Mandalay is a not-so-hidden gem. Those who know it, LOVE IT. I ordered the Pork & Pickled Mango Hin, which is similar to a goulash, that comes with rice. Then an order of Chicken Cilantro with rice and of course to top it off, Sticky Rice W/Brown Sugar & Coconut (Vegan) and Shwe Ji - everything is so delicious! The Shwe Ji is like a bread pudding. I've only eaten here twice: once before they closed and now. I can't wait to branch out and see what others really like.

The food is absolutely delicious! 100% will order again. Beef Sour MustardMandalay Chicken were among our dishes, both total standouts with piquant, interesting sauces. Also highly recommend the Ginger Salad

Pros: Food is generally great tasting and service quick. Spice levels are accurately stated, and hit the spot for those that love spicy food.
Cons: Forgot to include the beverages that were a part of the order. Some items were very over priced on the app compared to the store price, such as the tofu ohno that had a dollar extra charge for each ingredient ($3) on DoorDash, versus the $1.00 extra charge for all 3 ingredients (greenpepper, onion, and tomato) in the restaurant. We added the green pepper, and it only included 3 small pieces of the pepper in the order. Some of the ordering options were also a bit confusing as formatted on the app.

Mandalay is the best in the business at what they do. They have unique dishes from a unique place in the world, prepared expertly and deliciously. You won't get food from Myanmar anywhere else in the DC area of this culinary quality. I recommend Chicken 11, Pork Salad, Spring Roll Salad and Noodle #1. Try something different here, and by different, I mean BETTER.
