They put an embarrassing little amount of food in their 16$ items. Never ordering again after ordering for two years.

Really good Burmese food. Flavors were on point. Best food delivery meal I’ve had in a very long time. Can’t wait to dine in

Both my partner and I had mild food poisoning after eating here. This is part of a group of take out-only restaurants all operating out of a single take out window. There is no way to judge the cleanliness of the place or get any sense of what’s happening in the kitchen. It had a weird atmosphere with dozens of delivery workers lounging around as they waited. Not going back!

Ordered it through GrubHub last night. I was REALLY impressed of how good and hot it was. We already have our favorite Burmese place near our home. But if we ever have to order from elsewhere, then we’ll look here.

The only bad thing is that we need to consider deliverers since it looks like it’s pick-up only and the kitchen has no control over that.

Takeout Burmese ghost kitchen. The food isn’t terrible but it’s isn’t inspiring. Garlic was overwhelming and sauces and coconut rice were too sugary.

Ghost kitchen, pickup only. Food is okay, more convenient than anything. Appropriately priced about $17-18 for an entree that is meal sized

Food was prepared very quickly with excellent flavor and generous portions. Expect dishes to be $15-$17. Keep in mind that this is a ghost kitchen, so there is limited seating to eat.

Parking: Free street parking. The area is dirty but not sketchy.

Wheelchair accessibility: The sidewalk isn't continuous and there's no telling if the front spots will be taken, so it could be difficult to access the front door.

This has one of the best mohin gha (catfish chowder) in SF. My mom is Burmese and we use too much fish sauce, but I’ve been trying this dish at all the local Burmese restaurants. Other places strain it or make it pulp free, but this one was mealy and very tasty. It came with the right amount of noodles and toppings. The platha and coconut rice are amazing for being standard sides. Other places sometimes seem like they’re giving you day old food, like the rice is compacted and hard. This fluffy coconut infused rice was made by someone who says there’s no such thing as too much coconut flavor. I’ve only ordered off Postmates and there’s no restaurant to eat at, but they do not give utensils unless you ask. Their boxes don’t have air vents for fried food, but we can’t all be perfect.

Ordered here many times. Beef curry, beef is always mega tough. I don't recommend getting that meat. Honestly, their meats are always very dry. If so, prices should be like $12, but it's much higher.

Best Burmese food in the Bay Area. Far Beats Burma love and Burma superstar. Completely unassuming location with incredible food at a great price, just compromising on service with take out only.

Quality Burmese food with authentic taste, prepared in commissary kitchen.Winners include Shan Noodle — not typically Burmese, but from Myanmar: rice noodles served in smokey tomato sauce, pleasantly unique. Burmese-style Lamb Red Curry, fragrantly balancing South and Southeast Asian ingredients, both wet and dry.Tea Leaf Salad, gets the flavor right, but not as umami-funky as other places. Pumpkin Curry with Chicken, a good option when seeking the mildly flavored.Downside is very long wait time (~40 minutes) and an in-house dining / pickup system that needs tightening. No notification of food being ready, requiring check-in with expeditor.
