The decor is basic & casual, but you come here for the food. The. Tea Leaf Salad was very satisfying. Love the crunch. I had Fried Vermicelli Noodle with tofu. Flavor was on the lighter side, but nevertheless delicious. They interestingly used mini tofu, which is even smaller than a pea. Hubby tried Burmese Garlic Noodle with chicken. The garlic flavor was powerful enough without being overpowering. We enjoyed the food. I had Burmese Tea for the first time, fully expecting it to taste like Thai Tea, but it was more like (Hong Kong) milk tea which I like. Service was ok. It was a holiday weekend & not busy. Only 1 person was on the floor. The restaurant is located in a strip mall and not the best area. Parking is limited on the ground floor, The day we visited, the underground level was closed. read more

A little sad to be giving this 3 stars but I was a little let down with my first Burmese experience, especially with how kind the staff were. We got the tea salad and the garlic noodles. The noodles were somewhat cold and clumped together making it hard to mix and separate. It reminded me of stale instant noodles. A little bland by itself but with the spicy sauce at the side of the table, it added that extra flavor I think it needed. The tea salad was good as well but I can see how it could be better. It was interesting having a salad mixed with tea leaves and left a good taste. The tea was subtle and not over powering. It was all just a bit mushy once mixed together. I guess I expected the veggies to be a little more fresh and crisp. Overall, I enjoyed being able to try out new foods and experience a new cultures cuisine but I just left feeling like I needed more in terms of satisfaction. The ambience was nice. Rustic, dim and homey vibes with some additional spices and things you could buy in the front. There is also plenty of parking in the lot when we came for dinner.

Bagan Burmese Kitchen - Burmese Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The sweetest people run this place, I wish it were more well known!! In the front ish (where you pay) there are some snacks, and adjacent is some Burmese jewelry which is really cool!! Food is good, I liked my noodles but really i loved my blue lychee drink more. Prices are standard for LA. It was pretty quiet in the restaurant tbh but i'm attributing that to the time we went. I came with a friend around 2 in the afternoon and there was hardly any people here. For parking you can either be in the street level parking lot or the underground parking structure. read more

My bf is from the Bay Area and misses the Burmese food from there. We got the tea leaf salad and Burmese Noodle Salad and were very happy with it. Bf also ordered a chicken biryani and while it had south East Asian flavors and not like a strictly Indian biryani he enjoyed it. The noodle salad reminded me of what my childhood Burmese friend's mom used to make at home. I have not had authentic Burmese food for over 25 years and this was a welcome reintroduction to Burmese food! I didn't like the weird texture of the fried burmese tofu, tasted mushy like potato patties, and the green Pandan coconut milk dessert was just okay. Over all the quality of the stable foods and service was great and food tasted homemade, made with love! The owners were very nice and allowed us to dine in with our well behaved dogs even though the place was indoors. We called ahead. They even offered our dogs water although we declined because the dogs tend to knock bowls over. The place was not busy at all on a Sunday night. The parking lot outside had a bunch of 30 min parking only spots on a Sunday but we parked there for an hour and it was fine. I have yet to try Jasmine Market in Culver City, heard that is good as well but this place is pretty authentic and solid if you're craving Burmese! read more

