Shan Noodle
Jonnie N.

Yoma Myanmar is a true gem. This cozy mom-and-pop spot has such a warm, homey feel, and the owners are incredibly sweet and welcoming--you can really feel the love they put into the place and the food. The Beef Curry is deeply savory and aromatic, with tender beef that's perfectly seasoned and comforting in all the right ways. The Shan Dry Noodle absolutely shines--think Dan Dan noodle vibes, but with its own distinct personality. It's nutty from the peanut and sesame, wonderfully flavorful yet clean, and the sauerkraut adds a bright tang that cuts through the richness of the stewed pork belly beautifully. Authentic, soulful, and made with heart. This is the kind of spot you're excited to come back to again and again. Highly recommend.

7 5. Stir Fried Chayote and egg and curry
Jean L.

Yoma Myanmar is better than I remembered from my previous visit of almost a decade ago. My visit took place over the weekend and wowsers, I'm already looking forward to coming back next time I'm in the area. Our group of 3 ordered a tea leaf salad, chicken curry, chayote & eggs (veggie dish), and special shan noodles offered on weekends. Everything tasted as if someone's family member was cooking in the kitchen. All the dishes were flavorful and not greasy. We ate everything and left super stuffed. I was even full the next morning. Prices are reasonable, especially during these challenging economic times. Decor is still the same, inside and outside. Still a husband and wife duo. The sweet lady still chats it up with each table by asking how things went and if there are any questions. Dreaming about what entrees to try next... #16/2025

Lunch special
Sarah P.

Went on a weekend for lunch. It's a pretty small restaurant and it got really packed after we came in. Ordered the lunch special. It's $14.99 with 2 mains and salad or soup. Apparently on weekends it's an extra $2 tacked on. The server was very sweet but I do have to say was very disorganized. We did get our correct order though. I ordered chicken curry, beef curry and tea leaf salad. My favorite dishes that I got to try was the papaya salad and tea leaf salad. The flavors were delicious and veggies seemed fresh. The beef in the curry was a bit dry and overcooked, so I'd say I preferred the chicken over the beef. Overall, food was pretty good and they served complementary coconut jelly at the end too!

Menu 3/6/26

So happy to have found & tried this gem for the first time! It was the first time trying Burmese cuisine and I was so impressed. Apparently they've been around for decades & I can see why. This cozy mom & pop restaurant has a handful of tables & you're immediately treated like family. The owners are so sweet & friendly! We had a lot of questions about the menu & they were so happy to patiently explain everything! Parking: there's street parking available but there's also a small parking lot behind the restaurant Restroom: there's a single stall restroom available for customers Food: everything was so flavorful! Portions were generous & the prices were great! My favorite dish was the tea leaf salad. It was so fresh & had all the needed textures for someone like me who has texture sensitivity. Each bite was pleasantly crunchy & I can't wait to go back for some soon! Another notable mention (not pictured) is their Burmese tea! It's prepared hot & it's their version of milk tea. Highly recommend! Support your local businesses!

shan noodles, tea leaf salad
Crystal G.

Came here with my vegetarian mom based on other reviews mentioning good VG options. Food and service were AMAZING! The lady (owner?) was very friendly and attentive. She gave VG recommendations for my mom and even reassured us that they would omit the fish sauce. The restaurant is super cute and feels like I'm inside their home. Will definitely be coming back and introducing my friends to this place! Tea leaf salad (vegetarian): 4/5 Shan noodles (chicken): 5/5 Coconut jelly dessert: 5/5

extremely underrated spot. we were the only people there on a friday night. i would go many more times

42. Fish Paste with Tomato
Alvin L.

Be careful missing the sign, pirched behind a big ol' tree on Garvey! No frills and Great flavors for those seeking to explore Burmese food, and are looking outside the usual Chinese/Vietnamese places nearby. Ordered Mohinga, fish paste and tomato curry, and a side of tea lead salad. Service was awesome, as the owner took the time out of a slower Tuesday evening to educate us on the menu and gave us recommendations. She gave us mohinga (fish noodle soup) deconstructed so that we can share. The flavors of their tea leaf salad was on point and balances between sweet, savory, and sour with nice crunch. The fish paste and tomato curry was flavorful, and not for the faint of heart. If you like Vietnamese mam rouc or Filipino bagoong, then you'll be interested in this. Would recommend ample amount of rice as it's needed with the saltier curry. Ended the meal with a cooling jello dessert!

I've seen this restaurant and have passed by for many years. I finally decided to stop in. Definitely mom and pop, and that's the best part. I'd never had Burmese food before, so I was plenty excited. It's similar to Cambodian, Thai, Malaysian. Strong spices and flavors. If you like Southeast Asian and South Asian foods, you'll definitely enjoy it. I got the rice as the owner recommended. Tasty and such a huge portion, I took half of it home to enjoy the next day. She was so busy and doing the work of several people. This family deserves support from the community.

