For some reason, I expected Mister Mao’s to be a typical dimsum restaurant, but it was a bit different than that. We ordered a bunch of small plates - kashmiri fried chicken, crispy pork belly, smoked lamb belly, gulf shrimp dumplings, garlic noodles and pork lumpia. They didn’t have crab for the noodles, probably not worth getting without it. The pork belly and smoked lamb tasted good on the first bite and kinda went downhill after that. The pork lumpia was really good and so were the dumplings. Overall, nice place and decent food, service was quick and we got a seat at the “chef’s counter” - however, it wasn’t anything special.

Such a unique spot! I loved the twist with South East Asian ingredients fused with local spices too. Everything was delicious. Lamb belly is a must especially if you love some spice!! Highly recommend and the staff are incredible!

Really wanted to love this place after seeing the sample menu but unfortunately fell short of our expectations. Brussel sprouts bhaji was definitely the highlight. But everything else was under seasoned ( asked for salt which made some improvements) and the balance of some dishes were just a little off. Received a comp sorbet which was alright. Maybe stick to flavors you know and work on pumping out a consistent product. Fried chicken needs adjustment. *Presentation was good

After eating here both for dinner and brunch, I highly recommend giving it a try if you’re adventurous and not afraid of spice. The atmosphere and service are great, but I’ve been consistently impressed by the food even more. The menu is definitely unique and eclectic, but I’ve enjoyed nearly everything I’ve tried. I highly recommend the fried chicken. The drinks are also stellar.

First visit but will not be the last. The Agua Chile Verde was amazing. Just the right amount of heat. Had the Mojo Pork tacos and added the coconut rice which added a great flavor.

Am amazed each time by their variety. From Kashmiri fried chicken to poppy Thai style fish or dumplings. Snacking on Ginger salad to Indian poha and pakoras is above all.

Celebrated a big birthday with seats at the Chefs Table and what a TREAT. The food was absolutely incredible but the kindness & friendliness of the team made it an unforgettable night. Joey & everyone in the kitchen somehow made it an effortlessly special experience and we can’t thank them enough!
