Yoma Burmese Foods: Reviews & Ratings
Must try place in Boston! It’s a vegetarian’s paradise! They don’t have a restricted veg menu but a two page long menu with so many varieties! I love their Burmese tofu salad and coconut tofu noodle soup Their plata and curry dishes are also amazing! They do a great job in delivery too and their restaurant ambience is clean and pleasant! Kudos to team yoma for being my go to place!
This was my first adventure into Burmese food and it was worth the try. A small intimate place with amazing, hearty food. Highly recommend the pea plata and chicken biryani. Will absolutely eat here again, need to add it to the take out rotation.
The pickled tea salad was delicious! We got a couple of the noodle dishes which were also very good. The restaurant is very vegetarian friendly - I will come back to try more dishes!
I absolutely loved the food at Yoma Burmese Foods! As a vegetarian, I was thrilled with the options available. I ordered the Spices Mountain and Rainbow Noodles, and both were absolutely delicious. The flavors were bold, fresh, and perfectly balanced. The spices added just the right kick without being overwhelming. The Rainbow Noodles were a beautiful mix of textures and colors, making every bite exciting. Highly recommend for anyone looking to try amazing Burmese cuisine! Will definitely be coming back!
Hole in the wall place with delicious food! Specifically enjoyed the tea salad and rainbow noodles (both vegetarian). The tea salad was truly one of a kind (a mix of green tea leaves, corn, lettuce, tomatoes, peanuts and sesame oil), tasted amazing. Rainbow noodles was a mix of 3 types of noodles, also very yummy. The currys were also packed with flavor (got the chicken/okra and pumpkin/tofu) but I enjoyed the salad and noodles much more. Will be back to try the coconut noodle soup which seemed like a popular pick! Service is a little long during peak dinner time but worth the wait.
Great authentic Burmese food. Great service Good atmosphere You should try it. It's much tastier than Chinese. This place is a gem. Having lived in Burma (Myanmar), I can rate the food as wonderful. Please block the wind and cold by adding a barrier at the door. Thank you for the bidet in the bathroom.
While this restaurant is a little unorthodox, you’re missing out if you’ve never eaten here. The pickled tea salad is truly special and scrumptious. The fresh, lime-enhanced flavor and crunchy texture make it a rich dining experience. The pumpkin chicken curry is also delightful. All the food is light and healthy while still being packed with flavor. On top of that, it’s reasonably priced! The service takes a little getting used to. I believe they recently transitioned from counter service to wait service and are still getting the hang of it. Also, the space feels more like a cafe than a restaurant due to the assemblage of tasty Burmese ingredients for sale right in the middle of it all. However, I assure you this is one of the best restaurants on the block, and it’s your loss if you walk by without having a taste...
I love this restaurant. It’s small, cozy, has the nicest people working there, and serves incredible food. Get the tea salad and rainbow noodles! The tea salad was savory and packed with these delish fried chickpeas. The rainbow noodles were so tasty and packed full of flavor and different noodle textures. Will be recommending to all my friends and will be back! For those with nut allergies, this place offers peanut free alternatives I believe.
