For Our Eighth Anniversary, we headed to a garden nursery My Wife wanted to revisit. And while wandering down the Highway, we yelped to find a Burmese restaurant. With an excellent reviews from Yelp, we decided to try them out. Their food was excellent, the service from Dylan was even better!

Coconut Rice
Stephanie H.

Every time I head home from Davis, I would spot this business and think I need to remember to try it next time I'm in the area. The day finally arrived when I remembered to stop here. I tried the following: Tea Leaf Salad, Burmese Chicken Curry Potatoes, and Coconut Chicken Noodle Soup, with a side order of Coconut Rice. I loved the salad, but the other dishes were average, not super flavorful, and won't be memorable to me. I will return for the Tea Leaf Salad. It's one of my most favorite things I've eaten.

Pumpkin Chicken Stew with Coconut Rice
Diane R.

We finally were able to try this Burmese restaurant in Davis. First I must say I was hesitant to go here as parking in central Davis can be bad, not here as there is a big free parking lot behind the restaurant. This restaurant is located next to Mikuni, it is not easily seen from the street but it is there. We arrived before the dinner rush and were immediately seated. There is a good sized indoor dining room, big windows with lots of light. There is also a large patio area with outside seating. The wait staff was attentive, fast and knowledgeable. We ordered the chicken curry and patha was delicious and a great start! The curry here is sweeter and has many tropical flavors. The lemongrass pork was savory and a little spicy. The pumpkin chicken stew was creamy and sweet. I look forward to trying more dishes.

Samosas

The front of the restaurant is visible from the street but has plenty of parking in the back parking lot. We arrived just before the dinner rush so there were very few customers inside. The ambience is casual and airy, with tall ceilings and plenty of space to move between the tables. We were greeted and seated quickly by the very friendly hostess. She took her time to explain the menu and gave us time to make our selections. We ordered appetizers, Samusas and Platha with Coconut chicken curry dip. The Samusas were large and perfectly cooked with a crispy exterior and very well seasoned potato filling and were delicious. They came with a sauce that was similar to sweet chili sauce but with a little something extra. Really nice addition. The Platha is like a variation of naan. The chicken was tender and the coconut sauce was smooth and creamy and pared really well. I really could come here just to order this, by itself! For our main course, we ordered the Pumpkin Salmon Curry with Basmati rice and The Lemon and Paprika Lamb, both with a side of basmati rice. The Pumpkin Salmon curry was incredible! There was so much salmon and the curry was thick and creamy with a really complex flavor profile. The lamb was so incredibly tender, I could cut the pieces with a spoon. I ordered it max spicy level and was pleased to see that the heat level was exactly what I ordered but did not overpower the flavors of the dish. It pared extremely well with the basmati rice. For dessert, we tried the Shwe Gyi Sanwin Makin (yeah, its a mouthful), with mango ice cream. This is a semolina cake made with coconut milk. Imagine if cornbread and coconut flan had a love-child and this is probably what would result. It worked really well with the mango ice cream. Overall, an excellent experience! The portions are generous, the service is fast and friendly and the flavors are top-notch! This one goes to the top of my Davis favorites list!

All time favorite restaurant in Davis! So wish this place had existed when I was a student here... Sat at the bar since it was a busy Saturday night at the restaurant. Ordered Lemongraass chicken that had tender pieces of chicken with crisp peas pods and red bell pepper in addition to Burmese eggplant curry. We also had a bowl of coconut rice and brown rice. Can't wait to return again soon! Thank you for continuing to serve up top notch food and fabulous meals.

Mango Chicken

I would always pass by and could smell the food as I walked past. So, I finally made my way to give this location a try. Now I come here often and really enjoy the food! It's not always super busy when I go but there are times where it's been packed. The wait time hasn't been longer than 5min during my visits and the staff always are friendly once you walk in the door. My servers are also really nice. Everyone is attentive and makes sure to check on you throughout your meal. Order: Samusas Mango chicken x Jasmine rice Sesame chicken Nan Gyi Thok Dry chicken curry (or try with Swai) -- which I tried for the first time tonight. Coconut rice Everything comes out pretty fast. The Nan Gyi Thok I definitely recommend, it's my favorite on the menu. I will continue to come back and be trying some new stuff soon! { Ig: Oohdearfoodie }

Sesame Chicken
Robert V.

