This hidden little gem in Fort Wayne's downtown is something you'll wish you'd discovered years ago. Located on Calhoun St. just blocks from South Side High School, this little place doesn't look like much from the outside, and isn't exactly something to write home about from the inside either. Mah'nin has a maximum capacity of 25 customers, and only about five copies of their menu, and coupled with the appearance of the building and the occasional language barrier between the employees and customers, you may be hesitant to try it out. DON'T BE! The food is incredibly tasty, featuring a limited Thai and Burmese menu for incredibly cheap prices (typically I'd spend ~$15 for full dinners for my girlfriend and myself). They offer variable levels of spice to meet everyone's comfort zone, and have the "common" Thai dishes for those less adventurous. 

Price: 4.5/5 incredibly cheap for good quality, friendly service, and good sized portions

Taste: 7.5/10 not the best I've had, but it'll certainly make you want to come back

Selection: 3/5 while the menu doesn't tote very many items, they are likely dishes you won't find elsewhere in town

Atmosphere:  2/5 the tiny little building looks like it could use some TLC and you'll likely be in view of ingredient storage regardless of where you sit, but certainly friendly and inviting

Overall:  17/25  This is a place you can easily drive right by everyday without noticing, but once you try it, you'll be hard pressed to drive by WITHOUT stopping in for a bite!
