After being the ‘life-of-the-party’ in downtown CBD for the last six years, Mama’s ready to kick-start another exciting new venture in the wild, wild East! And where better for this Tiger Mama to roar than the vibrant South-East Asian hub of flavour and culture that is Swan Street, Richmond!

Mama's second-coming will be servin' you Eastside excellence! – but this sequel is just as good as the original!

We’re beyond ecstatic to share this new space with the public and bring the Richmond tiger cubs some of Mama’s lovin’!

The trademark of Mama’s dining experience is the ‘Feed Me Now’ offering! Patrons can bask in all the zingy and fiery flavours in Mama’s repertoire – indulging in a selection of our drool-worthy smaller, larger, and sides dishes – for an affordable spend per diner at $44.50 each!

    Unfortunately our experience at the Richmond location was not good. We had asked that we will be coming with a pram and if it was baby friendly. We were told yes however when we tried to change our baby the baby room had no table to even change the baby, it was a storage room/unisex toilet. We had to then use a toilet paper carton box on the toilet floor to change our baby. This was not ideal/hygeinic at all.

    Our lunch was delicious but a slight concern was the falling debris from the overhead foliage in the side room. We requested a move and were very promptly given an alternative table within the main restaurant by a delightful young waitress.

    Thank you for sharing your feedback with us Jill. We're so glad to hear that you enjoyed your lunch! We also appreciate you bringing the issue with the overhead foliage to our attention, and we're happy to know that our team was able to promptly accommodate you with a new table. We’ll make sure to look into this further to ensure a more comfortable dining experience for future guests. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

    Reliably good fusion food have been there multiple times. Disappointed by the pad Thai this time/ really ordinary and flavourless. Recommend soft shell crab bap buns and all the cocktails are reliably great!

    Delicious! Tasty meals at a reasonable price. A good variety and they were delivered quickly. Service was very attentive and went out of their way to make sure we enjoyed our visit. We discussed how the music was not only good choices, but a perfect volume to enjoy it but still be able to talk to your friends. Thanks for a great meal and evening.

    I have dined at Hochi mama several times unfortunately tonight was very disappointing. I had a table booked at 5.30pm and just over an hour were we told we had to leave as they have to clear the table for the next booking, we had only just finished our meal and wasn’t even offered any dessert! Plus I found a hair in my Roti and the wait staff didn’t even apologise! Not a good experience!
    Hochi Mama RichmondResponded on November 11, 2024
    Thank you for your feedback, Jennifer, and for taking the time to speak with me over the phone. We apologies for the issues you experienced, and we agree that there’s room for improvement.
