Wasn't really expected amazing food from this place. But, when unexpected the food was very good. The waiter was very nice and friendly, very good service. And the ambiance, just amazing. We ordered the Tea Leaf Salad, Chuken and Potato Curry with Platha, and the Garlic Chiken Noodles. Everything was great. The tea leaf salad was extraordinary, it was very flavorful and delicious. Very kid friendly. 10/10, I highly recommend this place. read more

Food was great. We had the Pan tay noodles with chicken, which I think was the best dish with a wonderful smoky flavor, Tea leaf salad was refreshing and the perfect dish as a appetizers, egg curry and okra with paratha was good, although the paratha was a little decadent for my liking, nonetheless it tasted indulgent. We also had the spicy fish fry which was good too. Looks like a family run business, the owner was friendly and genuine. Would definitely recommend. read more

What a great find! We were starving after picking someone up at the airport & she was keen to try Burmese. Thanks to Yelp we found this sweet spot right on our way. Staff was so nice & friendly and the food was amazing!! read more

Gave this place a second chance. I wasn't disappointed! I came in day 1 of their grand opening and it wasn't the best. But today completely changed my mind! Beautiful interior. The owner is super sweet and super helpful when deciding what to order. Food was tasty and had good portions. Thank you! read more

Went there last night with two other friends. Great food and service. The owner and his family run a friendly warm casual restaurant with some of the best Burmese foood I've had. Especially loved the tea leaf salad and fish chowder. The noodles and shrimp salad were also delicious. I recommend asking for recommendations and the waiter will guide you well. We'll be coming back soon. read more

This is the best Burmese restaurant I have ever had. The owner is very kind and attentive. Food is delicious. They were playing Burmese music and I felt like I was in Burma. The ambiance was cozy and relaxed. We enjoyed the meals and also the Faluda is a must especially for the hot weather. read more

Amazing food!!! Must try!! Never had Burmese food before, but safe to say I am now a fan. The spicy crispy shrimp was my absolute favorite, so unique and delicious. The owner was so cool and funny as well! read more

Delicious food, especially the tea salad, but all the food we had was delicious!! Good service, try it!! 5 stars

The place was clean with friendly staff. Their tea leaf was ok compared to others that I had from other Burmese restaurants.

Food was delicious and service was great although it was a very busy night. The ambiance was very lively and it was a great experience.

We went on a Sunday for lunch and were the only ones in the restaurant. They only serve lunch Friday-Sunday so maybe customers don't know about their lunch hours. It's a family run place, friendly and appreciative of your business. We were able to park out front (free parking on Sundays!). We had the Tealeaf Salad, Coconut Chicken Noodle Soup, and Pan Tay Noodles. $62 including tax and tip. read more

I spent time in Myanmar(Burma), and this food is as authentic as it gets. The mohinga and tea leaf salad are a staple of Myanmar, and you won't be disappointed. The owner, Soe, and his staff are extremely friendly, which makes you want to come back again. I love it! read more

Very accommodating when we brought our baby here for dinner. Enjoyed the egg curry, stir fried egg noodles and tea leaf salad, all of which were super flavorful. I wish the portions were a bit larger but the quality was definitely A+. read more

This new Burmese restaurant opened about 2 months ago. My family has eaten at almost every Burmese restaurant in the Bay Area, and I would rank Burma Silver Star among the great restaurants in terms of taste and authenticity. We'll definitely be back. We had mohinga (fish noodle soup), fried shrimp salad, lamb curry, khouk swe thoke (noodle salad), garlic noodle, spicy crispy fish, and faluda. The one dish I really wanted to eat was the Burmese "tofu" salad, but it was not available today. Hot tea is complementary. Interior is clean and spacious. read more

So glad this restaurant is back. I've had tea leaf salad there now twice and very much appreciate the extra chili provided on request. You can ask for dishes to be made vegetarian although the menu would benefit from having a few more veggie/vegan options. The garlic noodles are silky smooth and delicious-- we will definitely return. read more

