Amazing. Had Duck SeeJet and Bait Noodles. Great portion good price. Great ambience. wonderful service.

Visited this restaurant to try Burmese food and overall, I was satisfied. I like the first dish more. It's made with a thick noodle, kinda like cọng bún bò. So it got the chewy texture from the noodle, the meat texture, the soft texture from the egg, and also some crispy texture from the fried thingy. The seasoning is good, too. The 2nd dish is more on the light side; it doesn't have a lot of seasoning, and it's just noodles with duck. I'd definitely come back to try other dishes. The chef came out and greeted us at some point, and asked of everything was good. Then she saw that we were eating dried noodles so she asked if we wanted some pork bone broth and gave us some.

We have been interested in this establishment for a while and wanted to try Burmese food so we ordered lunch to go. The palata appetizer was delicious but I was hoping it would be a little saucier for the pancakes. The chicken and potatoes curry went well with the rice. The seejet noodles were flavorful but I was pretty disappointed with the quantity. I would definitely return and try out other rice dishes.

I would like to try a bunch of different items from the menu so on my second visit I went for something different. This time I got an order of potato samosa and the coconut chicken noodle soup. I thought I'd be getting one big Samosa however it was a handful of mini phyllo dough potato bites with a spicy dipping sauce which were really good however they got a bit soggy because of the packaging. The coconut soup from the noodles was outrageously good. In fact it was so good that I had a bit leftover and saved it to use in another dish because I couldn't bear to throw it away. It was a plentiful portion with all the different flavors and textures you would hope for. Can't wait to keep making my way through the menu and finding the next amazing dish. Aside from the food, the staff is incredibly kind.

First time trying Burmese food. Ordered the seejet noodles (duck), beef curry with coconut rice, and palata with chicken. If you have never had it, the flavors are similar to Thai and Indian. We ordered this meal for delivery. The beef curry and palata with chicken were my favorites, which were rich in flavor and comforting. The duck noodles were mild and less flavorful than the other dishes, but I enjoyed the textures. Portion sizes were generous.

Burmese food has been in my bookmarks for quite some time now and I finally got to get a taste! I called my order in for pick-up and was told it would be ready in 15-20 minutes. I ordered the Lunch Special ($13): Bait Noodles dish and fried tofu appetizer. I also added in the Burmese Iced Milk Tea ($4). Lunch specials are available Tuesday-Friday from 11am-3pm. The restaurant is fairly small with only 4-5 tables for dine-in and it's easy to miss when you're driving by. It shares a parking lot with other businesses. When I walked in, I was greeted by Sato, the owner, and his kind employees. He was so sweet and even gave me a bag of complimentary Sato chips (original Ruffle chips with chili flakes and other spices). I really, really wanted to give them 5 stars, but the food just didn't hit home. -Bait Noodles (fried flat noodles with assorted seafood and sausage): The noodles were oily and didn't have much flavor unless I added a ton of chili sauce, which they only gave me a small amount of. The seafood (shrimp and calamari) was fresh, though. My favorite part was the sweet sausage. -Fried Tofu: I expected it to be a lot crispier. It tasted okay. I wouldn't order this again. -Burmese Iced Tea with Milk: I would have enjoyed this more if it was sweeter. It tastes like a classic black milk tea, but with a much stronger tea taste. Would I give them a second shot? Yes... I need to explore more dishes. The menu isn't too extensive and focuses mainly on noodles and curries (both of which I'm a fan of), so there MUST be something I'll love...Most entrees are $14-$16, which is a steal.

