Stopped by for the first time tonight for dinner…read more The service was excellent and my server Stefania was so kind, explaining some of the dishes checking in regularly. - Burma Breeze: adult drink was good - Tea leaf salad: Excellent and the ingredients were so fresh (nuts, vegetables, chips, etc.) - Burma chicken curry: It was okay, but not my preference. It was lighter curry than I'm used to and lacked flavor imo - Black Pepper Shrimp: Delicious, but a little oily - Coconut rice: Good but the flavor didn't mix with the dishes imo. Next time I'll do white/brown rice. I hope to come back and try other dishes there!

I am not the type to leave reviews ever but had to mention this…read more I run a catering / event company and came to restaurant to see if I can get something going. Spoke to Michael who was the most passive aggressive rude manager I've ever met. Told me I don't have a company, he doesn't want to do business and that the owners are not interested. Also he runs the restaurant? Tried to get owners phone number but was denied. So hope this reaches them. The food is great which is why I tried to build a business connection, but genuinely am shocked by the manager. I've worked in this industry for years never met someone like this

My group recently had a wonderful dinner at Burma Bay Cafe!…read more We arrived around around 7 PM on a Sunday evening and they were slammed with several large parties. The staff were SO nice and offered to set up a table for us in their back room. They were so kind and accomodating, which we were grateful for because we were starving and the food looked delicious! We ordered a tea leaf salad, Burmese shrimp and beef, and the Nan Gyi Thoke noodles. The food arrived soon after ordering and we were treated to a proper Burmese feast! I loved the crunchy textures of the tea leaf salad, and the shrimp and beef were deliciously spicy. The noodles were also great - the boiled egg was cooked perfectly. The portion size was generous - this was plenty of food for four people! Most imporantly, service was outstanding! Thank you for making our group feel welcomed on an insanely busy evening. :)

Came to Burma Bay Cafe for dinner with friends and had a great meal!…read more Located off Warm Spring Blvd, Burma Bay Cafe took over the old Ho Chow building. The inside has tons of seating available and bright natural lighting. We came on a weeknight during their happy hour (!!), which is 20% off appetizers every week night between 3-6pm. Our party of three ordered mainly apps, and only deviated off that section to try their tea leaf salad :P Fried tofu - crisp and light Coconut chicken with palatha - sweeter curry, loved the flakiness and thicc-ness of the paratha Lamb curry with palatha - hearty curry sauce Salt and pepper chicken - dino nugget-esque with a nice crunch and perfect seasoning and didn't actually need the dipping sauce it comes with. Note: the dipping sauce does contain fish Chicken lettuce cups - fine taste, no notes Veg samosas - fine also, basic Tea leaf salad - ordered for the health and textural crunch. So delicious Service was good. Our waitress was very informative in each dish and also quite attentive with refiling waters. Overall, great meal and would love to return to try their mains.

I finally tried Must be Thai after years of hearing great things about it on a Sunday evening. We…read moregot here around 6pm and there was a pretty long wait but we got seated outdoors after about 40 minutes. The outdoor seating is just a few tables and chairs and the indoor seating definitely looks a bit cuter and more decorated but we were starving and happy to take the first table available. Service was super kind and even though we were the only party seated outdoors we never felt forgotten and our water stayed filled throughout the dinner. We got the Pok Pok Phu papaya salad which comes with little marinated crabs and was nice and refreshing and a just a hint of spice, the Tom yum rice which was my favorite and a standout dish - super flavorful, fragrant and generous amounts of seafood, the green curry with chicken which was a comforting classic, and the southern pad thai which was also solid and tasty. Everything was flavorful, generous in portion size and very enjoyable - we did ask for mild spice and would probably go for medium next time since I did want to enjoy some more heat with the dishes! Overall I can see why Must be Thai is a popular favorite for Thai food and I'll definitely be back more often :)

surprisingly packed on a weekday lunch…read more service was kinda faster than I expected pad thai - 8/10 honestly better than I remembered from before pad see ew - 6/10 meat was a lillll dry & imo had too much veggies but I just don't rly like veggies LOL

