Bad service, horrible food!!!!!!

by kadabra524 at Citysearch

I do not recommend this place to anyone. The food is lousy, every dish I order was horrible: the tea leaf salad, the coconut noodle soup, and the spicy fried cat fish. Bad experience!!! Service was lousy, we sat ourselves and grabbed our own menus.

Tasty and delightful.

My brother took me here last night, and it was wonderful! I'd never had Burmese food before, and the traditional tea leaf salad was amazing. So delicious, in fact, that I got another order to go and dropped it by a friend's (I knew she'd like it). I also had a red curry beef, which was fantastic, and very much like a beef rendang. The noodles were also good, but very much like lo mein. I'd stick to the Burmese style here, and Don't come here for the ambience, however. Much like my beloved Thai "Sunshine Restaurant", there's a blaring television, and the place is so anassuming you might miss it if you're not looking carefully. If you like food adventures, definately make this trip. I'm excited to go back! That salad is truly addictive (must be the caffeine)!!

• Pros: Delicious, and lovely waiter (owner?).
• Cons: Blaring TV in the background.

Great tea leaf salad

by takecake at Citysearch

I fell in love with tea leaf salad at a restaurant in Maryland (suburban DC) when I was living there for a few years...I came to Yoma just for that staple and theirs totally wowed me. I have yet to go back for a full meal but totally anticipate the rest of the menu to impress.
