There is exactly one Burmese restaurant in Boston, so consider yourselves lucky that you get the joy of Burmese food in Vermont. I got the tea leaf salad and would have gone back to get more if they weren't closed on Sunday's. Definitely go check it out! They do close at 7pm, which feels a little early but I guess as long as you can plan around it, make it happen. read more

Lucked out when I found this place! Did not expect to find authentic Burmese food in VT! We had the tea leaf salad, dumplings (kind of a cross between a samosa and a dumpling) and a curry chicken bowl. All were amazing with good textures and mix of salty/sour/sweet/spicy. We ate outside on the picnic table. BTW, I'm Asian from New York City and this place could hold its own in NY for sure. read more

We were recommended this cute little spot and it's literally THE best Burmese food I've ever had. I was so into the food I had to Yelp it while sitting outside eating right now! We live in San Francisco, love Burmese food and have at least four spots to compare it to. Do yourselves a major favor and eat here. We shared the wontons and the pork potato bowl. The entire experience was amazing. Thank you!! read more

Cute little place with friendly service from the owners. All of the menu options are healthy and delicious, and they have great options for those with dietary restrictions. I absolutely recommend them for lunch, my only complaint is I wish they could be open more often. read more

Great food, friendly staff. We asked the owner to choose a few dishes, and they were amazing. Fresh, well-prepared, and really reflect the fact that they care about the food they're serving. read more

Came here for lunch when I was in the area a couple of months ago. I was surprised to see that there was a Burmese restaurant here, but also ecstatic as I love Burmese food. Turns out, this is the only Burmese restaurant in all of Vermont! I decided to get their tea leaf salad and their veggie tofu curry Burma bowl. Both items were pretty good, though I wish they had more options on the menu overall. Still, well worth a visit if you're curious about what Burmese food is like. read more

The best food we've had in Vermont (so far). We only had the falafel salad, but wow, it was great!! Love that it's gf, sf, corn free and vegan! But really loved the taste regardless. Wish they were open later. They close at 5. Not sure if that's a covid closing time or that's always how it is? read more

The best vibe, great family, delicious food! Burmese is a hidden gem, in these parts at least, and you don't want to miss it. Light fare, never leaving you slumped and full, but so much flavor. We'll stop in at Moonwink any chance we get!! read more

I should have taken a picture of the dishes we picked but we immediately started gorging on them once we got them. The aroma when you walk indicates that there's some good eats to be had. Everything looked good and we didn't know what to order so we asked for some advice from the operators of what would be their favorite. We picked the Coconut chicken noodle soup and the Burma Bowl with pork curry. Both were very tasty and brought joy during these dark Covid days. On they way out we added some Burmese wontons and completed our tasty food chapter. We will find ways to go back. This is the first time I've left a review on Yelp despite finding it as a useful guide. It maybe because of a Covid causing me to do things I don't normally do. But also it's that good. read more

I've never had Burmese food before Moonwink, but I can now say that it's freaking delicious. In a town with pretty good food options, especially compared to a lot of other small towns in Vermont, Moonwink brings something completely new to the Manchester area, and boy am I glad they opened. Opened up by locals with deep roots in the area, the food is delicious and interesting. Who ever thought that rice, chicken, and kimchi with some spices would be incredible? Not me! But it is. The food is scrumptious. The prices are reasonable. And the service is delightful. There's no reason not to eat Moonwink at least once, twice, or three times a week. Take your friends. Take your parents. Take strangers. Do whatever you need to do to eat Moonwink. You won't regret it one bit. read more

Excellent and authentic! Wonderful couple owned and operated. Wish they'd move to westport CT, I'd be a regular. Don't miss this place. read more

Moonwink - Burmese Near Me - Manchester, Vermont

Definitely the place to grab a quick bite or low key dinner in Manchester. Super friendly owners, very helpful and a pleasure to talk to. The food is awesome as well. The falafel is super tasty, great salads as well. read more

