    Very unique cuisine, I really enjoyed everything. The soups were great, the desserts were delicious. If you're looking for something new and different, you'll definitely like this place.

    I was sad when the Thai place that was in this spot closed but not as much after trying the Burmese food here. We came here a few minutes after they should've been open but the door was locked so we hung around the area and came back 15 minutes later. Place is small and cozy, only has a handful of tables that seat 2-4 people. My friend and I ordered the Kyae Ohh Garlic Noodle (dry) which came with a side of soup and the Chicken Tapioca Soup that I requested to have noodles put in. The garlic noodle is a little bland by itself but the table has a lot of sauces that you can use to spruce it up. My friend use the side soup to dip the noodles which made it very good. I ordered the Chicken Tapioca Soup which I think normally doesn't come with noodles but I wanted a heartier lunch and they were very nice about me wanting to add noodles. The soup is the thick consistency and flavorfulness I've been searching high and low for in a noodle dish I had in Vietnam called Banh Canh Cua and I finally found it here (with chicken instead of seafood). Overall they did not skimp on the portion size because it seemed like never ending bowls for both of us. I will definitely be back.

    Cute cozy restaurant! Intimate space. Four tables there; 2 4 seats and 2 2 seats. 2 different menus, Burmese Japanese food. Ordered from the Burmese menu. I was with a group of 3 including myself. The seats were comfy! The staff is super nice, we took a while to order and they didn't rush us. We ordered chicken biryani, mohinga, chicken tapioca soup, fried tofu, papaya salad & picked tea leaf salad. Papaya salad was spicy and sour, picked salad was spicy! Noodles and rice dishes were good!

    What a pleasant addition to the neighborhood. Small and cozy seating area. Lots of take out orders being placed in person and on the phone. The staff was warm and helpful in assisting with choosing dishes. The tea leaf salad had lots of depth and texture, I really enjoyed it. It had layers of peanuts, mung beans, dried shrimps and crispy garlic chips. The tomato's and citrus really perfected it. The garlic noodle stir fry was delicious, called Kyae Ohh Garlic Noodle on the menu. It had lots of protein, chicken dumplings, fish cakes, and quail eggs on a bed of delicately prepared noodles (similar to angel hair). Do not miss out ! They also have a Japanese menu including sushi but you can get that any where in the area. Burmese not so much, happy exploring.

    This place took over a long-standing neighborhood hole in the wall Thai spot, so I decided to check it out since there aren't many Burmese places around. I wasn't sure what to expect since Burmese food is pretty rare, but the coconut noodle broth was very, very subtle in flavor. If you prefer bold, flavorful soups, this dish probably isn't for you. It also seemed like some ingredients were missing--both from the listed description and the photo, like the egg and chickpea crisp. What I got was just noodles, a few chunks of what seemed to be curry chicken, some cilantro, and a pint of broth with bits of onion. I'll come back to try the tea leaf salad since that's what they're known for, but the noodle dish was pretty disappointing, especially since it was listed as one of their most popular items.

    A much needed & very welcome addition to the neighborhood! Overjoyed would be an understatement for my fiance, who has been craving mohinga. Given there's only a handful of burmese restaurants throughout NYC, having one right in Brooklyn is a blessing! Burmese Harp seems to have opened fairly recently, but we saw a good number of diners within their small and intimate restaurant. One things for sure - they're authentic. For table service, only Burmese dishes are available, but takeout offers some Japanese items. I'd only note - please be patient, as it's a small mom & pops shop, and they make the food to order. My fiance & I ordered their Mohinga ($11.99) and received our order in about 15 minutes. The fish soup is soo deeply savory, and it's not fishy at all. For spice lovers, highly recommend adding a scoop of their dried chili flakes. Toppings were generous with the fried chickpeas & egg, and overall portions were good. We finished off with the Banana Suji, which tastes a little bit like a banana sponge cake. Can't wait to be back to try other dishes, and would highly recommend for anyone looking for an authentic Burmese experience. Cash & card are both accepted. Inside seating fits about 12 people total.

    Ordered a lot on the menu so I can try all the different type of burmese food as there's not a lot of burmese restaurant here in Brooklyn. Service is great and clean. It's a small shop where there's a few tables. I love their fried tofu and burmese tea and their garlic noodles. Will definitely try again as the food really did hit the spot.

My friends and I ordered the ozakaya donburi set, chicken karaage curry, kaki fried and a5 fried rice. The fish was buttery delicious. Loved how they serve a hot broth at the very end of your donburi set. Save some rice at the end for a nice experience to end your meal. The a5 was fatty and the karaage was fried perfectly. The restaurant was very busy when we went on a Saturday afternoon. The back dining area was crowded and very full. Our food came out quickly and i will definitely be back try some of their uni dishes. Highly recommend their donburi sets.

