If you are looking for delicious Burmese food, look no farther! This place is fantastic, owned by a very friendly couple who offer excellent service. We love the sesame orange chicken and Mongolian beef! So happy to have this gem in Burlingame. read more

This place has the best somosas and their mohingas are so good! Definitely a A++++ the service is good and conviently located

Really great Burmese restaurant in Burlingame! I haven't had too many Burmese dishes nor have I ventured into many Burmese restaurants in general, but the food here was tasty. We ordered the tea leaf salad (a staple of Burmese restaurants), fried fish and tofu+okra. They were all great, the tea leaf salad is probably the most famous Burmese dish at least in the bay area I suspect because of Burma Superstar. I've tried theirs, but I'd say Yangon's is quite comparable and equally delicious. Carefully crafted with a number of different ingredients and even with a bit of spice. In fact, all of the dishes had pops of spiciness in them. If I had to critique any of the dishes, it would be that the fried fish was a bit too salty for me. Other than that, the food was great, well packaged and plentiful! read more

Lovely Burmese restaurant with delicious food. There are a large variety of dishes to choose from. We always have the Mohinga (fish chowder) and Burmese fried rice to go with our main dish to share. The waiters are friendly, helpful, and courteous. It is located near the 101 freeway; so, very easy access if you are passing through. read more

Yangon - Chinese Near Me - Burlingame, California

We are not from the area but were commuting to the Bay Area through SFO airport. I had a sudden craving for Burmese food and found quite a few in close proximity to the airport. We decided to go with Yangon and I'm glad. Parking was easy (although we arrived early before the dinner rush). The salads are best! We got tea leaf salad, ginger salad and mohinga. All were delicious and well priced. The staff were very sweet so A+ for customer service. read more

The food was excellent, had the tea leaf salad, seafood chowmein and wor wonton soup

So good!! My parents and I tried this place after coming from SFO because I'm spoiled and they're enablers. We had the palatha, wor wonton soup, garlic noodles, and lamb kebat. Everything was so delicious that even though there was a hair in the palatha, we just asked for another even though they immediately took it off our bill with lots of gracious apologizing. The wontons in the soup were tasty and the garlic noods were so good we fought over who got last slurpage! read more

Came here with some friends for dinner. It seems like a popular local restaurant. A few dine in parties, but a lot of takeout. The food was good and I was pleasantly surprised by the large portions. The crispy tofu dish was pretty good. Otherwise, I got a stir fried noodle dish, which was also pretty good. read more

Tea leaf salad and nan gyi toke are a must!! We also got the crab rangoons and chicken fried rice which my kids really enjoyed. Loved the friendly service and wholesome feel of this restaurant read more

Sooo good & worth it! Amazing customer service! And the food is ALWAYS Perfect! The sweet and sour chicken is a perfect crunch even when you rewarm it! Totally recommend everything here! Especially the anything fried! The potstickers were perfection. The rice was fresh! read more

We love this tiny restaurant in Burlingame on Broadway. The owners are a couple & always pleasant when you enter. Their food is reasonable, fresh, plentiful and delicious! They have a patio as well. They never rush you out if you dine in. They do a large take out business as well. Often we've called in to order & pick up in 15 minutes! Parking on side streets pretty easy. They open at 5pm for dinner & are also open for lunch, I think, 11-3. We always get their combo fried rice, garlic noodles, won ton soup & mango salad. We are always hungry on arrival...and too full when we leave...but take what we cannot consume there home! Just as good the next day. Traditional fortune cookies at end of meal too! read more

Yangoon is friendly, homey, and tasty. I've actually been here on and off many times but now it's my official to-go when I get home early and am too lazy to make food (most days). Before I use to always order the tea salad which is always super delicious, but now I found more things to try. Well mainly the Pumpkin pork stew. It will take 20 minutes once order but BE PATIENT because it's SUPER WORTH IT. Ok it's absolutely perfect in all dimension of flavor. The squash is nice and hearty and it give a nice sweet brightness to balance out the fatty melt in your mouth pork. Yesterday I got it w/ some rice and I ate one plate first gave the rest to my bf and he finish all the rice but still have some stew left. I luckily had some naan from another togo meal, heat that naan up and clean the entire container up with said naan and was thoroughly satisfy. It goes great with everything. Also got the wonton soup for my bf many time and he does it enjoy but he doesn't like food so who knows. Hot and sour soup is huge, hot and sour. The spice is just enough to allow you to thoroughly enjoy the heat. Service is super kind. One time I did order milk tea but she forgot to charge me for it and I ask so she just gave it to me for free. WHAT. And last time I didn't notice the time and order it close to when they were closing, I went to the bank and came back and notice they were having lunch but the person was still very sweet and kind. I felt really bad but they didn't give me any sort of attitude like some places might have. My food was done w/ the promise time and I was on my way out ~ I will learn to order online next time/plan better to not disturb their closing time! So glad this is such a close distant to my new place so I can attempt to try their other dishes ... or just get the one I love so much : pumpkin stew! read more