What a great experience. Met my sister here for dinner (one of her favorite spots, my first time) and we had an amazing meal. The ambiance is difficult to explain, but I'll try! It was fancy, trendy, calm but energizing, and comfortable. Staff were friendly and kept our waters full. Food came out very quick and everything was delicious. We tried quite a few items! Garlic noodles with pork, good but was not our favorite. Pad Thai with shrimp, good and a favorite for my sister, my fourth ranked item. Tea salad, this was amazing - the salad was a great start and likely would've also been a great end to your meal. I loved it and will get this again, but third on the list. Pineapple rice, this was delicious! Close to the tea salad but wins with this item pairing amazingly with my favorite dish we tried. Sesame chicken - this was super good. I wanted to take another to go, but can tell the crispy chicken would be better freshly fried. It's also worth coming back for. I'll be coming back, and also trying more of their menu. They've got a sesame beef that I definitely want to try next time also. Recommend.

yea Tea Leaf Salad
Ester L.

tried the famous burmese tea leaf salad to-go and it was just okay. A lot of unique flavors but definitely not worth $20 for nuts and fermented tea leaf on lettuce. service was a little off putting but I didn't get a lot of time with the guy taking my order anyway. the ambiance is very nice and at a good location too.

Burmese Style Pad Thai
Ricardo G.

Wonderful service. Our server was very attentive and amazing in general. Burmese Style Pad Thai w/ Shrimp - 8/10 Shrimp was beautifully cooked, the sauce coated the noodles very well, and the peanuts added a nice texture. The sauce seems to be tomato based. The cabbage was nicely cooked, soft with a nice crunch. The lemon wedge definitely elevated the dish. Wish there was more shrimp for the added $2 price.

Juliet T.

You have to get the coconut rice! It's so addicting, I could probably just eat a bowl and be content. It's a nice flavor boost to pair with the curries and veggies. The table's group favorite was the Tea Leaf Salad and Chicken Curry. The Tea Leaf Salad was very refreshing since it was hot outside. The Chicken Curry was flavorful and cooked well.

Mango Chicken & Cup of Jasmine Rice
Jonathan S.

My family and I came to My Burma after church for Father's Day lunch. When we walked in just before 12pm, there were no customers, so were greeted and seated right away. Our server promptly came over with the menus, take our drink orders and greeted me, "Happy Father's Day". Soon after our order was taken, the restaurant got busier and busier. They have a decent of amount of both indoor and outdoor seating. They were prepared and was staffed well. There was no hiccups in service and our food came out quickly. Food (5 stars): - Tea Leaf Salad: had lots of textures between the crunch of the salad, seeds, peanuts, crunchy garlic, etc. The fermented tea leaf dressing was delicious with a little saltiness, oils and maybe a hint of vinegar. - Mango Chicken: nice mango flavor with strips of mango. - Sesame Beef: good flavors, not overly salty or sweet like at other restaurants. - Burmese Eggplant Curry: thick and saucy, light curry flavor that is not overpowering, think cuts of eggplant, tasty over rice - Burmese Style Pad Thai: we got it with tofu, you can choose with chicken (+$1) or shrimp (+$2). Very similar to flavors to traditional Pad Thai at a Thai restaurant, maybe slightly drier. Service (5+ stars): I need to give our server (Heaven W.) props for excellent service! Not only did she come around frequently (even as the restaurant got busy) to check on us, she asked to refill our waters without us asking and even made an attempt for some small talk such as asking if were from Davis or out of town and asking what we were planning on doing after our meal. She did a great job serving all the other tables both inside and outside. It's been a while since I've encountered this level of service. Thank you Heaven W. for the "heavenly" service! If the owners are reading this review, she is a keeper! All the employees looked like they enjoy working there and working with each other. We will definitely return for more of their delicious food and hopefully more great service.

Tea leaf salad, wok spicy noodles, platha & coconut chicken curry, fried chicken wings.

Emmy's smiling efficiency brought our meal out to the highest level of enjoyment. Although a bit loud for conversation, the food was spectacular.

Mango Shrimps
Darwin P.

i was excited to try burmese food, and this restaurant in Davis is an elite spot overall you are greeted at reception by host, who will seat you / get your takeout. i ordered mango shrimps and mint chicken. both dishes were delicious and perfectly seasoned: flavors are present 100% this place represent burmese food very greatly, and makes you want to return, just for the great food, taste and flavors

Thai Canteen was my go-to spot during my college days in Davis. Lunch, dinner, late-night -- Thai…read moreCanteen always had me covered. My usual order at any Thai restaurant is pad thai or pad see ew, and they nailed it every time. The portions are huge and the prices are excellent and they definitely don't skimp. The vibe is very much a casual cantina: metal chairs, wooden tables, and an olive-green color palette throughout the interior. It feels lively and relaxed, perfect for a quick meal with friends between classes. - Pad Thai -- classic chicken pad thai topped with chopped peanuts and lime for extra zest; huge portion with a great balance of sweet and savory flavors; they also go pretty hard on the Thai spice if you ask for it - Thai Iced Tea -- cool, refreshing, and not overly sweet, with that classic amber color topped with condensed milk Service is always friendly and welcoming. The place can get pretty bustling, especially during weekend lunches, but that's part of the classic college-town cantina atmosphere. We were usually able to find a table, though you might have to wait a bit during peak hours since Thai Canteen is a must-try spot in downtown Davis!

