Service was a little weird this time because we came right before they closed for lunch so everyone was ready to go. It's ok, I understand. Food is however always good & on a nice summer winter day outdoor seating was a plus. Garlic noodles 7/10 Minted chicken 10/10 Salt & Pepper Shrimp 10/10 Burmese Ice tea 10/10

Checked this place out for lunch and it was great. My favorite dishes: Dry Curry Beef, Coconut Rice and Tea Leaf Salad. The sweet coconut rice plays the perfect foil for the rich curry beef. Perfect match. The tea leaf was very good. Very good example of this style of salad. Also the portions were good size and you shouldn't leave hungry. The service was good too. Our waiter did a good job of giving us recommendations and food came out in a reasonable time. The dining area is spacious and good for big groups. There were two birthday celebrations as well as an example. They also have a full bar with lots of drink options. There is street parking and some in alley next door. But the alley is paid parking and kind of cramped.

We got there when it open on Sunday 1130 nice place very clean and the help is very attentive . The food was great the pumpkin curry I had better but everything else was fantastic. The eggplant was excellent the tea leave salad is s must I could do without the coconut rice . The lamb pepper steak was excellent. The samosas I didn't like much the mango ice cream was really good didn't care much for the purple rice thing garlic noodle was good not the best had but good any how please try this place it's good . Oh I forget the spicy green beans was to die for

Burma 2 is always delicious and very consistent with the quality of its food. I've come here a few times, and every time, it never disappoints. The restaurant is clean, and the staff is friendly. I would say though that the dishes are big and this kind of restaurant is better if you eat family style. All the dishes are perfect to share! Last time we were here, we ordered several dishes: - Eggplant and Garlic 5/5: I love eggplant, and they make one of the best eggplants I've had! I can eat this with rice alone. Every bite is perfection. If you like eggplant this is a must! They also have eggplant and tofu but just the eggplant itself is delicious! - Lemon Grass Chicken 4/5: This is also a favorite of our family. The chicken has good flavor, and the lemongrass is not too overpowering. - Pumpkin Curry 2/5: this is a no for me. The pumpkin wasn't cooked all the way and the chicken was overcooked. I wouldn't get this again. - Tea Leaf Salad 5/5: This dish is very refreshing, has lots of flavor, and is overall a delicious dish. It's a must-try, too. - Salt and Pepper Calamari 5/5: I was surprised at how good the calamari was. It was perfectly coated and cooked, not oily, and very flavorful. This is definitely another great dish. - Palata 5/5: I love Palata, and the one here is perfect. I like to order it with the coconut chicken curry. The dish is pretty small though but the coconut curry's flavor is exquisite. - Pad Thai 3/5: this was a "not again" dish for me as well. It was too sweet. - Kebat Chicke 4/5: Our waiter recommended this dish, and it was surprisingly amazing. The spices mixed with the vegetables and meat were perfection. Overall, I love this restaurant and 100% recommend it. I've tried other Burmese restaurants in the area, and Burma 2 is my favorite around this area.

Gayle and I enjoyed a very nice meal with our theater friends a few hours after enjoying Mary Zimmerman's Matchbox Silver Flute at Berkeley Rep. We parked at the Library and took an easy walk over to a rather bustling and reservations-friendly establishment. Traffic seemed to bunch up at the door, but one our reservation was confirmed, restaurant staff were very attentive in getting us to our table and getting the drink order down relatively quickly. It was smooth sailing service-wise from there. We dined "family style" as we ordered an appetizer (Palata with Chicken Curry) and 3 entrees (Burmese Pad Thai with Chicken, Burmese Fried Chicken, and Burma String Beans and spread the dishes around our table. Everything was excellent, especially the String Beans. 2 of us ordered beer to go along with all this, while Gayle was happy with her signature Bombay Sapphire Martini. The spice factor was mild, but with welcome glasses of water at the ready. This is a casual dining establishment, including a fairly large single indoor dining room, and an outdoor patio. It was a busy place when were were there, with a number of group tables contrasting against couples and tables of 4. Gayle even recognized a few people, even though they apparently didn't recognize here. In the end, it was a bit easier to slip the door to the patio, instead of navigating the front door area. We split the bill 2 ways, of which we all agreed that the total cost was rather reasonable. And with reasonably large portions, we also though that our experience as an excellent value for the money.

Great experience! Went here cause we saw it was dog friendly on yelp as we were having an outing with our pupper. We got a plain palata, nan gyi dok, and Burmese ice tea. Loved the nan gyi dok! The noodles were so light and had a texture I wasn't really expecting, it kind of melts in your mouth. Love the flavors as it tasted similar to a filipino dish my mom makes but I can't seem to put a name to it. Definitely coming back! Service was also helpful in helping my fiancée find a dish she is not allergic to.

I've heard excellent things about Burmese cuisine from several people, but I never had the chance to try it out until a few months ago when a friend recommended that we get dinner at Burma 2. I searched online to find a good traditional Burmese dish for a first timer, and multiple sources pointed me to Moh Hin Gha (pureed catfish chowder). It turned out to be so delicious! I loved it! It reminded me of a soup version of this Filipino noodle called Palabok. I would highly recommend it for those not familiar with Burmese cuisine. My friend and I also shared an appetizer plate of Palata which is a flaky flatbread that is served with curry. This was also an excellent choice. I got to try a few bites of my friend's order too. Everything that I tried that evening was great! Can't wait to come back!

Unique food experience that you probably won't have many opportunities to try elsewhere. Popular spot to eat, upbeat & attentive staff, full bar, and you cannot go wrong with the dishes your order. Got the tea salad, coconut rice, sesame beef, and jalapeño mint chicken. The only dilemma is is next time I go I'd want to order the whole menu

Our server was attentive and service was quick! We ordered * Tea leaf salad - my faveee! Perfect mix of green ingredients * Garlic noodles - this was good but not my fave * Palata with coconut chicken curry - wished it was more flakey + the curry was good * Coconut Rice - delish! * Lemongrass Chicken - good flavor * String Beans - these were good but spicy! I think this is the sister restaurant of Burma Burma in Dublin because the logo and food was pretty much the same.
