Came here while I was in the area for an event and was pleasantly surprised. I haven't had much Burmese food before, so it was really interesting to try something different. I liked how they offer a wide variety of ingredients and flavors, with some unique twists on familiar dishes. The ordering process is quick and efficient, kind of like Chipotle or CAVA but with a Burmese-inspired menu, so it's a great option if you're looking for a fast meal without sacrificing variety. Everything moved smoothly, and the food came out quickly. The teriyaki chicken was definitely my favorite. It was flavorful, tender, and paired well with the rest of the bowl. The seasoning was pretty bold, and by the end of the meal it left my mouth feeling a little dry, but that was mostly because the flavors were so rich and concentrated. It was still really enjoyable, and I'd happily order it again. I'd definitely recommend this spot if you're looking to grab a quick, tasty meal in the area and want to try something a little different from the usual options.

I came here around their grand opening and honestly loved the food and how clean the place is. The ordering style is like Panda Express, where you can choose your entree and sides, but this place feels way healthier. The service is quick, and the staff is very nice. My favorite was the house special salad. It was so tasty, flavorful, fresh, and super refreshing. I also tried the Burmese noodles, string beans with beef, and basil chili beef. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and tender. The only thing I didn't really like was that the food was a little too sweet. I liked their milk tea, mango lassi, and honey lemon tea they were all tasty. The mango salad was okay. You could taste the fried onions more than the mango, but overall it was still delicious.

I came here around the time of their grand opening and i'm so excited that I tried this place! The food style feels like Panda Express where you can choose your entree + sides but there are way more options and the food feels a lot healthier. The service is quick so you can stop by if you don't have much time to pick up food too. There's plenty of seating inside as well and it is really clean. My favorite dish was the lychee salad. It is not something i would've ordered based on the name but my friend that came with me really wanted to try it. And surprisingly it is REALLY GOOD. I would come back just for that salad again. Of course you can't go wrong with the tea leaf salad. Definitely come here when you want a quick and healthy meal.

4.5 stars. I've never really had Burmese food, but came here for an event and everything was very tasty. I really liked their stir fried noodles and their basil beef stir fry was also really tasty. All the workers were also really nice and the interior was very clean. My visit here was a great experience and I'd love to go back.

Had a great time trying TleafGreen which is kind of like a Burmese style Panda Express. We ended up ordering on Uber Eats and picking up the food. The ambiance here is very nice and thankfully the order was ready when we got there. For the food we tried: * Sesame chicken - this is crispy pieces of chicken that was on the sweeter side. We got a BOGO deal on this one which was very nice * 3 food plate - we got this 1/2 with pineapple fried rice and 1/2 Burmese noodles. The noodles were really yummy and flavorful while the fried rice was quite lackluster. For our sides we got the mint jalapeño chicken (so delicious and flavorful), black pepper chicken (tender and yummy) & Burmese fried chicken (sweet, crispy & came with chunks of pineapple)! Overall the food was great and the portions were very nice. Would definitely recommend to give this place a shot.

Haven't tried Burmese food before? You're in luck because they offer samples! Head past the kiosks and sample a few items before placing your order. I sampled the sesame chicken, fried chicken, basil beef, Burmese shrimp and a few others. Ultimately I landed on ordering the "triple plate" with half Burmese noodle and half pineapple fried rice. The kiosk is great and gives you option to choose two carbs! For the proteins I ordered sesame chicken, Burmese chicken. I opted for the triple plate because I also wanted a side of veggies (they call it super broccoli carrot) . We also ordered the tea leaf salad. The salad is fresh and crisp which really complimented our meal. It was a great way of cutting through other flavors. The food overall was flavorful without being overly salty. The Burmese shrimp was snappy and the sesame chicken was very well sauced without getting soggy. Once your order is ready, they call out your order number. The voice system kind of sounds like the DMV which I thought was funny

I don't usually update a review so soon, but I have to say that Tleaf Green is really bringing me up to a full four-star review! They took down the "soft opening" sign and are really in business. Problems I noticed when I first went (inconsistent temperatures of the items I ordered) have been fixed. Everything came out at the same temperature. I was also really pleased that they added a veggie side option to their two-item combo. I have been back a few times, trying different dishes, and really enjoyed everything I tried. The spicier options are just spicy enough. My partner has loved the salads he has tried. They added an option to add tofu to salads, so you can add extra vegan protein if you choose! They make it easy to enjoy a quick, healthy meal.

