This review is long overdue. Yum Yai serves the best Thai food in Birmingham. As a Thai native, I can vouch that they're incredibly creative with their dishes while preserving authentic flavors. I love their Esan sausages as an appetizer and usually order papaya salad with fried chicken. My husband loves their Khao Soi. Their coconut cake is delicious, too. If you want to experience authentic Thai food, please try Yum Yai!

The Pad Thai wings and the mocktails were really excellent here. The service was warm and kind. I had crispy pork with rice and my wife had duck noodles. Both well balanced and scrumptious.

Insanely tasty authentic food, chill vibes and really nice space and atmosphere. Great for a romantic date night spot too. I live in Chattanooga and wish this place was there. I will dine here every time I return to Bham for work. Servers super friendly and want to tell you about their innovative menu and recipes and dishes to try. I had the PAD BAI HO RA PHA and, y’all.

Yum Yai offers one of the best Thai dining experiences I’ve had to date. Their take on elevated Thai street food is executed perfectly with many creative takes on classic dishes. Any dish with their duck is amazing, and their drink menu offers a variety of compatible pairings 😊.

But I’m going to be back bc I will be dreaming about this place! The service was amazing also! This is def a foodie palace!

The food was amazing - definitely one of the best Thai places I have been to so far. Everything was very flavorful and delicious. It came out rather quick and service was great as well. Our server Minnie was really welcoming and friendly which made our visit run smoothly. Would recommend this place for sure.

Absolutely DELICIOUS food. The vibes, the food, the service is totally worth coming here. The food is tasty and authentic and very nicely plated. You can tell a lot of thought has been put into the menu and the ambiance. 10/10 would come back.

My husband and I were craving Thai food, it had been some time since we'd had any. We decided to try someplace new and after some online searching, I found Yum Yai. The atmosphere was inviting from the moment we walked in. As the hostess was seating us, we were greeted very cheerfully by our server, who introduced herself as Pamela. From the moment we sat down, she treated us like we were the only customers there. She actually had other customers she took care of, but she was there for everything we needed. She was great about suggestions for appetizers and entrees. She was super sweet and just seemed so happy to be taking care of us. We found her absolutely delightful! We both had the coconut soup, which was delicious comfort food for us. I had the egg rolls and my husband had the Chicken Thai Rice. It was all so yummy! But, what truly made our visit so special, was Pamela! If you go there to eat, you need to ask for her! She will make you feel like royalty!
10 stars! 🌟
