Definitely more Chinese than Burmese, and many of the servers can't even pronounce the names of the dishes correctly. What nominally Burmese dishes they have tend to taste like Chinese interpretations of the real thing. The closest decent Burmese restaurant to the South Bay is Innya Lake, in San Bruno. Sorry, I don't remember the address offhand.

Didn't like it and won't go back, but this is just one data point and I have no idea if I ordered the wrong dishes or got the bad chef or what.