I was in the mood for Burmese tea leaf salad, and with timing on my side (I had to take my Mom to an appointment a couple of miles away) THIS was the place! Granted, it's the only one I found close enough... We came through an hour into opening so I didn't fret about a wait to get seated. It was empty when we walked in. That was a good thing because as first timers, we knew we were gonna take a minute before we decide what to get. What I do know is we were gonna go for the tea leaf salad and the mohinga. So, Mom is a pork fiend and with two different (albeit similar) types they offered, we decided to get both. (She couldn't make up her mind!) We also went for the egg rolls to start. We placed our orders up front and had our choice of seating. Interesting enough, on one corner, they have an arts and gems area - sorta like a makeshift mini-jewelry kiosk. There was nothing in 'em, though... EGG ROLLS: Made to order HOT. Crispy and crunchy delicious. The filling was almost hearty. I don't even think I even bothered with the dip, they were good on their own! TEA LEAF SALAD: We aren't fans of jalapeños, so I'm glad they didn't didn't mix it in - much easier to take it all out at once. (Gotta make a mental note to have it omitted next time.) I've had my share of this from plenty of places. The one here, like the rest, had that similar essence, aroma, taste and texture. However, I felt there's something missing from it. Don't get me wrong, it's delicious, but the umami wasn't as poppin' as I had hoped. I'd still recommend it, though! MOHINGA: This was on point! The flavor was rich and deep and really hearty! It's one of those soups or stews to have most especially on a cold rainy day. The pea crackers added a good texture. If there's anything to order at a Burmese spot, it's this! And the tea leaf salad! PORK BELLY STEW: The pork was cooked soft and tender. The broth had a lot of flavor and depth. The seasonings and spices they used are well-balanced! BRAISED PORK BELLY: Prepped similar as the pork belly stew, the flavors are kinda similar but the sour mustard leaves and the Chinese 5 spice altered the overall taste. This too was prepped well. FOOD: 4. SERVICE: 4. Staff was friendly and patient and service with a smile is always a plus, but had to knock a star down for one reason: all our food came out all at once, and it ended up filling up our small table. We barely had wiggle room for... well... anything, really. We would have much preferred to get the app, salad and soup and enjoy them first before getting our main courses. And really, there was no reason to rush our orders - we were the only ones there. Oh, and serving spoons and bowls would come in really handy. I hope they take note of that. VALUE: 4. PARKING: Shared with other businesses. There's a parking lot and underground parking available as well. If that's still an issue (most likely won't be - there's plenty of spots downstairs) there's also street parking. OVERALL: 4. The restaurant was more than half filled with customers when we neared the end of our experience, so they kinda have a following. We enjoyed our visit, I'll admit! It hit that Burmese-food-craving spot. Will make another stop should I find myself around here AND have that craving once again. read more

Service was great but I wish they had AC and better decor- they had jewelry store cabinets without anything in them for some reason. We enjoyed the food but the multitude of options made ordering confusing for a first timer; our server got us through fine though. Chicken curry paratha- 7/10. VERY flaky but also very greasy. I also expected the curry to be thicker than it was. Shan noodles- 7/10. A little too funky for my taste I really hope this place updates their menu and general vibes to make it more comfortable. I really want them to succeed so I'm bumping up my review to 4 stars instead of 3. read more

Burmese food in Silver Lake! Don't forget Yelp check-in offer! You order at the counter, but if they're not busy and want to eat in they can set up order at table. There is a discount if you order through their direct portal. There's some parking in front of the restaurant but there is ample free parking in the underground lot. The QR code at the table takes you to an online ordering portal that has photos for most of the food, but the paper menus have some. If you had other southeast Asian foods before like Thai you may see some familiar kinds of foods like coconut based curries, noodle and rice dishes, sweet rice desserts, as well as Burmese takes on fries and wings. Let the host know if you have allergies. They let us know what's in each dish. My first foray into Burmese food is the tea leaf salad which is hard to find at Asian marts. We had to ask Burmese friends to get us the ingredients. So we just had to order it here to see if our homemade interpretations match. It was tasty! It did come with dried shrimp and jalapeños which we haven't added before so it made a nice heat. We also got Burmese garlic noodle with tofu and coconut noodle soup with chicken. Be aware both are noodle heavy! Both are quite fragrant and flavorful. Great options! The coconut curry has a nutty sweet taste while the garlic noodles has a great garlic flavor lingering on your tongue with each bite. We came on a Sunday even and were the only guests but there was a steady stream of pick up orders and delivery drivers. read more

Crispy with wonderful dipping sauce.Then main dishes from Bagan with Lamb Biryani! Cooked with raisin,cashew, nuts and spices. Wow the spices are so amazing and flavorful. Also had the Pad Thai with tofu in Tamarind sauce. Delicious!!! Go for a real treat! They can do Vegan, Veggie, Meat or with Fish! read more

