    Walnut Shrimp
    Carine B.

    Takeout order - mostly was excited for the pumpkin curry which was good. The three star rating is because some dishes were great and others were lacking to all around it was a mid-level experience. Pumpkin Curry: 4 stars - dark meat chicken, good portion of protein, nice al al dente pumpkin/squash and overall good flavor. Eggplant Garlic: 5 stars - we got two...mild and medium spicy. Medium spicy is spicy, and mild was good (little kick). The eggplant was mushy but the sauce was a bit tart and a bit different than what we are accustomed to at other restaurants. This dish was very pleasant. Walnut Shrimp: 4 stars - I appreciate this dish was not overly breaded (possibly not at all) Sesame Orange Chicken: 1 star - mostly breading/flour, lacking flavor, tasted a bit like sweet deep fried funnel cake bites Tea Leaf Salad: 3 stars - we couldn't pin point it but something was different about the tea leaf dressing. Overall, this dish was just ok. Coconut Rice: 4 stars - not too sweet, light coconut flavor We forgot to ask if they use MSG but there's definitely a lot of gluten and afterwards I did have some of the MSG "symptoms" so just be weary and remember to ask.

    Crab and cheese puff

    The sesame beef was awful - more breading than meat. Very disappointed. The crab and cheese appetizer is just a rangoon, which tasted good. Inside was okay and clean - a bit dark but felt comfortable otherwise. Service was nice so +1 there. It's an okay spot overall. Maybe I was just unlucky?

    Greetings to all, this would be my first time coming to Yangon, so let's see what happened: Parking is a - Not available in the area after a certain time frame and All the Handicapped spaces are Gone as well. This is a D for me. Inside the restaurant itself was a Cool calming experience, with ambiance. B for me. The service was great and the waitress Reminded All of our orders Verbatim. A for me The food we had : Crispy chicken- was good B for me. Salted pepper fish- was a bit too salty C for me. Sweat & Sour Crispy Chicken- was Not Crispy though it was sweet & sour, a C for me. The mango salad- this was an ok dish, a B for me. Coconut rice- this was a bit sticky for me. A C Mongolian Beef over crispy rice noodles- Not enough of sauce made this dish a bit Dry. A C for me. Garlic noodles- This dish was ok, but tad bit too much salt. The Mango Lassi drinks were good. A B for me. I have pics of most of our dishes, but the rest No. Overall, this restaurant gets a Solid 3 Stars from me with room to grow; meaning to say l will return to try other dishes in their menu.

    Tofu was the most deliciously crispy! Was looking for a dinner place in downtown Burlingame and this place exceeded our expectations. Great vegetarian options. Service was very friendly and I don't think our water ever reached halfway full with the frequent refills!

    Sesame Orange Chicken
    Syd G.

    My business partner and I were in town for just a few hours before catching flight out of SFO. We had so many choices to pick from and badly wanted Chinese, but close to the airport too. So we arrived at 8 and they closed at 9 on a weeknight. It's a quaint little restaurant with about 10-15 tables. There was only one other table occupied when we got there. So it was looking promising. Ehhh that's where I should have left. The one female staff member did not seem to happy that we were there. She was somewhat standoffish and not very friendly. Now I'm a little bit of a Chinese food snob. After a visit to Chinatown I'm very picky. I live in Fort Worth, Texas and there's only two Chinese restaurants in the 8 million population metroplex that I'll eat at. So we both order the sesame orange chicken. My go to is just sesame chicken but they didn't have that. No fried rice option either??!!! So we both chose to split Jasmin rice. The food came out in 15 minutes and looked good. The broccoli had no flavor and was undercooked and warm. Sorry but the sesame chicken was under impressive. I ate it but just wasn't great. It didn't taste bad though. Too much breading and the chicken was very small pieces once you got to it. I gave them 3 instead of 2 because the food wasn't bad. Just very underwhelmed!

    Cashew chicken and rice.

    Door dashed cashew chicken and crab cheese puffs, advertised as buy one get one puffs. Only received one order. Also no rice included with the cashew chicken. Was told rice is separate. Really? That's not what the picture indicates. No satisfaction when I called. Zero Fs given

    Garlic Noodle with BBQ Pork
    Erich L.

    Had a nice casual dinner here. Tried the Burmese dishes and started with the palatha, which is a fried type of bread with a wonderful sweet sauce. The lamb stew with a side of rice was delicious and tender. Definitely try those two. Also had the garlic noodles with pork. That one was ok I probably wouldn't get it again. Service is great they are nice and attentive. Not too expensive either so u would definitely go back.

