OMG this place is da bomb!
My favourite restaurant in Bagan. So good I ate here twice.
Eat like a local, burmese food.
Love the experience.
Main dish is around 4,000-5,000 kyat and the side dish is 300-500kyat
You pay for the dishes that you eat.
Lots of local eat here.
I would definitely recommend.
The most selections compared to other shop where they usually charge your 3000-6000 kyat and serves 6-12 type of dishes.
Food is spicier compared to other shop. Please take note and ask the owner which 1 you should avoid if you cant eat spicy.There is 1 side dish which is grinded bird eye chilli. Becareful.
Highly recommended for people want to try a variety of genuine Myanmar/Burma foods which are commonly eaten by local people.
The servers bring about 20 different small dishes of food onto your table, you pay for foods you ate, I guess even if you ate just a little bit from the dish you have to pay for the entire dish.
Very reasonable price, no rip off tourists here, only the dish of large prawns (2 pieces) is expensive, costs K4000, but most other dishes are from K500 to K1500 each.
The place is clean, well decorated and spacious. The front dining room is not enclosed so there is no air conditioning, I don't know if there is another dinning room at the back, maybe there is one.
Though there were flies hanging around my table, I had to constantly brush them away, this is not restaurant's fault due to flies and mosquitoes are common in this town.
Good efficient staffs, serve very fast; I went there at near closing time (closes at 6pm) when there were only two other customers.
Foods in dishes are already cooked and ready to be served at anytime or when customers arrive, so all foods are likely not hot or warm, but OK because most days are very hot, anyway foods are better not hot when eating them.
Meal comes with a plate of rice and a bowl of chicken broth soup.
I had about 5 dishes, at least two dishes were meat and fish, no prawns, total was K3800, I was almost full, that was a real good deal for the different genuine Myanmar cuisines I tasted, though each dish had very small amount but was perfect because I wanted to try as many as possible without paying much.
This place is much better than the famous Feel restaurant in Yangon, this place has better foods and dinning setting with real local luxury feel. It is an experience for foreigners who want real Myanmar foods at a decent dinning envirnoment but don't want to be overcharged at high tourist prices.
There are some other restaurants nearby, make sure this is the right one.
This place has been newly renovated, it is a lot nicer now. Older photos show the place before renovation.
They have a variety of Burmese dishes and juices. They will put all the dishes and side dishes and soup on the table as soon as you sit down. However, everything you touch is charged. A few years ago, side dishes and soup were free. Now, it's 300 kyats per side dish and the price for meat dishes varied. The soup is also 300 kyats. After you finish eating, they'll give you honey bananan dessert and it's CHARGED as well. It's 1000 kyats. They won't say anything to you but if you touch it, you need to pay for it. So, you better ask them if the dishes will be charged or not before you eat them. Their fried chicken is good but you need to tell them to reheat it. If not, they'll just give you the fried one.

Pay as you go restaurant, you don't need to order anything, they will just put on your tables. Little spicy not suitable for kids. Everything come with price tag, even the stand free soup in other shop. The taste is ok, definitely recommend bamboo shoots, bitter melon, tomatoes paste these are all side dishes. Mutton main course is not bad but all items on menu are oily. Average person would cost 3-4$.
Good local middle Myanmar dishes. Less than 0.3$ per small sized dishes and can choose 10 to 20 variety to try different taste. Mutton and beans are favourate. But beef and pork, my favourates are not available. Can order fruits and tea as last snacks.
