Burmese restaurants in USA

1. Myanmar

   • Washington, DC, USA
   • Restaurants › Burmese

   Myanmar’s decor is barebones; the service is slow; the portions are small; and the food is delicious. This is home-cooked Burmese: curries cooked with lots of garlic, turmeric and oil, chili fish, mango salads and chicken swimming in rich gravies. Try the mohingar, the Burmese take on Southeast Asian noodle soup: thin noodles, plump bits of fish and a garlicky, in-depth complexity that will have you smiling into the bottom of your soon-to-be-empty bowl. For an ethnic eating experience, it doesn’t get much more authentic.

   By The Bite Burmese

   • San Francisco, USA
   • Restaurants › Burmese

   The basement stairway to this international food court is grungy, and the TVs in the dining area emit the depressing drone of CNN - but as adventurous Asian hole-in-the-wall aficionados know, that means you're paying for tasty foods, not atmosphere. Line up for your bowl of steaming rice noodles with all the fixings: toasted yellow lentils, chicken, chilies, and cilantro, all served in a broth with a hint of coconut milk.

   Burma Superstar

   • San Francisco, USA
   • Restaurants › Burmese

   Yes, there's a wait, but do you see anyone walking away? Blame it on creamy, fragrant catfish curries and la pat, a traditional Burmese green-tea salad tarted up with lime and dried shrimp. Reservations aren't accepted, so ask the host to call you at the cafe across the street, and enjoy a glass of wine – or if you can't wait for that tea salad, head down the street to its casual small-plates sister restaurant, B Star Bar.

   Yoma Burmese Restaurant

   • Boston, USA
   • Restaurants › Burmese

   Boston is one of the few US cities that boasts a Burmese restaurant. Yoma’s la phet thot (green tea leaf salad) is rich in the hearty taste called umami. And the freshly ground, complexly flavored Burmese curry powder makes the chicken curry the best in town across all cuisines.

   Burma Restaurant

   • Washington, DC, USA
   • Restaurants › Burmese

   Actually, the cuisine is more Shan, but since no one knows the difference and the food is still great, who cares? The mango pork is reason alone to revel in this mortal coil.
