Are you not-normal like me, and when you see the name Htaw Metta, you think it looks like an…read moreanagram word puzzle? Perhaps the words got rearranged, and we are supposed to put them in order to solve a clue. No? Well, sorry to bother you -- I'll leave you to sit with your normal thoughts. But if this name has vexed you like it has me, then the first paragraph of this Yelp review is for you. Mostly, I visited Htaw Metta to confirm the pronunciation of Htaw Metta, and to make sure it's not a covert clue. The owner himself told me it's pronounced "TAW Meh-TAW," the H is silent. OK! What a relief to know. Now I can stop trying to rearrange the letters, and stop repeating "Hotta Metta" in my head whenever this restaurant comes up on Yelp. With the pronunciation squared away, I was able to enjoy my solo-dolo Burmese meal. It was 92 degrees outside, but the only thing I wanted was soup. Asian soup hits differently, and I feel like you can eat Asian soup in any weather. So I got a steamy bowl of ohn no khao swe, which is a coconut and chicken curry soup. I've never had it before, and the vermicelli noodles were a touch more cooked than I prefer, but maybe it's made that way? This was my first Burmese food experience, so I knew nothing. I just sat down and ordered the dishes that looked the most Burmese and the most popular. The soup was delicious and had lots of things in it: a hardboiled egg, green beans, some sort of cake (fish cake?). I also ordered the Burmese samosas, because they sounded great. Little fried triangles of dough stuffed with potato! I was the only person dining in Htaw Metta for a while, because I was there for an early dinner. But soon after, a family came in, and then a couple, and Htaw Metta was poppin'. That made me happy to see lots of people in there. Before they got busy, though, the owner came to chat with me about all kinds of things. The service is excellent and quick, and the restaurant itself is cute and colorful. This is yet another great restaurant in my favorite adopted neighborhood of Nora.

I want to give them more stars, but the ordering process, and what food I ended up with was a confusing mess. There was no one in the place when I went. I wanted to order and take it home. I wanted chicken lo mein but ended up with chicken pad Thai as well. I simply asked that they not put fish sauce or oyster sauce in my food, and she thought I ordered both meals. After they tried to fix it, which they really didn't, I just wanted to get out of there. I didn't get an apology, and felt like it was my fault. It was odd and uncomfortable. I thought she understood what I was asking but there is clearly a language barrier. She didn't repeat my order after wrote it down. I will make sure I ask that they do that next time. The dining area looked tidy and clean enough. The plastic menu was a bit sticky and they didn't have any paper to go menus. The food is just OK. The noodles were chopped up and mangled. I barely had any chicken in my meal. The pricing is what I expected considering inflation, and the amount offered for the price was fair enough. Regardless, I don't think I will be going back. My search continues.

There was only one guy working the floor but we still got good service. It was busy for a Tuesday night which was good for them this place deserves to be busy! There was relaxing music with a calming slideshow of a reef playing. Here's what we ordered Shrimp tempura 8/10. 4 pieces and comes with sweet chili sauce. Pretty good for a restaurant that doesn't specialize in Japanese food. Tea leaf salad 9/10. Good flavors, slightly spicy, good addition to have at the table. Dry beef salad 10/10. So yummy. Flavors were great and if you ask for it spicy it will be SUPER SPICY so be warned lol. It had a good pepper and cilantro flavor. One of the best things we got. Baby pork ribs 9/10. You get a lot of ribs for the price. They're a little on the dry side but they pair very well with rice and veggies. Gailan 10/10. This was the best thing we had! So good and necessary to add freshness to all the spicy and flavorful dishes we ordered. It's chinese broccoli stir fried with garlic. Very good. Kway teow with chicken 6/10: good flavors but too sweet for my taste. Kungpao chicken 9/10. the chicken was super crispy and delicious. It was a little spicy and sweet. Mango lemonade 10/10. So good. It comes with a lime slice that makes it even better when you juice it with your straw. Overall great food will be back to try more items. Make sure to order sides of rice to go with everything as it is not included. A lot of the saucier dishes skew on the sweeter side. Love this local spot!
