About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
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!

    Have been here before but booked to go after the Anzac Day game. We chose the Feed me option which worked well as the people with us couldn’t choose. Not one meal disappointed everything was stunningly presented and a flavour bomb.its good to go somewhere and be excited by the food.I personally would prefer not all the food to come at once especially in regards to the large portions. Favourites were the duck wonton, the pad Thai and without fail the lamb massaman (we have had this every time we have have been to Hochi Mama and it’s amazing)

    Fantastic service and atmosphere, couldn't fault the venue itself, but the food is quite average, most people, including ourselves and at neighbouring tables didn't seem to get through their full meal.. The small meals were really nice, but the larger plates leave a bit to be desired in terms of flavour, quality and value for money.
    Hochi Mama RichmondResponded 4 days ago

    We had the "Feed me now" lunch option which offered great variety and value for money. The quality of the food was excellent and there were plenty of options on the menu to please everyone. The service was very good: attentive, good natured and helpful. We enjoyed everything so much we are booking again for our next get together!

    went with 5 family members for a get together. Had the Feed Me menu, which was awesome and good value. Couple of beers and some lovely wines to compliment the meal. A great variety of food, with some delicate flavours. Great night all round and we will be back. Staff were very friendly and professional too.

    We had a fantastic time! Was greeted by name as we walked into the restaurant which shocked and flattered me. The food on the feed me now menu sounded absolutely amazing and the 2 small, 2 large, and 1 side dish we ordered was perfection! Again Hochi Mama you beat expectations and continuously inspire to cook more and to come back more often

We’re thrilled to hear you had such a fantastic time and loved the warm welcome (it’s always our goal to make everyone feel special from the moment they arrive). So glad the Feed Me Now menu was a hit, and it’s wonderful to know we’ve inspired you both in the kitchen and to visit us more often! We can’t wait to welcome you back again soon for another memorable meal.
