Our Story lotus

AMASAN'S opened for business in 1984 in the modest confines of a converted donut shop. Located in the heart of Rochester, New York's cultural district and minutes from the headquarters of Kodak, Bausch & Lomb and other major corporations, the restaurant began serving the lunchtime crowd and quickly developed a loyal following. Customers enjoyed the unique flavors of the Vietnamese and Thai cuisine served at the restaurant, the first of its kind in Rochester.

Inside Mamasan's The popularity of Mamasan's grew over the years as the restaurant garnered rave reviews from food critics and customers alike. Rochester locals voted the healthy and savory Thai and Vietnamese-inspired dishes the "Best of Rochester" several times, and Mamasan's was featured on an episode of Food TV's "Dining Around."

Over time the building was remodeled to include greater seating and increased parking, much to the delight of Mamasan's fans weary of parking shortages in downtown. (Visitors for lunch or Friday and Saturday dinner will tell you it is sometimes not enough!)

Today, in spite of its success, Mamasan's remains a small, family-run business. The friendly staff greets regular customers by name and often remembers their favorite dish. And during its busiest hours, when the restaurant is buzzing with activity, there's a sense that this is the place to be. The restaurant has become a place where celebrities and regular folks dine among each other while many customers travel from great distances, all sharing a common goal: to eat great food.

The size and shape of the restaurant may have changed over the years, but the focus has remained the same: provide a casual, friendly dining environment for guests, and let the food do the rest.

Satisfying the tastes of Mamasan's guests - it's just business as usual.
