Growing up eating Burmese food at home, I rarely go out for it because nothing ever compares to…read morehomemade. That's why I was pleasantly surprised by Burma Town. The flavors were authentic and flavorful without being overly Americanized. The pork curry was absolutely delicious and is definitely a must-order. I also got the tea leaf salad and immediately wished I had ordered the large because you can never have enough tea leaf salad. The palata was a great starter -- flaky, warm, and exactly what you'd want. The miso black cod was another standout. The broth it was simmered in was incredibly flavorful, and the fish was perfectly cooked. The garlic noodles were also done really well with the right noodles and great flavor -- honestly better than some places known specifically for garlic noodles. And of course, the coconut rice is always worth ordering. We skipped dessert since nothing really stood out, but I would love to see them add more traditional Burmese desserts like faluda in the future. Parking wasn't too difficult, especially if you circle around the back neighborhood area. The wait was reasonable, the outdoor patio seating was nice, and the service was attentive throughout the meal. Definitely a spot I'd come back to when craving Burmese food.

I've had the tea leaf salad and BBQ pork garlic noodles. I sadly can no longer eat red meat but the BBQ pork was delicious and the garlic noodles were not overly greasy. I forgot to also include that the tea leaf salad here is one of the best I've had! My coworker that I brought there last year had never had Burmese food and I had her try the Tea Leaf Salad (my personal favourite) and she loved it and insisted that was the best salad she's ever had. We're from the South so our palette is different, lol. This place also has a lot of fusion dishes and is very friendly to vegans and vegetarians. This is very important for me due to dietary restrictions. The restaurant was very clean, the decoration was cute and the owner's daughter was incredibly kind. She told us that her mother's recipes were used for the restaurant. I'll be bringing my partner and other friends here when we have time. The only issue is the parking. Parking is insanely frustrating in this area but this place is worth it. Just carpool together and go! The owner's daughter also has a really good memory since we couldn't come back for several months and she still remembered us and our request for ube cheesecake, lol. Edit: Oops, I meant original owner's daughter. I'm not sure if she's the owner now or her mom. Either way, the food is great and service is always kind. It feels especially kind when owners of the business are passionate about their food and encourage their customers! I found the pictures and uploaded them (oops, it was from 2024 not last year too).

Oh yeah! This is…read morethe good stuff! Was going camping at the beach a few weeks ago and didn't want to smoke the ribs in the cold/wet. I had been hearing about Red Eye locally and thought I would give them a try. I ordered in advance - I had heard they sell out fast if you don't put in an advance order. Pick up took longer than seemed reasonable for an advance to go order, but zero complaints about the quality of the food! I got two racks of pork ribs and they were spectacular. The other stuff e saw them putting out looked really good too. I normally smoke my own meats, but it is great to have someone local that does such a good job. Now I have a place I can go to when I don't have time to do it myself. Everyone who tried them loved them- including a friend who was a chef in New Orleans. I think Red Eye are the best thing going around here for real BBQ (by a good measure). If you haven't tried them yet, get over there! You are in for a real treat!

