Had lunch there yesterday. Dry curry swai and ginger salad are great. Service was outstanding!!

I ordered online for pickup. Staff were friendly. The taste of food was good. Despite the very small portion of rice, the rice was very flavourful & very delicious. The Burmese mix vegetables Curry tasted good as well. I felt that the prices were a bit exaggerated and should be lowered to attract a bigger segment of Davis students. read more

The noodles are really good here and the servers are very nice. I generally like food spicier than your average bear, and the spicy noodles were spicy enough that I did not need extra chili oil. read more

Eaten a few more times. Some dishes have been hits. Some have not. My last, Mango Chicken, seemed to have the gnarliest most gristled chicken I think I've eaten in a long time. Kind of made for a bad experience. Hopefully it's a one off. The kitchen also apparently closes 15 minutes before the restaurant closes so get any dessert orders in early! read more

We take out so the service and ambience issues are not relevant in this review. The vegetables ( beans, cabbage carrot) are barely cooked. One has chew them like raw food. read more

Love, love the green tea salad. With another entree, plenty of food to share for two people.

What a gem! We lucked out that Burma Eats opened in Davis. Everything is made in house, fresh, delicious and service with a smile. The tea leaf salad, fiery tofu and plata are not to be missed. Let's support diversity in our community and give it a try. read more

Spectacular Burmese food. In 2 visits have tried the coconut noodle soup and the Tea Leaf Salad, both were unique. I tried the salad at the recommendation of the server and it did not disappoint. Wonderful presentation and preparation, you can't go wrong with this dish, flavorful complementary combination of various nuts/greens. More impressive in my mind (especially on a cold day) however was the soup. A spectacular spice combination exists in this soup. Sort of a meeting of Thai and Indian flavors. Not too spicy, just perfect. Truly one of the best tasting soups I have found. Can't wait to return and further explore the menu. read more

My Burma - Coconut Chicken Noodle Soup - Burmese Near Me - Davis, California

Outstanding food. I got a ginger salad and it was the most unusual and delicious dish I've ever had - wow!

Restaurant is well located. Friendly staff and open concept space with outdoor seating as well. Food was delicious, especially recommend the lamb curry, mint leaf chicken and garlic noodles. Service was attentive and excellent. Even though they were very busy. A favorite stop when in Davis. read more

Tried this place for the first time and ordered the mango tofu. It was mediocre. The tofu was firm and there was lots of it, but it hadn't absorbed much flavor from the mango sauce. There was also way too much onion. There was at least half an onion (sliced) in my dish and it was still very crisp, only lightly cooked. No one needs that much onion. Ever. Otherwise, the sauce was good and so too was the mango. read more

We had spectacular food at Burma Eat, we got the special lamb dish and the Burmese rice noodle dish. They were so delicious, the best dinner I have had I have had in a long time. This might be the best food in Davis. read more

i've lived in davis for 5 years and this has easily become my new favorite restaurant! the service is always so good and so attentive. We've come here between 5-10 times and have yet to find anything we don't like. The lemon and paprika lamb, coconut chicken soup, platha, eggplant curry, and mango shrimp are a few of our faves! Seriously so good! read more

My Burma - Lemon and Paprika Lamb is so good! Super tender. Amazing with the Coconut Rice! - Burmese Near Me - Davis, California

Amazing food, great cocktails, good service, can't speak to ambiance because we are outside, but will definitely go here again.

Everything we ordered was delicious including the coconut rice. Thanks for a wonderful meal My Burma! We'll see you again for sure.

Went out to try this place with friends last Sunday, at around 6pm to beat the dinner rush. Most of the food we ordered were bland and had little to no taste. So I'd say that the food was mediocre at best, but they don't seem to live up to their price points. As for customer service, we were ignored for the most part except for one kind waitress that was willing to help. The restaurant wasn't even busy nor crowded at all. Dishes were also dirty so we had to ask for replacements. Then as we were waiting for our food to be served, we noticed that the appetizers were ready. However, there was a group of waiters and waitresses gathered at the counter just talking. They knew we were waiting for our food, but they didn't bother to serve them until it got cold. I also couldn't help but overhear them belittling customers behind their back. They only started moving when the restaurant got busy. Overall the food was decent. Though I wouldn't come back because the food quality doesn't justify the price. Also because the waiters and waitresses appeared to be ignorant in good customer service etiquette. read more

