This small restaurant by the street, is the best restaurant for you to have lunch like a local. Do not expect a fancy restaurant, but a normal Burmese restaurant with good food and a friendly and great service! Thank you! From the couple from the country of Cristiano Ronaldo!

We had the Myanmar Tempura Vegetables and the Angela Salad. Both were good, however, the glass of wine that I ordered was so small, that I sent it back as it was not worth paying for. I ordered a beer instead, but if you like wine, go to any other restaurant on the street that serves wine and you will get a bigger glass.

Bibo

Reviewed By Ryan T

Delicious food, super friendly staff, and a very chill atmosphere made this our go-to spot in Bagan. Thu, the owner, was lovely to talk to, and their staff took very good care of us without being intrusive.
The avocado salad (Burmese guacamole, basically) was the best we'd had throughout the country, and their cocktail game was on point. Give the Gin Basil Smash a try if you need something refreshingly different.
Situated away from the main restaurant drag, it's the perfect place to wind down the day and enjoy some peace and quiet along with delicious food.

We went for the „local style“ where one orders a main curry, some greens and you get 3 sides on top plus a soup as a starter. Everything tasted amazing! Be careful with the spicy though ;)

Situated on the first floor is this lovely coffee shop. It immediately reminds you of a western style cafe with modern decor and comfortable Seating. Very clean with excellent wifi, it’s easy to switch of and enjoy the ambiance.
Coffee is excellent, as is the food and the higher prices are justified.

Reviewed By sleepybexhill - Bexhill-on-Sea, United Kingdom

Clean, pleasant place. However, we found the Seating appalling. You either had wooden seats on which you had to sit bolt upright and tables which you couldn’t put your legs under, or low tables that you had to sit cross legged at - nightmare. As for the food, a restricted menu, which I like since they can focus of doing the food well and it will be fresh. It was presented well, but for the price it wasn’t as good as I expected. The best part of the evening was the music - loved it.

Reviewed By Balance_bound - London, United Kingdom

Great family run restaurant with an extensive vegeterian menu. We choose the eggplant curry, fried corn in coconut cream, vegetable fried rice and fruit lassis. The owner sent a few extra treats out as well. Everything was delicious, good sized portion and reasonably priced.
The service was friendly and geniune. Great recommendations on menu selections.
The restaurant is cosy, clean and easy to find.
