"**FOOD:** - **Tom Yum Cocktail (very good):** I took a sip and found it quite enjoyable. It had a nice kick and plenty of spice. The person who ordered it liked it too, though they mentioned it was a bit on the sour side. Since I don't drink alcohol often, I can't compare it to other cocktails, so I'll leave it unrated. However, I did enjoy it. - **Fried Avocado and Oyster Mushroom (5 out of 5):** If you're a fan of fried foods like pakora or tempura, you have to try this! Honestly, who doesn’t love fried food? The avocado was soft and creamy inside, while the crispy batter gave it a delightful crunch. The sweet and sour dipping sauce was also fantastic. - **Pad Khee Mao (5 out of 5):** This dish is my ultimate test for Thai restaurants, and they absolutely nailed it here. - **Tom Yum Omelette (4 out of 5):** I ordered this to try something new that I hadn’t had before. It was really good, featuring tom yum flavors in an omelette served over rice. My only complaint is that there wasn’t enough tom yum sauce; the dish really needed more to properly balance the rice and omelette. I ended up scraping the dish for extra sauce, but the flavors themselves were excellent."

Not it sis. The beef larb was horrible, mostly large strips of badly cooked flavorless beef. Tom kha wasn't good, coconut milk used was off. Def a no, especially for the price

Really great menu and excellent flavors with fresh ingredients. Always great to go early so you're sure they'll be a table. Recommend recommendations for dining at peak hours as this place can fill up.

I have to say the pad see ew was the best I've ever had. It was so rich with flavor (it had an additional smoky flavor that I had never experienced with these noodles) and the thick noodles were perfect, not soggy but nicely fried.

Yimm is an easy 5 stars. It's got a great vibe, staff is phenomenal, and the food is off the chain.I'm still dreaming about the garlic pork. You need to try this dish. It's salty, sweet, and the pork melts in your mouth.I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu here! Highly recommend! View menu

While standards like pad thai and tom yum are on the menu, this smartly decorated neighbourhood spot has items not seen anywhere else. The yen tah foh ? a noodle soup with tomato-based broth and perfectly cooked shellfish ? was new in flavor. Eager to stop by again to learn more of what Thai cuisine can encompass.

This is my favorite Thai restaurant when I can’t make it to Thailand. I absolutely love the crispy spring rolls, curries, and string bean dishes; they make for a wonderful, healthy meal. The ambiance inside the restaurant is beautiful, and the outdoor seating is lovely as well. It's a fantastic place to dine alone, with friends, or for a meeting.

We've eaten at Yimm and ordered from there multiple times. But our takeout order tonight was simply awful. Chicken wings 5 measly ones with no meat were burned to a crisp and not worth looking at. Eggplant was soggy and brown. Fried rice was mediocre. The corn salad was great. When you pay $70 for takeout with 1 appetizer, 1 salad, and 2 basic entrees you expect better. Don't know what's going on here, but it seems to have gone downhill from our past experiences. View menu

Delicious! The Pad Thai was absolutely perfect. It’s been a while since I’ve had good Thai food. The avocado fresh rolls with peanut sauce were amazing—I could eat them all day! The soup I posted a photo of didn’t have much meat and was quite salty, but the kebabs and their sauce were tender and juicy. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. I had a fantastic experience and would love to return to sit on that cozy patio. Definitely give this place a try! Don’t let the tricky parking discourage you; it’s worth it!

Weird experience!!! Never had the server I had today that had attitude!!! She was annoyed of every request and she followed me out of the establishment because the tip was not of her satisfaction! She also made one of the worst Paloma’s I ever had!!! Not sure me sending it back annoyed her but nonetheless when She questioned me about the tip she reasoned with me never tipping! Which is completely false! I’ve been their 4 times and never was so disappointed with the service and left big tips reflecting that. Not sure if she was Grouping me in with other black women she encountered. But I was not comfort with the way she referred me to someone else who never tips!! Distasteful!