While the food that I ordered (or at least got of what was available) was objectively delicious…read moreand seasoned wonderfully, my experience of ordering and waiting was dissapointing and overall ruined my lunch. *PS I ordered under the name Zed if you see this review. There was already quite a line by the time I came in around 12:40 and was eager to try everything after reading the amazing reviews. I decided to order all the cuts except for short rib (they were sold out) and the chicken. As I am placing my order, I see some miscommunication between the chef (Bob I believe) and the person who took my order, something about not following the inventory count of cuts available, potentially leading to over-orders. I prayed there would still be enough for what I ordered and stayed optimistic. About 10 minutes after ordering, I was told that the beef cheeks were sold out. I was okay with that as they refunded me immediately. 15 minutes later and I'm told that the spareribs are also sold out. At this point the only things available were the pork belly and jalapeno cheddar sausage. I still wanted to try the two that were still available, but was dissapointed in having to experience this. As for the food itself, to say the least it was very good. The pork belly was perfectly salted and simply melted in my mouth. The sausage was juicy, had a great snap to it, and had a perfect ratio of cheese to sausage. The jalapeno is subtle and doesn't punch you with spice, but the subtle hint of spice with each bite was addicting. The stand out for me would be their pickles. Korean pear, fresno chili, cucumber, and red onions made up the pickle mix. I loved the sweet n sour of the pear and couldn't stop eating it. The cornbread was also nice and fluffy. Would I come back to try this? 100%. Just from the pork belly and sausage, I can't wait to try the short rib/cheek/spareribs. I would recommend everyone who wants to try Red Eye to either PRE-ORDER or come early before they open, as I came ~40 minutes after opening and most of the meats were sold out. I wish there was a clearer tracking system of how many cuts were left, as placing an order only to be told AFTER ordering that stuff was already sold out is extremely frustrating. Maybe having 1 more person would also help as well, as I waited close to 30 minutes for my order. I will update this review after another attempt, as this could have simply been an off day.

The menu: - kaw Trey saht chrouk beh Choun (braised fish and pork belly) -stuffed chicken wings kreung ( lemongrass paste ) -stir fry clams -haal Leah (Cambodian sun dried clams ) -raw bloody clams with prohoak ( fermented fish dip) -steamed rice I never had raw bloody clams before, it was a nice touch with the Cambodian prohoak sauce . The braised fish and pork belly was delicious , sweet/ salty and savory . With the crunchy cucumbers was the family favorite dish. Of course the stuffed wings continues to be our family must order when we have a chance .

I was shocked to read about the long waitlist years ago and I never bother to put my name on it…read more Not only I have to wait for years but I also have to cook the noodles myself - thanks but no thanks - especially I spent way too much money on kickstarter for a series of failed projects/scams in the past. But my sister had enough faith in him that she put her name down in the waitlist a couple years ago. A few days before Valentine's day in 2026, my sister got the email asking her to confirm her order quantities and to pick up on Valentine's day. Apparently, my sister completely forgot her order. lol! This guy have more integrity than kickstarter projects and to keep his promise and to fulfill the orders!!! It's my first time having sweet water noodles. I have never visited Cheng Du in China (it's on my bucket list) so I cannot tell how authentic this really is. As a noodle dish, I really love it. I would buy the sauce itself and toss with any other noodles. (Business opportunity there!) The instruction to cook the noodles is super clear and it's a very simple and easy dish to make. If you can boil water in a pot, you can make the noodles based on the instruction with this noodles kit. The rice crispy gave an excellent crunch. (Now I can see why Paik Jong Won added the uncooked instant noodles crumbs from the package to a bowl of instant noodles). The noodles texture is lovely, it has a chewy (or the Taiwanese/Chinese known as "QQ") bite to it. The portion is quite generous too - it's one of those satisfying portions :) I don't think I want to wait for 2 years for this again. But when he opens the store or start selling the sauce, I will be there for sure!!

I ordered the loaded fries with a patty and it was delicious. The burger patty was seasoned and juicy. The fries were crispy similar to In n Out fries. With the sauce they used for the fries, I feel like I got a burger and then some. For the price, that will probably be my go to order since it is more filling than one burger. Overall, good food and I will try again at the original location.

LaVier is looking for a permanent space and may eventually move out, but, at least for now, we can get a fine meal from them. I ordered the flank steak. My daughter ordered the fettucine with shrimp. We were both very pleased with our dishes. The flank steak came with a very well made chimichurri sauce, a small piece of plantain, black beans and a scoop of rice. My daughter commented (on both dishes) that she liked the presentation. I did too. Good food. Good service. Friendly, relaxed vibe. Also, this was first time I didn't have to wait to get a table at LaVier. Bonus.