We've been to plenty of Burmese places and wanted to try this one that opened up about a year ago! On the food app Too Good to Go, we consistently see that this place lists food but is bought instantly, which must mean this place is great and a must try! Our order consisted of a tea leaf salad, pepper chicken, shwegyi, and two of the teas. As we have tried multiple tea leaf salads, we wanted to see how this one did it and see if it's a good value. Differences from some other places are that they use a mix of greens, including cabbage, whereas some other places may only use lettuce. Another thing of note is the dressing gives you quite a bit of tea leaves and the leaves themselves are large/ not completely pulverized. Depending on your preferences, this could be good or bad. It's good because your salad will have heterogeneity, each bite having some larger leaves which adds a nice salty pocket to munch on. But if you're looking for consistency and evenness of the coating, you might not like this dressing. Additionally, the dressing seemed to only be the fermented tea leaves themselves. Some other places add some oil to the mix in order to give a silkier mouth feeling and I think I prefer that. This dressing, while having the right flavor profile, left my mouth a little dry. For $13, I give this a solid thumbs up. Not our favorite place with tea leaf salad but solid enough close by. I inquired whether you can just buy the dressing or the crunchy bits and was informed yes, for around $4 each cup, you can have your own tea leaf salad kit. It's enough to feed 2 meals as a side dish and with a little oil, I think would be fantastic and a great price. The pepper chicken was great! It was chicken breast, nicely velveted, and well seasoned. I like how this place actually gives you a lot of chicken rather than a lot of onions, peppers, celery, and carrots. When I buy a chicken dish, it better be chicken forward and not just filler. This place delivered on that! The medium side also was enough for 4 meals as a side dish. Great value. As part of their July promo, you can get one appetizer free with the purchase of $15. We have never heard of shwegyi before but was informed that this was an option as part of the promo. Shwegyi is a semolina and coconut based dessert. If you like the mouth feeling of semolina, you'll love this. Not extremely sweet but nice and dense. As for their milk tea, for $4, this is a very solid red/CTC black tea! Nicely sweetened with condensed and evaporated milk. The service people here are very friendly and in high spirits still so that's a good sign. Since this place used to be a Blaze Pizza, the interior has plenty of seating. It also has a lot of soft lighting making it cozy. Ordering to recovering our food was around 15 minutes total during a dinner rush. It seems like they have quite a bit of online/to go orders and for good reason. Overall, solid place that I'd be willing to come back to. Good food, great prices, friendly staff, and plenty of clean interior seating. 4.5 stars

I've been meaning to write a review for this new spot in the Almaden Plaza and near Blossom Hill Rd. Fun fact: the owners own Burma Bay Cafe in Fremont in case you have been there. A few weeks ago, I attended their grand opening celebration and had the chance to try several of their delicious dishes. I also received a cute tote bag and a rose, which was a nice touch. The food was fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. Their tea leaf salad is massive, and they don't skimp on the tea leaf dressing. I'm especially a fan of the beef with string beans and the walnut shrimp. I've already gone back a few times and still have more menu items I want to try. One thing I noticed during the grand opening was that there were no signs labeling the food items. I suggested to a few staff members that signs would be helpful so they wouldn't have to keep repeating the same information to guests. When I returned on my second visit, I noticed signs had been added, so it seems my suggestion may have been passed along. If you're thinking about what to drink, I would suggest their Burmese Milk Tea. Can't wait to go back again.

Ordered dinner via DoorDash on a Saturday evening. A friend highly recommended this restaurant, so I was eager to try it. I ordered the Burmese Chicken Salad and was not disappointed. The chicken had a nice flavor and there was a ton of it! The veggies were fresh and plentiful. My one tiny complaint is the dressing was too spicy, but I mitigated that by dipping each bite in to just a little bit of it. Looking forward to trying their other dishes.

