Didn't know food could be this good
There is absolutely no comparison. I am a vegetarian and everything I've tried has been amazing. Be SURE to try the deliciously cold vegetarian superstar noodles.

vegetarian?
When I first moved to the Inner Richmond, I went to dinner here with my sister. I ordered vegetarian samusa soup to share and the vegetarian version of the rainbow salad. The salad was wonderful and I highly recommend it. On the other hand, the soup had meat in it and bones. I am a vegetarian and found this upsetting. I never revisited the restaurant again, because I felt like their idea of vegetarian was not actually vegetarian (which happens a lot more than a person would think). It unfortunately made me really suspect of the rest of their vegetarian food. It is too bad, because the soup sounded like I would have liked it.

Perfume with your food?
I love Burmese food, and Superstar definitely has great food. But it is so crowded and for some reason diners there love to wear heavy perfumes. I go to another Burmese restaurant where the food is just as good, but it isn't as "trendy" or whatever, and you can actually sit and eat with the people you go with rather than being crowded in with a bunch of strangers who might be wearing too much heavy perfumes. Unfortunately, because it is so small, Superstar gets a pass from me.

Disappointed
After reading such great reviews and always seeing a line outside, I was so excited to try Burma Superstar. However I was disappointed, because it wasn't as good as I had expected it would be. The samusas were great, but the basil chicken was only so-so and the coconut curry noodles were a little strange (I didn't finish it). I don't think I'll go back.. I'd rather have Indian samosas and Thai-style noodles and basil chicken.

Great all around!
I really enjoyed my first time here. The food is fresh and the quality is great. A lot of interesting and different tastes to explore. Recommended for everyone to try.

Just go.
Yes the wait is long, but also, the food is as good as everyone says it is. Especially the samusa soup, which is heaven in a bowl. I recommend walking to Green Apple books and killing time there while you wait for your summons back to your table.

Best Burmese in the City!
And one of my favorite restaurants in the city. The Samosa Soup is amazing, as is the tea leaf and rainbow salads - pretty much all of the authentic burmese dishes on the menu are fabulous! It gets super crowded on the weekends and many evenings during the week, so there can be long waits, but its just as good when you get it to go.
