Mom's Kitchen Waukesha

First time here. Came with a friend. It was a Monday night, we got here around 6:00. There were several other tables, and we got seated right away. Everyone seemed very welcoming.

Our server did a great job with getting us settled in with menu, waters and eventually a couple of cocktails. Throughout the entire evening (and we stayed until they closed at 8pm) our server did a excellent job with the service, helpful suggestions, and just being authentic and fun! Thanks Nathan.

For cocktails we got the BlueBerry Mojito, and the Smoky Old Mama. The Smoky Old Mama is like a Brandy Old Fashioned but with a little sake, and they actually infuse the drink with real smoked wood chips. They muddled up a bunch of maraschino cherries which is a nice touch. I would definitely come back just for this drink.

We started with a couple of Chive Dumplings. They were different than anything I have had. They are more soft, there is a bottom layer of chives, and the garlic chili sauce really completed the taste profile. Very good!

We ordered the Pad See Ew (Nathan recommended chicken) and the Mussaman Chicken Curry. The chicken was super tender on both. Both entrees had great flavor and were the right temperature. There were no leftovers.

An excellent first time here. Will put this on our "come back" list.

We got to enjoy a wonderful birthday dinner with our oldest son and daughter tonight at Mom's Kitchen. The atmosphere was clean and modern, the food was great, and the service was spectacular. We had a hard time deciding what to order, so between the four of us, as always, we ordered more food than necessary. Thus, we all left comfortably stuffed!

First, we tried a few appetizers. If I can get Tom Kha Kai soup, I will. So, I did. It's one of my favorites! We had the Sushi Tacos, which were so fresh and unique—soft flour taco shells filled with diced tuna, salmon, fried shrimp, avocado, and spicy mayo. The Chive Dumplings were crispy yet soft and full of flavor.

As for mains, the tried-and-true Yellow Curry had just the right spice and was so yummy, with potatoes that were perfectly textured. Mom's Holy Basil dish, a Vietnamese staple, was good old comfort food. The Pad Se Ew with beef was oh so good, with those tender noodles soaking up all the flavors. And lastly, the Lava Shrimp came on a sizzling platter—the shrimp were butterflied and cooked perfectly in a sweet tamarind sauce.

As if we weren't full enough, we all had a few bites of Matcha Cheesecake, complete with a Happy Birthday message and, of course, a candle. Amiee, our server, made sure we understood all that the menu offered and made great recommendations. Her knowledge of the food and service made our birthday dinner a really great experience.

Thank you to Mom's Kitchen! We look forward to trying more of their dishes when we go back!

We've been here several times now and we actually really love it. Very much home cooking. She makes a lot of it from scratch if not all of it. The staff is very friendly almost like they know you. It does get really busy at times. We have tried several different kinds of dishes and they're all really good and like I said homemade. This is a little gem that we found right by us and have become quite addicted to it. If you're worried about it being Thai food, it's really just homemade food and you can find lots of items on there to choose from.. soups, crab Rangoon, rolls, lava chicken was excellent. I love the gorilla and pink gorilla rolls. Really fresh foods.
Love it!

Excellent place and tremendous value. At first this restaurant didn’t pop up on my search when checking for dinner in walking distance to hotel. Upon walking by and seeing a sign for Thai food since the name of the restaurant doesn’t immediately remind me of Thai food. I saw two things that made me try it, a bunch of good reviews, and a Massaman Curry that showed stewed with dark meat chicken all day.

Overall this placed was perfect and can’t wait to try again.

Will drive 30 min for BEST pad Thai. Their sauce for everything IS NOT water down like other places. The curry dish is excellent; the coconut consistency isn't too thick or thin. We were greeted right away. Amy, our waitress, was friendly and very prompt on her service . Will recommend. Kid friendly however no changing table for babies. Plenty of parking and the space isn't crowded. Will definitely come back again.
