Hidden Treasure  5 Star Rating - World class

By Angie S. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 8,661

Off the beaten path in Richmond, this cozy family run Burmese restaurant has managed to create quite the following. They do not take reservations, so upon arriving at 7:45 we had to write our name on a dangling clipboard with instructions from the waitress to go get a drink and wait for her to call us. An hour later, starving, we were finally seated.

The wait was worth it!! The 20 ingredient salad was the best thing we tried with the fiery Tofu and Chicken in 2nd place. The ambiance is very causal, authentic with no frills, and the price is reflected (entree's around $8-$10). The service was super quick and very pleasant.

I will definitely be recommending this place to friends tired of eating a over-priced pan-Asian restaurants in the marina

PROS: price, food, authenticity
CONS: wait, not good for big groups, small

This restaruant has amazing food, and its always packed which I take as a good sign. They have great dishes ranging from chicken to fish, to noodles and salads. The prices are very reasonable and the staff is friendly.

Very very tasty.  5 Star Rating - World class

I can't really make a comparison between this and other Burmese restaurants as this is the only one I've ever eaten in. But comparing it to other restaurants, I will say that the food is delightful though. The only issue is that everyone seems to know that it is a great restaurant and so there is very often a line--at least when you want to eat. I have found that it is easy to get a seat on a Sunday afternoon; but in the evenings assume there will be a 30 minute wait. As a comparison it is similar to Indonesian food, and has some small similiarities with Thai foods; especially their stews. One other thing to note though is that it is a little bit pricier than Chinese or Thai--a couple of buck an entree; but it is well worth trying.

PROS: Fantastic food
CONS: Have to wait and price.

Great Restaurant- Busy  4 Star Rating - Very good

By Lorraine M. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 4,637

This place is always very busy, but they have implemented a system that allows you to leave your cell number and go visit one of the local coffee houses/bars while you wait.

Food is delicious, I reccoment the Thai Peanut/Ginger Salad and the Spicy Sesame Chicken.

The coconut rice is very nice.

Service is sometimes slow, and they do not always bring all the meals out together.

One of the Best Restaurants in San Francisco  4 Star Rating - Very good

By Annie P. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 7,257

I'm not picky or easily wowed. But this restaurant reverberates in my stomach and my soul. For most people, it's a trek to the Richmond district, but this up and coming section of foggy Clement street is well worth the pilgrimage. Everything on their menu is yummy, and the only thing we wanted when we ate there was more.
