Burmese food is one of my favorite cuisines, so I was really excited to try this place. I ordered to-go, and the restaurant definitely feels way more catered toward pickup vs dine in. I tried: -Burmese spicy noodles with shrimp - The shrimp were really good, but there were only a few. The noodles were alright, but lacking any amazing flavors and there were far too many compared to the qty of shrimp. -Chili chicken - this was my fav, the dish was super flavorful and exactly what I hoped for. -Coconut rice - really good, and I love that they give more than just a tiny amount of the little coconut flakes on top lol. Overall a really solid option for Burmese takeout, but I wouldn't say it's one of the top Burmese restaurants in the city. read more

Ordered from Doordash. I ordered the Tea Leaf Salad & Vegetarian Samosa Soup,Mohin Gha (Puréed Catfish Chowder), and Platha. I really appreciate how Burma Classic took care in packaging the food. Nothing leaked and the salads were perfectly intact. The tea leaf salad was fresh and delicious! Full of flavor and fragrant, with a nice mixture of crispy, soft, and crunchy textures. I would definitely order this again. The catfish chowder was very good as well. My go to was Ar Har Ya but they closed so I've been on the hunt to find a similar level of quality. The chowder has less pureed fish than Ar Har Ya's but the flavors were pretty decent. Definitely sufficient to fulfill the cravings. And the soup was piping hot. The rice noodles, egg and chickpea crisps were packaged separately. I wish there was more noodles though. The samosa soup was very interesting to me. The tangy veggie soup really gets the appetite going. Also really like how the crispy samosa, veggies, and falafel-like fritter were packaged separately. I personally didn't care for the platha. It was quite thick and kinda sweet and gummy? I feel like it could be flakier and softer. My friend ordered the chicken set with basil chicken and the garlic eggplant, which I had also tried. Both were good flavorwise but the chicken was a bit dry, as it was chicken breast pieces. The garlic eggplant was done very well. The shape, color, and flavor were all on point. read more

I've ordered takeout from here twice recently, and the food has been a hit or miss. The first time, I ordered a tea leaf salad and Burmese style curry with beef. The tea leaf salad was a bit disappointing and not nearly as good as the tea leaf salads I've gotten at all the other Burmese restaurants in the city. But I enjoyed the Burmese style curry so much that I ordered it again a second time just a week later. This time, however, the curry was barely half filled, and the meat was dry and hard to chew. I also tried the pumpkin curry. The container was not even half filled, the curry was very watery, and there were only 3 pieces of pumpkin. Needless to say, I will not be ordering from here again. read more

I ordered through DoorDash and tried the salt and pepper calamari along with their garlic shrimp and eggplant. The eggplant was my favorite part of the meal and was cooked perfectly with a lot of that nice garlic flavor. The only thing that caught me off guard was the shrimp portion was pretty small since there were only 3 shrimps in the whole entree. The calamari was also a bit disappointing because it came out pretty rubbery and dry. The prices also felt very high for the portion sizes you get, which you can tell from the photos I posted. I also mistakenly assumed their entrees came with rice, which was my own fault when ordering because it would have paired really well with the eggplant and the sauce. Unfortunately, I was still hungry after the meal and the calamari ended up being basically inedible for me. read more

I ordered the coconut rice and the tea leaf salad with chicken added to it through a delivery app. Coconut rice 5/5: the rice was nice and fluffy with a strong coconut taste to it. Some places skip on the coconut milk when they make the coconut rice but Burma Classic does not. Pretty big portions size for the price. Tea leaf salad with chicken 3/5: I ordered the tea leaf salad with Chicken. The tea leaf part/dressing was very flavorful and not overpowering. Adding the chicken was the mistake! The cut of chicken that was added was chicken breast and it came very very dry. The chicken looked like it was pre cooked and then reheated/refried per order, which made it basically overcooked and dry. The salad portion was also on the smaller size. Overall a pretty good restaurant and I would order from them again. I would just skip out on adding chicken to the tea leaf salad next time. read more

Nan Pya Thoke - the rice noodles were a little hard and dry and all clumped together. The chicken curry sauce was flavorful and the chicken was very tender! The crispy noodles were very oily so they were a bit soggy (probably also from delivery). read more