The tables are a bit small and tight though, so they brought out our food in courses. We started off with the Kaishin Don ($45), which was perfectly plated over a bed of rice. This one came with a good amount of uni, which was much appreciated. Then we had the Ozakaya Donburi Set ($49), which is such a fun one. You have a raw egg to mix into your seafood bowl accompanied with some pickled veggies and sliced sashimi. Once you've ate more than half your bowl, you can get a broth that finished cooking your fish and turning the rice into porridge. The broth is savory and tangy, which gives it such a nice and refreshing flavor. We enjoyed both of these dishes a lot and it was fun to make your own handrolls. Then came the Mentai Pasta ($19), which is sadly one of the worst things I've ever ate. Not only was there barely any Mentai flavor, but the mayonnaise completely overpowered everything. I couldn't get over how I might as well have ate a spoonful of mayo on its own; that's how rich and heavy this dish was. The bacon was overcooked as well but somewhat cut all the mayo. I even tried to add some soy sauce but there was no saving this pasta. We ended up tossing the rest of the dish and I am not one to waste food. I even tried to complain to the waitress but she just ignored it. It was unfortunate because the other dishes we had were amazing. Luckily we were still able to end on a good note as we ordered the Oshiruko ($12) for dessert. This came with two scoops of matcha ice cream, grilled mochi, and red bean. Everything went well together and the matcha was strong. It's wild how good and bad some of the dishes were here. Definitely stick to the sushi and rice bowl dishes and whatever you do, DO NOT order the mentai pasta unless you love mayo.

It's been open for a few years, so clearly it has a good enough formula to keep the neighborhood happy. I have been here once before, but returned last week after dining several meals at Tomoni in Jackson Heights. Apparently, the owners are friends. Nonetheless, I needed to make the comparison. After my first few bites of their Tora Don and Chirashi Don, it was clear that this restaurant has the better quality seafood. Each slice of sashimi had vibrant colors, clean taste, and the proper texture. Tomoni is not bad, but fall slightly short of this caliber. With that said, there is an even farther gap between their rice quality. Though Tora is very good, Tomoni produces nearly perfect texture and acidity for my taste buds. Other than the best omakase restaurants in NYC, Tomoni shines as one of the best versions of sushi rice in the five boroughs. Service is good and space is cute. If I have a craving for some decent Japanese food, I would drive 20 minutes here for a meal anytime.

Food: 3/5 I'm a huge sushi fan, so I was excited when I saw a deluxe sashimi set on the menu. Unfortunately, it didn't quite hit the mark. The scallop was thinly sliced and lacked the rich texture I was hoping for. The salmon and other cuts were decent, but short and oddly shaped--chunky yet small, which made the whole presentation feel a bit off for something labeled deluxe. We also tried to branch out and ordered the short rib entree. For $21, it was shockingly small--definitely a single-person portion, not sharable. I added extra ikura to a salmon donburi bowl for $2, but it was barely a teaspoon's worth--just enough to say it was there. Oddly, the salmon slices in that bowl were thinner than the sashimi we had just eaten, and overall, it left me still hungry even after sharing a maki roll. Lastly, my husband ordered a green salad, which somehow took the entire meal service to arrive. When it finally came, it was just plain romaine, cucumbers, radish, and dressing. For a dinner that clocked in at over $150 (after tip), we definitely left underwhelmed. Service: 3/5 This part wasn't bad, just confusing. We were seated quickly, but the pacing of the meal was strange. Our seaweed salad and soups came out promptly, but the green salad came last, after the hot dishes and nearly after my husband finished eating. Also, a small thing--but when I'm paying $16 for four oysters, I want to know what kind they are. The menu just said "West Coast oysters," but our server couldn't tell us the variety or origin. Not a huge deal, but it added to a general lack of polish that didn't quite match the pricing. I don't think I'd return. For the price, there are better sushi options in Brooklyn with higher quality, better portions, and clearer service. Still, I appreciate new spots opening up in the neighborhood, and I'm always happy to try something new. Hopefully they refine the menu and service with time.

We started with the salmon belly carpaccio which I'd say isn't really a carpaccio because the salmon isn't sliced as thinly as you'd expect. But! I mention that just to set expectations. Nomenclature aside, it's an excellent appetizer. Served in a truffle and ponzu sauce, the salmon is lightly seared which yields two different textures to the fish. It practically melts in your mouth. Highly recommend this dish. For my entree I went with the trio don, which is 6 pieces of sashimi served over your choice of plain or sushi rice (sushi rice for me). The fish was fresh and flavorful. The portion was perfect for me. My boyfriend ordered a yellowtail roll and enjoyed that as well. We also shared a carafe of the cold house sake. I'd definitely come back and try more items on the menu. It's great for sharing and trying new dishes. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the prices were very reasonable.
