Ma Ma Thai Newark in Newark and Sherwood

So 2 days ago me and my girlfriend decided to go on a date and decided to try mama thai. Yesterday we both had really bad direhea and was in alot of pain with our stomachs. Not going there again. Was a waste of money too.

Lovely Thai restaurant in Newark. Helpful and friendly staff and a good menu choice. Well worth a visit. Plenty of nearby parking available a short walk away

9.5/10 overall - Ice cold coke, amazing curry! Nice spring rolls, amazing sauce 10/10 and only criticism would be there isnt enough rice! Will be ordering again

Really great food, good portions. Lovely staff.

Honestly the best Thai food in Newark. I am half Thai myself and these flavours take me back to my childhood. Thank you for making my day 😊

Absolutely fantastic food and service on Saturday night. I had Red Thia Prawns and sticky rice, the best I’ve tasted in years. 100% thoroughly recommend.

Ordered online and been waiting for my delivery but after 40min. later this restaurant just cancelled my order without any reason. Very disappointed!!!

Amazing food and service. It is a very pleasant place to have a night out with family and friends.

Authentic Thai cuisine, staff is very nice, highly recommended.

Possibly the best Thai food I had for the past years. I eat Thai food 1-2 weekly and have to be honest. Nothing in this place is disappointing. Service is friendly, times are acceptable and the food is out of this world. Nothing I had I could fault but only recommend. Fantastic.

Not worth the price. The soup is water with pieces of hard, sour sticks. The spring rolls are soft, watery, cut in half due to the small box. Very small portion.

We had arrived back at East Midlands airport this afternoon after a super holiday in Greece. Stuck in traffic for what seemed like hours we drove into Newark to look for a place to eat. Found this lovely Thai Restaurant & ordered our meals. I had Chicken Pad Thai & my husband had a Red Thai Chicken Curry with Coconut Rice plus Prawn Crackers. We had a beer & fruit juice. The meals came swiftly & were hot, good sized portions, freshly made & totally delicious. The bill came to just over £40 which was very reasonable & we were certainly very pleased that due to the awful traffic we made the decision to head into town to eat. We hope to return to this lovely place & met by a very welcoming member of staff & super food. Highly recommend.

No tofu.... ordered tofu got lots of duck no tofu....

Good service very nice food the best Thai food I have ever had. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Exceptional food from Ma Ma Thai, highly recommend the Massamam Curry!

Delicious food in good price, was a collection in 15 mins. I would definitely order again from here.

Excellent as always!!! Hot, tasty and just like it is in the restaurant

Why isn't this place packed out at lunchtimes? People should be queuing at the door! The food and service is fabulous and consistently so. Absolutely love this place! Definitely worth a visit 😍

Food arrived piping hot, on time, and delicious. What more can you ask for.

We dined on a Friday evening and it was surprisingly quiet. The food was superb!! The starters and the mains were both excellent. Brilliant quality of meat (especially the brisket!!). Looking forward to our next visit. We really enjoyed it. Probably the best Thai we’ve had in Newark

Really delicate beautiful food. Red and green curries amazing. Service perfect. Restaurant nice and warm. Didn't have to wait for food. Will be back. And there is take away option

Food very good, bit chilly, definitely need a thick jumper.

The food is so good here, and they have vegan options even though it's not listed on the menu.

Absolutely wonderful service and food was excellent. I definitely recommend this restaurant as #1 best Thai food in Nottinghamshire. Will definitely be going back soon.

Service was good, food wasn’t great. Noodles tasted like they had been mixed in a cheap supermarket sweet and sour sauce. Other dish was nice but average at best.

Had a meal booked with my partner as we were staying the night a few doors down. Service was flawless. Very attentive and friendly and ensuring we had our water topped up. Food was absolutely delicious and flavourful. Very reasonably priced :) Had the prawn crackers, cocktail soup (enjoyed it so much forgot to take a photo until the last few mouthfuls), mocktail, chips, sweet and sour chicken and coconut rice. Enjoyed every bit. Highly recommended *****

The staff were very friendly and attentive, the food was tasty but expensive for what it was, we had the set menu which was ok but I was not blown away by the flavours, the seabass was quite dry and mainly tasted of sweet chilli sauce which was a shame.

The best thai i have ever eaten, everything was delicious and tasted so fresh. We had the pad thai and was full of flavour as well as the salt and pepper squid and beef. We will be returning for sure!

I can’t believe we haven’t eaten here before, the food is incredible! It’s a shame we live in London (where we are spoilt for choice of Thai restaurants but none even come close to this one), but luckily we have links to here so we do come often enough. And now this will be our favourite place to eat. Both the five spice duck and the beef brisket are out of this world. Can’t wait to come again!

We visit Ma Ma Thai for lunch on our first visit to Newark. We just took a chance and so pleased we did! We had one of the best meals I've had outside of Thailand. We started with the classic Thai starter selection of satay, spring rolls, fish cakes, prawns etc and it was all delicious - spring rolls and fish cakes can be quite uninspiring but these were so fresh with first class ingredients and so way above average. We followed this with curries which were also excellent. I look forward to another visit and trying more dishes. The quality was outstanding, fresh and authentic. The only thing I missed was salad. I love Thai salads and would have liked to have seen some on the menu.

