Reviews summary

Located in New York, this restaurant offers a vibrant atmosphere and a diverse menu infused with Burmese flavors. While some dishes, like the tea leaf salad and shrimp skewers, receive high praise for their freshness and taste, others fall short, lacking the expected spice and texture. Service can be inconsistent, with occasional slow response times noted. Diners appreciate the appealing ambiance and unique drink options but express concerns over the portion sizes and value for money. Many recommend sampling the appetizers and highlighting the potential for enjoyable happy hour experiences, while some suggest considering alternatives for hearty meals.

What JamieA dislikes about Rangoon:

Cool ambience, attentive staff, food was disappointing. The curries were okay, they had flavor but not a stew as we expected. The veggie curry listed loads of veggies. I think I counted 4 pieces of vegetables in beans- veg and beans were slightly under cooked. The spicy beef was literally sautéed chopped meat with a kick. The pickled veggies were a nice compliment. The patio was lovely but we would not go back. The m... View all feedback.

Wow. Such great food! Stumbled on this place when I was in the neighborhood. I went by myself and ordered for 12 people. : They’re on Uber eats so I’m looking forward to trying everything on the menu. They mark: gluten free, dairy free, andvegetarian on all items on their menu. (See my pic I ate outside in the front. The structures they’ve built are some of thenicest I’ve seen. Notice the metalwork on the smaller one! When I used the bathroom, I noticed they also have a super cutebackyard that looks like it’s set up to be semi private for tables of two (makes for decent social distancing and/or privacy .But to be honest, I didn’t get a chance to go back there and really look. Can’t wait to go back!

I can’t recommend Rangoon enough. The dishes are fresh, unique, and delicious without being overly rich, saturated, or pretentious. The space is clean and beautiful with a great atmosphere for a date or for a group of friends. We tried the tealeaf salad, onion fritters, mango and shrimp salad, cold tamarind noodles, spicy mee shay noodles, and prawn curry--all wereamazing. We also tried multiple wines, all of which were lovely and paired well with the spices in the dishes. First time eatingBurmese and I will definitely be back to try more. Thank you to the staff and the manager, Kyle, for your recommendations andtaking such good care of us.

Intimate place, we went for lunch and ordered four dishes to share for three and we're very well fed. Everything was delicious and came out quick. Tea leaf salad was fresh and delicious but beware of the hot red chilis. The lemongrass chicken Curry wasreally flavorful and made for a nice mild curry. The fried chicken was really good with or without the dipping sauce. Thetamarind cold noodles were delicious as well.

Wow, the food here is incredible! I discovered this place while wandering around the neighborhood. I visited solo and ended up ordering enough for 12 people! They’re available on Uber Eats, and I’m excited to try everything from the menu. Each item is clearly labeled as gluten-free, dairy-free, or vegetarian, which is really helpful. I ate outside in the front, and I have to say, the structures they’ve built are among the nicest I’ve seen. Take a look at the metalwork on the smaller structure! When I used the restroom, I noticed they have a charming backyard that seems set up for semi-private dining for two—great for social distancing or just some privacy. I didn't get the chance to explore it thoroughly, but I can’t wait to return!

The ambiance was fantastic, and the design was absolutely charming. The food was delicious; we ordered the veggie curry, spicy noodles, pork slaw, and the fried chicken, which was simply incredible! The wine selection was impressive as well; I enjoyed a glass of orange wine from Tuscany. For dessert, we had the tapioca pudding, which was a perfect ending. Kyle took great care of us and was wonderful throughout our meal.

The flavors were delicious, but I deducted one star for the small portion of chicken curry. I highly recommend trying the tea leaf salad, as you will not be disappointed.

$4 for literally 1/2 cup of Coconut Rice? Insane. Its barely one serving. Save your money.

The food at this restaurant is simply amazing. The tea leaf salad is outstanding, and I particularly loved the soup and fritter that accompanied it. If I had one drawback to mention, it would be that I wished there was a little more food for the price, but the quality remains consistently excellent.

The quality is outstanding. The tea leaf salad is one of the best dishes I've ever tasted and undoubtedly the best salad I've had.

I was quite disappointed with my dining experience at this restaurant. I had been looking forward to trying their food for a while. The Chicken Curry was tough, tasted stale, and the portion was small. The Garlic Noodles were flavorless, and I don't understand why they are regarded as special. The Tamarind Veggie Curry was the highlight of the meal, but it's not something I would choose to order again.

Went with a friend from Burma and he approved of the flavors! We had the tea leaf salad, chicken curry, and grilled shrimp skewers! Outdoor seating is equipped with heaters.

The food was sensational and beautifully presented. We enjoyed the Burmese fried chicken and Keema paratha. We will order the spicy masala beef every time we come. It is that good. The glass noodle stew with quail eggs was also tasty and hearty. We were underwhelmed by the coconut tapioca for dessert. I would suggest skipping as it wasn't quite the right note to end a delicious dinner on. Ambiance and service were fantastic.

I ordered the twill frit, teeblatt salad, and spicy mee shady noodles. The fritter was good but slightly burnt and a bit messy. The teeblatt salad was very tasty and unique – definitely a must-try. The spicy mee shady noodles were disappointing; they were swimming in oil and the portion of noodles was surprisingly small. I had it with pork and was shocked at how little meat I received for $4. The service was slow, as if the server was new or nervous, but they were friendly and tried their best. Perhaps better training could help.

I'm not sure if we visited at the wrong time, but the food was quite bland, and the noodles in my soup were soggy. The roast chicken appetizer was also undercooked. On the positive side, the drinks and service were excellent. Overall, it wasn't terrible, but I found it to be overpriced for what we got.

I picked this restaurant as it was named one of the best places to eat in NY. On arrival we were greeted with a smile and shown to our table. We were provided with water and drinks orders were taken. The menu is fantastic and the food was unbelievable. There were other groups eating and talking creating a nice ambiance but not noisy. I was surprised how cheap the bill was for the quality of the food. This was easily the best meal of my whole NYC holiday. Cannot recommend this enough.
