"A no-frills, welcoming spot to try some wonderful Burmese food. The tea leaf salad and pyay paratha (crispy roti on top of chicken-potato curry) are both strong bets, but Tharaphu also serves some hard-to-find dishes like tofu nway, a creamy tofu porridge with noodles." - Janelle Bitker

We got the family style dish for $25 which was super filling. The curry pork was the best dish in the meal. It had a good amount of flavor. We weren't super impressed with the tea leaf salad but the samosas were solid. Definitely not as good as Burma Superstar but much more economical.

Food taste is the only redeeming factor. Chicken coconut soup is decent and the fish chowder noodle soup was alright. Service is extremely slow. Took 10 minutes to be seated with many empty tables. No water refills was offered. Took a long time to get the check and even longer for it to be collected.

Really good food. The tea leaf salad was authentic and tasted just did in Myanmar. The curries were delicious and not to spicy, the only think I didn't love was the grass jelly drink. It was interesting, but not great

Such delicious and flavorful mix of curry, seasonings and rice. Never heard of Coconut Rice, that was a surprise yet palatable. I would bring friends here again.

Had the tofu nwe noodles. Hard to describe but I enjoyed it! Would be really great on a cold or rainy day. Waitress said it was vegetarian.

Wonderful Burmese food in a casual and affordable setting. Enjoyed the tea leaf salad and the chicken curry noodle soup dish! Service was great and the place wasn't too busy. Thank you!

The service was great. I tried the coconut noodle soup I wish it had more coconut milk flavour.

This is outstanding. We tried 3 of the salads and the braised pig intestines. Salads were flavorful and balanced heat, salt and spice. Fish cake salad and the tea leaf was outstanding. The chickpea tofu one was good but pales in comparison. The pig intestines are something I never had. Lot of star anise, coriander and thick thick broth. Really sweet service.
