I travel to the Burlingame/Redwood City area about once a month so I like to try different places to eat. This was one of my favorites. Service was great and very knowledgeable. My server answered all my questions and made great recommendations based on my feedback. (I like spicy 🔥). I ordered the Vegetarian Samusas, Curry Chicken with coconut rice, and Pork Basil stir fry. It was all awesome & I have plenty for my lunch tomorrow. The parking is a bit tough, but it is on...

This is a go to for me and my family! Everything that we have not disappoint us. It doesn’t matter if we dine in or delivery. This is a few of our favorite dishes. Tea leaf salad, pork and pumpkin stew, salt & pepper prawns, basil spicy fish, any type of curry, and won’t forget about the paratha.

Mingalaba has been a favorite of mine for a long time! I was delighted to go in as a new vegan and learn that a lot of their menu is naturally vegan. Staff was knowledgeable about ingredients and said that everything in the "vegetarian" section that doesn't explicitly mention egg is vegan. Tea leaf salad and most noodle dishes can also be made vegan. So delicious!
