Wonderful Burmese food. The milk tea was wonderful (I had it less sweetened which is how I like it). The paratha layers were crispy outside and soft inside, and the curry was delicious. The beef curry was flavorful and exotic and perfect with the coconut rice.

Fantastic hole-in-the-wall with friendly service and tasty food! Not a lot of space so you may have to wait for a table, and quite honestly the seating is not all that comfortable. Despite the seating issues, I still had an exceptional experience so that is noteworthy.

Bravo to the staff for being able to keep up with a packed restaurant and dinner rush in a small space. He had to do the job of taking orders at the register, preparing drinks, serving food, and waiting tables. Food was tasty and felt fresh and home cooked. The cherry on top was getting 50% off our bill because it was Fourth Thursdays in Soma West!! A fantastic dinner at an extremely competitive price point, wow! Please go support this business, let’s help them one day get a larger space 🙂

This is a cute small restaurant. It seems to mostly be a pickup spot, but my friend and I were open to trying a different cuisine and decided to dine in. We did not regret the decision!

The food was absolutely delicious. I loved the BOB chunky, their signature dish with coconut rice. I haven’t had butterfly pea tea in a while and enjoyed it. Keep in mind that this place doesn’t serve alcohol. The customer service was good as well.
An area for improvement is having regular tables (without holes in them). The blue tea spilled into one of the holes and on my white pants.

As you walk down the street with construction, you automatically smell goodness and boom, there’s Bay of Burma. The restaurant was nice and clean. The food seemed pretty legit authentic with the flavours and spices. I opted to walk all the way here from union square for this spot bc the other “Burmese” restaurants seemed too mainstream, more a mix of Thai or some other asian fusion mixes.

They were super kind. I inquired about their hot tea, and the guy said, here try it, it’s on the house. I thought he’d give me a sample, then I could decide if I’d add it to my order. But he made a whole order and said enjoy! I was visiting from Toronto sharing how we don’t have any authentic Burmese restaurants so I was pretty excited to try it out. He then shared things about Burma and their food/history. I strongly recommend this spot. It’s even worth going out of the way.

Better than Burma Superstar and Burma Love — both on quality and price. Every single thing that I’ve had out of that kitchen (beef curry, chicken curry, keema palata, yangoon pigments) has been memorably delicious. And the cold burmese milk tea is a highlight I always come back for! Can’t wait to try every single item on their menu. The space is kind of tight but they always do their best to accommodate us.

Wow, what a fantastic dining experience! As a group of first-timers to Burmese cuisine, we were blown away by the flavors and the friendly service. The tea leaf salad was a revelation, and the swe taung noodles were simply divine. Even the milk tea was a standout!
The staff was incredibly helpful, guiding us through the menu and accommodating dietary restrictions with ease. We’re already planning our next visit and can’t wait to try more of their delicious dishes. This is definitely a must-try for anyone looking for a unique and flavorful dining experience. I’ll be bringing all my out-of-town guests here from now on!

Never had Burmese food before but i would call it a mix between indian and thai. I was really impressed by the flavors and portion sizes here. Since then I’ve tried to get Burmese food back from but not nearly as good as this place.

Long time customer here. The flavors are always on-point, yum! Highly recommend Shwe Taung Noodles, the curry chicken is rich, a little sweet, and perfectly balanced with all the seasonings and spices. Samusa Salad is also an easy choice with spot-on flavors all the fixings. The service is top-notch, probably because the owner is very involved in how it runs. Simply fantastic!

It wasn’t until I moved to San Francisco that I had Burmese food for the first time. I am consistently blown away by how delicious and comforting every meal from Bay of Burma is. I eat here multiple times a month and love introducing my friends to this spot.

My favorites are the Ginger Spirit Salad, Dorfy Chicken, Coconut rice , and the BOB Chunky. You honestly cannot go wrong with any of the food items from here.

They have indoor and outdoor seating suitable for dogs and children. Indoor seating is cozy, as it is a small space.

Service was very poor here, we reserved a table in advance and when we had got there the waiter had apparently forgotten about it and had given our table to other people. The waiter also didn’t really seem to understand our cues and tried rushing us into ordering while we were browsing the menu. The food itself was good but nothing special, I ordered the pineapple fried rice. I will say the tea was excellent! Some of the best chai I’ve had in a long time and reminded me of what I grew up with as a South Asian man.