Best curry ever ! Beautiful location, delicious food and great service! It was my first time trying Burmese food and now I'm a fan thanks to moonwink! read more

Broke a 3 month quarantine streak of no restaurants with a first meal here. First time trying Burmese. Maybe it was the novelty of having food prepared by someone else for the first time in ages, or the novelty of the food itself, but I doubt it.... I think this was just some of the best food I've had in a restaurant. Such an amazing mix of textures, playing off each other - crunchy and smooth, chewy and soft, and then the flavors, sour, sweet, delicate, powerful. So good. Will be back every time we come back to VT. read more

Had a long and tiring day at Stratton Mountain and we were looking for a dinner spot to cap a perfect day. Moonwink did that perfectly for us. There were four of us and each entree that we had was as good as the other. Perfect balance of spices and taste! I had coconut chicken noodle soup (probably the best khao suey I have ever had) while my friends had the Nan Gyi thok and the Burma bowl (veg and chicken). The tea was fantastic as well! If you are in the area then don't miss out on these gem of restaurant! read more

Can you believe there is a legit, authentic Burmese restaurant in Manchester, VT?!? Moonwink is run by a lovely couple (husband grew up in Manchester, wife is Burmese, and they met in NYC). They were so friendly and hospitable. We had the tea leaf salad and mohinga fish stew. Both dishes had incredible flavor. Having traveled to Myanmar earlier this year, the food was spot on!! Ambiance is clean, simple with some Burmese decor and mural. I would 100% come back again tomorrow. read more

Moonwink - Menu - Burmese Near Me - Manchester, Vermont

See all

Great place in downtown Manchester. It can be hard to find a variety of food here but this Burmese place brings the flavor. We had their pork curry with pea shoots and rice, great flavor and tender meat. Their dumplings, I'm not sure what they're called on the menu were clearly freshly fried and we probably could have had another order. They have this spicy red sauce that might have been the highlight, put it on everything you order. Very casual atmosphere, good prices, and a great story behind it being the only Burmese restaurant in VT. 10/10 would come again. read more

Amazing dinner-once again. It's always tough to decide which rice and sprouted peas curry to enjoy. While I love the tofu and vegetables, the chicken curry usually is my choice. But the pork curry is so delicious too. The coconut chicken soup is my favorite soup served in Manchester. The pickled ginger salad is great and our friend loves their Burmese falafel salad. The apps are unique and served their special spicy dip. The meals and soups are huge, so go hungry. Kate and I usually get two meals each from whatever 2 items we get. Take our word for it and try them out-you won't be disappointed. Another tid bit that makes a difference to us, being a family run business, they take Sunday off. That says much to us. read more

Delicious food! My most recent favorites are the tomato salad, tea leaf salad, and stuffed tofu. Nice to have vegan options!

Family owned and its a must stop for a unique food and atmosphere! The owners treat you like family and the food makes you feel right at home even if this is your first stop into the restaurant. Whenever I come into town I try to adjust my schedule to buy lunch here. read more

We drove up here from Boston for the skiing, but will easily make the drive back up again, just to eat here! The food was authentic and flavorful. It honestly reminded me a lot of the food I ate when I was staying in Northern Thailand. Additionally the service is excellent! The owners are very friendly. read more

Absolutely adore Wes and May, the owners, and the incredible food they create together. That fermented tea leaf salad is SO good, and the Burma bowls are a close second. My only beef is that i live in Atlanta, and they're all the way in Vermont! I visit Moonwink every night for dinner, in my dreams..... read more

This place is always one of the highlights when I'm in town. I love the chicken curry bowl. It's different, tastes amazing and I love eating there. I highly recommend it. Little hidden gem! read more

Very tasty, fast service. They brought the food outside to us at their picnic tables. The veggie Oh No Kou Swei was excellent.

