Salads and appetizers were good. Entree taste can be better

The food was packed with flavour and the flavors were interesting and varied. We ordered the tea leaf salad, fish noodle soup, shrimp dishes and calamari appetizer; none of them were disappointing. There is limited seating and it got quite busy around 7 45 on a Friday night, so make sure to make reservations in advance or call ahead to see if there is space. The service was good. They offered recomendations towards our dishes and treated us with friendliness.

As vegetarians, Burmese is one of our go to’s and Burma Bistro never disappoints. Try their tea leaf salad, fiery tofu and a bunch of curries. Seating can be tight.

Small restaurant, but great food! Can get loud, but it's because everyone is having a good time and enjoying life. Definitely worth a visit ^_^

It was just ok. The tea leaf salad is better at kyusu. Rice dish with chicken was pretty good, but not enough to bring me back. Lots of stuff to choose from so maybe we just got the wrong thing, but overall would prefer Kyusu if given the choice. Service was very nice and friendly though!

I had tea leaves salad and a chicken dish. I at first asked my girlfriend what the green sauce was and she told me they were tea leaves. But after I had it, there was literally no tea leaf flavor.. also it was such a waste to use plastic gloves to squeeze the lemon and mix the salad before the customers. As for the chicken, don't waste your money. You can do almost the same dish at home for a few bucks.

This restaurant has one of the best tea leaf salads in South Bay. The portion size is big too, and I was hardly able to eat anything else after eating half the salad. We also ordered the fish noodle soup. It comes with rice noodles and the flavors blend well. Also highly recommend the Burmese iced tea! For the area,the prices are good too.

I eat in this spot a lot since I work close by. I must say the customer service is always excellent and they keep the place well organized consistently. Rates are reasonable and they serve large portions.

This is a wonderful place close to where I live. We wanted to come here for a long time but managed it only now. Very tasty food, I like their samosa soup. They have a variety of vegetarian options. Would love to come back here anytime.
