Burma Love wasn’t San Francisco’s first Burmese restaurant, but it’s undoubtedly the hippest. Owner Desmond Tan is passionate about the beloved dishes from his homeland and innately knows how to make …
Vegetable Curry tasted nice but no way is it worth the price. Portion is small. Same goes for the Coconut Rice. Good food but incredibly expensive relative to other Burmese places

I have been ordering this dish for years, and used to pick it up consistently when I used to live near by. For some reason they changed the recipe, largely reduced its size and it became very unpleasant.
The sauce has about two fingers of oil sitting on top, the noodles are now flat and soggy, the wonton wraps are tiny, and the cilantro arrives all mushy and wet due to the new packages.
It is sad because it was one of my favorite dishes!

Tea Leaf Salad was ok, but I cannot understand the price point being so high for a small box of shredded cabbage, a tiny bit of romaine, some halved grape tomatoes, and a few jalapeno slices. Dressing was fine, if a bit bland, and very oily. Crunch topping was the best part. How is this the #1 most liked dish? 5/10
Chicken Kebat. Best dish we ordered. This was a generous portion of protein. Good flavor, not anything that will stay in my memory. 6/10
Shan Noodles with Shrimp. The sauce and accoutrements were well seasoned, but got lost in the bland noodles. Noodles tasted like supermarket box spaghetti cooked in unseasoned water. The shrimp were also correctly cooked, but tiny. 2/10
Coconut Rice. It was coconut flavored rice. Properly cooked. 6/10

While all the regular entrees were delicious... the Tea Leaf Salad which has been our all time favorite salad was so mediocre because the dressing/pesto was only a half full containers for the two salads unlike the normal full ones and it made for a bland, disappointing, and expensive salad.

I payed $89 for 3 shrimps in the superstar shrimp, also just filled with onions that don't look sautéed. The minced chicken looked undercooked and not presented well. The only decent thing in our order is the rainbow salad. But for $89 would not recommend!
