The Tea Leaf Salad is quite simply the best salad I have ever had!
The samosa soup is quite tasty as is the broccoli. The tea leaf salad is a must!
Sean BOctober 30, 2010Get the rainbow salad (22 ingredients), braised pork belly, chili garlic prawns and plenty of the coconut rice. All the soups are great.
Megan MastersSeptember 19, 2011Brainstorming how this can become my new "spot" even though I don't live anywhere near it... Tealeaf salad was unreal!!!
It's faster to get a to-go order than to wait for a table...unless you go right when they open.
Social News NetworkNovember 27, 2013There is nothing bad on the menu, but if you don't get the tea leaf salad, you don't know what you're missing.
Libby BrennanAugust 28, 2011i highly recommend the tea leaf salad and the burma cooler (ginger beer + beer)
Paul SanwaldJanuary 21, 2018The queue system here is terrible. My wife and I were quoted an hour wait, waited for over 2 hours and never heard from them. We tried to ask about our status but the host was unavailable.
Viator.comJanuary 20, 2012Amazing Burmese food. We can't live without the tea leaf salad. Seriously.
- Isabel SiragusaMay 27, 2016Food is outstanding but you have to fight to get in. Next time I'm trying their other locations. Not worth the struggle.
Burma SuperStarNovember 1, 2011We're kinda in love with the Platha and Dip appetizer if you haven't had in yet ...
Kelsey KotzebueNovember 14, 2016Fiery Chicken isn't too spicy! Absolutely love this spot, I'll be coming back.
Max BMay 29, 2012Be prepared to wait 60-90 minutes for a table. As such, pace your hunger, otherwise you won't enjoy the meal

Kristen AdamMarch 5, 2011Samusa soup, tea leaf salad, sesame beef, coconut rice, sangria. Sooooo delicious!!!
Rachel PerlinApril 29, 2013This place is either the best place on Earth or it is in heaven and were not really mortals.
- Joohee MuromcewMay 20, 2010Could have eaten three orders of the Coconut Rice alone for dinner. Shrimp with chiles and Tofu Tower delicious!
My last meal on earth will hopefully include a tea leaf salad, samosa soup, superstar vegetarian noodles and lots of sangria and coconut rice.
Joe ShockmanDecember 5, 2009Walk by on a Friday night and put your name on the list, find a date and get him or her there before your name is called an hour later.
