    This was my third time dining at Burma Burma, and they continue to impress every time. We decided to try a couple of new dishes this time, a fish dish and a beef dish with sauces I hadn't tried here before. Both were delicious and a nice change from some of our usual favorites. The tea leaf salad was definitely the star of the meal. It was so fresh and light, and the flavors paired really well with the heavier main dishes. I also really appreciate that they ask how spicy you want your food. That's such a nice touch, especially when you don't necessarily want your meal to come out at the standard spice level. The jasmine rice was fluffy and made a great complement to the main dishes. Everything came out hot and surprisingly quickly, even though the restaurant was busy. The staff is always super friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. They do tend to get busy, so I definitely recommend making a reservation if you're planning to dine here.

    Tea Leaf Salad
    Brian H.

    I will say in like the food- the staff is nice and this place is busy- I can see why- they are efficient and friendly .. the tea leaf salad. Samosa - lemongrass chicken and the tea... happy happy birthday to me.. it's in a strip mall. Plenty of parking and we sat in a booth - comfortable for me . There are plenty of tables and they will put them together for big parties - there were a few there that night .. I will be back

    A pretty good Burmese place! My only complaint too much soy and fish sauce in "lemongrass chicken"! We have went there as a family, there were four of us! The okra and egg curry was very good, there were two eggs each halved and okras. I like okra, if I have to be bit critique, I would say some pieces of okras are bit dry!! Now the lemongrass chicken was very good but the only problem is the amount of soy and fish sauce there! It's drenched! The other dishes are very good as well! The rice pudding with "mango" ice cream was delicious. The reason the "mango" was in quotes as it was not mango. A peach maybe, but definitely not mango! Overall pretty good, I like Burmese food in general! Will visit again!

    Basil Chili Beef
    Razaa A.

    Chicken, beef, and lamb are halal here, which is great for those with dietary restrictions. I ordered the basil chili beef, which was extremely tender and flavorful. I was surprised to see how quickly the food is served, my plate of steaming hot and fresh food was on my plate within 10 minutes of the order. The parking is a little bit tight in the parking lot, and the service was relatively fast and easy. Overall, I would recommend the basil chili beef, and I also tried what others on my table had ordered and their food was also delicious. They ordered the chicken pad Thai, the lamb curry, and the palata appetizer and you can't go wrong with either of those either. Check this place out for yourself!

    Burmese Style Lamb Curry
    Levin Z.

    Tried the tea leaf salad and Burmese lamb curry. The tea leaf salad was unique and tasted pretty good, but $18 felt expensive for what it was. The lamb curry had a surprisingly generous amount of meat, probably around 15 pieces, so the portion was good for $23. The lamb was tender, but it didn't have much flavor inside and had a slightly powdery texture. The potatoes were also not fully soft. It felt like the lamb, potatoes, and curry sauce were prepared separately instead of being slowly cooked together. Overall, the food was interesting and portions were decent, but the cooking was inconsistent. I'm glad I tried it, but I don't think it fully justified the price. 3 stars.

    Palata with curry
    Betsaida C.

    The food was excellent! All of it was flavorful and came out quickly! The service was also timely and very on top of it. It was a lovely experience. Ambiance was also calm and mellow. It was truly a great time with my friend.

    Moh-Hin-Gha (Pureed Catfish Chowder) - I LOVE THIS!
    Cynthia W.

    I've been here several times throughout the years. I am surprised I never reviewed it yet! A group of us came for lunch on Saturday to celebrate my birthday! The service is always super pleasant. Staff very friendly. Food comes out very quickly each time! Granted, there was not as many parties when we came right at 11am. But even the other times when I come for dinner, I never feel like I am waiting forever for our food. There is a server walking around refilling our waters constantly! Never have to wave someone down to ask for anything. They are very attentive. Now the food, AMAZING! Tea Leaf Salad: Light to my stomach, but so much flavor with the tea leaves and the crunch of the nuts Moh-Hin-Gha (pureed catfish chowder): We love this one! The chunks of fish with the soft noodles. Yum. I just wish it came with more. Sesame Chicken: My friend gets this each time. He likes it a lot. I think it is okayyy. A bit too sweet for me. We did not get it this time, but I prefer the burmese style chicken curry. Put this over rice, and bomb! Burme String Beans: Lovely crunch with enough garlic and soy sauce. Black pepper Beef: Love all the black pepper to this. Nice and saucy and had good beef to veggie ratio. Burmese Garlic Noodles with duck: You gotta get it with the duck. The duck here taste delightful! Dessert: They gave me mango ice cream with a huge flare and had the entire restaurant singing happy birthday to me. We also got the Burmese Semolina Cake which had that nice rich coconut flavor. Moist and yummy. With some ice cream with it. Perfect!!!

