Quick info
About Mama's Wok
Mama's Wok is a family-run Chinese takeaway at 329 Nitshill Rd in Glasgow, operating on a walk-in basis. The chicken is halal, and the kitchen takes care to avoid cross contamination, which serves customers who eat halal. Staff will also make off-menu items on request, so a dish that is not listed is still worth asking about. The menu includes salt and chilli dishes, sweet and sour chicken with fried rice, and chicken curry. A separate snack menu has options sized for one person.

Customer Review Summary
Salt and chilli dishes are what reviewers praise most, with the salt and chilli chicken wings, chips and pizza bites singled out, and one diner calling them the best salt and chilli in Nitshill. The curry sauce and a chicken breast curry also draw praise, alongside sweet and sour chicken, shredded chicken and chilli chips. A few describe food that arrives fast and hot, friendly staff and great prices, and some order once or twice a week. Reviewers also mention snack menu options for one person and staff who will make off-menu requests, and one says staff take care to avoid cross contamination. The criticism comes from two reviewers. One regular reports a drop in quality over three weeks, with soggy onions and peppers, tough chicken, a lukewarm chicken curry and soggy spring rolls. Another describes a chicken curry with blackened, undercooked chicken that had to be thrown away. One delivery order arrived with complimentary crackers and veggie spring rolls.

“Ordered a chicken curry but the chicken was black, looked like beef, and clearly undercooked. Had to throw it away and order from another restaurant. Waste of money. Would stay clear if no wanting poisoned.”

“Best chinese for salt and chilli food (especially the pizza bites, yum) The curry sauce is also the best. Love the fact this shop does many options on the snack menu for one and it isn’t just the standard choices if you were eating for one. The prices are also great. My go to chinese, both being delivered or picking up myself. Food is always ready fast and always hot. Staff are lovely and helpful.”