3 stars for the tea leaf salad. We wanted to find other dishes to like but were unsuccessful. Mango shrimp was soggy with mango sauce that tasted like baby food, we couldn't even eat it, the flavor just didn't seem right. Description said it came with broccoli but it's really just a garnish. If we return we will just stick with the pai tai noodles and salad. I give up trying to find a protein dish I like. Tried the lamb (which didn't taste like lamb), mint chicken (overly seasoned and spicy not in a good way), and a couple of shrimp dishes that were just blah. The pai tai flavors are good but I can't help but notice the pool of oil in the dish.....what I don't understand is the prices. $21 a dish should satisfy your taste buds but it just doesn't. I'm thinking the popularity of the restaurant has brought the quality down. Our server was very polite and replaced the shrimp dish for us, inside is very loud but outdoor seating is nice. I just had to post because for $100 we could have gotten better food elsewhere and wouldn't have gotten tummy aches. read more

Food and service NEVER disappoint. I have tried a good portion of the menu and everything has always been delicious. Do not skip the Tea Leaf salad, I could eat that salad every day! read more

Decided to try My Burma after a long day cleaning out a family home. Got the Burmese Fried Rice with the Chili Lamb for takeout. This was an excellent combination. The fried rice was flavorful on its own and the braised lamb was tender and juicy. The jalapeños in the lamb sauce were easy to eat around to make this dish as spicy or mild as you like and the mint (not mentioned on the menu) took this lamb dish to the next level. This was an excellent takeout experience. Will definitely eat at My Burma again and again. read more

Great ambience and taste. Lovely tea leaf salad, fresh coconut, green beans and tofu dish along with the lamb. But a bit on the salty side. Hence the 4stars. recommend ask them to go light on salt if you are used to eating home during covid. It's pricey but a nice option away from Chinese any Thai food. Great service. Mostly students. Safe with protocols and distanced outdoor seatings. read more

Five star for opening Myanmar restaurant in Davis, it's not really Myanmar food, it's more on the taste for westerners. Went there twice because wanted to savor Myanmar dishes but both times disappointed. read more

More of a 3.5-4. Great patio seating, great service and great menu choices. My favorite food items were the Eggplant Curry and the Tea Leaf Salad. The lemongrass tofu tasted as if they just put the same sweet chili sauce from the shrimps on them. Absolutely no lemon grass flavor at all which was disappointing. I could do without the sticky sweet sauce everywhere. Overall the food and experience was good and I would comeback again. read more

My Burma - Eggplant Curry, Lemongrass Tofu, Basmati Biryani Rice, and Garlic and Chili Shrimps - Burmese Near Me - Davis, California

The food is fantastic! (Tea leaf salad especially), everyone is super nice and the outdoor ambiance is beautiful in spring.

Great food. Always consistent in quality. Tasty vegan/vegetarian options too! The tea-lead salad is SO GOOD.

Best tea leaf salad I've ever had, and I've had my share of tea leaf salad! I can't wait to try more of their delicious sounding dishes!

2nd time here and it doesn't disappoint. Delicious food and wonderful service. It's very close to the Arboretum so we went for a stroll after lunch. read more

Sadly disappointing. I Got my dinner to go, so I didn't check before I left. They forgot the chicken on my ginger salad, there was hardly any lettuce which was a problem when I added the nuts and garlic, it was so over powering it was terrible. The honey chicken was good but not a lot of meat for $15. Sadly sadly disappointing. read more

Came here on a week day for lunch twice. We were seated prompted and our food came out in about 10 mins after ordering. Dishes were amazing, I plan to visit again! read more

LOVED this place and will definitely be going back. I especially loved the pad thai and the coconut rice.

Very unique and delicious food, great addition to Davis! Fermented tea leaf salad is a favorite. Staff is friendly and professional.

I came here on a Saturday at around 5:45 pm with a party of 10 (I have a big family!) and they were able to accommodate us immediately in the side patio. The place was busy but not crowded. They apparently don't do reservations, otherwise we would've made them. We were able to taste a plethora of food since all of us were eating family style: platha & coconut chicken curry dip, tea leaf salad, papaya salad, nan gyi thok with egg noodle, garlic noodles with bbq pork, mango tofu, lemongrass pork, burmese chicken curry potatoes, combination fried rice, and lots of orders of coconut rice. We also ordered eggplant with garlic sauce and the burmese chicken biryani but I think they forgot those two dishes in our order and by the time we finished the food that did come out, we were full so we just cancelled those missing dishes. Having ordered so many different dishes, there are definitely some strong ones and weak ones, so the menu as a whole is a little inconsistent. My favorites of the night were the platha & coconut chicken curry dip as well as the nan gyi thok - sooooo yummy. I thought the tea salad was solid but the papaya salad was a tad too sweet. The garlic noodles tasted great but it wasn't very garlic-y, it just felt like noodles with a yummy sauce that had some garlic in it. The chicken curry and the lemongrass pork were really nice to eat with the coconut rice, although I felt the latter reminded me of a lot of Chinese pork dishes I've had. I didn't enjoy the mango tofu and combination fried rice. I'd definitely come back and order the dishes I enjoyed! read more

