What About It
Best food I’ve had in Athens, hands down. 5 stars across the board. Loved everything about this place and I do plan on returning. Number one spot for me and the family.

Really good Thai food. Outdoor seating was lovely, and the service was good too. We had the Tom Kha soup, fresh rolls, drunken noodles, and eggplant basil. The Tom Kha soup and the drunken noodles were wonderful. The eggplant basil tasted amazing. Unfortunately, the eggplant was a bit overdone. The Boba Thai tea was a perfect way to end it all.

It was my first visit. I went to Mama Ning’s with my two daughters and husband. We were all happy with the food and especially my daughter was delighted with the kids menu! Pretty lovely restaurant! Lovely owner!

My husband and I have been here over and over again. He has Celiac Disease and lactose intolerance, so eating out means avoiding dairy, as well as even trace amounts of gluten. This place does gluten-free and dairy-free wonderfully! The staff is knowledgeable and kind, and the food is always delightful.

Mama Ming’s is absolutely delicious! The serving sizes are plentiful. The prices are reasonable. The service is exceptional. You can regulate your spice scale or request no spice if that’s what you want. I suggest that you do not pass up the little cup of diced cucumber that is an added bonus to your order. You will be surprised how delicious it is. The peanut sauce is another one not to be missed. We ordered the pineapple fried rice with cashews and one of the dishes that was labeled as a favorite, Pad see ewe. And don’t forget to order the mango rice for dessert…. absolutely yummy!! I highly recommend Mama Ming’s for your dining pleasure. It’s family friendly and the atmosphere is peaceful and calming. Mama Ming’s is definitely worth going out of your way for.

I liked this place. It was nice and quaint, good service, easy parking and access. I would say a solid 3.5-4 rating for our meal. But I think since I have been living in Asia for the last ten years my standards for Asian food are high.

Good tasting Thai food , make sure you let them know if you have allergy to peanuts or coconut. The space is small and may be best when not too busy if you like a more quiet atmosphere , curtious and quick take out service 😉
