Absolutely delicious! One of my favorite Burmese restaurants in SF. Definitely worth a visit (and many more)
this used to be one of my favorite places to get thai food in the city! their pineapple fried rice was heaven, and pad thai was incredible. however, not sure if there's a new chef or rotating cooks or if the recipes have been reworked but lately it has been hit or miss for me. the recipes are inconsistent and sometimes not as tasty as they used to be. for example, the pineapple fried rice used to have more of a distinct golden color and in the past few months or so, sometimes it has had the color, sometimes it hasn't. it also lacks the sweetness it used to have (which, mind you, was never overly sweet just the right amount). last night, my eggplant tofu was undercooked, with the eggplant though to chew rather than soft and slightly mushy as expected. hopefully they can get back on track soon...
(I did this because I think I deserves more than 5 stars)It was a great place that offers south East Asian food I like it first because it is local not a chain which helps with the mood plus it serves high quality food & if you are worried about the price they serve GIANT portions
l've been coming to Pagan for years and it's time for a review. The food there is delicious and tastes authentic from what I can tell. Also the prices are totally reasonable for the quality food they serve. Plus, the service is great. The young guy server was attentive and made sure everything was just right. The vibe is right with nice Burmese decor. It's one of those places where you feel like you're supporting a local family business, and that just makes the whole experience better. Everyone there works so hard, and it definitely shows. So if you're looking for delicious Burmese food, great service, and a place where you'll actually want to leave a tip because you know it's going straight to the hardworking folks behind the scenes, I recommend Pagan.
Great food, great service, great atmosphere.
The worst Tom Kha soup I’ve ever had in my life!
