Place was not very good. Chicken tasted very old and was grey like it had been frozen for a very long time. Noodles were good, but beef also tasted old and tough. Chai was watery and had the flavor of those instant mix packets. Good service, but very pricey for the low-quality food.

Delicious Burmese food! We had the stuffed tofu, Pagan Vegetarian Curry (which is a delicious soup thickened with cooked red lentils, with okra, eggplant, bamboo shoots, and mint), and the Chicken Kebat (sautéed chicken in a spicy sauce), all from the Burmese side of the menu. Also hot Burmese tea, which is a sweetened black tea. The staff was super friendly dot. Recommended!

Everything was delicious, especially the fried eggplant dish and the pumpkin stew. The garlic noodles were not as good as those at Perilla and other Asian spots. But still even with that less than stellar dish, it was less than stellar in comparison to other items ordered that were mind blowing. The mango sticky dessert is also super tasty. Overall a solid find for good food after visiting the Legion of Honor nearby.

Highest recommendation for this restaurant. Deserves more than 5 stars, truly. This was the best Burmese food I’ve ever had. The moh hinga had an incredible depth to it, and the sauces of the egg curry and pan fried okra prawn were distinct and indescribably delicious. The okra prawn dish was the most surprisingly good dish, but they all were perfect, and the coconut rice was also perfect as a base. I’ll definitely return!

Great thai+ Burmese tasty and affordable food and a really friendly place that is very welcoming. Felt like one of the family run restaurants that prefers food and service over profits! One of my favorites whenever I am visiting the Lands end and presidio areas in SF.

Great proximity to the Legion of Honor museum, easy walk to it. Fast, great service, especially considering there was only one person waiting tables but I never had to wait for a water refill and the food came out quick. Delicious tea leaf salad and that crab pad Thai was divine! I wish this restaurant existed where I live; I’d def be a regular!

Wow. Just wow. The food looked so good I forgot to take pictures, but I ordered the lamb curry and the mango salad, both of which were phenomenal. The lamb was cooked well. I definitely, definitely recommend getting the mango salad. 10/10