We weren't sure what to eat tonight for dinner but we're both craving something home made, fresh, and delicious. We were able to meet all 3 at Burma Silver Star. The staff was so friendly and offered some insight on what to order/recommendations. The samosa was so hot and fresh and the sauce was so complimentary. My partner got the chicken curry with pumpkin and the chicken was so tender the pumpkin was an excellent addition as well. I got the chicken veggie rice noodles which was a solid go to. We met the owner who was very attentive and offered recommendations for when we come back in. Come support this small business and eat some nourishing food. read more

Burma Silver Star was excellent! We had the tea leaf salad, garlic noodles, pork bamboo shoot and beef curries, fried shrimp salad, spicy fried fish, samosas, and fadula (ice cream, custard, boba, jellies, and rosewater) for dessert. It was all so delicious! Our favorite was the fried shrimp salad. The restaurant is pretty and comfortable, there was easy parking, and the owner and wait staff were so friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere was also pleasant and we were able to have great conversation at our table. I highly recommend it if you are craving delicious Burmese food! read more

Ok went back Sunday to get my curry chicken with potatoes. This time was perfect tasted better than most Burmese restaurants I go to. Was greeted with the utmost kindness as entering. Will be going back more now that I know the place is picking up. The food is definitely home cooking. The Ambiance was perfect. So relaxing drinking a cup of tea. A must go to place. read more

Our first time here and ordered salmon and tofu curry. We are coming soon to try other food in their menu.

The food was amazing and made us nostalgic for Burma food. Highly recommended for food, ambience and hospitality.

The food: tastes bland, small portion! The service: very slow even though there were serving only two tables! Very disappointing. Not much items on the menu! Not coming back. read more

This new Burmese restaurant opened up a month ago! Got the chance to try it today and ordered the mohinga and the faluda for dessert. I always order mohinga at every Burmese restaurant because it's the best Burmese dish in my opinion! This one was so delicious! It came with the usual egg, lime, cilantro, and some type of fried squash-like bread thing that was really good! I loved everything and will be coming back again for sure! Also met the boss, who was super nice! read more

Stumbled upon by chance and were very pleasantly surprised. Small, unassuming, and reasonable. The food was delicious. It has only been open for 3 weeks and the menu is limited. Chef/owner said that is changing the first of the year. Very authentic. Give it a try. read more

Delicious food here! Great service! Kind people! 100% recommend. Its a beautiful and clean place.

My husband and I stopped here for dinner the other night and we are so glad we did! The food was delicious, very flavorful and fresh. Don't miss out on trying the coconut curry chicken soup!! The staff were helpful and so friendly, they made sure we had everything we needed and we even learned about dishes we have never tried before even though we enjoy going out to Burmese restaurants. We really appreciated the attention to detail in the space as well, it felt cozy and like we were getting to experience some of the culture of Burma. The whole place has a nice family feeling. We definitely recommend Burma Silver Star for your next date night or family outing! Thank you again for making our visit so special. read more

We went to this Burmese restaurant without knowing the essence of Burmese cuisine. Thanks God to the owners and their friendly staff who guided us through their menu. They described every ingredient that was part of the dish they helped us to choose. As a result, the food was delicious and authentic, overall experience was outstanding. We also liked the decor - it represents authentic Burmese art. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who will appreciate really authentic food. read more

Been going to this joint for a while over two decades and it's still really delicious and really good. As my East Coast friends caught it it's emotional. Delicious food great traditions, great recipes great flavors. Great people you can't go wrong. read more

I remember this place when it was still Mahar Yangon! Not sure if it was the same owners as before but regardless, the food has always been amazing. The service was quick and the vibe of the place seemed genuine and authentic. My friend and I split the tea leaf salad and garlic noodles, which were both delicious! The owner came up to us and said next time when it's in stock to try the garlic noodles with duck so we'll definitely be doing that next time! read more