Found this place on DoorDash and they happened to have a great deal going on. 50% off $45 or more,…read moreso we decided to give them a try. We ordered: - Burmese Garlic Noodle (plain) - Basil Lemongrass Chicken - Burmese Style Red Curries Chicken - Coconut Rice The garlic noodles were good, although not my personal favorite out of everything we ordered. The basil lemongrass chicken was very flavorful and probably one of our favorite dishes of the meal. The Burmese style red curry chicken was also really good with a rich curry flavor. What surprisingly stood out to all of us though was the coconut rice. Everyone really enjoyed it and it paired perfectly with the curry dish. The portions were generous too. The whole meal was very filling and we actually had enough leftovers for two of us to have lunch the next day. The pickup process threw me off a little at first because I didn't realize this was one of those shared kitchen locations with multiple restaurants operating out of the same spot. But the staff there were extremely nice. I arrived a little before my pickup time and they checked on my order right away and let me know it should be ready in about 10 minutes. I waited in the car and one of the workers was kind enough to bring the food out to me. Overall, really solid experience with tasty food, generous portions, and friendly service. We will definitely order from here again.

Accidentally ordered from this place instead of a different Burmese restaurant with a similar name…read more The menus are similar, but the quality of the food is not. The chicken curry was greasy and chunky, and the sesame beef had the texture of jerky that's been left out in the sun for a week. I guess the coconut rice was alright. I looked them up and it's one of those ghost kitchens that operates as a dozen other "restaurants" on the apps, all of them mid. Definitely make sure to check the name of the restaurant before I order next time lol.

We decided to dine in this time, and they weren't busy at all on a Friday (early) evening. We were seated at a comfortable booth across from the colorful wall mural. I've tried a good portion of the menu at this point and enjoy the Sesame Chicken, Palata with Chicken, and Mango Shrimp. My partner is obsessed with the Burmese Chow Mein and Black Pepper Chicken. This time, I ordered the Pineapple Fried Rice with shrimp, which was pretty basic but expectedly tasty and filling. Service was quick and friendly! Burma Spice will continue to be one of our go-to's.

Burma Spice hosted our daughter's high school graduation luncheon on May 23rd and we couldn't have been happier! We had about 30 guests in a separate area in the back of the restaurant. Kham and Raymond were so nice and helpful in planning the menu for our gathering. Everything was served family style. We ordered - Tea Leaf Salad- the perfect ratio of fermented tea leaves and ingrediants. - Samosas- light, crispy, and so flavorful - Nan Gyi Thoke- the noodles were perfectly cooked, not mushy, and the curry was creamy and delightful. - Basil Lemongrass Chicken- fresh basil, and lemongrass really made this dish a popular topic. - Pumpkin Veggie- Nice ratio of pumpkin and other veggies, very hearty. - Kebat Lamb- savory, packed full of rich spices, the onions add so much texture and flavor as well. - Jasmine Rice Plus plenty of yummy tropical cocktails for the adults. They set up a little table for the cake, and some graduation items that we brought. They really went out of their way to make our celebration comfortable. Everything was in generous portions, fresh and expertly prepared. My guests raved about the food and service. Some of my guests had never tried Burmese food before and now in their meal rotation. We didn't realize that we had stretched into their rest period between lunch and dinner because they were so gracious about not rushing us. I highly recommend Burma Spice in Redwood City for any meal or occasion. The restaurant is such a gem in our neighborhood and the service is friendly.

Layang Layang is my favorite spot for Singaporean/Malaysian food…read more I used to be a frequenter at their Cupertino location. Same delicious food at the Milpitas location. I prayed for years that they'd reopen in Cupertino again. The Bay Area needs more Singaporean/Malaysia food!! Some of the must try dishes here are: * Mee goreng: spicy street noodles * Kari Mee: noodles in a spicy coconut curry broth with chunks of chicken and potato * Chicken Satay: Grilled chicken skewers served with a peanut sauce * Roti Canai: crispy flatbread served with a curry sauce * Mee Siam: Stir fried rice noodles * Nasi Goreng: Malaysian fried rice * Ice Kachang: Shaved ice topped with rose syrup, and condensed milk. Under the glorious ice, you'll find red bean, grass jelly, corn, peanuts & agar agar making for an unexpectedly delicious dessert (This was my favorite dessert growing up)

