Long time wait
Fried chicken with bamboo shoots
The tea salad here was incredible! It is just as good if not better than Burma superstar. We also really enjoyed the coconut rice and the mango chicken. I highly recommend going here! Do note there isn’t a ton of seating so if it’s a weekend & you want to eat there, I’d definitely call ahead for reservations. Otherwise, they do take out as well.

tldr; this place is better than Berma Love.
It may look like just another lunch place in the design district, but it's really a hidden gem. The food is delicious. The flavors are subtle and complex. If you are in the neighborhood, give them a try!!
Edit: came back and had the garlic eggplant, coconut rice, and platha with coconut chicken dip. Everything was delicious, but the coconut dip was divine!!! It's like a party in my mouth. An absolute must have.

Not sure what's up with all the great reviews on this place (maybe theyre paid?) but food was extremely underwhelming. Pad Thai had very little taste and was average quality. Also the tea leaf salad was just some basic shredded romaine and the tiniest little bit of tomato. Very very underwhelming. Would not recommend this place unfortunately

I had the fermented tea salad, which was pretty interesting to make and experience. Not sure I'll order it again, as I wasn't much of a fan, but overall the food here is fascinating. Service was good when ordering delivery via Doordash.

Such a tasty treat! We went for dinner and had the Samusa, Tea Leaf Salad, and some veggies. Everything was so delicious. The server was very friendly. The restaurant was very clean and welcoming. Definitely will go back. It’s also affordable.

If Google says 'permanently closed' then Google is poetically wrong on this one. They've been having an issue with GoogleMaps saying that and it's apparently impacting their business. So, if you see that, just give them a call to confirm. We did, and I'm so happy for it.This place is great. You have to try the Tea Leaf Salad. My friend ordered it for us, I never would have thought to try it but it was amazing. So was the goat curry. Great stuff.

We got it delivered so we can't speak to the atmosphere. The food was fresh and good quality. Overall I felt I would definitely try more items on the menu before making a final judgment. We got tea leaf salad and fiery tofu stir fry. Both felt good to eat but ultimately lacked some excitement in spices. The coconut rice was pretty good too easy to eat plain which is a good thing. My takeaway would be that it gets the job done but doesn't compete with some of the other Burmese food locally. It's worth a try to see if it hits the spot for you!
Vegetarian options: There are plenty of vegetarian options and plenty of gluten free options.

Always satisfying to dine in or pickup from here. Food is just as good as other Burmese places I’ve had but it is actually more affordable. Not as popular but highly recommend this place for a good meal.