I came here for a door dash order and when I picked up it smelled so good. I decided to browse through the menu. As I was browsing I came across some salt & pepper wings which I order at any restaurant the sweet & spicy wings and they had some burma noodles and tons of everything but the wings were calling me. I couldn't decide on which ones at first being both sound so good I went with the sweet and spicy wings and of course the Burma noodles. To my luck they were hosting a promo buy 1 get another free so that made me choosing this place for lunch all the more easier. The wings were so good and the fact that they come in flats even better that's my favorite of the wings and the Burma noodles with the sauce on the side drizzled on the noodles fire. I'm happy I came and tried this place will be back read more

got 3 dishes for take out: Burmese Style Red Curry chicken, Garlic Shrimp & Eggplant, Kebat chicken. flavor wise all good, but disappointing portions - the curry and eggplant boxes were both barely half full. not sure if portions are good if eating in or to pick up from the store directly, but more than once now when ordering through doordash this has occurred. read more

This review is about a recent delivery experience; I haven't been to the restaurant. We were craving Burmese soup and selected this restaurant based on its menu, ratings and pricing. There was a 2 for 1 deal and we had to try it. The food was packaged well. Their portions are very generous! The Samusa soup was not super hot when it arrived and although it was plentiful and fresh it was a little bit one note. I wish I could say something especially flattering about the palatha- it was not particularly flavorful and a bit doughy. 3 stars -Cheap and Cheerful! read more

We got food from here for a work thing. So this review is only for the food and not the service or ambience. I tried the chicken stir fry with peas and peppers. It came with a side of jasmine rice. At first glance, I was happy with the way they packed the food. They came in their own secondary containers inside the box. The food was very flavorful and satisfying. People were happy with their respective food orders and looks like we might be ordering from here in the future! read more

Delicious food and wonderful service Loved the tea leaf salad and garlic eggplant. Lots of vegan choices. The star of the evening was the black rice pudding read more

Order from Door Dash - They have a lot of Buy 1, Get 1 options on their menu. Generous portions. We opted for the Chicken Set 2/$24 with coconut rice, it also came with Tea Leaf salad. Super flavorful, not too spicy. Coconut rice has a great coconut flavor. The chicken was tender and juicy. We also ordered the fried Tofu, also tasty. I definitely recommend this place. I'll remember to take pictures next time. read more

I got to try Burma Classic since it was ordered as catering/takeout for an event I attended. I ate some fiery tofu and vegetables, vegetarian samosas, tea leaf salad, and jasmine rice. My favorite was tied between the samosas and tea leaf salad; the samosas were quite delicious and savory, and so was the tea leaf salad without being too bitter, although unfortunately the event organizers didn't label the fact that it had peanuts but I did enjoy the seeds and nuts overall. The tofu and vegetables were decent but somehow I feel like it could've been even more flavorful; however, it wasn't too spicy for me to handle as someone who can only take a mild level of spiciness. Pretty good food overall, I think it's a good option if you are vegetarian. read more

Love the salmon fusion! Although they gave us a very small portion. All the other dishes are OK.

The tea leaf salad was delicious! Very fresh and satisfying. The mango lassi was just a touch too sweet for my taste but I just diluted it with some oat milk and it was yummy. Plus, it came in the cutest glass bottle! I will definitely keep the bottle to repurpose. read more

This place is soooo delicious. We got the pumpkin curry with tofu, ginger salad, tea leaf salad, vegetarian samosas and salt and pepper tofu. Everything was fantastic. I really loved the pumpkin curry--the taste was excellent and satisfied that fall itch. The salads were also top notch and were very refreshing. The tofu was one of my favorites, and both the tofu and samosas were great with the sauce they provided. Would definitely order from here again! read more

This review is for Grubhub delivery. Amazing food overall. The yellow tofu, samosas, and pumpkin curry were everything I expected and more, I can't eat tea leaves for health reasons, but my wife said the tea leaf salad was a highlight. I tried the ginger salad. More ginger or some kind of dressing on the ginger salad would have helped a lot. As it was it was rather bland. Delivery was faster than expected. read more

If you're looking for a nice alternative to the popular Burma Superstar, this could be your place. Got the tea leaf salad, spicy noodles, and samusa soup. Very happy with the quality and taste. Spicy noodles are similar to a pad thai but with a bit more flavor due to the mild spice and has some veggies, making it a bit more balanced. Prices are on par to most other Burmese restaurants. read more

The food is really good I will always order from here everytime I am craving Burmese food

Thought this was the same chain as the other Burma Love or Burma superstar restaurants I was wrong!! The lamb was cold and tough, garlic noodles were so bland and tasted more tomato-y than garlic y, and the platha dip was nasty. Don't mistake this restaurant as in the same class or quality as the others! read more

So consistently good across the board. The get take out at least once every other week. The one dessert is a hidden gem, delicious.

