Rangoon Burmese Kitchen - Honolulu

Place is perfect. Food is outrageously good. It's actually a good deal compared to a lot in the city, especially for a nice sit down place. And the staff is really really really good at their jobs and very kind. We arrived there right after they had 2 20 person tables and they still kept eachother in good spirits and nice to the patrons. Definitely do not miss out on this food.i feel like I didn't mention enough how delicious the flavors were but I'm done typing. Thanks!

Opted for take out and even then, the food was great! I had never tried Burmese food before so it was a new experience.I ordered the mango salad, lemongrass prawns (appetizer , the pork belly, and the fisherman’s stew (not pictured .Food had a strong flavor which could be intimidating for those who are not used to it, but I do recommend giving it a shot. Mango salad was my personal favorite, as everything else was just a tad on the saltier side--it was the perfect blend of savory and sweet with great texture from the cashews(? . The prawns were very tender and flavorful. The seafood in the fisherman's stew also tasted fresh. The pork belly itself was very soft, but as you can tell from the dark sauce color, the sauce itself was strong and salty. I do prefer more milder flavor, so take my review with a grain of salt (no pun intended .

Wow, what a find. Stumbled here because the Thai restaurant we were going to was closed, and you don't find too many Burmese restaurants, so we decided to try it. Having been to Myanmar, I think this is an Americanized version that's heavy on the sauces and herbs, but it was all cooked to perfection with a ton of flavor. Highly recommend the manadalay pork curry and coconut rice, its super coconutty. Seems understaffed because it was hard getting the server's attention with them consistently busy, but the food came out extremely quick, and they kept the water filled. Would definitely recommend!

The answer is a resounding YES. In love and can't wait to come back.UPDATE:I came back, and actually took photos this time. This is my favorite food/restaurant on island, hands down, and there's a lot of good places to eat. Rangoon provides the most incredible comfort food to feed the soul. The flavors, textures and aromas are engulfing. My little sister does not like curry or any spice outside of salt and pepper and she loved EVERYTHING (including the coconut curry).Staff is so sweet, I will be back often. You certainly have gained a regular. Thank you so much for introducing such wonderful Myanmar cuisine to me!

This is hands down my favorite restaurant on island, each bite is filled with bursting flavors. Recommend the coconut rice for everyone. Drink were strong delicious. Loved our servers!! Amazing food, amazing service, I will be returning!!Food: 5/5
