Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Top Burmese offers "great selection of food and drinks," with standout dishes like the tea leaf salad and curries. Despite occasional delays in service, the staff is "kind and patient." The ambiance is inviting and not overly loud. While some reservations issues arose, the "insanely good" food and warm service remain highlights.

    I appreciate that the host called me to talk about our table, which was reserved outside, because the weather was a little iffy that day. We were given options that worked for both us and the restaurant.

    The staff is welcoming. The food is insanely good. The drinks are blended to perfect taste and delivery. Not a single miss on the desert menu. This place is a must.

    The family share curry was epic. Pumpkin curry and beef curry were a hit! Delicious! Samosas were good, least favorite was the okra curry. Way too spicy and something felt missing in the dish. Ambiance was not super loud, staff are friendly. Definitely coming back.

    We were seated right away. The service and ambience were very good. Our waitress was incredibly personable. We started with delicious cocktails. I had the Blue Burma and my husband had the Mai Tai. We shared the Samosas, Tots & Paratha DipPlatter. All yummy! We’d like to come back soon and try more.
