Sin Yaw Restaurant

Delicious local food that left us craving for more. We returned again for another meal the next day. Staff was attentive and we were confident of the cleanliness of the restaurant. We read that it was the best restaurant at inle lake and we were not disappointed. Highly recommend the sharing platter!

Very good local food with a lot variations - we took a cucumber salad as a starter, nice and spicy! For main we went with a stir fried fish from the lake, very good taste of spices and the fish itself was very nice! (No mud taste etc.) for desert as we don’t like sweet thing’s we went with a avocado salad, superb taste with fresh local avo and onions! Would definitely recommend.

Awesome. Food is fantastic, fresh, delicious. One of the best we had in Myanmar. Tomato salad with peanuts is amazing. They have also very tasty strawberry shake and ginger water. Service is very good and helpful. 10000% Recommended!

Sin Yaw is a must try.. their fried Shan noodles are excellent and fairly priced. Another must try is the steamed whole fish and don't be shy of eating the prawn crackers with the chilli sauce - they too are delicious. Lastly this is one of the few restaurants where service is friendly (common for Myanmar) but what's set it up apart is the staff always being around to help with orders or questions.

The best meal we’ve had in Myanmar. One of the best we’ve eaten in Asia (been travelling in Asia for over 6 months).

The Shan style crispy spicy fish salad with lemon and tomato and Shan herbs sauce was delicious. Also - really good juices!

By no small margin, the best food in Myanmar. If you’re in town, there is really no need to disappoint yourself with other restaurants. Everything from service to portion size to taste was on point, and it’s spectacular what they can do with the limited ingredients available in Myanmar.

I’ve eaten at a lot of restaurants, and this place, on both quality of food and service, beats many of the 1 Michelin Star places I’ve been to. I’ve eaten here at least once per day, every day I’ve been here. You would be doing yourself a disservice by not coming here.

I visited 2years ago and ordered a platter. I enjoyed various types of Myanmar dishes. Foods and the wine were so good.
The staff are friendly and kind♡
🍷I highly recommend here.

02/12/18. Came here for dinner. I was surprised by how polite and customer-oriented they were. Food was also really good. We ordered fried baby marrow leaves (pumpkin leaves), Shan style minced chicken, 2 rices and a beer (10500kyats); more than enough for 2 people because their portion is bigger than other places. Snack is free too. Loved their service the most!

Food is very delicious and the lime ginger tea as well. Staff is very friendly and 100% attentive. Great hospitality, definitely want to visit again.

Don't even look at the menu. Just order the 7 course meal. It's one of the best meals I've ever eaten anywhere. I had the fish meal, which included two fish dishes, four vegetables dishes, chickpea tofu, tomato/peanut salad, and rice. Each dish was different from each other and had incredible flavor. Definitely enough for 2 or 3 people to share. Not to mention the friendly and attentive service. Believe the hype. It's so good.

Owner is very nice. Snack is free before have lunch, can take away. Waitress give weat tissue for customers. So nice. I will come back.

Love love love this restaurant. Maybe the best Burmese place we've tried in our 2 weeks in Myanmar.
- Awesome staff: very polite and welcoming. Always smiling. Gives you wet wipes when you arrive, and after you've finished eating.
- Great & unique food: menu explains well the dishes and highlights in bold the recommendations.

We went there twice.
First time, had the deep fried inle lake style fish with tomato and spring onion. The fish is obviously fresh, skin a bit crispy.
We did not order right, as we had a tofu with tomato sauce and spring onion so it was repetitive, but good also. My bf who does not like tofu in general really liked it, as it doesn't have the tofu taste...
Cucumber salad: fresh but nothing spectacular.

Second time: we knew we didnt order right so we wanted to go back our last day and give it another shot.
Pork tempura was the unique. Crispy, not chewy, not oily. perfectly well seasoned. Big highlight of the day.
Pan fried fish fillet: no bone, crisp on the outside and so soft on the inside. The peanut butter sauce was so tasty and perfect as a dipping sauce.
Shan sticky noodles: ok, but no meat, it's good as a staple.

The prices are very affordable. We went there on full moon day and it was opened, unlike many local businesses. On that day, there were many locals having lunch - no wonder why!

Will def come back if i get the chance to be back in the area.

Loved that place! We ordered set for two with chicken and fish and several salads for 15000 ks and . All was very good. Free snacks are those small things adding positive impression

Delicious local food at reasonable prices. Try the Shan specialities. The staff is very friendly and professional, our dishes were ready in a matter of minutes.

Best restaurant we went to on our whole trip around SE Asia. Very friendly and attentive staff, amazing food and good cocktails. We got the Shan vegetarian platter which was delicious and more than enough for 2 of ya especially because they kept offering more rice and to fill up sections we had finished!

I have to say I agree with others who day this is fantastic food. We had two shared players between six people, and enjoyed them both immensely. Hot teas are great also - lime, ginger & mint is my favourite!!
Place was very busy. Planning to return later in the week.

Really loved the avocado salad (off menu item) and also enjoyed the fresh fish with ginger. Super tasty! Didn’t really care for the tea leaf salad and they actually offered to exchange it which is rare in South East Asia. Friendly service, definitely recommend stopping by. Best place I ate at in Inle.

Impeccable place, probably the best food I had in Myanmar so far. I got a vegetarian Shan food tasting plate with some fish salad and every part of it was fantastic. The only possible downside that there was so much food I could not manage finish it all!

Service is great, many nice little things to help you feel better.

This place has the best service I’ve ever had in any restaurant in the world. That’s right, THE WORLD. It’s almost hard to believe how attentive the staff is, it feels like they can read your mind. And the food is incredible too! Some of the best food I’ve had in Myanmar!

Awesome dinner! The grilled fish is really tasteful and we also tried a good fish soup. You can ask any dish in several degrees of spice and they have a nice choice of beers. We tried a local tasteful one, much better than the brand Myanmar Beer. The service is very helpful and everything is clean. I hope I can comeback tomorrow!
