Burmese specialties and sushi rolls on 700 South
Shwe Letyar Sushi pairs Burmese cooking with sushi rolls in Salt Lake City, a small counter on 700 South where fermented tea leaf salad and Burmese samosas share the menu with maki. Glutinous rice pyramids steamed in banana leaves, chicken stir fry with rice noodles, and Burmese style beef bowls round out a lineup you won’t find twice in the city. Order ahead for quick pickup.
About the Shwe Letyar Sushi
Shwe Letyar Sushi sits at 545 West 700 South in Salt Lake City, just south of downtown, mixing two menus that rarely share a kitchen: Burmese home cooking and fresh sushi rolls. It’s a pairing built for grazing across both.
The Burmese side is the draw for the curious: fermented tea leaf salad with fried soy beans, peanuts, and Thai bird chiles; samosas filled with chicken and potato; glutinous rice pyramids sweetened with sesame paste and steamed in banana leaves; and stewed beef over rice. The sushi side keeps it familiar with rolls and small plates.
The room is casual and pickup friendly, with vegetarian options, dessert, and quick bites throughout the menu. A rewards program earns a point per dollar, and parking is free on the street and in the lot.
Order ahead for a 15 to 20 minute pickup, or dine in at one of the tables. Either way it’s one of the more distinctive sushi stops in Salt Lake City.
