Customer's reviews

This was the first time I’ve tried Burmese cuisine and I was totally in love! I highly recommend ordering the tea leaf salad for its crunchy texture and delicious flavor! The paratha was delicious to start the meal before diving into some noodles. We tried the street noodles and the summer noodle salad and the whole party loved these dishes for their freshness and unique sauce flavors. I don’t think you could go wrong with any dishes at this restaurant. On top of the delicious food, the service was amazing. Our server was attentive and sweet, and she gave us the best recommendations. Next time I come back to SF I will be coming here for sure! ~ Marissa G
Besides the staff being super polite and helpful, Karaweik has tremendous food in a casual setting. I have eaten here several times and all of the dishes that I have tried are excellent. The lamb dishes are perfectly spiced, but my personal favorite is the royal green tea (Burmese) salad. They do a great job at flavoring the green tea dressing while making sure that the deep fried split peas and garlic aren't greasy. The balance of nuts and seeds gives it almost a meaty texture (the dried shrimp dust helps too). They use more romaine than cabbage, which gives it a different feel than more "cabbagey" Burmese green tea salads, but each bite is very balanced. I always walk away satisfied with this little gem, and they do a great job with take out due to Covid. ~ jason b
April 7, 2022 - Had to update my review to alert the masses that, according to Yelp, Karaweik is closed temporarily until May 2! I got nervous thinking they were closed forever. Phew! My original July 2021 review: Wonderful! Some of the previous reviews sounded too good to be true, so I went in skeptical….but the food was ACTUALLY that good! The tea leaf salad, paratha, and garlic noodles are not to be missed. As an earlier reviewer said, your eyes will roll back to the back of your head! Not to mention, the staff was super kind. Can’t wait to come back. ~ Meenu S
