MaMa Street Food, Davie FL

I came to checkout the snails. My mom got the quail. Everything was amazing! My mom is a picky eater and ate the most saying how good it is. The surprising thing is how pricey everything is

Vietnamese Ốc. Dammmm:) please stop by to try. I order more than I need and I still want more.

Late entry - About a year ago or so, this was the place for us to go. They had the best vegan ramen soup around town. Unfortunately, they have taken it off the menu, and hopefully, they'll decide to start making it again. If you go on the weekend or later evening this place is packed. They are worth the drive if you're interested in great tasty ramen. The staff is always friendly and helpful too.

I can't believe I've never reviewed Mama Tofu before. I've been several times whenever I hit up 545 Banh Mi Cafe and Mama YaTai Donut. You can't miss this place because they have the cute little tables and chairs, just like they have in Vietnam! The scooters out front are for show. Hehe. This spot is a legit Asian street food spot.

So my Asian friends always talk about Mama Tofu and the authenticity of the dishes. They talk about the snails and lemongrass tofu all the time. Went to a party where someone brought the lemongrass tofu and let me just tell you.it's damn good! The tofu is extra crispy and the fresh grated ginger with that sauce is perfection. No joke, I come here specifically for the lemongrass tofu and it never disappoints. If you can, eat it immediately because it's the absolute best when it's fresh and hot.

I've also gotten the Bun Rieu, which is a difficult Vietnamese dish to find almost anywhere. Very rare. Kind of like Mi Quang which is another one of my faves. The Bun Rieu is one of their most popular dishes here and my first bite reminded me of my parent's cooking. They use to make Bun Rieu all the time and this was very nostalgic for me.

There are so many good items on the menu I need to come back for like the Cua Rang Muoi (Salty-pepper crab), Mi Bo Kho, Hu Tieu, congee, and Rau Ma (pennywort) beverage.

This place is sooooo good! If you’re an exotic food adventurer and love seafood, this is the place to go! Their salt and pepper snail is really tasty, packed with flavor. You have to order their Hai Nam Chicken, we promise you won’t stop after taking your first bite and this may well be the best in South Florida. The Mama fried tofu, calamari, and wings are great apps to start with. The Lemongrass Chicken Joints are unique and very addicting! Remember to pick up their refreshing, homemade juices and teas, can’t find it anywhere else.

10/10 recommend, definitely will be back!

Wanted to eat here but no pho restaurant looked very authentic and cute heart broken about my soup

Loved their mopeds displays and the food was delicious! Very friendly and wonderful people.

We came here 3 times during the 3 days/2nights stay in Miami (and it took 45 minutes with traffic to get there from Miami). That to say how much I love this place!

Being a street food lover, before getting to Miami, this is a MUST visit place for me! The hours need to be updated! They now open on Thursday as well!

I always saw a diverse group of people who come here, although the food is very authentic! I has always been cautious with Vietnamese restaurants that are not catered to Vietnamese clients. I would say this place a unique exception.

First of all the food, with my many visits, I got to try the following
- Oc huong
- Chao Long
- Hu tieu
- Sua bap (corn milk)
- Bun rieu
- Ngheu hap sa
- Tra bi dao

I love everything we tried but if I have to pick my top 3 absolute favorite, that would be chao long, oc huong and corn milk! Being Vietnamese I know it is not easy to make this rice soup without a weird smell lol! That could only happen with skill (of course) and fresh pork intestine!

Oc huong (snail) I know it has a fancy name that I don’t remember! The snail is really good and really really fresh! The corn milk and tra bi dao were also amazing! They came in cute little containers with the handles

The food here reminds me so much of my childhood! And there are many dishes that you cannot find easily at different parts of the country. I would also love trying trung ga non (young chicken eggs) but my tummy said no! No more room hahaha! I am excited for the next time I come back to Miami! We probably need to stay in Fort Lauderdale instead just because of this place! And how much Vietnamese street food means to me (bring pieces of my childhood memory back)

The restaurant is small but very nicely decorated and offers sittings outside! Even the restroom is nice and clean! We didn’t have to wait long for our food to come out!

The service was AMAZING! We were talking about how you can tell if the person you are meeting at a restaurant is an owner or not because of their ownership, care and how they treat the clients. The young woman that we met all 3 times we were here was so nice and attentive. She went above and beyond for an amazing experience! If she didn’t tell me about “the owner” I would have thought she was the owner! Kudos to the great team they have here!

