Shwe Burmese Restaurant

I would give 10/5 stars if I could. The food was excellent, just so delicious and unique and well-prepared. And owners were so sweet and kind. We came 30 min before closing, thanks to a snow storm, but the chef/owners were so patient and kind, prepared all the food just for us (the storm was bad so no other customer was around at that hour), gave me free hot soup even! It's one of those restaurants that truly takes pride in preparing and sharing food with love. Highly recommend this place.

Shwe Burmese Restaurant If your ever in Rensselaer, 100% go check this place out!! It's very cozy but clean inside! the employees are so nice it is a family run business, it isn't expensive either. you can get to go if your in a rush. they take their time & everything is made with quality/ALL FRESH ingredients! they even gave me a complimentary dessert along with a soup and salad with my order. all for $10!!! definitely won't find another place like this! sweestest customer service I've ever received.

This is the best restaurant experience I have ever had. Cozy, unpretentious place with unbelievably great food. I travel a lot for my job so I eat out a lot. I had the vegan curry with brown rice. I never have had a better curry dish. The soup, slaw, and desert were all part of the meal. The desert was like a French bakery but better. Prices are too low. The family that runs this are wonderful people. I read some reviews that said the service is a bit slow . I disagree. This is not previously frozen chain restaurant food. Everything is cooked to order and prepared for you. Makes a difference. If you are in hurry and don't want to enjoy the relaxed atmosphere, then order to go. They also had a surprise birthday desert for a guest with the entire family led by the 4 year old grand da

Should pay them a visit & you won’t be disappointed about their Burmese cuisines 😍😍😍 Update: Came back again for dinner orders: ‘Mango salad’; ‘Fried shirmp’; ‘Coconut Noodle soup’; ‘Pork Belly stew’. All was delicious! Spent a little chat with the chef. And get to know more how they run this restaurant. Everyone, if you like enjoying the home-cooking foods. (And the prices! We are still surprise to compare with others now in Albany). Don’t hesitate to come & try them! 😋😊🤓

A tiny restaurant that should absolutely not be overlooked and is worth a detour. You could get a delivery, but the attentiveness of the staff and the cozy atmosphere is well worth it. The crispy tofu was cooked perfectly, the salad was fragrant, crunchy and well-balanced, the main dishes were a majestic blend of taste and the iced tea was addictive. The cashew nut stir-fry had tender pieces of chicken and crunchy vegetables in a sweet and savory sauce, definitely the highlight of our meal. The Palata bread was also excellent, freshly made, buttery and flaky on the inside, resembling a croissant in texture and taste, even though we ordered it thinking it was a flatbread of sorts. The only thing we didn't quite like was the shrimp that came with the Burmese flat wide noodles, choosing a dif
