Yamo is a small, family-owned Burmese restaurant hidden on 18th Street that draws lines out the door despite minimal signage. Order the house garlic noodles—reviewers are unanimous about them—and expect a no-frills counter service experience with tight seating by the open kitchen. Be prepared for waits on weekends and note that service can be inconsistent, with some staff interactions reported as curt.