Just got my food when I got home it was not as expected but very disappointed with small trays and the food. Paying $51 at another restaurant you get more for your money not this place. The shrimp salad was burnt couldn't eat it and vegetables very thins barely anything in the plate. Chicken curry with coconut not tasty. My first and last. read more

Me and my boyfriend had the pleasure of trying this restaurant today. Years ago I lived in Parkmerced and drove by here hoping to try one of their dishes, but sadly never got to. Today we arrived 2 minutes before 5pm. We were greeted by the owner's son. He brought us tea and told us to let him know when we were ready. We ordered tea leaf salad as an appetizer. I loved every bite of the salad. The fresh, crunchy, salty, sour, spicy salad was a great starter. Then I ordered the masala salmon with okra and my boyfriend ordered pork curry. Both dishes were very tasty. It tasted like something I would make at home. We loved our food. The owner came to greet us and asked how we hear about them. I told him my story and he said he was happy I came back. He told us to come back soon. I told him we would. Need to try other things on the menu. read more

Took my 80s and 90s years old parents here to try something new. They have tried Thai food before but do not know what Burmese food taste like. I'm happy to report that they like the food. read more

the here at burma silver star was excellent !!! however, if you need suggestions, don't hesitate to ask. they are more than welcome to suggest options to fit your needs or expectations. the service was attentive and efficient. the ambiance was very unassuming: open concept, simple& pretty decor, but very clean. a definite try if you want to celebrate a special night ! read more

The ambience, food, owners, and staff are excellent! They just opened, so the menu was limited at first with a soft menu. However, it has expanded since then. Having spent some time in Myanmar(Burma), the food is authentic, and tasty. The tea leaf salad is the best I've had in the Bay Area, and the Mohinga is like comfort food on a cold day. I will be a regular at the Burma Silver Star. read more

This was the worst birthday experience in the last 5 years. First, the pluses: the ambience is nice and beautiful, the place is spacious and well decorated. However, the food and the service were the worst ever: the food was bland and some of the food tasted like old socks. Something very unpleasant in how it was served, how it looked and how it was presented. The fish curry had bones that immediately pierced my palate - and I was not warned by our waiter. The waiters wear baseball caps and are very casual. They appear to be busy and not caring. We had zero water service and constantly had to check what was going on in the kitchen, to make sure our food was served. I would excuse all this if the food was even minimally tasty but none of the dishes, either vegetarian rice or okra or lamb curry or even beef with potatoes had any taste or texture. My birthday meal was totally ruined. I can't believe that this place was rated highly. Maybe they have different chefs and on Saturday morning they didn't have a good chef. Then avoid visiting this place on Saturday morning at all costs! read more

My wife and I stopped by for dinner recently and were really impressed with the food and service -- one of the best tea leaf salads I've found in the bay area. As other reviewers have noted, portions are on the smaller side, so we took less leftovers home, but both of us left full. We'll be going back soon. read more

Was formerly known as Little Yangon! Food was excellent, decor and music was beautiful and the people were wonderful! Everything I was expecting ! Thank You! read more

Amazing Burmese food! The shrimp salad was delicious! We tried several dishes I have never had before and they were all so good. The service was great too. Everyone was so nice there. I'm definitely going back! read more

Surprised at the high Yelp ratings of this restaurant. I was rather disappointed. Their tea salad lacked the acid and umami that I'm used to at other Burmese places. Their chicken curry was made with pieces of chicken with bone and was a rather small portion and not too flavorful - thin sauce; we ordered the dish that came with paratha, which was probably the best thing we had there. The garlic noodles lacked flavor as well. Service was good, our waiter was very nice, but unfortunately the food was not what I hoped for. read more

This was our second time here, and we loved it just as much as the first time. The food is great and authentic. We had different dishes than the first time and it was all very good. The prices are more reasonable than the more well known Burmese restaurants. Highly recommended!! read more
