   Delicious food, great cocktails. A fun atmosphere in the heart of Swan street Richmond. Terrific service. This is a great place for a pre match or pre show meal.

   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)

   Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for coming back after the Anzac Day game! We’re thrilled you and your group enjoyed the Feed Me option — it’s great for sharing when it’s tough to choose! So glad the food, presentation, and flavours impressed (especially the lamb massaman — a true favourite!). We appreciate your note about the timing of the larger portions; we always want guests to enjoy the pace of their meal, and your feedback will help us fine-tune the experience. Hope to welcome you back again soon for more flavour bombs and another round of your favourites!

   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.
