Amazing Burmese food

Get the tea leaf salad and sambusas, you will not regret it! It’s not the most extensive of vegan options, but what they have is delicious and hard to come by in Indiana.

Very vegan and gluten free friendly

They have a whole page of vegan items on the menu and will make almost everything gluten free. They have gluten free soy sauce. Everything is made fresh when you order! Delicious! Highly recommend this restaurant and the owner is so friendly.

Pros: Best food and so many vegan options!, The owner is so nice and friendly , Almost everything can be made gluten free

Charming and delicious

The menu is clearly labelled with vegan items. There are a lot of options, and the food is unique and delicious. I love their tofu. The restaurant is very cute and covered with cultural decor. I love Burma Garden!

Vegan pho makes me happy

They have a really great selection of vegan and vegetarian food. If you like indian or thai food, Burmese is very similar to that but with more of an emphasis on savory flavors (in my opinion). Highly recommend this place.

SO GOOD!

My fiance and I stopped into Mandalay on our way back from a road trip. We live in Indianapolis, and now we are trying to think up ways to get back to Bloomington!

We started with the Mandalay Fritters, which were really filling and delicious fried patties made with red beans and I'm not sure what else. They came with a spicy sauce.

I got Yellow Beans and Onions, mostly because it seemed so simple and I wanted to see if it would be delicious or just basic beans and onions. I can't describe the flavor, but it was amazing. It was also very filling, and after the fritters I could barely eat any of it. I took it home and got two meals out of the leftovers.

My fiancé got the Coconut Curry Tofu dish. He loved it. It tasted good to me, a little different than other curries, but I liked my food better. :)

Overall, it was delicious and very reasonably priced. I can't wait to go back.

(PS, Happy Cow only allows a max of 4 stars for a non vegetarian restaurant. This one would definitely get the full five if I could give it.)

small but good

i spend ten days out of the year in bloomington, and look forward to eating at mandalay at least twice every visit. the coconut curry tofu is excellent. it's pretty much my go to dish, and i've never been disappointed. i do wish there were more vegan options though.

Pros: nice staff, c.c.tofu, location

Cons: serves meat, limited vegan options
