    Fried rice
    Sidney P.

    This is always a 5 star experience for us. Friendly service and food is fantastic. Much better than Dough Zone, which had become too corporate. Handmade noodles are delicious here. Highly recommend!!

    Xiao long bao
    Jessilyn C.

    I don't like comparing restaurants with other restaurants so I'll stick to talking about the food. I had food delivered so I can't go about the service or ambiance of place. But according to deliverer he waited a while for the food. The pork xiao long bao was dry, hardly any soup. It was more affordable than other places, but not quite as good. So probably not going back. The beef soup with bok choy and handmade noodles arrived hot. Were ok, but the broth was a bit salty, and off pudding in taste. My daughter felt the same about it. The braised beef pancake rolls were good, but a bit soggy. And the deep fried buns were so dry I could barely chew it.

    Green Onion Pancakes and Sweet and Sour Cucumber Saladsweet
    Wendy K.

    Visited for lunch this afternoon with friends was nice to come with more people and try more items. We ordered the Green onion pancake, salt and pepper shrimp, chicken chowmein and spicy eggplant. My friend said the spicy eggplant is her new favorite eggplant dish. I really enjoyed their version of salt and pepper shrimp. Full shell head on so delicious. Lots of garlic. Clean and bright space. Service is always friendly and quick we arrived about 11am and were seated immediately and given hot tea as soon as we sat down. Definitely will be back

    It was stale thick fried batter in super sugary sauce-it's lacking flavor

    The fried spicy eggplants looks so good but oh man it was not good! This is based on my order itself today because usually this place is really good Today my rating is 1/5 (hence I rated it 3 stars just because it can be a hit or miss) Spicy fried eggplants: Spice level 0/5 (I'm so confused, there is no spice at all) Taste: 0/5 it tasted like pure candied sugar, not savory no salt Batter: it was like thick fried chicken batter but it was so stale from all the sauce 0/5 Price: $15 for half container portion Overall I would not get this dish again

    Pork XLB
    Helene L.

    5 stars- I love the fact this place is super casual with home made quality XLB and Tawainese food. Food- 4 stars- homey, yummy! * loved the pig ear salad- flavorful. Not spicy, loved how thinly sliced it was. * Braised beef in onion pancake roll- beef was super tender, flavorful, cut into chunks, cold. The pancake was too oily for me, and hot! Overall enjoyed. * spicy wontons- was fine. Nothing exciting. * sautéed string beans were good- little oily and salty. Flavor was good * braised beef noodle soup had a lot of depth. Beef tender. Hand made noodles were the best! * pork XLB- good flavor, not as much soup, but still good. *golden fried buns- drizzled with condensed milk. Simple, hot and yummy! Ambiance- 3 stars. Service- 4 stars. Server was nice and kids loved all the kid friendly design bowls, utensil and cups. Food came out super fast. Location- Great Wall shopping center where 99Ranch is located. Plenty of parking. On the right side/arm of the mall. Value- very good. Recommend- YES!

    Stopped by here after a long day of shopping and couldn't have been more satisfied! We were greeted with smiles and seated right away. The overall vibe was very clean and Asian lol. We ordered the xiaolongbao and some type of noodle soup that I forgot lol. They were both very delicious. And they came out quickly. Service was definitely top notch. We were checked up on regularly and the staff there were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely come back again.

    Pan fried dumplings
    Lucy C.

    Crispy and very delicious. I also recommended this dish to a family member and he went to try the same thing on his way to pick up someone from the airport. It's about a 13 minute drive to SeaTac from Mama Dough's so if you need a place to eat on the way to the airport I highly recommend mama dough! Get the crispy pan fried dumplings! Just look at how good that looks

    Sauteed String Beans with Garlic
    Tatiana W.

    Great dumplings and selection of bigger plates. The service was so fast, and we got to see the staff make dim sum behind the counter. Service was fast and it was clean and bright inside. I loved the garlic string beans!

    Spicy Braised Beef Noodle Soup
    Kana S.

    We ordered braised beef pancake roll, braised beef spicy oil noodles, and pork Xiao Long Bao. They were all great and enough for 2 people. My favorite was braised beef pancake rolls. The tangy sauce complemented the rolls very well.

    Frozen pork wonton
    Esther F.

    Food: 3/5 - Got 2 pork wonton noodle soup bowls - Good noodles and chicken broth - Very small wontons with maybe 1/2 teaspoon of meat filling. - Got 1 order pork wontons in spicy Sichuan sauce. Very tasty, but again, very small wontons. - Got a $20 bag of 50 frozen wontons just for convenience to make at home. With such small wontons, you only get 1/2 a freezer gallon bag full. Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 3/5 - Modernized, but basic and serviceable

    B1. Pork Wonton in Spicy Sichuan Sauce and C8. Beef Pancake
    Han H.