I live nearby and have ordered food to go several times. It's very good. However, I ate in the restaurant for the first time tonight and the service was bad. It took a few minutes for anyone to even acknowledge we were there. Then it took a very long time for someone to take our order. Meanwhile, they were clearly focused on preparing to-go orders. I will continue to order from here to go but will not come back for a sit down dinner read more

Service is great but not too authentic. Nice servers and ambiance is cool. Food are good but not too Burmese for my taste buds. Pricing is ok for a restaurant in the Burlingame area. They have some private sectors at the back maybe it's for the private ppl parties read more

Ordered primarily off the vegetarian menu so not too sure how the meat entrees taste. Had the Curry vegetables and Family tofu. Not bad but could use a bit more flair. The family tofu was a bit tastier and enjoyable. The curry probably needed more spice. Ordered medium but hardly had any kick to it. A bit soupy but maybe that's how it's supposed to be. Overall it was fine. Service was impeccable and the restaurant itself is more like grandmas house but very clean and neat. I can tell they really want to do a good job and overall amazing staff. I'll be back and maybe try something with seafood or meat. read more

I realize my latest post was filled with typos and poor grammar! Here is an edited post: I discovered Yangon randomly on yelp when I was looking for affordable food nearby. I have had Burmese food elsewhere and so decided to give this local restaurant a try. Until this review I have been 3x before. In the times I have went, I have always been able to get a seat right away for my party. The restaurant itself is on Broadway with enough street parking and a small parking lot nearby. The restaurant itself is quiet with nicely set up tables as shown in other posts here. It is definitely an asian family style restaurant feel with nice decorations throughout. The restaurant seems to be run by a family and fits maybe 50 people. I have always been greeted warmly, and staff is always helpful to suggest or describe dishes. I usually get the tea leaf green salad and nan gyi or pya toke noodle dishes, which have been so delicious each time as they arrive to the table set up like my pictures and tossed right in front of us by the server. The staff are so friendly and constantly refilled our water and checked to see how our experience was. Would recommend for sure and I will be coming back many times when I have a craving for Burmese food! (They advertised as Burmese and mandarin food but I have only ordered the Burmese dishes) read more

If you are looking for good burmese/chinese food this is the place! I loved every dish tht we order. So tasty and perfect portions. The dishes don't come with rice or anything but you can order separately. The only reason why Im giving 3 stars is bc of the service. It wasn't bad, the server was super nice to us and attentive but it was only her for like 10 tables. Food came out after a while and it was a Monday .. there were only 3 tables in the restaurant and Lots of to gos. So maybe it would be better to order take out next time. I give 5 stars for the food but I think they should do some improvements on the timing/service. read more

We order take out from this restaurant often and it's one of the few that consistently has good quality food. It's never too salty or greasy and they have a nice variety of vegetables they use in their dishes. It's a couple of dollars more than similar places but I think it's worth it. read more

Kut kyee noodles were awesome. Service was great. Great little spot in downtown Burlingame.

Pretty good find, even though it got off to a rocky start when we walked in and there were literally zero other patrons. Loved everything we got but here's my order of preference: paratha, nan gyi toke, tea leaf salad, mango chicken, green beans. Great service! read more

3.5 stars rounded up. I can't believe this, but Burmese food has become commonplace in the Bay Area in the past 5 years. Now everybody knows about tea leaf salad or pumpkin curry, but the downside is, most places have very similar menus. Much like Chinese food 2 decades ago, most of these restaurants serve the same stuff, with their own little twists, because that's what the customers are accustomed to. I have no idea how close to Burmese flavours anything is, but I guess for me, that's not what counts anyway. We got chicken kebat, which is curry stir-fry, and vegetables in a hearty curry sauce. Either dishes tasted rather decent, with the spice level on the low side. Neither of them really stuck out as especially good, when compared to the other Burmese places a few blocks away. Again, it seems like one of those places where you can count on having the dish you like and would do it the way everyone else does. It doesn't surprise but it doesn't disappoint. It's just what is popular at the moment. The service is much better than some of the other places though. Our waiter was nice and pleasant, the restaurant wasn't very crowded either. It's definitely a good neighbourhood place. read more

