dined there this evening for the first time and are excited to have such a great little restaurant nearby. The kang hung lay (kaeng hang le) was phenomenal. One of the best dishes I've had in a while. I wish it were a little cheaper, but the pricing makes sense given the amount of pork belly mixed in with the other pork cuts. The nam tok (Y 2) and chicken larb (Y 3) were excellent and served in generous portions. We really loved the extra large pieces of green onion you don't get in most larbs around here. It was also super nice to see it served with steamed sticky rice, another rarity in other Thai restaurants around here, whicb The pad see ew (N 3) had a perfectly balanced flavor and was well portioned. Nothing to write home about, yet no faults. Also overshadowed by how good the kang hung lay was. read more

Good food, clean establishment and very friendly, personable people. What more could you ask for. GO!

The food was incredible we ate several different dishes and all were amazing! My favorite would have to be the pineapple fried rice the spices in this dish were unreal! The crispy spring rolls were also amazing. I will absolutely be returning. read more
