    Chicken plate
    Brookie B.

    How have I never been here, before?! WOW! I ordered the chicken wrap and it might just be the BEST wrap I have ever had. Ultra thin lavash bread, loaded with tender juicy chicken, pickles, spicy peppers, and so much flavor. My husband got the plate and it looked amazing as well. We will be back soon!

    I came here after a Sunday noon swim workout craving middle eastern food. The place is located in a small strip mall across from Folsom town hall. When I heard they are an Afghani restaurant I was excited because I love the flavor and seasoning of Afghani food. I got the Combo Kabob with lamb and chicken. They were perfectly prepared and tender and complimented well with the fresh salad, humus and side sauces. I also loved the baklava which was small sized but very moist and satisfying. The server was very friendly and explained they are constructing an oven to prepare their bread in the future. I will return soon!

    This has become one of my lunchtime go-tos. Really excellent fresh tasting food made with care. I love their wraps with grilled meat or falafel and their tasty sauces which you can get in mild, medium or spicy. Wraps are made with thin lavash flatbread, which is hard to find around here. The lavash tastes fresh and the wrap is given a nice grilling before it is served. Their Afghani wrap has french fries in it too, which is a great complement to the meat, sauce and veggies.

    Hummus, lamb kabob, grilled chicken, salad and rice

    I got the combo dish to go and ended up being too hungry so decided to eat it there! The grilled chicken was really good and the lamb kabob as well. I asked for the garlic sauce which was to die for and the hot house they make In house is also delish. Everything is fresh and the hummus that comes with the plate is good as well. I didn't care for the bread but overall everything else was really good.

    I serendipitously came across this restaurant by chance. I ordered the combo kabob dinner and it was so delicious!! Definitely a 5 star food offering. The humus was fresh, the rice and salad was perfect. The lamb was super tender and the chicken was juicy. It's my understanding that the restaurant has only been open for a year and was previously a food truck. Service was also great. Regarding, the ambiance, the restaurant is going through some remodeling and I'm looking forward to seeing the result of this transition. Thank you.

    Excellent food and service especially if you are craving authentic food. A must stop when in Folsom!

    Our lunch was absolutely scrumptious! We will definitely be back! The hummus, spicy sauce and the garlic sauce was so flavorful!

    Chicken Gyro plate + lamb kabob plate

    I get gas at the station just across the street where this spot is. After reading Yelp reviews we were not walking, but running there! It was a quiet week day evening; we were quickly helped. Owner did let us know it would be about 15-20 minutes because of the kabob and everything is made to order. We definitely don't mind time for quality! When he brought out the plate, I swear we might've both drooled a bit just from the aroma. The flavors of the meat, rice, hummus, fresh salad + light olive/vinegar oil dressing was just such a lovely taste bud experience! We also tried a few different kinds of baklavas + Turkish Delights to top it all off. This place will be frequented by us!

    Beef 1. Afghani Wrap

    So delicious! Loved the food so much here, the afghan wrap was the best i've had, both chicken and beef are delicious. the plate was also really good, hummus was fresh, rice was yummy, and chicken was cooked to perfection, and lamb had no bad smell like some restaurants do. Service was also bit slow (came with 9 people so had large order) but still the owner was nice and service was very good, he came and asked multiple times if he could get us anything. Store is tucked away from central folsom, near the library. I'm very confident it would be a very popular spot if more people knew about this place!

    Lamb and chicken combo kebab
    Erin M.

    This restaurant had great Google reviews and the Few Yelp reviews were also wonderful even though there were not a lot. We decided to give it a shot because it looked so good. We made the right decision. We were greeted and when we placed our order informed it would take a little bit to grill our items, which we did not mind. Every bite was delicious. The rice by itself was even flavored perfectly. I'm very glad I got the combo because while the lamb of course did not disappoint, the chicken was so tender and delicious also. The sauces, hummus and even the vinaigrette on the salad was delicious. More people need to go give this restaurant a try because they will be back.

    I had the combo over rice, which was absolutely delicious. The chicken was incredibly tender, while the lamb was juicy and full of flavor.

    If you're in Folsom and haven't tried Burma Lite yet, you're seriously missing out…read more This place has become my go-to, and for good reason. The food is consistently amazing and packed with flavor. The tea leaf salad is a must. Super fresh, crunchy, and unlike anything else around here. The basil chili lamb brings the perfect balance of heat and flavor, and the eggplant is cooked perfectly every time. The sesame chicken is crispy and flavorful. It and the coconut rice balanced the spiciness of the lamb and eggplant perfectly. My wife likes to wash it down with a blue moon. I believe the traditional Burmese beer is similar. Everything I've had here has been solid, and you can tell they actually care about the quality of their food. If you're looking for something different from the usual spots in Folsom, definitely give Burma Lite a try. You won't regret it.

    I tried the following: Tea Leaf Salad, Minted Jalapenos Chicken, Burmese Garlic Noodle (with…read moreChicken), and Burmese Indian Rice. The tea salad wasn't as flavorful as one I had elsewhere. I expected more mint flavor from a dish with mint in the name. All in all, no dish was bad, but was not really impressed by anything either. Service was good. Pretty good portions. Not somewhere I'd go out of my way for personally. However, with so many five stars reviews, definitely think you should give Burma Light a try if you're thinking about it!