Fried Beef

Couldn't be happier with my experience here. Joan and her restaurant make you feel like you're in their home. My best friend growing up was Burmese - Yoma made me feel like a kid again having a home cooked Burmese meal. Every dollar feels well spent here. Fried Beef reminded me of Chicarrones. Dangerously flavorful- like fresh fried beef crisps. The Thick Noodles were delicious - if you are a fan of pad Thai , definitely recommend. Best to me was fried shrimp curry. I love spicy- this had an incredible umami + spicy flavor. The shrimp have the shells on it , and the way it's cooked - you eat the shells and it makes for a great "crunch". Wildly savory, unique dish that I will have to come back for. So happy to support this business. There aren't a ton of tables so it feels cozy. The service is good! Food came out fast and Joan will give great recommendations if you ask. I will absolutely be back here whenever I'm in the Baldwin park area - even if it's just grabbing a fried shrimp curry for the road :)

Small mom and pop shop that literally looks like someone's living room/kitchen. There is no parking lot available so only street parking. We ordered Shan noodle recommended by the nice lady owner. I asked her to not add peanuts in there as the dish comes w peanuts but unfortunately they forgot. She was apologetic and so nice about it. Then we also go the beef curry and curry fish both had the same sauce which had a little bit of spice but not too overwhelming. Perfect! They were so nice and talked to almost every customer. The people next to us travelled 30 mins just to eat here! She even gave us complimentary coconut jelly dessert to end our meal.

Tea leaf salad
Bin X.

We really enjoyed the chicken and potato curry, shan noodles, and goat curry. The dishes were all flavorful and huge portions. We had plenty of left overs for another meal at home. The owners are very kind and generous. Highly recommended it!

Fried yellow tofu
Khaing Z W.

The beef curry is really good. Highly recommend it with naan . Watercress ongchoy chinyayhin is very refreshing but a bit spicy. Fried tofu makes a good appetizer and soft tofu mix is really good

coconut jelly
Grace M.

4.5! first time trying burhmese/myanmar food! really liked it. a lot of the items was a good blend and similar to indian food which i loved. i tried traditional burmese dishes like shan noodles and shan hkat - both of which were very good! my favorite was their yoma danpauk - their chicken biryani. im in LOVE with this rice, one of the tastiest rice ive tried ever. chicken was cooked and spiced so good too. their samosas were simpler than the ones im used too but theyre also very good. their burmese tea reminded me of thai tea and their thai tea was pretty strong and had tea grounds still in but i actually really liked the taste of it. the owners were so nice they even gave us a complimentary dessert of coconut jelly. loved this place! it did take long for some of our food to come out though. i think there might be only one person cooking since the orders came out one by one. very nice local spot!

31. Beef curry and 5. Fried Samusa.  Delicious.

There seems to only be one server so things can take some time but otherwise, the service is good! It's located in a small strip mall with relatively easy parking but some spots can be a bit tight. The interior is simple but definitely "mom and pop" vibes. We ordered Fried Ogo Squash, Paratha with Peas, and Tea Leaf Salad for starters and Prawn Curry and Gravy Rice as mains dishes. All the starters were delicious choices and, although the paratha was a little oily, it went super well with the peas and curry. The prawn curry was a flavor explosion with the prawns being perfectly cooked and the gravy rice was packed with veggies and a good amount of gravy. Some people in our party are vegetarian and everything besides the prawn curry were good choices for them. For desserts and drinks, we ordered RC Trio Delight, Smashed Strawberry Drink, and Rangoon Milk Tea. The RC Trio was a little on the sweet side but refreshing and the smashed strawberry was a delicious yogurt drink filled with strawberry. The Rangoon milk tea is delicious and a not too sweet option. 10/10 would recommend. Already thinking about the next time we come back.

I have the benefit of two additional friends who also visited this restaurant (a.k.a. Centana Mon)…read more One is Burmese, so I can attest to the authenticity of the food by his judgement. Everything we had was quite tasty. We went on a weekday for late lunch, so the service was quick. I heard that when crowded, it is slower. (Also, college students are on summer break and staffing the restaurant during their summer break. That will end soon.) The restaurant is clean, though the setting is a bit spartan. It is in a small shopping center, with sufficent parking. I spent one summer working in a small mid-western town when I was in college, and there were few options other than standard American fare. We live in one of the best areas for cuisine from all parts of the world, owned and prepared by people who were raised there. It is a blessing to be able to drive a short distance and experience so much variety. Burmese food is rare even here, and it deserves to be tried.

While I'm grateful that they took my order before they were officially open (10am is when they open…read morebut they opened their door at 940am), I'm not happy with how expensive the food is. The tea leaf salad is delicious, don't get me wrong. But one order is $13 on the menu. I got two of them because the portion isn't exactly generous. Their beef curry is $19 - and to my utter shock, what I got was a container that held around seven tablespoons of meat and sauce. To add insult to injury, the beef curry was NOT made fresh. The waiter just pulled it out of their giant refrigerator and then packed it in a to go bag. The final insult is that for just these three items I had to pay $52. Not even all of these combined will keep me full. I could've probably just gone to Jollibee and gotten a ten piece bucket for $30. At least it would've been freshly cooked and absolutely filling. And I'd be able to take home leftovers. I support local businesses, sure, but the underlying assumption is that they charge a fair price for the portions given. This may just be me, but I don't feel like I get much bang for my buck here. It's too bad there aren't more reasonably priced Burmese restaurants in the area that I could support. Mandalay's tea leaf salad is great but very expensive. If I knew how to make the tea leaf salad myself, I would, but I don't.

It was my first time trying Burmese food, so I had no idea what to order and just asked the young gentleman working there to pick something for me.

The move is to mix the fish sauce with the lemon juice into the noodles. Incredible flavor combo. The vinegary cabbage on the side was also perfect with it.
