Such a cute, incredibly clean, quiet little spot…read more We had never tried Burmese food before, we were actually looking for Indian food when the Yelp reviews led us here, and it did not disappoint! We ordered the Myeik Pan-Fried Noodles, Burmese Curry, Mango Chicken, Burmese Samosas, Palatha with Curry Dip, Coconut Noodle Soup, and Inlay Tea Salad. Everything was delicious and SO flavorful. We loved getting to try so many different dishes, and there truly wasn't a bad one in the bunch! Our server was the son of the family who owns the restaurant, and he was so kind, helpful, and conversational. He made us feel welcome and was great about answering questions since Burmese food was new to us. Because it's a small, family-run restaurant, the food came out in stages rather than all at once, but we honestly didn't mind at all. We were sharing everything anyway, so it actually made it fun to try each dish as it came out! I have such a soft spot for family-owned restaurants. Supporting families and their small businesses is one of my favorite things to do, and this was such a great find. Delicious food, wonderful people, and definitely a place we'll be back to!

It blows me away that no matter how many times I try Inlay Burmese Kitchen, I feel like I am having…read morethe very best meal on earth. We ordered some items to eat for lunch and then some items to take home for later. I ordered the shrimp and eggplant curry and the palatha flatbread to accompany. It is really difficult to describe the flavor profile. Rich, tangy, full of umami??????? Please just get any dish on the menu and this is the experience you will have. My husband gets C2 (Basil Chicken) every time. This time he said he could have drunk the leftover broth. Well, he got the chance when he ordered a C2 to go! LOL! I ordered the chili lamb for my to go order and it was unbelievably delicious and seasoned perfectly. This restaurant is absolutely spic and span EVERY time we are here. Clean throughout and clean restrooms. This is a family owned restaurant and whoever takes your order is probably one of the owner's children. Such neat people and a dining experience.

We noticed on the Yelp! map that there was a Burmese restaurant that we have never tried. We love Burmese food and thought, why not? What a gem of a place this was! From the moment we walked in to this immaculately clean restaurant, we had a feeling we had made a good choice. I ordered the Kyay Oh stew with pork meatballs and offal because I wanted something really authentic. My husband ordered beef flat noodles with added veggie stir fry. I have to say, my soup was so clean and fresh tasting. I took a gamble because not everyone can prepare the offal without an off flavor or scent. The flavor of this soup is something I will never forget and I loved the greens and quail eggs as well. My husband's noodle dish had an incredible flavor without being too heavily dressed or seasoned. Our waiter was very helpful in answering our questions. He was very friendly. I would love to return to this restaurant and try some more of the authentic Burmese items.

I could not recommend this place enough.

Malai Kitchen in Clearfork is a welcome detour from a shopping afternoon, Thai and Vietnamese…read morecuisine in a bright, airy space that makes you want to settle in for longer than your credit card probably intended. A quick note on seating: the patio is lovely in theory, with the optional open windows and a breezy feel, but the chairs are not winning any comfort awards. Inside booths are the move. Also worth noting, this is Fort Worth, and once the thermometer hits triple digits, the patio conversation ends itself if the windows are open. Plan accordingly. Malai starts every table with steamed sticky rice and an eggplant dip, which is a charming little ritual and a genuinely good one. We also kicked things off with the Edamame, a heads up on the heat level there, and the Fried Imperial Rolls, filled with ground pork and shrimp and served with a sesame soy sauce. Fair warning: these do not photograph well and arrive at the table looking a little shy. Don't be fooled. They're flavorful, subtly spicy, and well worth ordering. For entrees, we tried the Basil Vegetable Fried Rice two ways, one vegan and one with chicken. The vegan version was a genuine surprise, with vegetables cooked just right and a flavor that didn't need the chicken to make its case. The mushrooms, however, had the texture of something you'd find in a hardware store. Chew at your own risk. The Green Curry, meanwhile, was a case of too much of a good thing. The curry was so heavy-handed it drowned everything underneath it. Sometimes restraint is a virtue. Save room for the Banana Pot de Crème. It's creamy, subtly sweet, and a graceful finish to the meal. The service at Malai is enthusiastic, and I do mean enthusiastic. The staff works as a team, all smiles, attentive, always nearby. Occasionally a little too nearby. More than once a plate nearly disappeared before we were done with it. It's a small complaint, and honestly a far better problem than the alternative. They're warm, cheerful, and clearly enjoy what they do, which goes a long way. Portions are generous, so order a few dishes and share the wealth. For a lunch stop between shops, Malai Kitchen punches well above its weight.