Well hello Burmese food, nice to find you here in this little strip mall of Silver Lake. Seems like an interestingly ethnic find for this area. We were trying to go to Daybird but they close at 6:30 so we decided to give Bagan a little nibble. We ordered the cashier's favorite noodles, Si Chat Kyaut Swe, the garlic noodles and added pork. I asked if they made their own noodles (because in my experience a lot of places like this do), but they don't. There were a few pieces of pork added but could have used double the amount. The pork bits were chopped up roasted pork with crispy skin. YUM! If you know, you know. The second item we tried was the paratha with coconut curry. This thin layered bread is so good! I think it's thin pan fried dough, there was a tasty layer of grease dripping from the edges. We opted for the coconut curry dip (vs the beef or chicken) for the flavor. It was tasty, i could have easily dipped a couple more pieces to the paratha to into that sauce. If Daybird is closed again, I'd definitely eat here again and give a few more dishes a try. Parking after 7 pm was easy. I've been to this mall during the day, parking at that time is not fun. read more

Very chill spot, feels like a mom and pop place. Friendly service. I saw families, friends, and solo diners here. I used to go to silver lake spa, which is in the same plaza. Parking in the underground garage is free & usually fairly plentiful. A tea leaf salad is a Burmese food must. I felt it was too salty, as were most of the items. However, my friend loved all of it so maybe it's just me. My fav dish was the lamb curry - hard to go too salty on something like that! The meat wasn't too tough either. The noodle w/ curry chicken was good too... good balance with creamy curry in there. I enjoyed my Burmese grass jelly drink - pictured here with pandan added. If only we'd left room for dessert... I live close by so, next time! Btw it's the same restaurant as mala city dry pot, so don't get confused and just go on in! I need to try that next time too. read more

All of the food was super authentic.

First time having Burmese food and it was delicious, very flavorful! Mango salad- lots of flavor I've never had before and good spice level. Light and refreshing, paired well with coconut rice. Crispy goat- my husband loves goat and he said he can never find and restaurant that serves goat, lots of crispy garlic slices. Also paired well with coconut rice. Gyoza pork- very crispy and plump filling. Lychee drink and Burmese grass jelly was delicious too, very sweet but nice after the meal! Very friendly and nice service read more

Running a few errands, I stopped by for a quick lunch. I'd only eaten Burmese food one other time, so by no means am I an expert, but the dishes were flavorful and filling. A couple of men were seated in the dining room when I arrived, and the woman behind the counter let me choose where I wanted to sit. I sat at a table near the window. I scanned a QR code for the menu and decided on Fish Chowder Noodle Soup, fries topped with chicken curry and a hot Burmese tea. The food was served hot, with the fries coming out shortly before the soup. I couldn't finish it all and took the leftovers home (the dishes were decent when reheated, but I'd recommend eating it fresh if possible). Parking is a little tight at tricky intersection. It's easiest to enter the lot from Beverly Boulevard coming from Koreatown toward Silverlake. read more

Growing up eating Burmese food in the country of origin, I may be a harsh critic towards Burmese food in LA. I think this place has good Burmese food. They do great curries and left me feeling nostalgic. I tried the lamb curry and the meat was really soft and tender with the curry thick and flavourful. The pork belly was really tasty too. I like upgrading to the tea leaf rice that the curry comes with. The samosa was also really crunchy and stuffed with a good amount of potatoes. My favourite Burmese dish is Shan Kao Swe. They do a different version of the one I grew up eating but it was still good. The Nan Gyi Thote was also pretty good though still not the same as from the country. However, I loved the condiments that these dishes come with such as the Ee Kya Guay and Nge Phe; not many places have that. Now to the La Phat Thote, from what I remember during childhood, I've never had it with lettuce. For some reason in America, they put lettuce in it. But they did a pretty good job of it here. The only dish I wish could have been better was the Mohinga. The soup was too diluted for me and not enough fish bits and not thick enough. It was nice to see grass jelly drink on the menu as I loved that drink. Overall, they have good dishes and I thought it was a great starter to try out Burmese cuisine for those who are not familiar to it. read more

I finally found a decent Burmese restaurant that I can proudly recommend to my friends. Since I grew up in Burma, people often ask me where they can go eat Burmese food in LA area.