The Tea Leaf Salad and the Tea Leaf Salad & Vegetarian Samosa Soup were pretty good. Not my favorite in the city but still satisfying. Fyi, this is a ghost kitchen/shared kitchen situation so you can't eat here. We ordered off of doordash. The Burma Classic Platha Wrap was overly greasy. read more

This review is for a takeout order. Overall, the food was pretty good. My favorite thing was the Spicy & Crispy Chicken because of the sauce but with takeout it wasn't very crispy, which I kind of expected. In terms of Burmese food in San Francisco, it's not my favorite but it's still good and very fairly priced! read more

The service and ambiance was fine. We got the tea leaf salad, mango shrimp, pepper steak, and the Nan Pya Thok. The mango shrimp and Nan Pya Thok were decent. The salad was good. However, the steak was dry and rubbery. read more

This is not a restaurant. This is a Burma Classic ghost kitchen for Uber Eats orders to be picked up. We eagerly planned to have lunch at Burma Classic, drove all the way there. Only to find that there was less than zero parking in the area and there was no restaurant, just a takeout kitchen. Yelp needs a new classification for places like this. read more

I ordered the pumpkin curry, coconut rice, and mango lassi. The pumpkin curry had good flavor but extremely extremely small portion (3 pieces of chicken and 2 pieces of pumpkin). The coconut rice was fragrant with a larger portion. The mango lassi came in a cute glass bottle and was good as well. However, I would not come back here just due to the small portions of the main entree, it was truly not worth the price. read more

Wanted Burmese for lunch and figured we'd try somewhere new. Was surprised to find out it was a shared kitchen (looks like a warehouse outside) not a restaurant. There are some stools on one side with a bar style area, but since all the food comes packaged to go, we decided to return home to assemble. After ordering at the kiosk, the food took only 15 minutes, so not a bad wait. The tea leaf salad was delicious! The Ohn-no soup was fine (lots of chicken but lacking in toppings, ok flavor, maybe 3.5). Will try here again with a different curry. read more

Burma Love is definitely top 3 favorite restaurants in SF. Also a must visit if you have a gluten free diet, foods are marked clearly as GF or can be made GF. They have comfort food classics, great Burmese dishes, and really good drinks. And a good selection for whiskey drinkers! read more

I door-dashed this and the food came fresh, hot, and so so delicious. I still dream about the meal once in a while...

I've ordered takeout several times from Burma Classic and everything I've tried has been excellent. I've enjoyed Burmese Spicy Noodle, Sweet and Spicy Chicken Wings, Minted Jalapeno Chicken, Sesame Beef, and Coconut Rice. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

This was a delicious new surprise in San Francisco for Burmese food. The Platha and chicken dipping sauce was amazing. The Mohin Gha was delicious. The Burmese Style Curry is a gem.

Zin and her team did such a fantastic job catering a recent weekend work function of ours! Our group size was 120 people, and we ordered according to the portion sizes specified on EZ Cater, and ended up with a lot of food leftover. The portion sizes are actually quite big, and we ended up donating several trays to a community organization afterwards. The food was absolutely delicious and our guests raves about it. Our favorites were the tea leaf salads, coconut rice, veggie platha, samosas, and chicken kebabs, and garlic noodle. The team was also very kind in providing us with a delicious semolina cake. They may be marked closed on Saturdays to dining, but they are open for catering. The communication with Zin and her team was prompt, reliable, and easy to work with. They provided serving utensils, silverware/plates (need to purchase this separately from them), and also custom placards notating the different dishes. Our party had several dietary restrictions, and they were able to give us an ingredient list for each dish to post during the day of the event. Hope to do business with them again! read more
