Horrible service, skimp on food portion, and food taste bad, rubbery and old. No one is inside and there are only a handful of menu items they sell as they are a struggling business who don't seem to have money to buy the ingredients. They rather you not go there to bother ordering at all. When you try to pick something from the handful size menu list, the employees say there is no more of that food item. Food is not worth getting and this place is not worth going to. Other restaurants nearby. Go to other ones instead.

Walked in and walked out. They were not welcoming at all. I ask for a menu and she pointed at the wall. There was like 10 items on the bored. The place was dark and dead figured out why as soon as I walked in. Can not comment on the food as I was disappointed just with whom ever the lady was. Usually go to tams but wanted to try something different. Will never step foot in that nasty food poisoning looking restaurant.
Went in to order all you can eat and nothing was there has a smell

They might close before 9? Walked in Friday night at 7:20pm and most of the lights were out (but their door was open). Asked if they were open and a older gentleman gestured for us to sit. (Update: Tried to go at 7:40pm another night and they were already shut down tighter than a drum. It's like they're allergic to money.)
Food was good but service was odd. Like if you didn't grow up with a surly, emotionally distant Asian mom like I did, you may feel uncomfortable. For instance, the first thing out of her mouth was not "welcome" or simply "hi," but "no more buffet." Not sure if they meant "today" or "*ever*," but I didn't ask...?
I think the woman was the chef and not only the waitress because she walked between the kitchen and the fridge (just out in the dining room) a lot as well as served us, while the man mostly just sat there.
Garlic chicken, mo hinga (fish soup), and pork curry were great. The mo hinga was not fishy and was topped with delicious fried lentils that were like a crunchier version of tempura flakes. The pork curry included hunks of soft, gelatinous tendon (not fat but you might get confused) and came with rice. The rice noodles were a bit thin and on the cusp of becoming too soft.
Tea leaf salad was good too but not as good as at Rangoon Ruby. You have to mix it a lot or the clumps of tea will be too salty.
I feel a little snubbed that another reviewer got homemade chili sauce but we got a bottle of Huy Fong sriracha, lol.
Portions and prices are reasonable. Two of us polished off 4 dishes.
Shan noodles are apparently the dish to get at Burmese, according to Eater San Francisco, but I didn't notice they had it until later.
The menu has no prices and the bill apparently includes tax and doesn't charge any B.S. fees. We tipped well and paid cash because I couldn't trust Maps saying they take card and communication was a bit difficult.

Garlic’s Noodles To Go is a must-try for anyone who loves garlic and noodles.

The authentic taste in menu offerings makes up for the dark, one lamp lighted (literally) restaurant space that doubles as a Burmese store. Remnants of pre-COVID buffet still prevalent.
Shan Noodles, though a bit dry on sauce, had an excellent spicy-savory flavor, topped with chicken and peanuts. Accompanying house made chili sauce, a must.
Come for the flavor, not the service.

I normally don't like to leave poor, negative reviews on Burmese restaurants, since I am Burmese—born and raised in Yangon, Myanmar (formerly Rangoon, Burma).I would like to preface my review by stating that I do like their samosas and pe kyaw. It's these two items are the "silver lining" during my parents' visit two days ago on August 31, 2023 from Vacaville, CA, which is about 75 miles one-way.As a personal chef, my culinary focus and repertoire is Burmese, Indian, and Persian (Iranian) cuisines. I like to think that I know about food, cooking, and using spices/herbs.At my request, my parents brought back "Chicken Curry" and let me tell you, it is an abomination and insult to "Chicken Curries" everywhere. The meat tastes rubbery and with skin on. Why on earth would you leave skin on, when cooking chicken curry? There is a residual "chicken smell," if that make sense. Have you ever tasted boiled chicken? This is the exact texture and smell.Please consider sending your chef/cook to learn better Burmese Chicken Curry recipes and make my culture's cuisine proud.My parents did enjoy their clay pot or "Kyay Ta Yao" with rice noodles and assortments of meats, etc. We consider it donation and patronage towards our own people and community.Please improve your Chicken Curry. Excise the skin. Test and learn other Burmese Chicken Curry recipes and improve Ledu's.Best in health and warmest of wishes,Nyein ZawVacaville, CA

Great Southeast Asian flavours and tasty soups were perfect in the chilly coastal town of Pacifica. Dry Shan noodles and garlic were wonderful too.
