Reviews

After having limited expectations for Southeast Asian restaurants in the United States, my perspective changed entirely after visiting this particular spot.
The Burmese House Noodles, with their subtly sweet taste, were an excellent appetizer.
The stir-fried chicken, seasoned perfectly with pepper, received high praise, but the star of the meal was undeniably the bird curry.
While rooted in Indian curry flavors, it wasn't overpowering, resulting in a beautifully balanced taste.
The shrimp within the curry were exceptionally delicious, truly satisfying my appetite. This restaurant stands out not just for its food but also for its unique ambiance and luxurious interior.
It caters to a diverse crowd, from couples to families, and the staff's friendly and energetic attitude added to the experience.
What's more, the prices were quite reasonable compared to other places I've been to.
I'd wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to my friends. Additionally, ample parking space and nearby dessert cafes and a Starbucks made it incredibly convenient—no need to travel far for a post-meal treat.

We had lunch on a weekday at this place.
It was less than half full.
We ordered Burmese pork curry and lemon basil chicken, both recommended by our waiter.
The food was good, with very large portions, although the quality of the meat could be better.
The chicken was too spicy for my partner but I thought it was fine.
Our dining table was very wobbly and it definitely impacted our dining experience.
There was only one lady waiting the whole restaurant and someone else busting the table.
Food was served pretty quickly.
Overall a good meal but I would probably try a different restaurant if I were in the area again.

We have been to Burma Choice several times and enjoyed the experience.
There are not many Burmese restaurants in the area.
So, the vibe, the decorations, and the flavors of the dishes feel different. On our most recent visit, Black Pepper Lamb was cooked just right, tender and juicy.
Burma Choice Noodle (vegetarian) was flavorful.
The only downside was that all the dishes were salty.
And that is the reason why we don't visit this place very often. The staff were friendly but not striving for better service.
Despite listing carrots, the Black Pepper Lamb came without them.
When my husband asked about this, the response was a shrug and 'I don't know what the chef did.' There are many unique meat and vegetarian dishes.
Be sure to order rice separately because it doesn't come with the dishes.
