The Tea Leaf salad is one of our favorites. Everything we've tried has been good and we'll go back to try more.

Food was incredibly bad. I've had food at quite a few burmese resturants, and this was by far the worst I had. The gravy was sticky and felt weird. The only dish I can recommend is their Mango salad.Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible parking nearby

Nice people. Rainbow salad comes unexpectedly with hot yellow wheat noodles and rice. Too many carbs, not enough vegetables. Posting the menu because they don't have a website and they said Google Maps menu is incorrect.

They fry all their food in the same oil, tofu tastes meaty. Veg food is not really vegetarian. Food quality is average.Edit for the replyI got up and left the entire dish and told the server that food smells bad. You didn't bother to do anything about it and now trying to defend this horrible tofu dish when I posted a bad review. You weren't bothered to see why a person paying 30$ left the entire food on table and leave without taking it out.

Had the special fish noodle soup. One of the best and tasty soups in recent memory. Great prices. All of my lunch bunch enjoyed their entries also with the tea salad being the other standout. Highly

The food was delicious! Came with a larger group celebrating a retirement. Tea leaf salad is great! So is the coconut chicken noodle soup and the spicy tofu! Everything we ate was delicious, but those are the items I remember most.

Great food! I did take out, but it was a pretty little restaurant inside with beautiful large photos of Burma, so pretty. Temples, beaches. Nice vibe. I'm vegetarian and got the palata and dip, tea leaf salad, and fiery tofu with vegetables. It was all delicious and good value. Recommended.Vegetarian options: A lot of options and clearly marked

Came here with a group of friends for dinner on Friday. There wasn't a lot of people although I saw takeout was popular. We were greeted right when we came in and told to pick any table. The store itself is small/narrow, and there was one loud customer whose voice echoed off the walls. I tried not to listen to him but the owners of the restaurant handled his... questionable... topics with class, so kudos to them.We got a leaf salad for appetizer, and it was the best tea leaf salad I have tried in the Bay Area so far. The tea leaf paste was enough to evenly coat the rest of the salad. There was a nice balance of nuts and fiber, compared to Burma Superstar which has way too many nuts and seeds. Although it's tomatoes and lettuce, it was enough for all of us to try, and I think it could be somewhat filling on its own.My friends got the chicken curry noodles, sesame chicken, and I got the Shan spicy stir-fried noodles. My friends liked their dishes. My noodles were sooo addicting. There was a jar of dried chili on the table, but I felt that it was spicy enough for me. I didn't even mix the lemon nor nuts in because I felt like the flavor on its own was already good. The portion was huge, and it lasted me over two meals.If you pay in cash, you get a free falooda dessert. It reminds me of Vietnamese chè. It had rose-flavored milk with jellies and flan. It was sweet but refreshing. The four of us shared one and it was enough.Overall this is a very solid spot for Burmese food. I will definitely come back and eat those delicious noodles again!