    Burmese Garlic Noodle Nan Gyi Dok Burmese Pad Thai

    Came here on Super Bowl Sunday for dinner at 6:30pm with my bestie. There were plenty of tables. We stayed there until they close at 9pm and they were about 1/3-1/2 full. We ordered tea leaf salad, mango chicken and pad Thai. Everything was tasty and actually huge portion this time. They seem bigger than lunch portion. The tea leaf was already pre-made and not how it was many years ago when they mixed it in front of you. Overall, we love the ambiance there . We could sit there for hours and felt like we had our own little private booth. Great for date night too!

    Came here to meet up with a friend and her family and we had 4 babies/young toddlers. The food was great and I really liked how they had notations on what could be made vegan and vegetarian. The waitress was really helpful and they even gave really cute vehicle plastic plates for the kids. We all enjoyed ourselves very much. Parking is free out front. We tried the tea leaf salad which comes mixed already and was tasty, less tea than I've had before. I also go the yellow tofu which didn't seem completely chickpea. It had a firmer texture with maybe some pumpkin or potato. The egg curry was very flavorful and delicious and could be made not spicy. They have a big space with lots of tables and it feels very open. It's a pleasant environment

    Burmese Pad Thai
    Thinh L.

    This restaurant gives authenticity right off the bat. They put care into selecting the artwork on the walls and furniture you will be dining on. You feel like you traveled to Myanmar and you're having Burmese cuisine with the utmost quality. I really enjoyed the Tea Leaf Salad and it is my top contender for "I need to learn how to make this". The staff were very nice and they delivered our appetizers and entrees in perfect timing. Give this a go if you're in the mood for Burmese food!

    Every time I come here the food is better than the last. It's always amazing, but, at this moment, I feel like this may be the best thing I've ever eaten. Wow. This place is truly remarkable and I'll never come here again without ordering at least one of these. Wow!!!

    Ask the Community - Burma Burma

    Does the pet allow for the outdoor area?

    I don't think they allow pets.

    What Vegan options are there?

    most of their dishes don't use dairy products and animal products, however please call them to check ahead. We are strict vegetarians and we never had any issues with animal products, just remind them multiple times about eggs and what you cannot… 

    Are all meat dishes halal?

    Our beef, lamb, and chicken is halal.

    Is outdoor seating still available?

    They have outdoor patio but it's not always set up or in use

    My friend does not enjoy spicy food. Do you have a good selection of dishes without a lot of chili that will be ok for her?

    Most of our items you choose the spice level you want if there is any spice in the dish.

    Is the meat still halal? No signs on menu or windows?

    Yes the meat is still Halal and it is posted on our website menu and takeout menus togo, as well as when you dine in.

    Is the shrimp fried rice sweet?

    Sweet only with the shrimp, no sugars added

    How is it halal when you still serve pork?

    I'm not Islamic so I can't speak to the label as it relates to being served in the same proximity of pork products but my understanding of the "Halal" certification is specific to the type of meat it is, and the method of slaughter.… 

    Is the food served here halal?

    Yes. All beef, lamb and chicken items halal

    I'd like to try the garlic noodle. Would I be able to order it during lunch time?

    I think so! if you go to the YELP page, there is take out function to pre-order. Very pack during lunch time, come early or make reservation.

    Are you and Burma Burma in san Ramon sister restaurants?

    I do not know of a Burma Burma restaurant actually in the city of San Ramon. This restaurant is in Dublin, but on San Ramon Road - maybe that is confusing the issue?

    Is there a free parking lot? Thankyou!

    Yes, there is.

    Is it safe to eat here when you have peanut and shrimp allergies?

    Hi Alisa L ,This is Steven from Burma Burma, I would like to answer your question now. Yes, it is safe...you just let us know about your allergy food when you order. Then we can do everything for you.

    Are there options that are vegan/vegetarian friendly without fish sauce/chicken broth?

    Yes! They have a vegetarian menu and my favorite tea leaf salad can be made vegan- just let the person taking your order know.

Easily one of the best I've had--probably the only other one I've liked this much was at Rangoon Ruby in Palo Alto. The flavors were fresh and layered, with that perfect balance of crunch and tang. The Mint Chicken was another standout, fragrant and full of flavor without feeling heavy. I also tried the Lavender Martini and mojito, both beautifully presented but much too sweet for my taste. Definitely go for the food here and skip the drinks. For a first visit, it felt like the kind of place I'd come back to--warm service, vibrant dishes, and food that feels both comforting and alive.

Or when I take home left overs, I will put it in the fridge for the oil/fat to solidify and then scoop it out. Tealeaf salad is one of my favorite salads of all time but, it is a hit or miss - sometimes it's on point but a few times have been too salty. Over the years, it has gotten painfully expensive for the portion sizes they serve. Some dishes even cost more, but sides were taken out. You basically are paying more for your dish, but for less food than before the price increase. Tealeaf salad is now a whomping $17!!! In the 3 years I've been coming here, there have been 2-3 price increases. As much as I loved coming here, sadly, I do not think that it is worth it anymore.