One of the best meals I've had from start to finish. Service was excellent, as was ambiance.read more

The space is charming, beautifully yet simply decorated, sparkling clean. Even the ladies room! For sports watchers, they do have 4 big screens in the open-dining room bar. Easy to see from other parts of the restaurant as well. Let's get to the food...absolutely TDF! My favs are the fried imperial rolls and the fried rice over easy (lunch special on Tuesdays!). The rice dish is FULL of perfectly cooked veggies, tender chicken, and an egg on top. The service is SPOT ON percent of the time. Super friendly, on top of it, yet not breathing down your neck. Support this local gem! Note, they also have a spot in the West Village.

You can tell they brew it and it doesn't come from a syrup. When I sat down, I was instantly greeted, and there were like four different people serving my table, I think that they all work as a team to make sure everything is covered. The service was just amazing. Restaurant is beautiful, the booths were , small and intimate and you feeling that you in place with privacy and yet part of the group ....kind of interesting how they've done that. But the food! The food was outstanding, first they gave me a complementary appetizer of Jasmine sticky rice with this eggplant chutney, that was very tasty, a teeny bit spicy, but really good depth with flavor. Then my beef Samosas arrived. There were four, wrapped in like a triangle rapper, smaller than the Indian version of the same, and the flavor was very tasty, and corn and small chopped potatoes, yum! The two chutneys that came with it one was a cool cucumber, and the other was this sweet and spicy plum sauce. They made samosas!!! They could be soft and cool, or they could be delicious and spicy, depending on chutney you had them with and you had a third option.... There was a bed of pickled radish and carrot that really sit off the samosas as well and we're just delicious on their own. I devoured the entire thing. Then get the entrée. I had drunken noodles and I added the shredded pork... It was devastatingly tasty!!! the noodles were obviously done it a wok that's been seasoned to perfection. The wide noodles picked up all that deliciousness from the wok and then combined with the pork... heaven ! They had large pieces of bell pepper and tomatoes. very fresh onions... Just deliciousness. I was too full this time to get dessert, but I'm definitely coming back and I will definitely try it next time

I really want to give the food a 5/5, but if I'm comparing it to a lot of the Thai places I've been…read moreto in Houston, I have to fairly rate them 4/5. There's just been truly so many outstanding experiences I've had in Houston. Regardless, the food was very good and it was authentic, we did get dishes similar to what we got at Street to Kitchen in Houston, which is the most authentic Thai we've had. Food: I forgot to take pictures of two other dishes we ordered, the Thai chicken, wings, and the drunken noodles. But let me start with the complementary sticky rice. I've actually never had a complementary "starter" at a Thai restaurant, so they stood out, and it was a good meal prepper. The dip is an eggplant type of dip so it's not peanut sauce based. It was really good. The best dish was the crab dip with the shrimp chips, the dip was curried and balanced well with the crab. The chicken wings weren't as crispy as we're used to, and there were more on the saucy side, but it was a solid 4/5 dish. The drunken noodles were good and I feel like they had a great mix of veggies, beef, and noodles in the dish, so it wasn't so carb heavy. But we've definitely had better flavor drunken noodles before. Lastly, the mango sticky rice presentation was unlike anything I've seen before, and I loved it. Do I prefer the traditional sliced mango over a bit of rice? Perhaps. But I did enjoy tasting the mango and the condensed milk and a sticky rice together inside the coconut for a change. Service: we went during dinnertime on a Saturday night, and I was so impressed with the level of service we had. Because don't get me wrong, they were busy, but the food came out so fast & we had multiple servers filling up our water and ensuring we're doing okay. We were literally out of there in about an hour, but it wasn't because they were pushing us out, it was truly because everything was so quick. And I loved that strategy they used where we didn't have just one server assigned to us, which is probably why they are thriving here in Dallas. Overall, if you're craving Thai, I would recommend coming here.

That said, the place is clean and the service is excellent, friendly and attentive every time. Come for the food, not the atmosphere.

Overall: 2.6/5 [delivery]…read more We ordered on UberEats, and the food arrived fairly quickly. Crab Fried Rice ($21.45): We chose jasmine rice which. Right off the bat I was not a fan of the texture and the crab tasted like it came from a can. The flavors were not great either so we ended up adding our own sauce. It also did not taste spicy at all despite ordering level 4. Pad Thai Pork ($17.45): Got this with spice level 3 and vegan sauce. The pork was overcooked and tasted almost like chicken. The spice level came through on this one but the sauce leaned too sour, which I think was from too much tamarind. Mi Krop Crispy ($12.50): Crispy wontons tossed in a sweet and sour tamarind sauce with some scrambled egg and one jumbo shrimp. The wontons were not crispy at all and the flavor was only slightly better than the pad thai. Still not worth it. Dallas has so many solid Thai options that this one just did not make the cut for us.
