    Tea leaf salad with lettuce
    Linda T.

    Dagon's tea leaf salad and pumpkin stew will always be my favorite combo. The crunch and flavor from the salad and hearty lamb stew on rice (a bit dry today) compliments each other very well. The rice noodles with chicken is also very good and flavorful. Although we did feel a bit rushed at the end of our meal, the food makes up for it.

    Just going to leave this review with a picture but maybe i am the only one expecting more since there were other patrons who seemed to be enjoying the food....

    Burmese Lamb Curry with Potatoes
    Sherene H.

    Dagon is delicious and flavorful. There's actually a parking lot in back people don't know about. There's also parking in the front if you get lucky on the street. This place is BYOB, they have bottle opens and wine glasses for you. Another positive is there are vegan options! The server even let us out the bottles in the fridge. We ordered a bunch of food to share but my favorites are the lamb curry, samusa, and Dagon tea salad without the fish sauce. I just love the textures in it. Overall, this is an excellent place for Burmese food, and I hope they always stay in business!

    Wow, this was such a flavorful and delicious meal! This was our first time at Dagon and we're already planning our next visit. We had the appetizer sampler plate, Burmese curry, coconut curry, pumpkin stew, nan pya dok, and coconut rice and our group loved all our dishes. When we first sat down we asked the waitress what her favorite dishes were and she said she could pick just one as she loved them all. She was so right. We can't wait to come back and try even more new dishes!

    Charged higher than what the menu price was listed. The lamb curry with potatoes stated $18 on the menu. But I was charged $16 + $3 for the lamb curry. They obviously knew what they were doing. It doesn't matter if it was an extra $1. When I confronted her about it, she kind of just walked away, thinking I would just pay anyways because it's just a dolar. Regardless of the amount. You do this to 100 people, that's an extra 100 dollar (plus percentage of tax and tip), It's fraudulent. I shouldn't even have tipped her 15% because the service wasn't even that great. Lamb curry was good but you can get good lamb curry in any other south/southeast Asian place. The tea salad was alright, don't understand the hype. It feels like it was missing dressing and flavor. Unlikely to return.

    Crispy Tofu with Salad Filling
    Christine G.

    I love restaurants that have cuisines that you can't always find easily. Dagon is one of my favorites! It's owned by the same people that own Rangoon and both serve excellent food! I wish Dagon was still open for lunch because it's closer to me but I still come here often. Just visited again for dinner with a friend that was in town. He's vegetarian and so we thought of this place because they have lots of options! I can't get enough of the fried Crispy Tofu with Salad Filling. I literally order it every single time! Both versions of the Tea Leaf Salad are fantastic and you can't go wrong with their curries and noodles. I also highly recommend the Kabat I like mine vegetarian for a healthy dinner. I know I was just there, but after writing this, I want to go back right now! Service is always friendly but sometimes dishes can take a while to come out. It's worth the wait!

    Lamb Coconut Curry. This one goes great with rice and palata!
    Matthew L.

    What a great experience! This was my first time trying Burmese food. We went on a Thursday night around 8 pm. Street parking was limited, right outside of the restaurant. We started with the Mango Salad. Very refreshing but overpriced (15 dollars!) We ordered lamb coconut curry, Burmese fish curry with red snapper, coconut rice, and palata. Plenty of food for 2-3 people. Both curry dishes were 5/5 amazing. The fish curry was great over rice. Palata was so light, great for dipping in the coconut curry. We ended getting two orders! Place is BYOB. Service was prompt. Definitely would go again!

    I'm not sure if I've ever had authentic Burmese food, but based on other cuisines I've had from the region, I suspect they really tone down the spiciness for Western palates. Thankfully I'm not a huge fan of spicy, so everything was quite tasty. The golden fried tofu, samosas, and tea leaf salad were very tasty. For an entree, I had the Burmese Lamb Curry with potatoes, which was also very hearty and flavorful. Street parking is usually available, and they are BYOB, which is always a plus. Service was very good, but they need to clean the tables better.

    Tea salad, spring rolls, platha combo, fried calamari.

    Will you be open on Monday, December 26, 2022? Are you BYOB?

    Do they serve alcohol?

    No, they don't. But they accommodate for BYOB!

    Do they use MSG in their food?

    There's nothing wrong with MSG that isn't wrong with salt. No worries.

    We would like to order take out from Dagon, but we can't find their current menu online (they don't have a website that appears functional). Anyone have any suggestions? Mahalo.

    I think you should be able to find their menu on on if the food delivery app .. like bite squad or Uber eats but don’t order off these unless you are okay paying about $3 or $4 more for each dish than it costs to buy directly from Dagon...… 

    I'm trying to make a reservation for tonight at 6pm but I can't get through. Is there another number I can call?

    Closed on Sundays now

    Do they have drinks available? n/a? do they have non-alcoholic or no?

    BYOB

    I am trying to make a reservation, but my phone does not go through. Is there a different number for Dagon (or another number)?

And might I note, this review is coming from someone of Thai ethnicity, who grew up eating home cooked Thai food, knows how to cook Thai food, and visits Thailand very frequently. When I first dined in this restaurant they had just opened about 5-6 years ago and to be honest, I was disappointed with the food that I ordered. However, at the time I assumed it may have been attributed to the fact that they had just opened so they may have been just getting their footing and figuring things out. I'm so glad I gave this place another try again years later because everything was SO delicious and very authentic tasting. As someone who grew up eating home cooked Thai food, I personally dread going to a Thai restaurant and discovering that they over sweeten dishes or add ingredients that aren't typically found in an authentic Thai dish. This place does everything right! I came during lunch around 11:00am and while the seating is limited, the staff was very attentive. I ordered pad kee mao (drunken noodle), kratiew leauy (boat noodle soup), som tum (papaya salad - Laos style), and pad krapow. The stars of the show were definitely the boat noodle soup and the drunken noodle. The drunken noodles were cooked to perfection, tasty, and had that smokey, charred, wok flavor which made the dish stand out. The boat noodle soup had so much depth and flavor - the best on island, hands down. The papaya salad (Laos style) had that tangy, salty, sweet, crunchy, funky, and spicy flavor that reminds me of my mom or grandma's papaya salad. I can't wait to eat here again when I'm craving a great Thai meal!

Looks like this place has regulars and for good reason, their food is awesome. Highly recommend this place.