Burmese cuisine is my favorite ethnic cuisine and in fact, it was Burmese cuisine that got me started on Yelp. For my 1000th review, I want to say, I love TleafGreen and cannot wait to keep coming back for more and more. I first saw the coming soon sign many weeks ago and have been waiting eagerly for it. Once I found out it opened, I drove straight there and my jaw dropped when I walked in. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful and the colors just pop and feel comfortable in there. Trust me, eat inside and you'll feel it too. TleafGreen is trying to be like the Panda Express of Burmese cuisine but better, fresher and more flavor. I went all out on my 1st visit and ordered pineapple fried rice with Burmese shrimp, mango chicken, platha, noodle salad and Burmese milk tea. Everything had so much flavor and definitely is a good break from eating normal salads and sandwiches during the week. The dressing for the noodle salad is quite spicy so, I'll ask for a non-spicy dressing next time. It reminds me of a simpler rainbow salad which is a signature salad at several Bay Area Burmese restaurants. In fact, the owners also own Burma Bay Cafe in Fremont and Burma Burma in Dublin. They also plan to open another TleafGreen location in Mountain View later on. When it comes to Burmese cuisine, they have it locked down already. The Burmese shrimp and mango chicken gave me that same feeling when I first tried Burmese food over 20 years ago. It was heavenly and because of Burmese cuisine, I joined Yelp just to write reviews about Burmese food and my favorite spots. The ordering process is quite easy, as you can order on the kiosk tablets or online and I think you can order by pointing as well. The Burmese milk tea is good but it is strong. The pricing is so good and I cannot wait to take many people here to try it out. I can already feel that they will become a hot place and possibly go national one day. It is a very delicious and great experience. Thank you TleafGreen!

Great food!! My favorite was the tea salad....of course. Everything was fresh and had the little crunchy country bits inside that make it unique from other salads. The combination plate was good as well. I especially liked the Mint and jalapeño chicken. It was a different dish that I never had. The kabocha/tofu dish. Was OK. I felt it lacked seasoning and was fairly bland. Inside was very clean and brightly lit. It had a good overall vibe. I would definitely come here again. The prices are very reasonable.

Today is TleafGreen's soft opening. I have been looking forward to coming here as they were getting ready to open their business. They are located in the Almaden Plaza next to Boudin SF. The spot they are in used to be Blaze Pizza. Their website states that they offer Burmese-inspired bowls made with fresh produce and house-made dressings--ready for dine-in, pickup, delivery, and catering. I decided to have lunch here today. Upon entering the restaurant I was warmly greeted. Since it's there first day, they were running a bit late. An employee told me they would be ready at 11:30am. She let me take pictures of their menu and of the inside. It's really lovely and bright inside. I loved what they did with the inside remodeling. When I returned at 11:30am, I was helped by an employee named Song. She was polite and excited for their soft opening. She explained how to order from the kiosks at the front and then you go to the counter and watch them build it. You can also customize you order at that point. I ordered the Burmese chicken salad for dine in and I ordered the golden mango salad to take home. Also ordered a build your on single plate. I chose Burmese noodles, pineapple fried rice and Burmese shrimp and two samosas. The Burmese chicken salad was so flavorful with their house made dressing. The combination of all the ingredients were so delicious. The dressing has a little quick of heat, which I loved. The Burmese shrimp was my favorite. The sauce on the shrimp is savory and goes perfectly with the Burmese noodles. The pineapple fried rice was also very good. Everything was so fresh. The samosas were also delicious. Perfectly crispy and the filling was so good. I also liked the dipping sauce it came with. The portion sizes are good. They are generous with their proteins. All the ingredients were fresh. They freshly chop all of their produce and cook the other items freshly daily. They also offer Halal, gluten free and vegan bowls/salads and dishes. I spoke with the manager, Brad. He is really friendly. I wish him and the owners all the success with their restaurant. It's so nice to have this new restaurant in Almaden plaza. I will definitely be back, with my husband, for dinner. Thank you Brad, Song and team for your excellent hospitality and customer service.