Absolutely the best Burmese restaurant in the Peninsula! There are 2 others that I k ow of and Yangon is tops in my opinion. Their Tea Leaf Salad is a must! Everything I have tried is delicious. Service is friendly and attentive. What we were struck by at first glance is how impeccably clean it is. Love Yangon, my new favorite restaurant, so lucky it's within walking distance from where I live read more

Yangon - Chinese Near Me - Burlingame, California

The bright, elegant dining room in Yangon serves as the backdrop for rustic, homestyle Burmese & Mandarin cooking. The style of the furniture, walls, and tableware have an old-world, colonial feel, transporting you to another world! My test of any Burmese restaurant is the tea leaf salad, a mixture of shredded cabbage, fermented tea leaves, and a bunch of crunchy elements including fried garlic, peanuts, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, yellow beans, and slices of jalapeño for a nice kick! By far my favorite dish, the salad was tangy, spicy, savory, refreshing, and earthy all at once, with great crunch from the peanuts, seeds, beans, and fried garlic! I also tried the Beef Kebat, a simple stir-fried dish of beef slices, onion, tomato, and chilies; as well as the Okra Egg Curry, made of fried hard-boiled eggs, tomatoes, peppers, onions, and okra in an onion-based gravy. Both of these dishes were tasty and slightly spicy, though the Okra Egg Curry was on the greasy side, and the vegetables that came with it were undercooked. Both entrees went nicely with an order of coconut rice on the side to complete the meal. Overall, while the food here was somewhat average (and not the best Burmese I've had in the Bay Area), the service and setting were definitely memorable and made for a nice, homey dining experience! read more

I loved this restaurant the food is really good I had the chow mein and the mu shu pork very delicious I would eat here again

First time ordering delivery from this Burmese restaurant. I placed my order online at 5:56pm and it got to me by 6:17pm! So the wait wasn't bad at all! I wanted to try their garlic noodles with fried tofu and their coconut rice! My food was still nice and hot when I was ready to eat, which was great! The coconut rice was almost perfect! I would have just wanted a little more coconut flavor for my liking. Their style of garlic noodles were delicious! I thought the amount of garlic flavor it had was perfect! I really liked the noodle texture they used for their plate as well. The tofu I probably would have liked if it were a little more crispy on the outside, but other than that the inside stayed nice and soft. Overall, I thought this place was pretty good and I'm actually interested in trying other items on their menu! read more

Passed by here on a whim and so glad that I did!! Like most restaurants in the area, the close for a break after lunch (3pm) and then open back up for dinner (5pm). Very nice, casual-elegant set up. We were greeted by Eric and welcomed in. My friend's husband is Burmese, so she was familiar with some of the dishes. He asked if we had any questions and then went to get our drinks. I don't really care for coconut, so I stayed away from the curry dishes. They have authentic Burmese, Thai and Chinese dishes. I had the Spicy Basil Lamb and she had the authentic coconut noodle soup dish (sorry, I forgot the name ‍) We also got an appetizer of fries bread (think naan but chewier and fried) that came with a small side of coconut (wasn't overly coconutty at all), chicken curry. It was great and I definitely suggest it!! All in all, a great place to try and I would certainly go again for more dishes! read more

Love coming here! The food is amazing it is so fresh and full of flavor. I haven't had one thing on their menu that I didn't like. The service is great too, super friendly. We have been going there since we found out about them that they even know us now. Highly recommend. read more

This place BEATS Mingalaba BY FAR! Yangon is my absolute favorite Burmese restaurant in Burlingame. The restaurant itself is very clean, decorated nicely, and I actually enjoy spending my time there. In comparison, I found Mingalaba to be poorly run, dirty and the waitresses rush you out. The food is not very good at Mingalaba, and the waitresses don't help lead you in the right direction. The quality of food at Yangon has amazed me. The waiter took his time to explain the dishes to me and helped me order the most delicious lunch! They are kind, professional and passionate about the food they serve you. They are fully equipped with all meal delivery services. I highly recommend dining there or using a meal delivery to order from Yangon. I will be returning again and again! read more

