    Not good value for money. Food was not as good as B-Star (too much oil on the Laphet salad, too much sauce on the Spicy Noodles) although the crispy chicken wings were very good. Service was in need of improvement. The waiter was friendly but lacked training, and the food runners + buspersons seemed similarly seemed in need of training to serve at a restaurant charging this much.

    This restaurant is not an authentic Burmese restaurant. The chiken noodle soup should not be cooked with Pasta

    Fabulous food with a creative variety of choices. We have been here many times, and will return again. Perfect location to ball parks and concert venues.

    Lovely overall and great service. However we sat outside and it was very cold, heaters didn’t work well and sadly, a serious problem with unhoused / mental health crowd around restaurant.

    First time at this location, and we had a great experience. Our group included a vegetarian and one with a shrimp allergy, so we tried some different menu items that are our new favorites. Highly recommend the Platha & Dip and Vegetarian Samusa Soup! Cocktails were inventive, service was great and they made sure we made our 7:30 show. We will be back!

    I love this place. The drinks are amazing. I had the tea leaf salad, platha and dip, burmese curry, coconut rice, and garlic noodles. I wish I had more stomach because it was all so good. The atmosphere and decorations are cute too.
