One of the best vegan meals I've ever eaten! Tea leaf kale salad, basil cumin chickpea tofu, and coconut veggie curry were all fresh and flavorful. Tamarind cooler and mango ginger lassi were a fine complement. Highly recommend!!

I had my baby shower here for 50 people and everything from coordination to execution was so easy and delightful. Everyone loved the food, the price was reasonable, the service was incredibly kind and accommodating. We had the space to ourselves. They were flexible with desserts and decor. I couldn’t ask for anything more and would highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a venue for a special event. This is also one of my favorite restaurants so even if you’re not in the market to do something big— stop by for some delicious food and drinks! The roti, the pea shoot salad, and beef curry are fantastic.

Sweet little restaurant with a lovely take on Burmese food. Curries, salads, lassis and more.
We shared the signature pea shoot salad, which was delicious. And then had a lunch special of spicy noodles with salad, and the chickpea tofu with garlic chili sauce. Truth, all the sauces tasted the same to me, and they were delicious. Top it off with a mango-ginger lassi and you’ll be satisfyingly full.

The Bay Area has tons of great Burmese food, but in my opinion Teni East is the best of them all. Can't miss dishes: chickpea tofu (really!), roti with dip, tea leaf salad, pea shoot salad, cauliflower with corn, basil cumin curry.

Teni does all their Burmese dishes well but the platha is where its at. If youre craving buttery, flaky, slightly sweet, but salty platha, this is the spot. The also sweet and savory dipping sauce balances the oil of the platha, melting in your mouth and leaving you saying, damn we should've ordered more.

My Daughter took us here (she had never been), she found it because it was recommended by Google. And thanks to the recommendations from the prior patrons, the food was AMAZING. I'm not at all familiar with Burmese food, but after sampling what we ordered (as you can see, me and my Grandson were ALL smiles!). Now, I'm excited to visit more Burmese food in the future. In fact, in a couple of days. We're off to a Burmese restaurant, up where we live in the Sacramento area. Hopefully they'll have similar things!

Awesome spot with really cool ambience and amazing food.
Went with the Roti and Curry dip (really good)
And Teni Spicy noodles (juuust the right amount of spice, tons of umami - delectable and satisfying)
Highly recommended

Never had burmese food before. I LOVED it. So incredibly flavorful and every dish had thought behind it. Highly recommend this restaurant. The whole fried fish is outstanding.
Amazing Burmese food. Everything was perfect. We had the pea shoot salad, lamb curry and pork belly basil cumin dish. Honestly is similar to Burma superstar but much easier to get a table and just as good if not a little better! I also had the spirited away drink which was pretty good

We enjoyed crispy fried fish and chicken cardamom curry, plus the kale fermented tea leaves salad with coconut rice and roti. All were fabulous! Highly recommended for unique flavorful dining. Only the fried fish had a spicy sauce; the other dishes were mildly spiced.

My birthday and what an awful experience. Service is pathetic. Simple requests to make the food spicy were met with such hostility. Order taken was wrong but the entitlement of the curly head server was unbelievable. Coming from the service industry, the attitude was totally unacceptable. Never again! And it’s not Michelin!!!!!!

Tasty riffs on Burmese classics, with a French Brazilian twist, in an energetic setting. Andres, our waiter, made it super pleasant experience.