Yangon is my favorite restaurant. My wife and I are huge fans of Burmese cuisine and a year and a half ago our favorite Burmese restaurant closed down. Afterwards we tried all of the Burmese restaurants on the Peninsula looking for a replacement. They are all good yet Yangon won out. They perfectly combine taste with the quality of a home cooked meal while being a great value. We go there at least once a month. Their Pumpkin Pork Stew is the best I've ever had and the Tea Leaf Salad is very strong as well. I also highly recommend their Milk Tea. read more

Hands down best place to order take out from. Husband and I order from here all the time because it satisfies our Indian craving and our Chinese craving in one place. Our favorites: the mango chicken, samusas, pork curry, mixed fried rice, pork and pumpkin curry, chow mein, and the palatha is the bomb, especially with the delicious curry chicken dipping sauce it comes with!! Pretty much you can't go wrong with anything. Although some dishes are better when eating in, like anything lightly fried, because when they deliver it the steam takes away some of the crunch. Delivery has always been consistent, accurate and timely. Food has always been flavorful, hot and fresh. Even if it's a dish we aren't crazy about, we still find it interesting and/or tasty. read more

I thought I was gonna get murdered for a second walking all the way in the back for the outdoor seating but man did they come through. This was definitely the best Chinese food I've ever had. I'm from the suburbs in Florida so I've never really had real Chinese food straight from somebody's house. Very nice people as well. Go check it out! read more

Super low-key Chinese/Burmese restaurant on Broadway Burlingame. I usually go to the ones on Burlingame Avenue however I am getting to the age where waiting in line for food has become a chore. Super friendly staff and the restaurant was pretty quiet when we got there -- oh well, more service for us! We ordered the hot and sour soup, tea leaf salad, Burmese chicken curry, and Yangon noodle. Everything was DELICIOUS. I was full by the time the noodle and curry came out but it was still good nonetheless. Very mom-and-pop. Love it! read more

I recently moved to Burlingame from San Jose and found this cool nice looking Burmese restaurant on Broadway. I've tried about 6 dishes so far (curry beef, Yangon noodle, mixed chow fun that had beef pork and shrimp, etc...) but to me the favorite was the Yangon noodle and the chow fun! I am Japanese and we don't have such a thick noodles with mix of many flavorful spices. Japanese flavor is mostly from fish stocks or seaweed and soy sauce so it is very interesting to me and I like it very much. The interior is beautiful and I wish I can relax and drink some nice lager beer or a wine with their food soon. Parking next door at walgreen might cause and issue but parking in Burlingame is only 50 cents an hour and if you are willing to walk 2-3 min, there are plenty of parking spaces 1.5 blocks from broadway. Will come whenever I'm craving some nice spicy south East Asian dishes!! :D read more

Great takeaway spot. Have been really pleased with all of the items we've tried. The orange chicken and beef are favorites.

Came here for lunch and it was not good. Had the basil chicken. The dish tasted old and the chicken was thin like lunch meat and rubbery like it was microwaved ahead of time then added to the dish upon cooking for the order. read more

I am a big fan of this restaurant, my favorite Chinese/Burmese place in this area. Restaurant looks small when you first walk in but there's actually more seating in the back of the restaurant. The Burmese tea leaf salad is a must order for all the table. It is a traditional Burmese dish and it consists of lettus, tomato, and uses tea leaf mixture as dressing sauce. Each bite is infused with tea leaf aroma. It is very refreshing and different. My favorite dish is Palatha. It's a multilayer chinese pancake with coconut curry chicken as dipping sauce. The way to eat it is you spoon the curry over the pancake or you can just simply use your finger and dip the pancake directly into the sauce. I personally uses the later dipping method. The best part is the curry sauce. The stir fry string beans is also a must order. It's stir fry with garlic and soy sauce, the strong garlic aroma make it incredibly tasty. Burmese style curry chicken is also very good. They uses red curry instead of yellow curry. You can customize the level of spiciness to your liking. Make sure you tell restaurant how spicy you like it to be. Service here is great! We came on mother's day for dinner and we only waited for 10 minutes, and they were able to seat us right away without reservation. They are very attentive and they check on you every now and then to make sure everything is ok. Very friendly. Overall, I love the food here and service is great. There's a public parking right across the street. I would definitely revisit this place every time I am in town and I would highly recommend to friends. read more
