Small SoMa Burmese spot delivering richly flavored curries, standout salads, and warm, owner-led hospitality at fair prices; tight seating and occasional service hiccups noted.
Bay of Burma earns its A- grade through exceptional food quality—richly spiced curries and signature dishes like tea leaf salad consistently impress—paired with attentive, owner-led service that guides diners through Burmese cuisine with genuine warmth. The tight dining room prevents higher distinction, but strong consistency and deep customer loyalty confirm this SoMa gem delivers reliable, soulful dining that exceeds typical neighborhood restaurant standards.
One caveat: Very limited seating; expect tight quarters and possible wait at peak times
