The reviewers don't lie about this wonderful little Burmese cuisine place. Friends have told us…read moreabout it, and the reviews tell a story too. The location in Loomis is a little off the beaten path (you think you are leaving town), and in a super small strip mall. Step inside and you find a cute little family owned restaurant that will make you wonder "where did I just get transported to?"... A few tables in the front room and a second dining area to the right. It is important to note that you MUST be patient! There is only the owner running the front of house here. She is doing everything. Super friendly, and being as quick as she can to get tables cleared, people seated, orders taken and served. She does all of this with the most wonderful smile and personality. You will immediately fall in love with her. Many of the diners on this particular night already knew her and appeared to have long standing relationships with the family. We came in on a Saturday evening around 5:15pm and the floor was packed. It remained that way until around 6:30pm. I would suggest coming in later in the evening so the 'regulars' can get in and out. Ok, so now on to the food and why the Green Elephant is such a standout. Everything is super fresh, and flavorful with great depth in the sauces. We started with the tea leaf salad, and pork lumpia. Then Panang chicken and spicy garlic pepper pork and an order of rice. We love spicy food, and requested such (she has a spice scale of 1-10). Our mains were a level 7 and that was sufficient to give us good heat without compromising the flavors. She will also bring you a small dish of chili pepper oil if you want even more heat. By the time we were finished, the floor had cleared, so we know now to arrive a little later. But, return we will !!!

A hidden gem in Loomis that truly feels like home…read more This family-owned Thai restaurant is open only for dinner, and you can feel the love in every detail. The owner cooks everything himself, while his wife warmly takes orders -- a beautiful, old-school partnership that instantly makes you feel welcome. The interiors are cozy and thoughtfully done, creating a calm, inviting atmosphere. The food is exquisite, clearly made with care and experience -- flavors that stay with you long after the meal. Yes, there can be long wait times, but it's absolutely worth it. This is not fast food; it's food made with heart. A place that reminds you why small, family-run restaurants are so special Highly recommended if you're in Loomis and don't mind slowing down for something truly memorable.

Came to My Burma with my boyfriend and his family for an early lunch. We had our pups with us and…read morewe got to sit outside! Our waitress was very friendly and offered our dogs watered and after getting our food, came and checked up on us even though it started getting pretty busy and packed. We did family style and got a few things to try! 1. Salt and pepper calamari 2. Platha and coconut chicken curry dip 3. Garlic noodles with tofu 4. Combination fried rice 5. Burmese chicken curry potatoes 6. Burmese style pad thai with shrimp 7. Garlic and chili shrimp 8. Lemongrass salmon Everything was delicious! I would say the platha and coconut chicken curry dip, Burmese chicken curry potatoes, and the Burmese style pad Thai with shrimp were my favorite out of the bunch. I would come back again if I'm in Davis!

TLDR: Excellent Burmese food -- get the Tea Leaf Salad, Sesame Chicken, Coconut Rice, and Pad Thai…read more Dogs welcome on the patio. Can't believe it took me this long to write a review for My Burma. Long overdue. The food is excellent and I keep coming back. A few dishes worth calling out specifically: the Tea Leaf Salad, Sesame Chicken, Coconut Rice, and the Pad Thai. Haven't been able to get to anything else on return trips. One note if you're a heat seeker -- the Pad Thai doesn't get very spicy, even when requested. I like extreme heat, so factor that in accordingly. Most people will find it perfectly seasoned. On my last visit I tried the black rice pudding with ice cream. Don't skip it if dessert is on your radar. Dogs are welcome on the patio, which is a great perk. One thing to be aware of: the gate can be a little tricky to navigate -- something to keep in mind if you or anyone in your group has mobility challenges. My Burma has my business. Highly recommend.

If you're in Folsom and haven't tried Burma Lite yet, you're seriously missing out…read more This place has become my go-to, and for good reason. The food is consistently amazing and packed with flavor. The tea leaf salad is a must. Super fresh, crunchy, and unlike anything else around here. The basil chili lamb brings the perfect balance of heat and flavor, and the eggplant is cooked perfectly every time. The sesame chicken is crispy and flavorful. It and the coconut rice balanced the spiciness of the lamb and eggplant perfectly. My wife likes to wash it down with a blue moon. I believe the traditional Burmese beer is similar. Everything I've had here has been solid, and you can tell they actually care about the quality of their food. If you're looking for something different from the usual spots in Folsom, definitely give Burma Lite a try. You won't regret it.

I tried the following: Tea Leaf Salad, Minted Jalapenos Chicken, Burmese Garlic Noodle (with…read moreChicken), and Burmese Indian Rice. The tea salad wasn't as flavorful as one I had elsewhere. I expected more mint flavor from a dish with mint in the name. All in all, no dish was bad, but was not really impressed by anything either. Service was good. Pretty good portions. Not somewhere I'd go out of my way for personally. However, with so many five stars reviews, definitely think you should give Burma Light a try if you're thinking about it!

