  Delicious! Visiting from Lewisville, Texas for a soccer tournament with boys originally from Myanmar (Burma) who speak Hakha Chin. Picking out food when traveling away from home is always hard. So glad we found this place! Everything we ate was delicious!!!

  As Tulsa is home to one of the nation's largest Zomi Burmese population, it comes with no surprise that a Burmese restaurant would inevitably grace its presence in the food and restaurant community.
  
  We've dined at this fine establishment multiple times and have always left with full bellies and satisfied cravings for Burmese food. For those who have not tried it before, I would say it most resembles a mix of Chinese, Thai, and Indian foods that ends up with a very unique and one-of-a-kind taste.
  
  We've had their La Phe Tot (tea leaf salad), which is considered their national dish. It is different from most salads because the taste and flavor is mixed in with a variety of nuts and tea leaves. As someone who grew up with a tea drinking family though, the taste easily grew on me with each bite.
  
  We also really enjoy having their Moh Hin Khaa (served only on Thursdays), which is also considered another one of their national dishes. It is a vermicelli noodle soup with catfish chowder. The broth is wonderful and creates a fresh seafood taste to the soup.
  
  We also had their Bak Kut Tee (pork rib soup served with rice on the side, served only on Wednesday and Saturdays), which is actually more of a Malaysian dish, but it definitely worth trying because the broth and pork is cooked to tender perfection.
  
  As an appetizer, I also recommend their Palata, which is their specialty made friend bread with a delicious curry sauce on the side.
  
  We've also tried their Kyi Oo, Myi Oo Mee Shii, Shan Noodles, and Nan Gyi, which are a variety of yummy noodle and noodle soup dishes combined with a different assortment of vegetables, meats, and seafood.

  I have never had Burmese before but I thought I would give it a try. This restaurant is family run and the staff are very friendly. I tried a couple of different dishes and I was pleasantly surprised. The flavors were good and the seasoning was on point. My favorite part was the appetizer. I cannot remember the name but it was basically a vegetable stew folded in a fried wonton pocket. It came with a semi spicy dipping sauce. Very tasty. I will be back again.

  My friend from Burmese suggested me to find a Burmese restaurant in only Tulsa. I think this is 3.5 of 5, only better foods than service and atmosphere.
  
  I impressed that My Oo Mee Shii expects that a heavy clay pot, not bad. I figured out it was too thick with shrimps, three whitefish, udon noodles, tofu, and cabbage, and yellows corns. Sometimes I don't like veggies in the pot. NO WAY.
  
  The atmosphere is ok-ok, not look like a friendly and fancy. A bit weird, you know it was pretty old 80's things inside the atmosphere. One problem, I'm not sure if they already have experience with deaf people before me. I was waiting for their service, like 30 minutes, and I was alone in surrounded Burmese folks stare at me... I know it was a bit awakened that I came here for curious around with Burmese culture.

  As authentic as it gets. Whenever my parents are in OKC, they love making the trip to Tulsa for delicious, affordable Burmese cuisine. If you visit larger cities like SF and NYC, you'll have heard of Burmese food as it's hotly trending nowadays (and crazy pricey).
  
  Locally owned and operated, the restaurant definitely has that mom and pop feel so be patient and understanding when it comes to service and you'll be treated to some of the best that Burmese cusine has to offer. 5 stars for being the most authentic Burmese experience in Oklahoma!
  
  Our faves include: moh hin khaa, nan gyi, coconut noodle soup, tofu to, and the myi oo mee shii!