They have parking lot down the basement. read more

Bagan is a wonderful gem here in Koreatown. It was always one of those places I would pass by and promise myself that I'd go. I was so excited to try this Burmese restaurant because I hadn't had the chance to try it before I moved to LA in 2022! They have FREE parking at a garage underground in the plaza. When you walk in, I really liked the cozy, spacious interior, especially the beautiful display of colorful umbrellas hanging artistically from the ceiling. I went during the day, but I feel like the umbrellas lit up at night with dimmer lights would be a total vibe, so I'll have to go again. PLEASE NOTE: During lunch, they have a limited amount of servers so it's best if you order at the front and then they'll bring you your food. Please don't mistake this as them being rude, just at this point as a small business, they can't afford to fully staff both lunch and dinner services since it's not their prime business hour! The staff there are really kind and will always be happy to help you have a great time. I'm a noodle monster, so I had to get the Fried Flat Rice Noodle ($14 and gluten-free) and the Tea Leaf Salad ($15 and gluten-free). I learned that Burmese flavors are a mixture of Indian and Southeast Asian influences, so there were familiar flavors that I've often had in Thai cuisine, but a really delicious twist because of the Indian spices! The tea leaf salad is really unique because the green tea leaves are fermented which makes for a deeper, stronger flavor, and then they're served with crunchy peanuts and shrimp too! It is pretty salty so I highly suggest pairing this salad with other dishes. The noodles were fresh, comforting, and yummy, good on protein with the scrambled eggs and shrimp! I would suggest asking for some hot sauce on the side to add to the noodles if you like spicy. This is a great place to take friends, family, dates, and loved ones--can't wait to go back! read more

For appetizers I tried their Paratha with Coconut Curry dip, I really love how crispy, flaky, yet light it was.

For dessert I ordered Shwe Yin Aye which consists of Sweet Sticky Rice, Tapioca, Pandan Jelly, Coconut Jelly and Coconut milk. You can really taste the coconut which I really liked.

delicious vegan options! i absolutely love burmese food. it is oddly hard to come by in LA, yet plentiful in the bay area which makes me envious because we need more recognition down here! it is located on virgil ave in a strip mall i've driven past too many times in my life, yet i never noticed it! upon arrival, it was unfortunately empty! luckily, i really like dining in peace so it was the ideal situation for me. my boyfriend and i shared samosas, tea leaf salad, nan gyi noodles, and two cups of water. all of the food met our standards! the portions were shareable. we were really happy with the flavors overall. the staff was kind and accommodating to our vegan diet. they took our order promptly and brought our food out in a timely manner. the tables were clean and the restroom was available which is always nice. we had been craving burmese food since returning from our trip to thailand a few weeks ago. this spot is authentic and the dishes are tasty. the prices are also extremely reasonable compared to burmese restaurants up north or down south (SD). worth a visit and worth a try! i will happily come back for more. if you're vegan and looking for something new to eat, don't hesitate to have burmese food! it is similar to thai food yet different in all the best ways. read more

Not sure what the reviews are talking about because this was the most bland food ever! We ordered the most popular dishes, according to the waiter, and everything was lacking flavor. Paratha was greasy. Chicken and beef curry terrible - go get Indian food instead! The noodle dish was the worst pad Thai of my life. Service was bad too. I ordered boba and the boba was literally frozen! The Burmese cold tea was so bitter. The food took forever.

