Best Burmese Restaurant in San Francisco · San Francisco, CA
Bay of Burma brings the bright, layered flavors of Burmese cooking to San Francisco's SoMa — built on turmeric, ginger and lemongrass and served family-style. Its fermented tea-leaf salad, samosa soup and pineapple chicken rice have quickly made it a neighborhood favorite.
A young standout already drawing devoted regulars, Bay of Burma is a 2026 Centurion Award winner in San Francisco.
Each Centurion Award is a dated record tied to one year’s evaluation — earned annually, never carried over. Open a year for the full citation and verification details.
Awards run one calendar year and renew only if the business clears the bar again. Selection is by published criteria, never for sale.

This page is the standing record for Bay of Burma (2026). It was not bought, voted on, or sponsored — only winners are published, and an award that stops holding up is revoked, not quietly removed. For hours, bookings, and live reviews, go straight to the business itself.
If you’ve put in the years, you may already clear the bar. Evaluation is free, private, and never for sale.
