Cơm tấm sườn bì chả
Quyen B.

Loved all the dishes here. Very flavorful. Highly recommend the Chicken and rice and the ribs and rice. Ribs come with bì and the best chả trứng (egg loaf) in town!! Good chả trứng is hard to find, most are dry and not flavorful. Order ahead recommended!

Pork belly vermicelli
Briana N.

I feel like I've been eating so good recently and just giving out 5 stars left and right, but Mam Mam deserves it! In the springdale general buildings, Mam Mam is located in a cute and convenient little food hall, with lots of tables for working and eating. We got the pork belly vermicelli, and that first bite of pork belly really got me good. It's so meaty and has such a good chew to it, not too greasy, and I love the fried breading on the outside, for a slight crunch. The noodles were bouncy, the sauce was delicious. And the pickled veggies and cucumbers were perfect for off setting all the meat. Would definitely go back to try some of the other menu options!

Ba's Egg Roll, Pork Belly Vermicelli, and Fish Sauce Caramel Wings
Angelica L.

Rating: 4.4/5 [take out] We placed an online order for a late lunch on a Thursday, and it was ready within 25 minutes. They're located inside Wingman Kitchen, which doesn't have a staffed front counter. However, you can see directly into the kitchen, and when we arrived, someone noticed us and came out to hand us our order. Fish Sauce Caramel Wings ($12 | GF): These were chicken wings and drumsticks coated in a fish sauce caramel, topped with chopped herbs, pickled chilies, and fried garlic. The pieces were large and packed with umami. The flavors were good, but the fish sauce left a slightly fishy aftertaste that I didn't enjoy. A few of the drumsticks were red near the bone, and when we brought it to their attention, they refunded us. Ba's Egg Roll ($5 | GF): A large, gluten-free pork egg roll served over a bed of lettuce and herbs with a side of fish sauce. It was flavorful, crispy, and satisfying. The wrapper had a unique texture--slightly chewy and a bit sticky on the teeth--but not a big issue. Pork Belly Vermicelli ($14 | GF): Vermicelli noodles topped with fried pork belly, mixed herbs, ginger scallion oil, crushed peanuts, and served with a side of nuoc mam cham. The pork belly was quite fatty, thinly sliced, and had a nice crispy edge. Unfortunately, it lacked the bold flavor I was expecting and reminded me a bit of boiled pork like bossam. Overall, the dish didn't stand out, and I'd probably skip it next time.

The portion sizes of the food here are insanely large relative to the price that you pay! With one appetizer and one entree, you could probably have enough for two different meals. It's built inside this larger complex, so you have the choice between taking it to go or eating it there in the shared space between several restaurants in the building. MUST GET: the fish sauce chicken wings. The meat is juicy inside but the skin is perfectly THICK and crispy on the outside. The sauce is the perfect hints of sweet and funk and they give you some fat full wings and drumsticks. None of the skimpy tiny chicken wings here. Shared between two people, this itself could be a lunch. This was my favorite thing on the menu. The poached chicken over chicken oil rice is delightful. The sauce is sweet and spicy to dip the chicken in. No bones in this chicken, for those who are used to that in chicken over Hainanese rice.

Mam Mam blew me away! The roti canai was a one-bite wonder--flaky roti, rich curry, and tangy pickles combined for an explosion of flavor. The chicken and rice? Pure fatty, flavorful bliss. I can't wait to come back to this pop-up and taste more!

Pork Belly Vermicelli (split)
Fellman B.

On Saturday, a friend and I did a workout at Central Athlete. We were super hungry afterwards and searched the restaurants in the complex. Man Mam looked the most promising, as we both love Asian food. We ordered the Pork Belly Vermicelli from the counter and decided to split it. The dish contains fried pork belly (it was so deans crunchy), Vermicelli rice noodles, mixed herbs, pickled vegetables, and fried shallots. Topped with fish sauce dressing and crushed peanuts, this dish is a winner! They brought the dish within five minutes, allowing us to assuage our hunger quickly. There are plenty of places to sit and eat near the restaurant in the food court. The whole ambiance is pleasant for casual dining.