Great customer service and tasty food, the duck was nice and crispy

Wow what an amazing meal we just had! The absolute best since I went to Thailand. We didn’t wait for ages for the food, the staff were so attentive and friendly. Couldn’t recommend this place enough! Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Had a lovely meal here for the first time . Great food with fab service . Good portion size . We will certainly return.

Just give 2 Star,seat not comfortable, portion is to small, seafood is terrible,not cook properly,never more visits this restaurant.👎👎price is big and food not good.I be in lots if restaurants and this is definitely 👎👎👎

Outstanding from start to finish. Superb food. Very friendly and efficient staff and great value for money. Next time in Newark they will be top of the list

Absolutely great food, friendly, helpful staff, a very good experience and would go again.

This is some of the best Thai food I have ever had..which includes living in Thailand. Its a must visit

Great local thai place, awesome crispy starters - great curries and stir fries.

We decided last minute to eat here, so glad we did as we had been when it first opened and wasn’t impressed. We were greeted by two lovely ladies who welcomed us. The food was amazing so tasty! We did eat early 6.30 and by the end of our meal the restaurant was full. Plenty of choices on the menu’s for meat eaters and vegetarians . We shall definitely be visiting again and highly recommend this restaurant

Had a delicious lunch, deliberately chose different things so we could try and all was delicious. Very authentic Thai food with lovely flavourings. Attentive but non intrusive service made it all the better. Had previously experienced their food as take away but the dining in experience was better.

The most amazing food … beautiful service the food was out of this world

I’ve only been here once but the food was so good. It’s a small menu which keeps it simple and probably helps with the kitchen for them to ensure your food has the best fresh ingredients. The calamari starter was excellent with the sweet chilli dipping sauce which brought it to another level. I had food envy for everyone’s dishes at they came out. The Tai Green curry was excellent. Would thoroughly recommend trying this place.

First visit to this restaurant and will definitely be back. The food and service were exceptional. The food was delicious and beautifully presented, the decor and ambiance was warm and friendly and the service was professional, friendly and first rate. This place deserves to be packed all the time.

Decided to eat dinner here after the cinema. What a great choice that was! We decided to go for one of their set meals and it was absolutely delicious. The chicken green curry was a particular highlight. The restaurant and food are all beautifully presented too. The staff were very helpful and polite. We will definitely be back.

I had the Green Curry and my wife had the Chicken in Blackbean sauce stir fry. The quality of the food was amazing with a wonderful service. Would highly recommend 👌🏼👌🏼

The food was horrible as the chicken meat was rubbery and not crispy at all the salad was wilted and black as if it was heated up from yesterday. The soup was also horrible as the mushrooms did not look fresh and the prawns did not seem fresh ether when I bit it they had weird grainy texture. I was afraid to eat this food. Disappointed...

Went in for dinner last night. Food was absolutely amazing 😃‼️ Can't wait to go back. Recommend to everyone 😋👍‼️ 20 out of 10 delish 🥰‼️

Disappointed with the quality, flavour and price performance of the dishes here. Prawn Pad Thai: Extremely Sweet unpleasent stir fry sauce. Prawns tasteless. Chicken masamman and Rice: Dry and flavourless chicken in sweet curry sauce. Rice was of poor quality. Prawn Dumplings: Minced Prawn wrapped in dumpling sheet. Not pleasant to bite and eat. Lacked flavour. Veg spring rolls: Great and delicious. Very quick delivery via Deliveroo. Will not be ordering from here again as it was not cheap for what it delivered. All the best.

The food here is absolutely amazing! What I ordered filled me to the brim and was so good!! The prawn dumplings are my favourite; it tastes so good! I’d like to come back here the next time I visit Newark.

absolutely shocking customer service. first of all, we reserved a table prior to arriving and we were excited to come eat here since we wanted to celebrate our anniversary. upon arrival, we were quickly told that our booking is not written down and had to wait standing up for a long time as the lady at the front goes to the back of the kitchen to sort the issue. this wouldn’t have been an issue if I wasn’t in crutches, but this lady who greeted us at the front not only left us hanging at the front of the restaurant but showed absolutely no consideration for someone who is clearly in pain and in crutches on top of all things. even as I am writing this I am in great pain caused by that lady’s lack of concern and empathy for her customers. as an employee who works for a restaurant or any establishment, it should be the bare minimum to at least give a seat to the person who is clearly injured/disabled and to be neglected especially when you are injured/disabled and struggle to stand up. it is truly shocking to know that even in this day and age there are actual grown adults working in the public sector who lack the absolute bare minimum manners and consideration towards their customers. it is so unfortunate that I’m saying this as the food is truly incredible and all the other employees were lovely. unfortunately, it’s only that one lady who genuinely lacks any sort of empathy, social skills and consideration towards the customers, aka the people who put money in YOUR pockets.