    Super friendly staff, immediately greets you as you come in the door. Attentive too! The space is small but wasn't too crowded on a Saturday at 1pm. Food was good, comparable to Din Tai Fung (and better than Dough Zone imo). My mom didn't like the taste of the meat though. Really like the texture of their eggplant and beef pancake roll.

    Pork Dumplings
    Wennie H.

    Maybe I needed to take a break from this place to really appreciate it thoroughly? Either way I'm so glad I made the decision to come here for a late lunch. Ordered the potato salad, beef pancake roll, chicken pancake roll and red spilled oil noodles. Potato salad had great crunchy texture and the perfect punch of vinegar. Pancake rolls were delicious, super oily and crispy- the meat in both was good but I preferred the chicken...however! The sauce on the beef was so yummy, the touch of sweetness. The noodles were delicious, spicy, tons of garlic and had great chew. Service was good and quick.

    D11. Braised Pork Belly
    Yvonne K.

    As good as my Canton mom's. I was heading for a different restaurant when my husband saw this one. It had a waiting list but it was short and quick to get seated. The food has a significant variety. From cold appetizers to xiaolongbao to braised pork belly to chow mein. We ordered it all. The cold chicken with spicy peanut sauce, the combo xiaolongbao of egg and chive or lamb dumplings, the green onion pancakes, braised pork belly, Chinese sausage chow mein, crispy chicken (which is salt and pepper chicken). We literally got everything we could possibly eat. And everything is literally delicious. Is your mom Chinese? Did she make Chinese food for you? Cause get ready for a blast from the past because mama isn't making these dishes in retirement! The location is small. Only about 14 tables. It's bright white inside and you can see who, I presume is Mama Dough herself, rolling dumplings at a counter in the front. If you're looking for good, REAL authentic Chinese food, then you definitely need to come here.

    I see some people saying they order to go, but I CANNOT get them to answer their phone. Any tips or tricks?

    Call blocked

    I am disabled-how FAR in to the mall is it to get to Mama's Dough? Great pain when I walk.. usually can only go about 20 steps before I must sit down. Is this restaurant "do- able" for me? (esp. if someone dropped me off in front?) What entrance?

    I would say it’s 2-3 restaurants in so right about your limit of steps. I always get my food to go and it’s amazing. Perhaps order on the phone and have someone run in to pick up for you? You won’t be disappointed. I hope this helps.

    I'll get straight to the point: This place is lamb heaven…read more One of the best and most unique lamb ribs I've ever had. A thin crisp crust, falling off the bone tender lamb with a nice amount of fat. It's served with a salty spicy dry rub that adds more texture with each bite. The raw sliced onions, not something you'll see with western cuisine, but a staple served with mughlai kebabs in other parts of the world provide sweetness and additional crunch. The lamb buns were great. Unlike most buns or patties or quiche which usually have ground lamb, these had tiny cubes, along with potatoes. Just needed some hot sauce to unlock flavors for me. The lamb soup with noodles was light and super flavorful. Great for a winter afternoon. Service was nice. The place is inside the same mall which houses Ranch Market and is clean with nice comfy seating. Will I return: Definitely

Specializing in lamb, xinjiang naan, and more with a healthy amount of, of course, cumin. Lamb skewers - Glorious meaty flavor, with that very slightly gamey lamb taste and a lot of seasoning. Lamb stir fry - Delicious. I particularly love the lamb chunks that have a bit of fat or tendon on them. I also love the potato in this. Hand pulled wide noodles - These are on-point, especially after the sad and soft ones at Dough Zone. So much texture and the amount of umami they soak up from the juices of the stir fry is brain melting. Naan - They're definitely good, but these are.....sooooooooo dense and filling. As an analogy, if bread -- bagel, then Indian curry naan -- this naan. Honestly, these aren't my favorite, but I can't fault the taste or quality at all. Soup - Oh yeah, this was also perfect with the bread. At a glance, it reminds me a bit of pho broth, but you'll forget once the lamb flavor in it hits like a truck.

