sept. '25 update: y'all can only have dinner here Tuesday-Thursday. lunch Tuesday - Sunday.

AND it's a carryout now open everyday but Mondays, closed between meals and closed early at 9 (9:30 on weekends)

they are back in their old building. but it was vacant for so long, and they're not using the whole room anymore... it's got kindof a popup vibe.

Love Mandalay. (1) Not a lot...
September 2025
This is my FAVORITE restaurant on planet earth. I have never had a bad dish, and I've had hundreds. I adored the owners and everyone who works here. We even were going to have them cater our wedding (but wedding location changed to Midwest)
September 2025
We stopped here on a Friday evening to learn they only do carryout on the weekends, which was a bit surprise but whatever. We grabbed a beef curry, pork curry, and a flat noodle dish to go and devoured everything at some of the outdoor seating near Ellsworth Place. Everything was super spicy and very delicious. Zero complaints on the food, some of the better Burmese food I've had.