Huge and hearty wings

Mam Mam's is such a happy, healthy marriage of southeast Asian flavors. I love the citrusy undertones of the both the papaya and the steak salads, as well as the Tom Yum pasta. These creations are not to be confused with your sad little side salads--they are substantial, meal-like dishes that are packed with robust flavors. I got to try their food in Mansfield, where the birthday girls' parents had the connections to get Mam Mam catered, but I'm not sure if catering is a normal thing they offer, especially this far north of ATX. Every dish was outstanding. I took gallon-bags of food from the party, and I'm so excited to eat it all again tomorrow!

The service at this ghost kitchen was amazing. The employee brought us food directly to our table even though we were supposed to go get it when the buzzer went off. My friend and I got the Larb Heb and the Texas kaya toast. The larb heb was interesting - it was weirdly spicy and very vinegary. I was not super impressive but the mushrooms were a good texture. The texas kaya toast was delicious!!! It was crispy and fresh. The bread was soft in the middle like milk bread. The pandan dip was so flavorful and delicious as well!

Hot yai fried chicken
Eina D.

Tucked away in the back corner of Springdale General, Mam Mam's is serving up hearty Southeast Asian dishes. The hot yai fried chicken hit the spot! It was a generous portion of chicken quarters with chicken fat rice. It came with 2 sauces: a cilantro mint that had a nice kick and a more classic sweet chili vinegar. The gaeng neur roti was also a hit. The beef cheek was tender and the curry was so rich and full of flavor. The portions were generous as well, as it included both roti and rice. The roti by itself was delicious; buttery, flaky goodness. Well worth the visit!

Mam mam is a new spot in Austin for Southeast Asian cuisine, operating out of Wingman Kitchens at Springdale general. Chefs present traditional home-cooked dishes with a modern flair- some of which you truly won't find anywhere else in Austin. We were so excited, we ordered the whole menu! Some favorites: bone-in fried chicken with incredibly crispy well-seasoned skin, chicken & rice which paired well with a tasty ginger lime fish sauce, papaya salad with sesame crackers (could not even tell this was vegan ! ). - hat yai fried chx 15 - chicken & rice 15 - papaya salad (vegan) 12 - gaeng neur roti 17 - larb hed 15 - fish sauce caramel wings 11 for 6 Mam mam is located towards the back of the building of Springdale general, on the way to the restrooms. You may also preorder when they are open. 1023 Springdale Rd, Bldg 1, Austin, TX 78721 (located at Wingman Kitchens)

Fried chicken
Tina D.

It's located inside the same complex as Medici coffee and near the barbershop. The food menu is small, but the food is delicious! I got the fried chicken and the meat inside was juicy while the skin was crispy and so flavorful. My friends got the chicken and rice (very soft and healthy) and the pork belly vermicelli too. The portion is really good for the price! They only open on the weekend at this location so make sure to check their schedule

Chicken and rice
Chelsea L.

Sooo delicious! Found this Thai/SE Asian place inside Springdale General. Their portions are filling, pricing is reasonable, and most importantly, the food is delcious! Give it a try! We got chicken and rice and gaeng neur roti, which comes with curry. I want to try the Kaya Texas Toast next time! I have had Kaya toast in Singapore before and that was delicious so I'm excited.

Hat yai fried chicken, ribs, and chicken & rice
Sabrina B.

This is the best spot to replace my beloved chicken rice joe that left Austin about two years ago or so. Easy to grab, well priced, quick, and delicious food. This place is SO good, it's almost criminal. The chef/owner is apparently Vietnamese but learned from a Thai chef before starting Mam Mam. My partner and I are Vietnamese and Thai respectively, and we were both super happy with what we got. I can't say enough good things about this little restaurant tucked in the back. I tried a bit of everything we ordered, but our order consisted of Hat Yai Fried Chicken, Chicken & Rice, and the Pork Ribs for the mains. We also added Kaya Toast that came with a pandan dip and a canned Yeo's chrysanthemum tea (of course, those are just canned drinks but I always enjoy both the chrysanthemum tea and the white gourd drink). The favorites were definitely the hat yai fried chicken with its sweet chili vinegar sauce and cilantro mint sauce, but the pork ribs were a very close second. Both were generous with the protein. The chicken and rice was good and great for a lighter meal than the others, plus the ginger lime fish sauce was great. I ended up using all the sauces and alternated to give myself the full experience of their options, and WOW was it amazing! I didn't end up trying the toast until I got home and heated the toast up for 15 seconds in the microwave, but it unfortunately was gone in about 10 seconds due to how good it was dipped in the pandan sauce. This is a MUST get, even if you aren't currently hungry for dessert. In addition, the service was great. The man up front was informative and sweet. I will 100% be back... probably every month if not every week!