    Salt and pepper fish 10/10
    Lauren R.

    Came all the way from the east bay to come here and it did not disappoint. The service was phenomenal!! Our waiter was very attentive and helpful when ordering. Salt and pepper fish 10/10 Eggplant 10/10 Chow Fun 10/10 The food was hot and flavorful and the ambience was very nice. Will definitely be coming back.

    Pork Belly Curry
    Granger L.

    I really enjoyed the fatty parts of the pork belly curry. The curry's flavor was pretty good too. The non fatty parts were quite tough though. It was a pretty decent dish overall.

    Fried chicken wings with a light sweet and sour chili glaze.
    Annie L.

    We came here after an airport run. We got here about 8:30 and they close at 9:00, but they welcomed us and assured us there was time to make us anything we would like from the menu. Needless to say, the service and ambiance was warm and welcoming. We chose this place because it was highly rated on Yelp. For a small restaurant, the menu was quite extensive with lots of interesting dishes to choose from. I wish I had been more hungry because everything on the menu seemed so interesting and delicious to order but we only wanted a light meal since we had just come from the airport. We got their signature tea leaf salad which is one of the best ones I have had! The freshly grated cabbages, fermented tea leaves, fried garlic, peanuts, sesame and sunflower seeds and whatever their dressing was, was so refreshing and crunchy. We also had the fried chicken wings which were plump, juicy, and crispy. I also had a mango lassi drink which was delicious and you can taste that the mango was freshly blended . I would love to come here again after the next airport run to try the other things!

    I hadn't been here in a while because it is not close to where I live. I was in the mood for Burmese so I went with a friend. As soon as I walked in I was reminded why this restaurant was so memorable. The food is very tasty. The vegetable dish was packed with spices that enhanced the flavor of the veggies. The garlic noodles were perfectly cooked and also tasty. The ingredients were of good quality which really made the dishes pop. The service was excellent! From the greeter to the servers and all other personnel all had smiles and willing to help in whatever way they could. It was bustling with customers which is always a good sign. The floors and restrooms are kept clean. I could not find any garbage on the floors and they were all clean. Overall, you have to come here to know what a great jem this restaurant is.

    Mango Salad
    Alden C.

    Yangon is so good! I was looking for more restaurants to try out in the Broadway, Burlingame area and I saw all the positive reviews for this family owned restaurant so I had to try it out. I enjoy Burmese/Chinese food a lot so I was excited and I can see why people like this spot. The owners are very friendly and provide great service and the inside is also very comfortable. They have a lunch special menu that they serve from 11:30am - 3pm on weekdays. They consist of a main entreee with a mango salad and rice (if it's not a noodle dish). It costs $15.50 in total for the lunch special which is nice value for the amount of food you get. What my table and I ordered: - Cashew Chicken - Singapore Noodles Starting off with the mango salad, the lunch special variation is smaller than normal, but it was still pretty refreshing and all the ingredients you could tell are fresh. I got myself the Cashew Chicken and it was really good. The cashews add a nice crunch. The zucchini was cooked perfectly and not bitter at all. The chicken was so juicy and moist. It just melted in your mouth. I also opted for the coconut rice for a slight extra charge and it is worth it because that little bit of sweetness of the rice helps balance out the savory flavors. The Singapore Noodles here I also feel they do it better than a lot of places I have been to. It was savory, but some places make them overly salty. I wish there was a little more shrimp although overall was still a tasty dish. I'd come back here again for sure.

Other menu items have been disappointing: * Catfish Chowder: This was fairly average and bore a strange resemblance to pea soup. * Walnut Broccoli Chicken: Another mediocre dish that failed to leave an impression.

Service was minimal. We helped ourselves to the pitcher of water on the table. After looking at the menu on the table, we placed our order by scanning a QR code. Since we're not too hungry. We ordered one appetizer and one noodle dish to share. The special mix salad came pretty quickly. We ordered "less spicy", and it had the perfect amount of heat. All the ingredients tasted fresh and the dish had a bit of everything we wanted to try. I liked the tofu skin the best, and my daughter loved the crunchy cucumber. It would be even better if they included lotus roots as well. It took a little while for the house special beef noodle soup (less spicy) to arrive, but it was totally worth the wait. It came piping hot. The broth was very flavorful, with the right amount of red pepper. It wasn't oily at all. The beef was super tender. I loved the texture of the noodles, and the beef to noodle ratio was not bad. A really solid dish. Would love to come back again to try their other dishes, especially their xiao long bao.
