I would give 10/5 stars if I could. The food was excellent, just so delicious and unique and well-prepared. And owners were so sweet and kind. We came 30 min before closing, thanks to a snow storm, but the chef/owners were so patient and kind, prepared all the food just for us (the storm was bad so no other customer was around at that hour), gave me free hot soup even! It’s one of those restaurants that truly takes pride in preparing and sharing food with love. Highly recommend this place.

This is the best restaurant experience I have ever had. Cozy, unpretentious place with unbelievably great food. I travel a lot for my job so I eat out a lot. I had the vegan curry with brown rice. I never have had a better curry dish. The soup, slaw, and desert were all part of the meal. The desert was like a French bakery but better. Prices are too low. The family that runs this are wonderful people. I read some reviews that said the service is a bit slow . I disagree. This is not previously frozen chain restaurant food. Everything is cooked to order and prepared for you. Makes a difference. If you are in hurry and don’t want to enjoy the relaxed atmosphere, then order to go. They also had a surprise birthday desert for a guest with the entire family led by the 4 year old grand daughter of the owners joining in.

Should pay them a visit & you won’t be disappointed about their Burmese cuisines
Update:
Came back again for dinner orders: ‘Mango salad’; ‘Fried shirmp’; ‘Coconut Noodle soup’; ‘Pork Belly stew’. All was delicious! Spent a little chat with the chef. And get to know more how they run this restaurant.
Everyone, if you like enjoying the home-cooking foods. (And the prices! We are still surprise to compare with others now in Albany). Don’t hesitate to come & try them!

A tiny restaurant that should absolutely not be overlooked and is worth a detour. You could get a delivery, but the attentiveness of the staff and the cozy atmosphere is well worth it.
The crispy tofu was cooked perfectly, the salad was fragrant, crunchy and well-balanced, the main dishes were a majestic blend of taste and the iced tea was addictive. The cashew nut stir-fry had tender pieces of chicken and crunchy vegetables in a sweet and savory sauce, definitely the highlight of our meal. The Palata bread was also excellent, freshly made, buttery and flaky on the inside, resembling a croissant in texture and taste, even though we ordered it thinking it was a flatbread of sorts.
The only thing we didn’t quite like was the shrimp that came with the Burmese flat wide noodles, choosing a different type of meat would’ve made the dish much better.

The food is very authentic and delicious. Shwe is a family run restaurant and has unbelievably good food. We ordered many dishes and they were quickly prepared and served. The restaurant itself is not very large but it has a very nice and homey feel. I would 100% recommend going here.

Having access to such tasty food that I wouldn’t know how to cook at home makes me feel like I live in a big city. A great addition to the Capital Region food scene. We are vegetarian, and every dish we’ve had had been delicious. (I’m sure the other food is great too.)
There can be a wait to get your main course, but they provide Asian style salads and soups and it is nice to slow down and talk with my dining companions rather than rushing through a meal. So glad to have this wonderful dining option.

As a native of Burma (now known as Myanmar),
Shwe serves 100% legit food from my beloved hometown. Everything tasted like it was made with care and love. Service was warm and welcoming.
What to get:
Lahpet thoke- Fermented green tea leaf salad
Crisp Tofu- Simply amazing! As good as what my family makes.
Burmese Samosa- Packed with flavor! Love the thin fried exterior.
Mohinga- Fish soup with thin rice noodles, lemongrass, fish sauce, and crispy split pea fritters
Khow suey kyat- Stir fried wheat noodles with vegetables
Burmese red tea- Aromatic, creamy and delicious!

Phenomenal! This was my first time trying Burmese food, and it set the bar so high!!!
Everything was so delicious! I got the lunch special, which comes with a small salad and soup – both were surprisingly delicious!
For appetizers, my party and I ordered the fried tofu and tea leaf salad. The tofu was home made, and it showed! So flavorful and soft 😀
The tea leaf salad was amazing! So delightfully crunchy with the peanuts and sesame seeds and cabbage, so very flavorful with the tea leaves and garlic oil. I loved it and want to try all of their salads!
For a main, I shared the tofu curry and egg plant curry, and both were amazing! The tomato curry sauce was so delicious.
I also got the Burmese tea – it had milk and a splendid spice profile that was just so comforting!!
Lastly, we had the tapioca pearl and coconut milk dessert, also lovely!
I wish I was more eloquent with describing flavors, but trust me, you need to try this place!! Every dish we received and tried, we were blown away by the depth of flavor!!
This place is unassuming looking on the outside, but don’t let its subtlety and quiet appearance deceive you. This place is bursting with flavor and authenticity. It’s a family run business. I want to go back here as soon as possible to try more of their menu!

I had never heard of this place until it popped up as a random suggestion on DoorDash. I’m so glad I gave it a try because everything I ordered was beyond my expectations. There are real, fresh veggies, and fresh, perfectly cooked meats, and the flavor of everything was perfectly on point. I have now ordered there a couple times and never been in person, but can say it has consistently been fantastic food even delivered. The only possible negative thing I could say is that it’s a little slow getting it delivered, but if the food is going to turn out that good – by all means, take your time!! I love all kinds of Asian foods and sincerely think this is one of the best restaurants I have tried in the area, or probably anywhere.