We came for lunch on a weekday with a reservation - I'd highly recommend making this ahead of time, otherwise, only bar seating was available. Tea leaf salad (4/5) - I liked the taste of this one but do wish there were a few more greens. But it's fresh, nutty, and savory. Roti platah (5/5) - I love love love roti, and this was fluffy, buttery, and delicious. Something we didn't know, however, was the dip (we got truffle) was $7 extra! Coconut chicken curry (4/5) - this was good, but definitely on the heavy side when it comes to curries. Mango chicken (5/5) - a must try, and the star of the show for me. This dish was on the sweeter side, but tasted SO good and tropical when paired with the coconut rice (a MUST try). I'd be back for the mango chicken and the coconut rice for sure! Entree potions are big so I'd recommend sharing. They also have a great lunch menu ($29) option as well!

Consistently Great Food and Ambiance in Menlo Park…read more I can't believe I haven't written a review sooner--we have been here several times now for both small family dinners and larger group gatherings, and it is a consistent favorite of ours. While the portion sizes are on the smaller side for the price point, the overall dining experience makes it well worth it on occasion. The restaurant has a beautiful, upscale yet bright and reasonably kid-friendly indoor ambiance. Booking online is seamless, and parking is incredibly easy right underground in the Springline lot. The cocktails are good, and you absolutely cannot go wrong with the tea leaf salad, the roti pratha with coconut chicken curry, and the garlic chili prawns. The garlic noodles and fried rice can be a bit hit-or-miss; we have had visits where they are packed with flavor, have a perfect texture, and are a massive hit with the kids, but other times they have turned up a bit bland or with mushy noodles. The manager and staff are friendly and welcoming, and the manager has gone out of their way to accommodate our walk-in group on at least two occasions. My biggest tip is to avoid booking the outdoor seating. It consists of only one or two tables situated right on El Camino Real, making it way too noisy to enjoy your meal. Stick to the gorgeous indoor dining room or bar seating for a solid meal.

We've had more authentic Burmese cuisine in SF but this is fine for Palo Alto. Service was good and attentive.

Cocktail drinks are pretty good but just know that some drinks are small for the price. The best drink is the coconut one with coconut rum.

If I could give 0 stars, I would…read more I ordered takeout consisting of garlic noodles with pork substituted for chicken (and paid almost $3 extra for the substitution), basil chili chicken, and mango chicken. Unfortunately, there were problems with every dish: 1. Extremely small portions: The basil chicken and mango chicken portions were ridiculously small. Around 80% of the container was just onions, and the containers were only about 70% full. For the price, this is unacceptable. 2. Almost no chicken in the garlic noodles: The garlic noodles had literally only two tiny pieces of chicken. I cannot believe I paid almost $3 extra to substitute pork with chicken and received basically no chicken at all. 3. Unbelievably salty: Both the garlic noodles and basil chicken were so salty that they were inedible. I had to rinse them with water five times, and then re-cook them myself just to make them edible. I've never had to do this with takeout before. The food wasn't just disappointing in terms of flavor and portion size--the biggest issue is that it feels like the restaurant is being extremely stingy while still charging fairly high prices. Poor portions, excessive salt, and very little meat. Definitely not worth the price, and I would not order from here again.

Mohinga fish soup: the national dish of Myanmar. The base is fish and there are big chunks of soft onions and small chunks of fish inside. It tastes like crab soup with a subtle spice aftertaste and a very, small fermented taste. Tea leaf salad: The small green Thai chilis are SO hot and made me cough instantly. A decent tea leaf salad with nice crunchy bits through you can find it better at other places. Indian mee goreng: Too sweet for our taste and less soy sauce than we like. It tasted like the primary sauce ingredient was ketchup. Plenty of large shrimps and nice pieces of potato and bell peppers. Hainam chicken combo: yellow color chicken and rice. The sauces this came with were great. The bones were a bit sloppily cut but it still tasted good. Roti pratha: This used to be my lunch often in Singapore, so nostalgic! Roti with coconut curry for dipping. Came super super hot and fresh.