I tried Thai Canteen and had a bit of a mixed experience overall…read more The drunken noodles were really good and super flavorful. That was definitely a highlight for me. I also tried the duck fried rice one time, but I made the mistake of ordering it way too spicy and ended up not being able to finish it. Honestly, that was on me, and I think if I adjusted the spice level, it would have been really good. I also ordered the mango sticky rice, which I was excited about because I have had it at many different places. Unfortunately, the mango was not very sweet, and when I mentioned that something felt off, the response I got made me feel a bit dismissed, like I did not understand the dish. That part of the experience was frustrating. In general, the service was not the kindest during that visit, which affected my overall impression. That being said, the food itself has good flavor, and ordering to go might be a better option if you want to avoid that kind of interaction. It has been a few months since I have been back, so I cannot say if the staff or experience has improved. Overall, it is a place with good food, but the service side of things could definitely be better.

Instead, our experience was ruined by the owner, Gordon Langstaff, and his completely inappropriate behavior around a small child. My son, who is three and on the autism spectrum, briefly picked up a loose electrical cord that was lying on the ground under the patio stairs (I have a photo of how exposed it was). Instead of calmly addressing the situation, Gordon walked over in a rude, irritated tone and said, "Can you do something?" I told him I was already handling it and redirecting my son, but as he walked away he started cursing under his breath, using foul language that was clearly audible right next to my child. There is no excuse for swearing like that in front of a three‑year‑old, especially when the unsafe cord was left out in the open by the restaurant in the first place. Whether or not my son is autistic, families should never be subjected to hostility and foul language from the owner of a restaurant. If you offer outdoor seating and leave cords and other hazards accessible, you should expect children to be curious and respond with basic courtesy, not anger. The food itself was mediocre, and after that interaction it honestly didn't matter. This was supposed to be a special birthday outing, and his attitude and language completely ruined it.

I look forward to revisiting and trying more!

First time here to try while visiting my college kid. Was attracted by their good review so…read moredecided to give it a try. Arrived right before their opening time but they still let us in. My kid mentioned they usually are very pack and people would dine outdoor, but I guess we arrived early so there wasn't any wait time. Ordered few items, food came out very fast and the tastes are not bad at all. Beef Fried Rice Noodles: How do you differentiate if this dish is good or not, it is about how much excessive oil that's left on the plate. The stir fried was good, not too greasy, and they marinate the meat well. Unlike other Chinese restaurants, this place's meat was good. Only they could stir fried with even higher eat to create more "wok air" Sticky Rice Stick with Brown Sugar: First time trying this dish, so not sure what to expect. But it does seem to be a dessert to me, my comment would be higher if the rice stick is more chewy. Hot & Sour Shredded Potato: This is common dish from northern part of China. The way they prepared was awesome. The potato was not starchy and the seasoning is just right. A bit greasy but this is actually my favorite dish! Shrimp and Pork with Chives Dumplings: Meat is fresh and dumpling wrap is great too. Each dumpling size is not too big and wasn't torn. Taste is okay but maybe try another filling if I visit again. I would come again to try out other things on the menu if I'm visiting my kid again.

It was pretty heavily battered and not too seasoned, but it wasn't bad. I think there is probably better calamari elsewhere. The dumplings were amazing though! Both came out piping hot.

We thoroughly enjoyed all of them and would recommend both to anyone in the mood for dumplings. The place itself has good seating options both inside and outside! I would highly recommend enjoying a meal outside on the patio on a nice weather day :)

It's just ok. If you're needing dumplings it'll do the trick, but I honestly rather buy frozen…read moredumplings from BaoBao 88 or even Trader Joe's. I hate to say it because the workers are very friendly and I love hearing people speak Canto when I'm homesick. Very casual ambiance, might have a wait to be seated but they take a reasonable amount of time to get your food out after ordering. Have a few vegetarian options as well. It is conviently downtown unlike Yang Kee, but I still dont come back to here. I'm glad they've found their audience and seem to be doing well, though.
