Burma Superstar in Alameda

Great selections of Burmese food. Tea leaf salad and cat fish chowder are my favorite. Pork curry also tastes very flavorful with different spices. Chicken fried rice using brown rice with harder rice texture which tastes really good as well. High ceiling interior makes the space comfortable and welcoming. Highly recommended!

It was my first time trying Burmese food, and I loved it! The crunchy Burmese Style salad was tasty, and the curry was delicious too. I havent been to Myanmar so cant tell whether the food is authentic, but they did a great job making it flavorful. Youd like their food if you like Southeast Asian food in general. Id revisit when Im back in town.

This iconic place on Park in Alameda is the perfect place for a night out on Alameda when you are looking for something a little exotic but very tasty. The restaurant is located in one of those old establishment buildings full of that sense of coming from a different era.There is a decent amount of indoor seating plus plenty of outside seating in their own enclosure by the street, but quite comfortable.I often get a craving for three food offerings at this place and so I am a regular customer. A meal there would not feel complete without an appetizer of Platha bread with curry (chicken curry, but there are substitutes for vegetarian tastes or lamb, one of my favorites).They have a number of great skillets, I really like the shrimp with mango or alternatively with walnuts. They are delicious. There are plenty of other options with chicken, lamb or eggplant, so there is something for everybody.The waiters are always super friendly and accommodating. As you can tell, I highly recommend this place, both for the food and the ambience - probably my favorite Burmese restaurants.

We were walking around Alameda looking for a place to eat and What caught our attention was the amazing food smell that came from the restaurant. This is the second time I try Burmese food, and order the lamb in red curry sauce, garlic noodles, a Thai tea and beer. Everything on the menu looked appetizing and I am definitely coming back to try out more things.We asked for something spicy and they brought out this delicious red paste which was flavorful and perfect for me and they also brought some Thai red chiles which were high tier spicy.We dined outside, and had a great experience. Shout out to our young Waiter. Enjoyed his positive energy.Gracias,

During my visit, I had the pleasure of indulging in a variety of dishes and beverages that showcased the restaurants commitment to culinary excellence.Starting with the food, one notable highlight was the Tea Leaf Salad. This signature Burmese dish combined fermented tea leaves with an array of fresh vegetables and crunchy nuts, creating a harmonious blend of textures and flavors. The vibrant colors and complex taste profile made it a refreshing and satisfying choice.Moving on to the mains, the Coconut Curry Chicken stood out as a true masterpiece. The tender chicken was simmered in a creamy coconut-based curry sauce, infused with aromatic spices that tantalized the senses. The depth of flavors and the richness of the curry made it a standout dish that paired beautifully with steamed rice.To complement the savory offerings, Burma Superstar also offers a range of delightful beverages. The ginger lemonade, with its perfect balance of tangy lemon and invigorating ginger, provided a refreshing and rejuvenating option. It was a wonderful choice to cleanse the palate and enhance the dining experience.For those seeking a more adventurous drink, the ginger lemon drop cocktail was a delightful option. This creative twist on a classic cocktail combined the sweetness of a lemon drop with the aromatic essence of ginger, resulting in a captivating blend of flavors that left a lasting impression.Whether it was the satisfying main courses or the refreshing beverages, Burma Superstar showcased a harmonious balance between its food and drink offerings. The carefully crafted flavors and attention to detail in both aspects contributed to an exceptional dining experience that catered to various preferences and cravings.With its flavorful dishes and enticing beverage selection, Burma Superstar successfully combines culinary delights and refreshing drinks, ensuring a well-rounded and memorable dining experience for guests.

A place I set sail to with high expectations that were actually met SO well that I went back? Unheard of! I dont know if this matches up to food straight from Burma/Myanmar (Sorry for my ignorance about the political nature of the names, I am but a humble traveler) but its delicious in its own right. Beautiful rice, well-seasoned entrees, and delightful and friendly service, maybe Ill go a third time!

This place largely lived up to the hype for me.The sesame beef was some of the lightest, most flavorful Ive ever had. Also loved the vegetable samosas and the platha with dip.The garlic noodles and mango chicken were good, but not as memorable.There was a snafu with a drink we ordered being unavailable and no one ever offering an alternative beverage, but otherwise service was fine.

Timothy was our waiter and we had a fantastical experience. We ordered the spicy noodles and the some sort of breaded chicken ball nugget things. They were AMAZING! I highly recommend coming here and if you do, ask for Timothy!

Delicious as ever! Pratha and curry is my go-to appetizer. Everything on the menu is delicious, so there’s really no wrong choice. Cocktails are lovely and have a nicely spiced twist. Outdoor seating is good but often crowded at mealtimes.

The food was delicious ( tea salad and coconut curry soup), but the service was impeccable 👌🏿. The waiter needs to train all the waiters in the WORLD. He was courteous, the timing was perfect, he was gentle and just had awesome table service.
