    Here’s the good: you get very large portions. As far as the food, we were disappointed in the flavors and preparation. We’ve eaten at several similar restaurants, and this seemed more like chain food than authentic Burmese or Nepalese.  We asked the server for recommendations as mentioned in the website and he seemed unsure. Finally recommended the Burma love mint, which we shared, but again very little flavor but plenty of heat.

    The host and bartender couldn’t be bothered to be welcoming at all. The food was great. The nearby streets feel like a zombie apocalypse at night.