It's rare for me to be let down by a spot in LA, but this was a strange experience LOL. I visited with a friend on Saturday around lunch time, but it was beyond empty - like we were the only souls there. Should've been the first red flag haha... Anyways, we ordered a few things that were recommended by the staff like the Fish Chowder Noodle Soup and the Rice Plate with Shredded Beef. I thought the Tea Leaf Salad was going to be a hit because that's such a classic Burmese dish, but even this was just okay. I've definitely had better elsewhere. The Fish Chowder Soup was legit cold when it came out, so the noodles had all clumped together and wouldn't really separate. The Rice Plate as just alright..like the beef was more of a jerky-like consistency, and again, this wasn't warm when it was served to us. Probably wouldn't come here again unless I was like really craving Burmese food for some reason :/. read more

Please for the love of baby Jesus give this place your business people. I'll be so mad if they end up closing. Burmese food is phenomenal and this place crushes it. I could eat their mohinga everyday. It's perfectly savory and has all the textural notes you would want. It's the best noodle soup you might not have tried before. This place is a GEM, but it's always empty because people don't know it exists. Take a break from pizza, burgers, and Thai food. You can eat ramen tomorrow. Come here.

Burma, the former Siam, as it roots from Thai cuisine, but also influenced by its proximity to India in Bangladesh. The food here, while familiar in name to most people, who've gone to a Thai restaurant will be a pleasant surprise in terms of ace, subtle, but distinct difference in flavoring and preparation. For example Bagans Pad Thai dish looks the same as a Thai version but you'll find that it is much lighter less oily than the Thai equivalent As echoed in many other reviews, some outstanding menu items are - the incredible melt in your mouth lamb curry, the rich and flavorful chicken curry, the tea leaf rice, and all of their soup dishes, especially the fish stew. The restaurant is staffed very lightly to keep cost down but because they are very attentive and watching over the customers you just need to glance at them or waive your hand and they're right there with whatever you need. It's interesting watching the two televisions, one tuned to current Thai boxing matches, and the other on a continuous feed of 24 hours in Burma. and yet playing modern contemporary music in the background period all in all pretty mellow place, making for easy conversation, or simply getting away from the busyness or traffic from the nearby boulevards. Parking is really easy both with the front lot spaces in the 50 extra spaces in the lot behind the building. They also have a small selection of Malaysian Burmese and Thai ingredients and snacks available for sale. read more

Ordered take out from this new place in town! Burmese restaurants are pretty rare in LA, so I was very excited to see this new restaurant pop up! We ordered the Tea leaf salad, which was amazing! Truly like the real one you get in Myanmar, make sure to mix all the ingredients together. The mohinga which is a traditional fish soup that they usually serve for breakfast. When I was in Myanmar I was very skeptical of this dish, but fell in love with it and this restaurant does a very good job at making it as good as in Myanmar. We also got the Shan noodles, this dish I was a little disappointed by, I feel like the flavor wasn't as powerful as I would have liked. We also got the Bagan's Mixed Fruit drink which was delicious and very sweet! I only wish they also sold Falooda! The restaurant is pretty bare and has a few tables. It seems more of a to-go type of place. Parking is very easy, there is plenty up front and downstairs in the garage. I would definitely eat here again!

I'm always thrilled to see a new Burmese place in town, particularly one close to my home base and with convenient parking (this matters way too much in LA). Bagan has an extensive menu - I'm sure there are some obscure specialties they don't have, but any dish I could think of to want, they offered. Their tea leaf salad came pre-mixed, which was visually unfortunate but no matter, it was balanced wonderfully and contained all of the good crunchy bits. It was less fermented than some versions I've had, but still sour enough to be noticeable. Their lamb curry is has plenty of tender chunks of meat and has a more Indian bent to it, pretty clove-heavy. Their mohinga is delicious, and also magically keeps their lentil fritters crispy while submerged in the broth. Like at most Burmese places, the tofu fritters taste nothing like tofu. These are kind of like fried mashed potatoes. Unfortunately their purple lemonade (butterfly pea, ostensibly) just tastes like Crystal Light with food coloring. The blue lychee drink it better but still tooth achingly sweet. I'd stick to the food. read more
