A few years ago, my best friend and I discovered this gem while searching for a highly-rated new spot to try, and it was love at first bite! Since then, we've hosted parties in their backroom and patio, ordered takeout or delivery, and made it a point to dine here at least once a month. The owners and staff are incredibly humble, friendly, hardworking, and gracious. I'm proud to bring my visiting friends and relatives here for many reasons. Our go-to favorites include the orange sesame chicken, salt and pepper fish, sautéed string beans, garlic eggplant, tea salad, samosas, honey walnut shrimp, and Burmese chow fun. Thanks to Henry and the entire Yangon team!

The owners were incredibly gracious, kind, and sweet, treating our girls with little extras and being completely understanding of the noise. The food was fantastic! The owners even made our tapas-style dishes without any spice so that the kids could enjoy them too. We will definitely be back. This is a wonderful family restaurant run by a truly wonderful family. Highly recommended!

Despite the amazing flavors on the menu, the restaurant is never too crowded, which I find surprising. I especially enjoy the tea leaf salad and Burmese-style falafel.

They treat our children like part of the family. Plus, the outdoor patio is ideal for young kids.