Upon arrival on the rainy day i was offered water or warm tea and opted for both. Nothing better than that combo for me. Ordered my usual... Pho with rare steak, tripe, tendon and added meatballs. Broth is flavorful, as with anything you make it how you want after the initial taste and i only add limes and chili oil with the added basil. Nothing else. Fun fact: sriracha and hoisin are meant to be on the side to dip in, not poor into the broth. Also what makes me come back here is the Pork Patty Spring Rolls. The added crispy crunch on the inside makes these next level with the dark Romaine and just enough noodles to not overwhelm them like other places. A little added tunes whether traditional or not would be great. Or maybe the sound from the TVs playing food videos from around Vietnam would be cool. The silence was actually a could change up with the air conditioning and sound from the kitchen cooking. Great experience and glad i finally got to come in here!

There were a few people picking up at the time we entered, but nobody else dining in. When one of the servers came with our cold waters, we placed our food order right away with her. We got two orders of the Pork Patty Spring Rolls, a Kids Meatball Pho, a Combination Pho, a Grilled Chicken Noodle Bowl and a Vietnamese Pancake. After about 5 minutes, we got the Pork Patty Spring Rolls. Every single time we order them, they taste so good!!! Hits the spot whenever we visit this restaurant. Probably our favorite dish, actually. After we devoured the Spring Rolls, our entrees came out - Combination Pho and the Kids Meatball Pho. Then a few minutes later, the Grilled Chicken Noodle Bowl came out. I normally like to pour some Sriracha and Hoisin Sauce into my Noodle Bowl along with the sauce it originally comes with. Mixing everything in all of that makes it that much more flavorful for me! Enjoyed the quiet atmosphere, the food and the service. The Pho broth seemed a little bland and not seasoned as well as before. Other than that, all of the other food items were tasty and to our liking. The restaurant itself has ample amount of space to sit at since there are plenty of seating and tables available. Parking outside is good, there are plenty of spaces to park at as well. There used to be a Big 5 Sporting Goods store, but since that's gone, parking hasn't been an issue at all. They have pretty decent Vietnamese food for reasonable prices and adequate portions.

Luckily I saw Pho T & L was open and I've had this place saved for a while so this was the best timing to try them out. We arrived and it was pretty busy and we weren't sure if we seated ourselves or someone else seats us as it took a few minutes for us to get noticed. After a little of standing awkwardly near the entrance, someone noticed us and motioned us to sit near the check out area which you do need to go up and pay rather than wait for someone to drop off a check. We were given waters and menus and given a decent amount of time to decide what we wanted. My friends got a lemonade with tea, Thai tea, shaking beef and combo vermicelli while my boyfriend got the shaking beef and egg rolls and I got the Bun Bo Hue and spring rolls. My boyfriend got his egg rolls and I didn't get my spring rolls until after everyone's' order came in so I have a feeling that the employee who took our order forgot or the kitchen forgot. There was no apology or anything for it either. I got my food first, after several minutes the shaking beef came out and after another a while my friend got his vermicelli bowl. Luckily we weren't pressed for time but it made it awkward as we didn't get our food at the same time and it took a bit to get them. I am a slow eater so I guess it worked out that I got mine first but I also didn't receive my spring rolls until I brought it up once we received everything else. The food was phenomenal and our friends said their drinks were perfect too. I did enjoy my Bun Bo Hue, though I did make it a bit more spicier with their chili oil. They have plenty of tables and chairs to accommodate all party sizes. They do have a bathroom but you have to go through a long, scary hallway to get to it. The tables have probably the cutest container for their chili oil but I appreciate that they have napkins, sriracha, hoisin, and utensils on the table. The employees don't really check in often and they didn't really come by to fill our waters until we were down with our meal. The service was also pretty much non-existent, it wasn't rude but just felt rushed and cold.

It is located in the Great Wall Shopping Mall in Kent. I recommend entering on the left side( when you're looking at the maib entrance for the mall) doors, as youll see it on your right side. Just look for the lit up red letters. The store itself isn't big, so just be aware as they can get pretty busy. Once inside you'll see fresh veggies, meats and other toppings on the right side. But don't get too carried away, because they do weigh it by the pound and it can add up fast and you'll have the modt expensive malatang ever. Haha. If you have a severe nut or seasame allergy, this place is not for you since they use all of the above. They do advise if you have an allergy to let them know. Its also noted that they use milk in their sous so be aware. They did add a tomato based soup, but there wasnt much details on if they still included the nuts and milk, so please confirm with the staff. I love spicy so I got it spicy, but to me it wasn't but to the rest of the crew, they were sweating. And the staff does advise not to get it if you cant do spicy. If you like pork, the crew got the sweet and sour pork. Its different from other spots since the pork is flattened out. And they said it has a nice crunch and taste. They do have drinks available for purchase from soda to asian teas thats to the right of the register. Service was good, the staff was friendly and nice!