Holy smokes. This was bomb. Pratha chicken curry something something. The perfect amount of flavor, we ordered coconut rice with it. Sorry, killed it before taking a proper photo.... read more

The cuisine at My Burma is described as "Burmese Asian Fusion". If, like me, you are somewhat "geographically challenged" when it comes to certain parts of the world, you may appreciate knowing that Myanmar (formerly Burma) is a Southeast Asian nation of more than 100 ethnic groups, bordering India, Bangladesh, China, Laos and Thailand. It would be easy to lump Burmese food in with what most people in the U.S. call "Thai Food". I discovered that Burmese cuisine has some distinctions that were displayed to good effect in the dishes I enjoyed at My Burma. For instance, Burmese curries make use of dried spices, in addition to fresh herbs and aromatics, and are often milder. The chicken Currie at My Burma is a wonderful diversion from either the Thai or Indian varieties I have eaten in the past. It has echos of both, but manages to be pleasantly different. An old "war horse" of Asian fusion menus - Lemon Grass Chicken -takes on a whole new flavor profile that left my taste buds dancing, and the coconut rice was among the best I have had. If My Burma lacks in any way, it is in the area of service. Although, the restaurant was not particularly busy on the night of my visit, attention from wait staff was hit and miss. read more

Came here today and really enjoyed all the dishes we tried - samusas, Burmese tempura, fried yellow tofu, rainbow salad, green tea salad, samusa soup and noodles. The texture of the rice noodles is springy, chewy and more like wheat noodles - delicious! We really enjoyed the flaky soft texture of the yellow tofu. The samusa soup had a perfect balance of flavor and textures, tangy, savory with fresh mint. Highly recommend and will definitely come back. Special mention for the tempura dipping sauce - perfectly sweet and spicy. read more

Came in with low expectations since I don't really expect much from Davis' food scene but was surprisingly pleased. Food was flavorful and spicy and everything I needed in a road trip stop on my way down to the bay area. Got a cocktail and could've done without that.. but again, what can I expect lol. If I'm ever in the area again I will be coming back! read more

Food is legit here. We used to go their sister restaurant in San Francisco, Burma Superstar. Hands down, best restaurant in the D.

This place really delivers on taste. The dishes are unique and flavor packed. I want to keep going back to try new things on the menu. They have a great outdoor patio. My only negative was that I think they are too heavy with the salt, but I will still be back. read more

We were celebrating our 21st wedding anniversary and we happened to be visiting our daughter at Davis so we thought we'd try something new. We've never had Burmese before so, why not? Well, we weren't disappointed!! We arrived somewhat late (about 8 pm) so we thought there probably wouldn't be a line but we were mistaken. Even at this hour, the restaurant was crowded and there were people waiting to be seated- the sure signs that the food must be good!! The restaurant was well lit with a welcoming vibe to it so we didn't mind waiting about 15 minutes to get seated. We sat at the bar which was the first available and we were ready to order immediately as we already looked at the menu while we were waiting. We ordered the Tea Leaf Salad, Garlic Noodles, and Mint Chicken which were all as tasty as we'd expected from reading previous reviews. But the best part of the evening was the service. Our server/bar tender, Jessica, was friendly and attentive from the start. She took our order immediately after we sat down and also gave us some tips while we were ordering which was nice. I noticed her pouring a drink that looked kind of like Thai Iced Tea and enquired about it. She explained that this was Burmese Milk Tea and, unexpectedly, offered me a small sample to taste. Although she was busy she also found to time to check in on us from time to time and even chat with us. We ended the evening with satisfied bellies and feeling like we'd made a new friend!! We'll definitely be back when we visit Davis again!! -Lawrence C. Mountain View, CA read more

Amazing food, amazing service- everything our waitress suggested was so good. It's now on my top 5 restaurants in that region

Food was absolutely delicious. Service was great. Nice place to get some lunch inside is kinda small.
