First time stopping here and it was very good food. It was new with the Burmese twist of the traditional Thai food. It was a small restaurant I always passed by, and it surprised me. Its worth a try if you love traditional Thai food. Service was good and the food was prepared well.

Years ago, we discovered Burmese fermented tea salad in San Francisco and have been in love with it. So we were both excited to see it on the menu at Htaw Metta. This place is by far my favorite Asian restaurant in the Indianapolis area. It has fermented tea leaf salad and BOAT NOODLES!! I'm so happy to see a place that serves Burmese/Karen food (a staple in my old hometown of St. Paul, MN). The food was great. The in-house chili pepper sauce is wondrous. And the service was fantastic. The young man who served us was so pleasant, attentive, and we enjoyed speaking with him. Definitely a home-cooked-authentic-meal kinda place.

I ordered the shrimp dumplings and Burmese Chicken Coconut Noddle Soup for lunch and both were sooo tasty. The dumplings were obviously handmade in the best sort of way and deliciously peppery. The noodles in the noodle soup were the stars though...I look forward to craving those specifically in the future.

The Thai restaurant had a friendly Thai staff member that greeted and served our food. The food was delicious and plentiful. I took home some extra rice for the left over curry! The food looked so good I took some bites out before the picture! The restaurant was nicely and colorfully decorated with umbrellas hanging from the ceiling. Has a nice homey warm feeling.

Our new restaurant favorite find! A couple of my friends go out to lunch once a week to restaurants in Indy we have not been to. This is the first one we went to two weeks in a row. Crab rangoons, samosas, dumplings were incredible. We have had everything from the beef curry, Thai noodles to the poke bowls, everything has been delicious. They clearly have focused on the food and not a pretentious atmosphere for the value is amazing. Shockingly, we have never had to wait to get a table.

What a meal! Everything had a lot of flavor. Each sauce that came with our apps were amazing. I could tell the crab rangoon was made fresh compared to the frozen stuff you usually get. The samosas and dumplings were also delicious. Had a chicken curry soup (can’t remember name) and it was so good too, noodles had a great texture. The staff was very friendly. Minimal atmosphere but everything was very clean. No adult beverages if you expect that with your food, we didn’t even really notice because we were so focused on the flavors. Looking forward to coming back soon.

Amazing food everything they have is worth trying, and everyone there are very friendly and helpful if you don’t really know what you want to get or having a hard time choosing. Definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Indy.

Delicious food and fast service! The prices also can't be beat. I had the best red curry I've eaten in Indianapolis. It is quiet inside and parking is easy.

Northsiders, we are in luck! Many of the city's Burmese restaurants are on the south side but we can get a taste of Myanmar, too! Htaw Metta offers delicious Burmese and Thai food. There is plenty of parking and ample seating in the restaurant. We sampled the samosas (different than their Indian counterparts but similar and still delicious!). With some of us trying sushi, someone trying Thai noodles, and someone ordering Burmese noodles we got a small taste of the giant menu. Since I'd never been able to try Burmese food before I made sure to get the Khau Swe Kyaw. It's thinner noodles than lo mein and has a smoky sweet flavor. There were tons of veggies inside but the cabbage stood out. One plate was more than two servings for me! My only caution is that a medium leaned toward very spicy for me (I eat medium wings with no issues but this was hotter). I drank plenty of water and powered through because the flavor was so amazing. I can't wait to come back on a rainy day and try the Nan Gyi Thoke!

Our waiter was funny and kind. Glad I came back here with friends! Definitely want to try some other items on the menu.
