We ordered almost all the famous Burmese dishes one can think of. Surprisingly it has almost everything from back home. They taste great and authentic.
My only complaint is the portion size. The amount of money it charges like a fine dining restaurant. I paid 30 bucks for large tea leaves salad and it's still too small of a size.
No washroom for customers. The space is too small for dine in as a big group.

Ridiculously awesome!! Once in a lifetime cuisine, def have to try it out.
Genuinely excellent Burmese food in a tiny East Village space.
The Tea Leaf Salad (laphet thoke) is the standout and the most authentic version I've had — some places drown it in fried garlic, but here it's balanced just right, so you actually taste the fermented tea leaves, the nuts, and the brightness instead of just garlic. The Seafood Salad is the sleeper hit: gently warmed rather than served cold, so it's not a ceviche even though it looks like one, and the texture...read full review

Little Myanmar is a Burmese restaurant that offers authentic and delicious food. The spicy stir-fry hot pot, Mala Xiang Guo, is a must-try for those who enjoy spicy dishes. It is a fight for one's life with the heat, but it is worth it as it is incredibly flavorful. For those who prefer milder dishes, the chicken curry is a great option. The restaurant also offers Burmese tea leaf salad, laphet, which is highly recommended. The tea salad has a perfect balance of seasoning and a unique texture from its various ingredients. Many customers praise its fresh, earthy, and tangy taste, with one describing it as a dish full of depth and flavor. The mohinga is nothing like you would expect from a fish soup; the broth is light and mild, and the chickpea fritters compliment it wonderfully. The tea leaf salad with anchovies has the right crunch without any fishy smell and is rich in flavor without being spicy. The iced milk tea is strong and refreshing. The staff is friendly and shows outstanding attention to preferences. There are only two staff who are customer service, waitresses, chefs, and cashier. The cozy and intimate atmosphere features only a few tables in a very small space, giving it a family-owned feel. The restaurant accepts only cash or digital payments like Zelle or Venmo. Prices are reasonable, and portions are generous. Although the space is small and can be chilly in winter, the incredible flavors make it worthwhile. This spot delivers satisfaction. Overall, Little Myanmar is a great place to enjoy authentic Burmese cuisine and taste dishes that bring a true sense of home to Myanmar expatriates and food lovers alike.