We had the dogs with us, so we needed a place with outdoor seating…read more The review is mainly for the extra effort that the staff made to accommodate all of us. They moved around the tables to make sure we were in the shade. The waiter even brought out a container of water for my dogs. He later brought out a extra container of water. I'm not sure if they go through this much effort for everyone, but I really appreciate the effort. The food was good also. I got the poutine off the specials. It was great

Ginger Chilean Sea Bass - this is a premium menu item but I don't think it's worth it in my opinion. It's a bit small and doesn't stand out in terms of flavor. Garlic Noodle - it was good, portion is a bit small but I would recommend if you have a smaller appetite Tea Leaf Salad was delicious, fresh, and tasty. Coconut Chicken Noodle Soup was the star of the show! Creamy and flavorful broth with lots of toppings and textures. I would order this one again. Fried banana and mango sago-- can't go wrong with either of them!

A long time favorite of mine, Aung Burma has done it again!…read more My team at Diablo Valley Cremation & Funeral had take out there today. I was excited to introduce Burmese food to them and they were blown away. Everyone loved their choice and can't wait to try more. As always my tea leave salad and coconut rice was perfection.

Many of our team had never tried Burmese food but now they are hooked! The Garlic Noodles with Chicken and the Broccoli Beef were the dishes that reeled them in. Other items, including the Honey Walnut Shrimp, Tea Leaf Salad and Black Pepper Beef were just as amazing. So flavorful it was difficult to stop eating. Thank you to the amazing team at Aung Burma. Everything was ready and perfect when we arrived. We are coming back here again real soon to try more of your hospitality and delicious food.

Always a great meal at the Rice Barn!…read more The staff is super friendly and quick to serve you. The ambiance is casual, but it could certainly be a date spot because the food is that good - plus wine and beer and sake cocktails! The drunk noodles, yellow curry and kao soi are awesome mains.

Our Server, Lilliana, who was in training and did a good job. The restaurant has many options for Shared plates for small or large groups. We ordered Crispy Spring Rolls (with dipping sauce), Cashew Chicken (also crispy), Chicken with Fried Rice (with dipping sauce), and Drunken Lady Noodles with sautéed Chicken and Veggies. The food was delicious, perfectly seasoned and piping hot. This was my first time having drunken noodles and it won't be the last. The portions were generous, we could not finish it all! It's great to have leftovers! May and I connected through mutual friends on Yelp in So Cal and kept in touch through the years. Thanks, May, for the recommendation. Sincerely, Rosemary

The place was on a corner street. Parking seems limited and full so we parked on a residential…read morestreet. We got inside and it was pretty packed. We were immediately seated. We decided to get the pad thai, pork belly pad kraw prow, pork ribs appetizer, and gai satay. They first brought out the gai satay and it was delicious. The peanut sauce that went with the dish was super yummy. Then the pork ribs came out. There were only 4 ribs and a small side of salad . I personally thought it was pretty expensive for just four pork ribs, but the ribs were extremely flavorful. I would say probably the best thing we had even though every thing was delicious. After that they served us the pad thai and pad kraw prow. Both dishes were extended wly delicious. I would definitely come back to this place.

Everything is okay but the tom yum not hot enough for me. I don't know if Thai food is like that or just my family but everything is so sweet and we can't handle it. The pineapple fried rice is okay, not sweet like the other food but nothing special. Overall everything is okay just not our family type of food

First time here, the service was attentive and friendly but I think our server was overwhelmed with…read moretables because she was messing up our orders :( Food was overall 3/5, but our order of pineapple fried rice and pad see-ew were our only 5/5 dishes. Our green curry, tomyum soup, and Thai iced tea were super watered down. The green curry tasted better but did not have a curry consistency at all -- it was very diluted. Overall ambiance was put together in the first room, but their expanded green carpeted room with backdrops could use some updating. I know that they are on the right track to expanding!

It's needed soy sauce I needed to ask for. It's also a bit oily. I don't eat that part. When she served me she put The Broccoli Beef on the side, so I scoop the meat and veggies on to the rice. For ten bucks, it's a great choice for me.

5 stars for friendly staff. 1 star for quality of food. Yes, this place is in a mall food court,…read morebut it's probably the nastiest food court meal I've ever had. I only had 10 minutes to eat, but I wanted something quick and wholesome. The fried rice was good. I paired it with the daily special, which today was chicken and green beans. The chicken is really salty, and it actually tastes like the meat may not be good anymore OR there's a funky sauce they're using. The green beans are okay, while some are sad and soggy. With this low quality of food, I doubt they'll last very long. I regret not ordering chicken teriyaki at Shogun. I hope they read some reviews and change up some of their ingredients and/or cooking methods. It's nice to have a variety of food at the mall.

Came here in May 2026 with a small group. Had the pad thai with chicken, the pad see-ew with…read morechicken, and yellow curry. The pad thai was rather medicore without any strong flavors. The small tofu cubes in the dish were hard and flavorless. Ntot a dish-ruining offense, but I must say that I didn't know tofu got that hard. Same thing for the pad see-ew. It was quite dry and had a distinctly burnt flavor the first time it came out, it tasted like ash in my mouth. The chicken was rather burnt. The staff was friendly and kindly replaced it for me, but the burnt flavor remained. I think the pan they're using must have been burnt. I didn't think the yellow curry was notable. The thai tea is good. The restaurant itself is friendly and cozy. Water is from the tap.