First time to visit this establishment and overall were not disappointed. We did have a long wait for the food to arrive. Normally this is not too much of an issue but annoying when two other tables were served quite some time before us when they came in later than us. The food however, was well worth waiting for. The prawn dumplings were mouth watering. We will visit again

Good basic Thai food but could do with some more interesting dishes on the menu. Thought it was expensive, £45pp for a set menu and a shared bottle of wine (bottle from Asda across the road 🙈) Staff were friendly, although a little slow on service. I enjoyed the Green Thai curry and the prawn dumpling in the starter but was disappointed with the rest. I might not return ☹️

We came here for a New years eve meal and it was fantastic. The portions were massive and we couldn’t eat everything so had to take a doggy bag. The service was fast and we had two courses and drinks in less than an hour. Food was perfectly balanced, especially the curry- it was exceptional. We will definitely be visiting again soon. We absolutely loved the table decorations too, little touches like that make the experience even better - the napkins even smelt of fresh washing so you could tell that they take cleanliness seriously in there.

This restaurant has really excellent food, and the service is good. However, the drinks are terrible. We paid £3.50 each for 'Folkington's Freshly Pressed Juices' only to watch the waitress pull a carton of Asda's juice out of the fridge and pour some into a glass.

Excellent food. Lovely presentation. Very pleasant service.

It was our second time being there, delicious food, friendly staff

A delicious meal and superb service. Fully recommend. Many thanks 😊

Very tasty and great value. Fantastic service. We shall come again soon.

Very delicious, authentic Thai taste. There will definitely be a chance to come back again. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Went there with 3 friends today in Newark. Food was excellent, service was very friendly and efficient. Would definitely recommend this great Thai restaurant. There were no other customers at the time. but don't let that put you off - this place is a little gem.

Beautiful food, 4 lads out for a lunch time drink decided to give the restaurant a try, good service and reasonably priced. Some of the best Thai food I have had in a long time, everybody enjoyed all the food, would certainly recommend

Great food and great service.Went for a date night and wasn’t disappointed, nice atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.. try the moo ping!! 😍

Small Thai restaurant in Newark and as a friend and I were passing through we thought we would give it a go. The setting is nice, spacious seating and lovely (if a little tacky in places) decoration. Menu is a good size. I’m not a...

The food was absolutely beautiful and the best Thai we've had in a long time. My only concern is the very young staff they are using. They will need more training if they're a permanent fixture. I also disagree with a statutory service charge being...

Me and my wife have been multiple times to this establishment since it’s opening, I must say we’ve never had a bad experience and the food is always superb. I would certainly recommend 👌🏻

I have been to this restaurant 3 times before and everything was excellent.. however went on Saturday went with friends on Saturday 16th July to find the whole experience disorganised from ordering to paying... attention to the customer and their ordering was lacking.... the counter...

Stopped off on our way to Cambridge for what we thought would be a quick bite to eat! It took over 59 minutes for our main courses to arrive!! The food was ok but expensive for what it was. The staff were friendly but the service was slow.

We ate at this restaurant for the first time and it did not fail to please. The food was freshly cooked and hot, and the flavours terrific! Price is average. The only negative comment I have is that there was no draft beer. I'm not...

Took about 20mins just to get our drinks. Maybe 30mins for starters & it wasn't busy. One of our party asked for 'no mushrooms' as she is allergic. Her starter was full ... of mushrooms! My chicken ginger & mushrooms was very bland - almost tasteless, overcooked & sloppy. Friendly staff but very slow service & all our food just slightly disappointing.

The staff is rude, argued what he though is right and asked us ‘are you new to the UK’ WHAT? You stayed here for a long time it doesn’t mean you are always right!!?? Food was not good as images shown in review and what we experienced in Asia.

Not sure why this restaurant has such a low TA rating - I can only assume it’s because there are only two reviews and one relates to a Deliveroo order… Anyway speaking personally, I thought the food and service here were both wonderful. Great atmosphere...

Nice food but did come out spicier than expected. The glass front facing the main road could do with obscuring in some way I did think it was abit expensive

Our first visit to the revamped Mama Thai on Beaumont Cross, Newark. The refurbishment looks good, the menu was varied and we really enjoyed our mixed starters with dips (a sharing plate for two) followed by Crispy Thai Mama Duck w/coconut rice and Chicken Pad...

The food was 5 star plus The decor although very clean was just to contemporary But it's a must excellent

Have dinner there, nice environment, good food s & drink, waiters good service

Fantastic meal, best Thai food I’ve had and great service

Very good food and great customer service. Kids loved the moo ping and healthy duck (spicy). Will recommend!

Very lovely Thai food and staff! Came here on the Saturday night, we’ve ordered Pad Thai and Thai green curry with jasmine rice! They were both phenomenal! We’ll be back soon for sure☺️

I will return to try their set menu. Meals were delicious, hearty and very tasty. Even the kids enjoyed our stole from our starters...😀 Service was also brilliant, very. Welcoming and friendly. Great evening out.

Ordered for a birthday meal via Deliveroo - for the first time - and was impressed with the speed of delivery. However, a dish was missing from our order and from then on it all went downhill. Restaurant refused to replace and told us to...
