We had an amazing time at Hochi Muma. The food was next level. Our waitress Mariah was a true gem. She explained our food choices, guiding us to try a couple of dishes. Book early as ours was last minute and we could only get an outside table. Brilliant experience.

My friend and I had the express lunch menu for $39 per person. Plate after plate provided amazing flavour and beautifully presented. The dishes are fresh and definitely something to savour. We were welcomed like friends and the service very attentive. Each plate was explained to us, drinks quickly arrived at our table and the foot is something else. I cannot wait to go back. I definitely recommend this restaurant.