Our family came to Mama Street Food and we ordered Hu Tieu and Bun Rieu soups. The place is extremely small with only 3 tables. The soup was delicious, but it was so hard to eat hot soup in a hot place. The room was warm before the soup came, but when we started eating we were sweating profusely, thanks to the hot soup. I noticed there is an A/C control unit on the wall with a room temperature showing 80F. I asked the person behind the counter if it could be adjusted lower and the person said that is the best the A/C can cool the room. It has been about 2 months since we first visited the place and the place was also warm then. Apparently, they did not fix the warm room to make it more enjoyable to eat hot soup. We will not be coming back until the winter time.

Went here a few times when they 1st opened, service and food were excellent. I am shocked this time, they are not so busy but apparently they don’t care about customers no more. We were standing waiting for a table to be clean, told them we will take this table, a man squeeze in and sit at our table. We told the manager and her response is “that is your problem”. Too bad we already pay for food, otherwise we would walk away. I then asked her if they have “nước mát”, a special but common Vietnamese drink, she response “i don’t know what nước mát you are asking for, don’t you read our drink menu? ”. Everything is self serve when I asked for anything. I regretted I tipped them 20% when I ordered food. The same girl was very nice to us last year, came to our table and asked if she could do anything to serve me better. What happen to that girl? What happen to this place? Food is ok like they are making in a rush, not bad but not great like it used to be.

The atmosphere does give vibes of the snail shops in Vietnam. The food however pales in flavor. There is more focus on appearance rather then flavor. The Dungeness crab is probably the worst culprit where using frozen crab takes away from the taste of the dish.

I came in today and had the pleasure of trying Mama Street Food's authentic Vietnamese Street Food, and it was an incredible experience! As a first-timer exploring these new flavors, I can confidently say that this hidden gem is destined for greatness, especially for those who enjoy bold and flavorful dishes.

The crab meatball soup exceeded my expectations, with its perfect balance of spiciness and exquisite taste. The fried squid was a delightful surprise, as it was incredibly crispy and bursting with flavor. The steam clams were an absolute standout - their unique and flavorful profile left me wanting more.

To complement our feast, we opted for Mama Street Food's house-made strawberry tea and peach tea. These refreshing beverages perfectly complemented the rich and diverse flavors of our meal, enhancing the overall dining experience.

Despite being a small establishment with limited indoor and outdoor seating, the service was outstanding during my visit. The staff was attentive, friendly, and keen on ensuring we had an enjoyable time. Their exceptional service added an extra touch to the overall experience.

In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Mama Street Food to anyone seeking an authentic taste of Vietnamese Street Food in South Florida. The impressive range of dishes, combined with the welcoming atmosphere and top-notch service, creates an unforgettable dining experience. Don't miss out on this culinary delight!

The restaurant is small but the staff is very nice. Every food is delicious. Restaurant should try.

Place is good but missing a wow factor I think. Decoration it's pretty cute and they have legit Vietnamese style outdoor sitting in the tiny chairs. Would have liked more flavor on the food.

They got everything I love. Citizens are lucky to have a restaurant like this in town.
Variety of Drinks Food, street atmosphere, cool indoor, fast service.
We are from San Diego California, we confirm this place has the taste of Viet food.

A bit of Vietnamese street food experience in Davie FL! Will recommend for great tasting authentic Vietnamese soups or Pho. POrk and seafood soup. The broth is so flavorful. Add some chili for enhanced taste and you are good to go. Order and grab a table.

Good place for very unique Vietnamese street food. Dishes you can’t find elsewhere like snails, chicken joints, and more. I was a bit disappointed that some menu items were simply unavailable, and that some options couldn’t be made vegetarian, but the staff were very friendly and suggested good alternatives. I really liked the calamari rings and the sauce that it came with. The chicken joints were good too! They also have a few classic dishes like Bun Bo Hue. Limited seating indoors and outdoors. Pretty pricey, but they have dishes you can’t get anywhere else in the area.

Delicious Ramen bowl, plenty of hot sauces to choose from. Staff is amazing definitely recommend it for a fun date!

I tried this time chicken feet and joints with corn milk and sit outside with tiny table and seats.

It is one of a kind, The whole experience was really nice, you order with the cashier and she was super nice explaining everything to me and my group. High quality food, tasty, and quick service. Oh! Don't forget to try the delicious drinks.
