Burma Superstar

This was recommended to us by a friend who loves in Berkeley. We were a part of 4 and We were told to wait 45-60 minutes to get a table after we drove 40 minutes from San Francisco to get there! It was very disappointing and we didn’t feel like exploring other restaurants after we arrived. We decided to wait. One table was reserved but the party didn’t show up. The table stayed available and they wouldn’t accept to give it to us. We were slightly lucky because they were able to seat us after 25 minutes of waiting. Most people who came with us left and didn’t want to wait that long. I should say that the busboy was very helpful and attentive and we appreciated his effort to find a table for us sooner than anticipated. We ordered two appetizers: the sesame tofu and the samosas. Both were very delicious. The tofu was surprisingly amazingly tasty. There was a sweet, sour, and slightly spicy favored. A winner indeed. I ordered the eggplant veggie dish which was very good but more oily than I would’ve liked. Other dishes we ordered were walnut shrimp, which was a sweet dish… not for me! The lamb dish was good and you can taste the meat, which means the spices weren’t overpowering. Yes I would go again and try other dishes. It was good overall

More like burma super over priced. It's crazy how 3 dishes cost almost $100. Osaka mart has their actual menu items, Togo, way cheaper.... and their fried chicken really. Really. Taste like chicken nuggets. I'm sure they're fresh, but hard pass

The standout dishes for me were the wok tossed chilli beef and the tea leaf salad. The fried calamaris were alright. One thing to note: the spice level is definitely hotter than expected. If you’re sensitive to heat, choose carefully and don’t hesitate to ask the servers for guidance—they’re friendly, knowledgeable, and more than willing to help steer you in the right direction. Prices are slightly on the pricey side, especially for a casual meal, but the quality of ingredients and the obvious care in preparation make it feel justified. Overall, it’s a fantastic spot for anyone looking to explore bold, beautifully crafted Burmese cuisine.
