Not sure why people highly recommended this place. After seeing the next table ordering, I understand that they provided a set menu for every dish you order. Which I guess the reason for the price being so expensive. But it is almost 4 times more expensive than the next road restaurant. What about the food waste that need to be thrown away from every guest?. I think only a few can chew all the side dishes down (firstly because the side dishes come in 5 variants plus the vegetable+sambal, secondly because it might be too spicy or salty for some, lastly because it was all very rich and oily).
I think it's not worthed that the hefty price paid, end up wasted away.
Picture 1:
We ordered tea leaves salad and prawn curry. The salad is 3000kyats, the curry is 6500kyats, plus 500kyats tax (you got a sticker on your bill). totalling for 10,000kyats for a two dish, with heaps of side dishes and unlimited rice. But, no tea served at all nor it was offered. The staff pushed to sell fruit juices and alcoholic beverages. While it is a common tradition in all restaurant I went in Myanmar, that the tea is freely available for all customers. So it is quiet a shock to find a restaurant with Myanmar's cuisines speciality doesn't follow this custom.
Picture 2:
Earlier I bought the exact same dish, the tea leaves salad, in the same portion at the Moe Wai Kyaw Coffee just on the next street (they are also a restaurant, not only selling coffees. With AC and non-AC dining areas. And, free hot tea). The tea leaves salad there was only 800 kyats. And more importantly taste wise, the 800kyats tea leaves salad, taste much better.
Regarding staffs, they were friendly as all Myanmar people are, but their conversational English was still difficult to be practical. I was expecting for a tourist-targeted restaurant, they would have been quiet fluent.
Good Myanmar food. I can not say that it is much better than street food but prices are higher. Side dishes are good.
When I was there there were almost only locals.
Service is super quick, waiters are friendly and attentive.
Restaurant is nice and clean.
The location on Google maps is wrong. So you can ask locals and they will help you to find.
非常推薦！性價比高且好吃的緬甸傳統美食體驗！Highly recommended! Must to try if you got a chance to visit mandalay. Great Myanmar transitional food in a really fair price. There are many small side dishes along with your orders. There are many locals dinning next to us and the food was testy. We had the tea leave salad ( the dish in every tea shop) and fried chicken with special sauces. After food, there was a sweet treat for free if you like to try. Great experiences.
Maybe this food remarkably well represents local gastronomical tradition. But for someone who's not into local traditions, it's just poorly executed meals
I ordered 4 positions (without drinks) and none was enjoyable to me - being a big fan of Chinese, Indian and Thai cuisines - but some dished were interesting: never heard that tea leaves can make a soup! (They call it salad)

In the beginning we thought it’s a bit expensive, but actually the service you receive value much more!
We ordered one chicken curry 4.5k and two juice and you can see what they brought for us! The main food and 7 side dishes and a soup for free! Seems like Rice is for free only first time and when you ask again they’ll charge you for sth like 2.5k!! For not saying this i remove one star!
There’s aircon inside which is very relaxing and cool after a long walk in hot Mandalay!

Yummy food but some dishes were hot AF 🌶🔥. They made a special soup for us without meat since we're vegetarian. All dishes seem to come with a ton of side dishes so order one per person at most. Bill for two with drinks was around 10k.
One of the Nice Traditional Food Center in Mandalay! Fresh Indoor Atmosphere, Tasty & Variety traditional foods, Very Nice Service & Fair price. So i love that traditional restaurant.
Decent and clean place with air-con. Very delicious, spicy and flavorful. They offer a wide variety of Traditional Burmese food and the price is cheap. Service was great and staffs were friendly. Overall it was a great experience.
