Amayar Kitchen

This is a unique treasure of a restaurant. The only Burmese restaurant in NJ is a must try. This was the first time we tried Burmese food, and owner/chef was lovely with his hospitality. Food was amazing as well. If anyone has tried Kerala food, the taste resemblance of Burmese food was a pleasant surprise. Tea leaf salad, mohinga, palata with chicken curry were all delicious. Definitely try the grass jelly juice.

We try different restaurants for our weekly get-together and ended up in this wonderful Burmese restaurant for the first time. It’s a pity we only discovered it now but we will definitely make up by going there more frequently. Parking was easily available and we were seated quickly even without reservation. The place is not too big so not sure how crowded they get during busy hours as we went for early dinner middle of the week. We were welcomed by the friendly owner and made to feel at home at the onset. We were given suggestions for food and they all turned out yummy. The free chips they give while waiting for the order was so good, tasty with a hint of spice. The service is fast. This is a real gem of a restaurant in Maywood!

We had a delicious experience here. Service is great, food was delicious and fairly priced. We will definitely be coming back! Faluda is so tasty, great for those who love rosewater flavor. Balachuang is the perfect crisp accompaniment to rice for the extra texture and spice.

Good burmese food. Very authentic and accomodating chef

One of my favorite places! Home cooking. Owner is usually there and talks to everyone and gets to know his guests. Food is so good you dream about it! Don’t forget the hot milk tea…wow! Vegetarian options: Tofu made without soy Dietary restrictions: They ask if you have any allergies to anything before ordering and they can make things however you need it

I have only gotten takeout from Amayer Kitchen and it’s delicious food. The owner always makes vegan versions of dishes for me. Bait Noodles is my favorite along with fried tofu (how is it so good???). But my family loves everything we order from there. The owner is always bustling about and overseeing everything-you can tell he takes pride in his cooking. Fresh, delicious, and a bit different. Highly recommended.

Cooked with love. I felt like I walked into a Burmese home - the hospitality and service were top notch only to be exceeded by the delicious flavors. We ordered the Nanjee noodles, Burmese tea leaf salad, and chicken & potato curry with coconut rice. The noodles had pleasant citrus overtones but the chicken and potato curry is the real winner!! Drop what you are doing and give this gem of a place a taste.

The shop owner is very kind

The owner really goes the extra mile to make your experience so much better.