A quaint place with friendly service! Had the fish noodle soup and the chicken noodle dish. Also, had the wontons which were probably my favorite. The pricing seems on the higher side and the quality is what I would expect. read more

Moonwink - Burmese Near Me - Manchester, Vermont

A welcome addition to Manchester. Come here if you appreciate culture and want some home cooked Burmese food with good ingredients.

If you've been in Manchester, VT and haven't had Moonwink yet, you're messing up! Go get a Burma bowl with delicious chicken or pork or tofu! It comes with rice and sprouted beans and a shredded cabbage salad. So good! read more

Rather tasteless unless you put hot spices on it ( which I don't like. Seemed like everything was cooked too quickly and the flavors didn't blend together. You know how a home made soup is better a day later but on the day cooked, it's not so good? Same idea. read more

On a business trip and decided to give this place a try. And thank goodness that we did! The food offers variety of flavors. Owners will make your experience even more beautiful. Chicken noodle soup is a must as well as their falafels. Will be returning next time around!! read more

Insanely good food and many vegan options! MUST GO if you are in the area. It is fresh, flavorful, and clearly made individually for each order (not mass produced) read more

Unbelievably fresh and flavorful vegan/gf options! The owners are so much fun to talk with. I would eat here daily, if I lived closer!

Wish I could give this spot 10 stars! Came in from out of town and this place popped up on Yelp and we decided to give it a try. Staff was very friendly and the food was amazing! Would recommend to anyone visiting the area & will definitely go again! read more

Not open!!!! WTF. Hugely disappointing! We drove over from Schenectady today ( Sunday March 24th) for lunch, just because we love their food. Surprise. Despite Yelp showing its open. It's closed. And no sign about why... read more

totally delicious food and marvelous welcoming staff with great recommendations! can't wait to come back.

So good. I stayed in Manchester for two nights and enjoyed my dinner at Moonwink on the first night so much, I came back on the second. The owners are also extremely nice people. I could not recommend it enough. ***For anyone else who is vegan, this place is great. You're not going to get a better meal anywhere else around. My biggest regret about my weekend in Manchester was that on my way out of town I went to a really bad place for lunch that I will not name; I should have just waited and gotten lunch from Moonwink, FOR THE THIRD TIME IN 36 HOURS." read more

A must visit when in Manchester. Really good food and amazing sauces. The stuffed tofu is also great. Two people running the place were super nice and helpful. read more

Just ate here for the first time, very impressed! The food was delicious, service friendly and fast, and great pricing. If you like any sort of Asian or ethic cusine then I can't recommend this restaurant enough. We eat a vegan diet and this restaurant had great options. read more

Incredible atmosphere and incredible food. With its affordable pricing and huge portions this place is a must visit when you come to the area. I'll be honest before coming to Moonwink I had never had this style of food before but after giving it a try I can easily say (and returning often multiple times in a week) I'm a huge fan. read more

I'm not a huge Yelp user, and haven't left many reviews in the past, but I'm glad to leave this one. Firstly, the owner was great to speak with. Very friendly, grounded, and easygoing. The food was tremendous. I spent over a month in Burma a few years ago, and I can honestly say that I rarely ate this well! I'm vegetarian so I opted for stuffed Tofu and a Curry Tofu Burma Bowl. WOW. I'm bloated as I write this, but I assure you it was worth it. They had just the right amount of spice, and the sauces were mouth watering. If you're in the area and appreciate authentic and delicious southeast Asian cuisine, you must go here. read more

Came here for lunch the other day and it was off the chain! The menu includes salads, rice bowls, noodles, soups and apps. We ordered the Pat Tok Jow, Burmese wontons, and with a nice chili garlic sauce and ate them up real quick. We also enjoyed Nan Gyi Thok, a chicken and noodle dish, that was so fresh and delicious. Can't wait to come by and try more as the place just opened. Also a great new place to have in the area for lunch and dinner! Also great for Vegans and veggie lovers! Go now and you will not be sad! Its the best! read more
