We haven't had the authentic Burmese food for long long time, so my sisters and I drove from Chicago to Fort Wayne, IN for 4-1/2 hours to try out this restaurant. My first bite of Mon Hin Ga took me back to my childhood back in Yangon at sidewalk Mon Hin Ga shop. It was so awesome! My sister ordered two bowls of Mon Hin Ga. Too bad, I could eat only one bowl. Also we ordered Ginger Salad, Shan Noodle salad and la pa ye (British Tea with condense milk). We ordered some more Mon Hin Ga for my wife. My wife loves it a lot. She asked me whether they will serve Ohn No Kyawswe (Coconut Noodle Soup) near future. We are going back to Akaungzarr for sure right after Thanksgiving holiday with my family and my sister's family. Yummy!!

Best Burmese EVER, in FORT WAYNE? Never thought I'd ever say that. But yes, this gem is hidden down on the south side of Fort Wayne, towards the former location of Southtown Mall. The restaurant is a stand alone building with plenty of booths and tables to accommodate parties of all sizes. There is also some kind of a music setup, karaoke along with instruments. I tried this place after finding it on Google and through urban spoon. I had the samusas, green tea leaf salad, and the mohingar. I was very impressed, it's better than what I've had in LA and in DC, Yoma Myanmar in MPK and Burma Restaurant in DC. The samusas were fine, served with a spicy ketchup sauce. I forgot to take a picture. The Mohingar had the full lentil fritters and banana tree stems. Awesome textures and flavors. The noodles, shockingly, were a little bit of a let down. They looked like someone had just dropped a brick of instant noodles into the soup and never got around to stirring it up. Despite that, I still thought it was awesome and I still think this is the best mohingar I have had. (No, I have not had Burma Superstar in the Bay, or Ma Hnin in Fort Wayne). The presentation was great, served in a fancy square bowl, haha! The green tea leaf salad was excellent, and also served with little raw green chili peppers and also raw garlic. I was told to take a small bite of each and eat them together. I only tried the chili pepper but the combination was awesome and much tastier than just eating the green tea leaf salad "plain." The prices are also extremely affordable. I believe we had 6 people eat for around $65 and that included 3 orders of samusas and 1 order of the green tea leaf salad. I will definitely eat here whenever I visit!

Great spice level. Solid pricing. Go for the food not the atmosphere. First time I've had Burmese food, will go again! We went later in the evening and we're the only patrons, and the staff was super friendly.

Sad to say the restaurant has changed hands. Perhaps they will get their act together eventually but they have lost our business. Order was incorrect and the pad Thai was nondescript. They also need a wait staff.
