The eggplant we got was also insanely flavorful and well-seasoned, and I would get this again in a heartbeat. The minty jalapeno chicken made me want to try to recreate this dish at home. I love anything with mint in it, and I love anything with jalapenos in it. Put them together, and it's a combo made in heaven. The spring rolls were also very good, but pretty standard, so it's not a must-try, but they're great if you're craving something deep fried and crispy. Omg, the coconut rice. I'd never really had coconut rice like this before despite growing up around Asian food, and I've had dreams about eating this again. We doordashed everything for our most recent meal and even though quality can sometimes suffer when you're having something delivered (or even when you're getting takeout), every dish was so incredible. I can't wait for our next meal from Burma Spice - in fact, I think I might doordash it again for lunch tomorrow!

The food was excellent! It was a tad pricey I would say but perhaps that's because of the location. We tried the tea leaf salad - yum! Maybe could have had a little more lemon juice but was really very good. The samosas were good - reminded me more of the Indian style of samosas rather than the kind I have had at other Burmese places. The beef kebab and dry fried green beans were soooooo good I wanted to lick the serving dishes. Our friends ordered the banana dessert, which I didn't try because they brought out a chocolate pot-de-crème type of thing that's not on the menu but they bring it out for birthdays. PUT that one ON the menu! It was soooooooo delicious! We will be back! Most likely for a "birthday" so we can get that dessert.

We ordered takeout from The Siamese for a larger group…read more The food was okay overall. One downside is that there were no spice level options when ordering, and there was no drink menu available online, which made planning for a group a bit harder. They did include a complimentary soup with the order, which was a nice touch, although it wasn't clear what the soup was. The labels were hard to read, so I ended up opening the containers and relabeling everything for my team. Despite the small inconveniences, we would likely order again since it's close by and convenient for group takeout.

The son of the original owner has now reopened full service back in MP. Their shop sign hadn't been approved yet by the city fathers, so it was a little tricky to find, but when we did, we had a delicious lunch. Here's what we ate: Duck Garlic Noodle 4.5*, $19.99 duck meat with springy egg noodles, tossed in garlic pepper sauce. with melted cheese, bean sprouts, and lots of garlic: A lot like chow mein, but the noodles have a great chew. Lots of delicious duck pieces. The only draw back for me was that the melted cheese was out of place. I don't know if it is traditional or not. Assam Aubergine Malay 5*, $21.99 Grilled Chinese eggplant topped with hot-and-sour tamarind sauce. This was excellent. I think it was grilled because there was a great smoky background note. Crispy Tofu 5* , $17.99 crispy tofu, Shiitake mushrooms, carrots, and scallion sauce. Our favorite of the lunch. Very earthy, but a bit sweet and salty. Flavor combination that's unique and difficult to describe. The kitchen's timing was a little off, so sometimes they were slow and sometimes fast, but they're just getting their sea legs and we weren't in a hurry. All the servers were very pleasant and the owner came out to talk to us. Menlo Park is a good halfway point for me to meet people from the South Bay. We will be back.

It's difficult to find Singaporean food. So we are grateful and reminisced food from that region. Some dishes were authentic while others were modified but overall the food was good. Service was good except we ask for our chicken flavored rice 4 times from the waiter but he was clueless how to get it for us. Maybe he thought the kitchen needs to make it.

I would recommend looking up their instagram just in case this happens to you. The team was kind and patient as it was my first time there. 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.

I wish the bits were crispier and more smashed but it's one of the best you can find on the peninsula. We also got the French fries. Pretty standard frozen fries that were fried well. I would call before you go because they happened to be doing a pop up at fieldworks when we went so we had driven to the wrong spot. Prices also are fair and not expensive! Just expect a long line depending where they are. Try not to look at the dirt and grease caked on their equipment though....
