Mamasan's

Mamasan's is located at 2800 Monroe Avenue, right across from the Pittsford Wegmans. It is a fairly large, mid-scale Thai restaurant. Most noodle or rice dishes are in the $10 to $16 range, with the option of adding tofu, chicken, pork, beef or shrimp. The service is incredibly quick and I've never seen it busy.

Mamasan's was a god-send one night when nothing seemed to suit us and it was already 9:00 pm. We had been meaning to try it out, but I thought the outside looked kinda fancy. The inside has definitely been decorated by a professional (with kind of odd, modernistic, space-station tastes), but it's not high-brow.

This photo is of Mamasan's noodles, which is a favorite for its sweet sauce (I think it's a better Pad Thai than their Pad Thai, which is probably better than any other Pad Thai in Rochester). All the dishes have tons of vegetables and you can even add more for an extra $2. The Thai curry is another favorite.

The spring rolls were too rubbery, and I haven't managed to experiment with some of the other dishes yet. The sodas don't have refills, but they do offer a decent selection of beer (including Thailand's Singha) and wine.

Final Word: with fast service, plenty of options, and fresh-tasting food, it's well worth price.
