Delicious food. We had mango chicken and basil dry chili beef. It was so fast. Wonderful service. Never an empty drink. Great ambiance. Will definitely come back!

Halal & Delicious food . Good restaurant and service was also pleasant. Their special hot sauce is good enough to buy and bring it home.

This is definitely a hidden gem in Folsom. I've never had Burmese food before and was pleasantly surprised at how tasty the dishes were. Prices and portion sizes are good. The food is also super fresh and flavorful. So I'll be going here again for sure.

Everything we ordered was delicious. The server was so nice. Mango chicken is spicy and sweet at the same time. Nya ngoc noodles have a lot of flavor but are not overpowering. I like the noodles, i wonder if they make their own noodles. Tea leaf salad is also highly recommended. A lot of gluten and vegan choices. We will definitely come back here.

I had been to this restaurant/store before when it was occupied by Von's chicken, so I know the place would be decent in terms of cleanliness. The waiter was friendly and attentive, and our water got refilled fairly quickly. Quick glance at the menu, I could tell that the price point is on the higher end relative to other asian cuisines, but that was to be expected in this day and age with everything increasing by about 25%-50%. What I was not expecting was the serving size of the dishes. I ordered garlic noodles, chicken curry and black pepper beef. I thought the garlic noodle, looked rather simple, but tasted the best; couldn't taste much garlic flavor, but it was definitely well seasoned. The chicken was bland as if there's no seasoning before being cooked with the curry, and the curry itself tasted normal. The black pepper beef is the same story. The beef itself had no flavor; just a bland piece of meat with black pepper sauce all over it. The dishes came at a surprisingly fast pace...faster than fast food restaurants. However, the drawback was that everything came lukewarm at best, to the point where I couldn't even tell whether the garlic noodle was supposed to be served hot/cold. For the price and quality of food served, I think there's better options.

We're vegetarian and we were excited to see a Burmese restaurant in Folsom. The salt and pepper tofu was crispy and flavorful, the garlic noodles tasted great, the garlic string beans were incredible - we would order all of it again. The coconut rice was soft and tasted sweet like coconut. They sat us immediately and the service was very prompt and friendly. Our food was made fresh and quick which is incredible for when you're ready to eat. We can't wait to come back.

Nice burmese joint in Folsom. Service was very quick, and the food was fresh and yummy.We ordered garlic noodles (just ok ), honey shrmp ( great)basil and chili swai ( great), salt and pepper chicken ( great, loved the dipping sauce), beef kebat (great), indian rice(just ok) and fried banana with icecream(not that great).We came for lunch today and ordered a few lunch specials. It came with tea leaf salad and jasmine rice.We chose the items basil and chili for swai and chickena( good), garlic egg plant (ok), wok fried spicy noodles( ok).The tea leaf salad somehow did not match my taste,it was a favorite for most others.Another great visit with my friends group, and it was delicious and fresh. Loved the mango salad and egg plant garlic.

We ate at this place and it is a very wonderful and exciting experience. The food we ordered is very tasty, good presentation, amount of serving or quantity is fair with the price. The restaurant is clean, polite servers and owner is very friendly. We will definitely visit again and try other food.
