First time trying Burmese food and it was delicious. The staff was so friendly and suggested great items. Will definitely be back.

We came in for a quick post workout lunch. My spicy garlic eggplant and coconut rice was delicious. We selected dine-in and the cashier forgot the water she offered us, I had to ask another worker. I also had to ask for chopsticks. They only gave us 1 napkin a piece and despite dining in, my food was served in a single use plastic tub that is not compostable. It didn't make us feel welcome. We'll either just order to-go in the future or stick to their main restaurant Burma Superstar.

Burma Bites on Telegraph Avenue in Oakland offers a delightful surprise with tasty chicken "sando" and a phenomenal Rainbow Salad. The garlic fries are amazing, but the garlic noodles were disappointing. The street food atmosphere adds to the authenticity of the experience, earning them 4 stars. Recent reviews mention that the menu has shifted to be more bread and sandwich heavy, which some customers do not prefer, especially those who enjoyed the gluten-friendly options before. The restaurant used to be known for its stellar wings with a sticky sweet sauce, which many customers hope will return. The Burmese chicken and eggs fried rice with Burmese milk tea are popular choices, though some find the fried rice less appealing, especially if they realize it is brown rice. The Thai dish is highly praised. Customers appreciate the friendly and professional staff, with good service and overall nice vibes. Favorites include the Tea leaf salad, green beans, popcorn chicken, and fiery noodles. While some wish for more vegetables in meat dishes, the restaurant continues to be a recommended spot for authentic street food-style Burmese cuisine.