Leading up to it we were pretty excited since we've seen a lot of online buzz about the place Man...we were super disappointed. I immediately knew we made the wrong choice when I ordered a "Banana Old Fashioned" and the only thing "banana" about it was a tiny banana chip that got tossed in a normal old fashioned (no joke, see pics) The prices on each of the items are also way too high for what it is. And the amount of food they give you is like ordering a side dish. You could get better bang for your buck at a food truck, and I'd argue that you can probably get better tasting food at a food truck too It's not even about the amount of food. If the quality was good, the price can be justified, but just because a waiter tells you how to dip your food in the sauces that it comes in, doesn't make it "fancy" You can tell this place loves their fish sauce, cause that's the only flavor you're going to get here Dessert was an absolute joke. Two scoops of blue bell ice cream with fruity pebbles sprinkled on top. Something that also bothered me at the end is that they pass on the credit card fees (3%) onto the customer. It'll say on the receipt. Even fast food restaurants don't do this. Waiters were very nice. Vibes were okay except for the "Valentine's Day" paper menu having a lot of food smeared on from previous diners. It was just another classic "let's charge NYC prices in Austin" type restaurant.

I would say the portion sizes are in the small side but for everything we ordered between the two of us, we did end up being full enough, not belly hurting. Every bite is well balanced with yummy flavors and textures. Leanne was our server and she was awesome. I love when servers describe the dish and recommend how to get the best bite. Can't wait to come back!

It piqued my attention enough that I decided to come by several hours later to get my dinner there. Bit of a unique setup as it's literally just a desk at the front with a menu you can order off. You put your order in on Square and wait. And then someone comes to bring your food out all nicely wrapped up! This is probably because the person who would take your order is actually also making the food in the bank/ Ordered the Beef Rendang, since I wanted to try something that was uniquely Malaysian. The beef was very tender and paired well with the sauce. It also had an unexpected spicy kick to it, but it wasn't overwhelming.

There's a separate register toward the front of the store for you to place your order. However, there's a very good chance the proprietor will be in the back making food, so it's really a spot for you to browse the menu and order online. Once you get past the set-up, however, Wee's is very, very good. The menu offers Malaysian curries, noodles, satays, snacks, and drinks. I opted for a beef rendang and a Thai green tea. After about 15-20 minutes, Wee emerged to hand me my order. She gave me a warm greeting and seemed invested in me enjoying my meal. And enjoy it I did! The meat was tender, the sauce rich and creamy, and the coconut flavors paired well with the pickled vegetables. There was also a lot of it: for $18, I felt like I got my money's worth. Wee's Cozy Kitchen is easy to miss unless you're looking for it, but if you stop by, you're in for a treat.

There's a lot of food trucks in Austin. There are a few that I consider above the rest and Spicy…read moreBoys is one of those joints. Spicy Boys has four locations in the Austin area, with probably their most popular at Zilker Brewing. They are a spicy chicken establishment and their spicy chicken comes in different shapes and sizes from bone-in fried chicken, chicken sandwiches, and nuggets. I have only ever ordered their fried chicken sandwich and every time, I have been a fan. I always get their middle option in heat, the Hot Gai, which is sandwiched between the OG and the Tingly Gai. It hits every time. The mayonnaise, the pickles, the perfectly crisp chicken: you can't miss it. As a side, I ALWAYS without fail get their Tater Tots. They are consistently crispy while remaining soft on the inside. Sometimes I will get it seasoned with their Tingly Sichuan, but the heat is sometimes too much. I cannot recommend the tots enough. Spicy Boys is one of those places that is always there for you. They are consistently open and the people making the orders are putting a ton of dedication into making them smack every time. The sandwich alone comes at $9.50 with the tots at $3.50, which seems on par or slightly lower than a typical food truck if my memory serves me right. I recommend giving them a shot whether you are at Spokesman in Pflugerville, St. Elmo Brewing, or Zilker off 6th Street. It's in the upper echelon of food trucks. RIYL: peak chicken sammys
