Food is made to order and with high quality ingredients. The waitress was extremely helpful and answered all our questions and made delicious recommendations. She also advised on how much to order since we didn’t want any waste or leftovers. The green tea salad was unique and delicious. The herbal tea was made with flowers. The atmosphere was very lively, we ate indoors and there is a single bathroom available for customers. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for a fun experience with delicious and healthy food.

Never had Burmese food before and...What an amazing experience. The food was fantastic and the service matched. Can't wait to come back many times over to try out more items on the menu. From the appetizers to vegetarian or spicy dishes....I enjoyed everything I tried!

I tried burmese food first time in another restaurant and liked it and visited burmese superstar with excitement trying another dishes. Generally, I was so disappointed to their portion size and price. Their main dish portion for lunch special is literally side dish of another restaurant. I think additional $8 for dressing is ridiculous. 1 scoop of rice for $4 is overpriced. If you visit this place for your date or you are on a diet , go for it. If you are hangry , you gonna be angry.

Had the misfortune to dine in this restaurant a couple of days ago. Chilli shrimp wasn’t tasty - was somewhat bitter and portion was small.
Salad was ridiculously overpriced- I get that the salad is somewhat unique with the fermented sauce but hey, that portion size isn’t enough to feed an infant.
One scoop of plain jasmine rice for $4.50 is also daylight robbery as their mains don’t come with rice. $4.50???? How do you even justify that?
Last but not least, every table gets a welcome snack except my table. Maybe the server forgot… but bro, you only have one job…. One job .___.

Burma Superstar was out of this world. Even better than the word of mouth raving reviews I have heard over the years.
The interior is small so seating is limited. Staff is very helpful, attentive and knowledgeable. I loved that they made recommendations to really give me the range of the menu and Burma offering.
The tea leaf salad is to not be missed. The flavors were so bold yet nothing too much. They toss it table side and you will devour this . It is life changing level good.
The owner overheard my excitement for coming to Burma Superstar (I’ve tried to come for about 4 years at this point) and brought out a dish we didn’t initially get but said we needed to experience. The flatbread and dip is to NOT be missed - the flavors were a marriage of flavor and comfort. Brilliant
The other dishes we ordered were the mango chicken (the best balance of spicy and sweet) and the chili and garlic shrimp. The sizes were massive so you really get your moneys worth. The range of flavors on the dishes were all over and so balanced.

I truly enjoyed this little gem in SF. The tea leaf salad is a classic must. My lychee mojito was not for the faint and the braised beef and potatoes with coconut rice was the winner this go ‘round. The catfish chowder sadly wasn’t my fav .. however, this is purely a matter of perspective. The atmosphere was mixed.. couples, families etc. it was an overall positive experience. No photos this time, as the presentation could use a bit of work. I probably wouldn’t mind visiting again!
This place has sweet people serving delicious food. Love the salads and coconut shrimp. Have no idea why Burmese food isn’t a thing elsewhere. It was like Indian food and Thai had a love-child.
This place was out of this world. Starting with service and ending with food. Absolutely worth going!

Burma Superstar? More like Burma Super-delicious! The spicy food from Yangon took my taste buds on an adventure they weren’t ready for (in the best way possible). The beef dumplings? Absolute flavor bombs. The chili lamb? So spicy, I started questioning life choices—but kept eating anyway. And the jackfruit dessert? Let’s just say I wasn’t sure if I was eating fruit or magic. Highly recommend this place if you like your food with a kick and your service with a smile. 5 stars, 1 sweating forehead, and no regrets!
