Tried this place after reading good reviews, I would rather go to Bin. It's a small place and the food is just avarage; mango salad was great but pad thai was just average.
FOOOD:
After cherry blossom/red papaya closed down on Gordon, me and my girlfriend had to find a new place for Viet and Thai food. We've always been a fan of Red Papaya and thought that was the best place for authentic viet and thai food, however we were proven WRONG. VERY WRONG.
Tom yum by far has the BEST food that we've ever had. My girlfriend ordered the pad thai and I had the rice combo with grilled chicken and fried egg. I was surprised that the salad that came with it was steamed vegetables, but it was a pleasant surprise. I never ate the salad in rice combos cause it was plain and looked more like garnishing then actual food, but the sauce on the veggies were delicious!!
The springrolls were crunchy and delcious, the veggie sauce that came with it were also amazing! One thing I like about these springrolls compared to anywhere else is they werent GREASY! Me and my girlfriend went to golden basil once, and the springrolls were sooo greasy it actually made a pool of oil and grease on the plate. I thought it was the fish sauce spilt on the plate. Thats how gross it was.
Service: There were two girls waitressing when we went to Tom Yum, one girl helped us to our table, took our order and brought us the food. She was super sweet and made sure to check up on us often. The other waitress was busy cutting up the vegetables in the front, and looked hard at work.
Atmosphere: The restaurant was smaller then most viet-thai restaurants that ive been to, and thats the only reason i gave 4 stars. It was also quite busy when I came in, and at first I thought ... I hope theres a table for us. But i guess being full isnt a BAD thing?
Overall: i recommend anyone that havent tried tom yum to go and try it, i guarantee you'll love it as much as me and my girlfriend did! We'll definitely be loyal customers from now on.
I went to Tom Yum with a friend and ordered rice combination platter, chicken crispy noodles and Lychee Bubbletea. I thought that this place would be any other Viet and Thai restaurant but this place had something different. The presentation of both dishes looked amazing. That wasn't the best thing yet. The food absolutely tasted delicious. Although it had big portions, the price was worth it. I enjoyed the bubbletea and was happy that they had jelly in replacement of the tapioca bubbles. The service was very good. I also liked the idea of the vegetable bar. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys Viet and Thai Food.
My friends have been raving about coming here for the longest time saying its one of the best restaurant for Vietnamese and Thai food. I tried the food and wow am I impressed with my Pho. The broth was fresh and not too fatty which is hard to come by. I am going to come here from now on for my Pho. The service was great and the workers were very friendly. I like the arrangement of the place very much and the pricing is of the dish were very reasonable.
