Reviews for Ma Ma's Thai Cuisine in Pittston, PA
Delish! I'm new to this part of the country and so glad I found a great Thai restaurant.
Maybe I just came on a bad day but I ordered two gai yangs , came to pick it up and the place is super cute. Thought about... giving this place a shot since there is not a lot of options in pittston, but to be honest I was a bit disappointed. Somethingwas making the plates smell like dirty old socks/sweat it was horrible. Can?t tell if it was the seasonings or if it was comingfrom the papaya salad. We also waited 30 minutes like they asked and we arrived on time and the food was already cold. Myhusbands rice managed to be overcooked and undercooked at the same time. I?ve had Thai food before and the best place I?ve beentoo is In grand central market in Los Angeles Called Sticky Rice. Anyways I don?t like giving bad reviews (if anything I camehere cause of the great reviews) but for the price of the food Id rather not come back. I left a tip as well to be kind, don?tregret that but definitely regret making the choice to eat here today. My curiosity about this place is no longer, anddefinitely dissatisfied. Also to the other reviewer who pointed out my review. Just cause you had a good plate that day doesn?tmean we did especially if you?re leaving a review after mine. I?ve had plenty of Thai food and I won?t sugar coat that it wasn?tgood that day. My rating changed based on the owners pleasant response, I still think they?re awesome. But I still stand by myopinion on the food for that day. ??????????? Edit: I decided to give 5 stars instead of me the original 1 star for the kindresponse from the owner even though I stand by what I said about the food. Also no need for a refund seeing as how I still ateout of hunger. (But they still gave me a refund today which is very kind they didn?t have to do that) I had a feeling it was thefish sauce hence why I mentioned the Papaya salad. There is always room for improvement, so again 4 stars for the service theygive. They are a small business so give them a chances. take care. best wishes to the owner. Read more
This place is (currently) take-out only. But the staff is very friendly and the food is just great. It's nice to see a really... good Thai place in Pittston Read more
Everything exceeded our expectations. We had the Tom Kah, Pad Kee Mao, Panang Curry, and Papaya Salad. Not sure what the other... reviewer is referencing with the dirty sock smell, we thought the fish sauce was on point and have found our new favorite Thaispot. The owner is unbelievably sweet and we will definitely be ordering again. Read more

Such a wonderful little restaurant. It?s takeout only, but when I told Ma Ma we were on a road trip, she said we were welcome to... sit at the counter and eat. Excellent food and excellent customer service! Read more
There have been a few restaurants in and out of this location, and this is the one we want to keep!!! We?ve been here twice and... both times were exceptional. I ordered red curry and panang curry at a level 2 spicy, and it really had a kick. Mama is fromThailand and cooks real Thai food. If you like Thai, this is where you want to go. Read more
Nervous as Americans to try out Thai food, however the place was clean and quaint, the lady behind the counter was very polite... and easy going while also maintaining the customer/cook relationship. She was very pleasant to interact with and the lobby wasvery cozy, clean and comforting. Soft lighting and a small space makes waiting no real problem for me. We paid around ~$20 for agood amount of food, enough for my mother and I to each eat around half of the portion and have leftovers. The taste waspleasant and the spiciness of my food wasn't a strong lasting spice, it was a good quality spicy that was adding to the flavorof the food. Being a small business and having such a polite and kind atmosphere makes this Thai place a very eachrecommendation for first timers and people who live in the area. Also is great because you support local businesses and helpyour community thrive. Thanks again Mama Read more