Let me just say, I will ABSOLUTELY NOT be the person who puts a blemish on Amayar Kitchen's 5 star rating because I have nothing but praise for this gem of a Burmese restaurant. I first heard about Amayar when Yelp came out with some variation of their top restaurants list a few years back and Amayar was somewhere close or at the top of that list. From my experience, they might as well have been the top dog there. I won't beat around the bush with my thoughts because everything about our experience was absolutely FANTASTIC and it checked every box in the book when it came to the expectations we had. Even though we had never tried Burmese food, the whole restaurant and the food just felt and tasted authenticate because of the uniqueness of it all. We dropped in for lunch on a scorcher of a Friday afternoon around 12:15pm and there was only 1 other couple in the restaurant so we pretty much had the whole place to ourselves, especially midway through when they left. The menu was relatively simple - Appetizers, Noodles, Curries, Side Dishes, Drinks, Desserts and Lunch Specials, which was only served on Tuesday-Friday 11am-3pm. Since we had ZERO experience eating Burmese food, we did our homework ahead of time on Yelp and pretty much ordered what we thought were some of the more popular items based on previous reviews: BURMESE TEA LEAF SALAD (aka Lahpet Thoke) - I never really get excited about a salad appetizer (I mean who does?), but my goodness, this small dish was one reallllly great way to start our meal here. This combination of traditional Burmese pickled tea leaves with fried garlic, beans, sesame seeds, cabbage and tomatoes was extraordinary. To the common Burmese person, this might have been just your everyday salad, but this here is a MUST ORDER. I can't really describe the taste of the beautiful simplicity of this salad - you just have to try it for yourself. BAIT NOODLES (FRIED FLAT NOODLES WITH ASSORTED SEAFOOD AND SAUSAGE) AND POTATO SAMOSA LUNCH SPECIAL - Excellent noodles. If I had to relate it to a dish I've had before, it sort of reminded me of Pad Thai...BUT BETTER! There was some squid, shrimp, Chinese sausage and egg mixed in and, once again, so delicious. COCONUT CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP AND SPRING ROLLS LUNCH SPECIAL - Some of the best creamy coconut curry I've ever had. For full transparency, I actually did not mean to order this dish, but due to a miscommunication I lucked into enjoying this ridiculously flavorful curry chicken noodle soup. First of all, there was a lot of noodles in the order so you'll be plenty full before you begin to slurp down all of the curry (which I did). There was also some cilantro, onions mixed in to add to the flavor, but, seriously, did it really need it? Yes, I had this on a 95 degree day, but 'm sure it'd be extremely refreshing in the heart of the winter. BURMESE ICED TEA WITH MILK FALUDA - I'll comment on both of these simultaneously because they were probably the only 2 downers of the day and we should have known it wasn't in our wheelhouse of things we like. Unfortunately, both were a bit too sweet for our liking. Not to say it's not for others, but neither drink/dessert was our cup of tea (literally). The Faluda was actually a dessert, but it can be enjoyed as a drink too. As for service, they were very, very warming and welcoming. Our waiter was checking on us and engaging with us constantly. The service by him couldn't have been any better. Although the restaurant is not huge and seems fairly quiet most of the time (I pass by it frequently), don't be fooled by the lack of buzz because this is one heck of a restaurant. They don't have 5 stars on Yelp for nothing, right????? Let's just say they backed up the positive reviews they've gotten in the past in every single way possible. Will be visiting again real, real soon.

This is such a hidden gem within North Jersey, and it's my first ever Burmese restaurant. My friend and I came here around 2:30 earlier this week (right before the lunch special ends at 3 pm). The interior is small with a few tables but has a homey feel, and the customer service here is top-notch! I ordered the lunch special of the coconut chicken noodles soup with the fried tofu as my appetizer. I'd rate this a 5/5 as the fried tofu was fried to perfection, and the noodle soup had a very mellow yet tasty coconut flavor throughout the dish. The noodles were not overdone, and I loved the "chip" that was placed on the edge of the bowl that was crunchy and added a great textural element to the dish. This ranks as one of my favorite bowls of noodles I've had this year. I would def come back again to try their other items on the menu! Everything looks really good!

I've been wanting to check out this spot for a while because there aren't a whole lot (if any) Burmese restaurants I know of in the area. I've only had it a handful of times but love trying new foods. Hubby and I came in for lunch around 1:30 on a Saturday. There were probably only one or two other tables there at the time. We started out with Sato chips, which are chips with their chili seasoning. I have a feeling they're just store bought chips tossed with seasoning, which didn't really feel worth it for $4. Next up, we had the tea leaf salad, which was good. Though, it's not for everybody because it has a very nutty taste. For my main, I went with the Bait Noodles (stir-fried flat noodles with seafood and sausage). This was really good, especially with the chili sauce they gave us. It had the wok hei, and the squid was surprisingly tender, and not chewy. It reminded me of char kway teow. Hubby had the beef curry, which he enjoyed. I liked the curry but the beef was too dry for me. Next time, I'll be back to try the mohinga and the kyae oh noodle soup!

PROs- different cuisine , fantastic service , hot and fresh food CONs- less spicy , table space , less veggie options Was in Paramus and we like to taste different cuisine . Was looking at Google maps and found this Burmese Cuisine with good ratings . 7-8 of us went and mostly everyone liked it . Good location. Parking available .. the place was a bit cramped though. Wish the tables were more spacious ! Service was very good . Smiling faces and quick food. Spring rolls were so awesome . My friends had soupy noodles and they liked it . They also had potato chicken and it wasn't spicy at all. Looked spicy but absolutely bland.. all other dishes were good . Not much of vegetarian dishes though... overall we liked it though. Will probably go back if I'm in that area .
