Thai and Lao Restaurants Open for Takeout and Delivery in the Bay Area | Eater SF

"The sister restaurant to Berkeley’s popular Imm Thai Street Food specializes in home-style cooking, going beyond the usual pick-your-protein curries (which they also have). This is the spot to seek out harder-to-find dishes like kua gai (fat, stir-fried rice noodles bound together by egg), tom yum omelette rice, and avocado green curry — all available on the to go menu. Cocktails are also on offer as a takeout item. Delivery is through Grubhub or DoorDash." - Luke Tsai

Not bad, really appreciated how it was not as oily like many other Thai restaurants. Would say the curries are spicier than the usual Thai places here, which I liked. However, the portions (especially the soups) are on the smaller side for the price. Also I saw people recommended Lord’s noodles but it was honestly kind of average, the pork belly was dry and flavorless. But the avocado green curry is really good, spicy and creamy.

Cute, bright spot for a quick and flavorful dinner. This place came highly recommended and it didn’t disappoint. The food was great and came out quickly — it was perfect, as we were getting close to our showtime at the Berkeley Playhouse. I had the praram plate, a delicious peanut-curry-chicken dish (and the closest thing I’ve found to Massaman curry here in the Bay!). Would highly recommend. The cocktails were bright and fruity, really tasty!

It's a newly added Thai restaurant to collection of college ave. Only indoor seating. Service and waiters are relatively responsive. There is full bar with kinda spicy drinks! I understand food flavor is tasty and subjective. Not so oily appreciated, however despite hot foods marked based on level of hotness, we group of four Thai-food lovers couldn't finish our meals due to very spicy 🌶️ hot taste. Sometimes so hot that no other taste could be felt! Not sure of the authenticity tbh to compare with other Thai foods or restaurants tried before. Anyways note that if you have some hesitancy on spicy foods. Try sticky rice and mango for sure to wash down all the spices 😉 Street Parking is doable.

Delectable. Pad Thai. Absolutely perfect. It's been a long time since I've had good Thai food. The avocado fresh rolls with peanut sauce was perfect. I could eat it all day long. The soup I added a photo off didn't have a lot of meat and was super salty but the kebobs and their sauce was tender and juicy. The staff was super super nice and attentive. Had a really great time here and would love to come again and sit on that little patio to enjoy. Definitely come here. Don't skip out because parking is tricky. It's worth it.

Food is highly recommended, staff service are excellent, they're friendly and very attentive.....the only problem is the tables. ALL OF THE WOODEN TABLE inside and outside, they are all sticky. Feel it to experiences it to yourselft. Im not sure if its the wood varnish or just the way they cleaned it with certain. chemical.

Tom Yum Omelette Rice is a must try, unique and well seasoned. Pork skewers are tiny though. Service is just so-so but ambience is nice.

Yimm, more like, yumm! Ok this place was fun, I love Thai food but I always appreciate restaurants that have a menu that encompasses more than the “American traditional.” Yeah they have yellow curry and pad Thai and I am sure it’s bomb! I opted for something different and got the Mee Cook. Tasty! Reminded me bun ga nuong with a fish sauce and fresh veggies. The vermicelli noodles were amazing! Tasted homemade, really fresh. The flavor was slightly bland though and missing some spice for me. Also the portion was on the smaller side for the price. No leftovers :) maybe that’s a good thing though? My husband had the Lord’s Noodles which were also good but lacked some flavor in terms of balance. The pork belly with Chinese broccoli was good and brought a nice level of heat. I definitely recommend that! The crispy rolls were great, super fresh ingredients, I also recommend that dish. Lastly, some fun cocktails! The Tom kha was spicy but good, a surprising twist that worked for me and I was glad my entre was mild because it balanced it out. 🍹 This place would be a fun date spot, I think I’ll stick to my more classic Thai places but if ever I want something more special and higher quality, I’d pick Yimm.

ATMOSPHERE: Looked to have a cozy interior, but we opted to sit outside. There are only three tables outside in a small space, but it's somewhat enclosed from the sidewalk so it still feels a bit more intimate. Located at the edge of rockridge, it's a relatively easy walk from the Rockridge BART. FOOD: Tom Yum Cocktail (very good): I took a sip of this and it was pretty good. It had quite a kick, and I like how much spice it had. The person who ordered the drink liked it, though said it was a bit on the sour side. I do not drink alcohol much, so I don't know how this compares to other cocktails so am leaving this unrated. Though I enjoyed it. Fried avocado and oyster mushroom (5 out of 5): If you're a fan of fried foods like pakora, tempura, etc, GET THIS! Actually, who isn't a fan of fried food? The avocado was soft and creamy on the inside but the fried batter was crispy and gave everything a crunch. The sweet and sour dipping sauce was also really really good. Pad Khee Mao (5 out of 5): This is my litmus test for thai restaurants, and they do it very very well here. Tom yum omelette (4 out of 5): Ordered this because I wanted to try something new that I haven't gotten anywhere else. It was indeed really good, with tom yum flavors in an omelette over rice. But my only complaint is that there just wasn't enough tom yum sauce, which was the whole point of the dish. Had to really scrape all the sauce from the dish to get enough to balance out the amount of rice and omelette. But the flavors were great.

We visited Yimm and tried the chicken satay, shrimp pad Thai, beef salad, and the eggplant with tofu served with riceberry rice. While the pad Thai seems to be the most popular dish from Yelp reviews, it wasn't my wife's favorite. Instead, the beef salad and the eggplant tofu with riceberry rice were the clear standouts. Both were fresh, flavorful, and beautifully balanced. The sauces across dishes really hit the mark--bright, layered, and spot on. We also enjoyed the outdoor seating, which added to the relaxed vibe. Just a tip: if you're dining around sunset, bring a hat or sunglasses, since the sun shines directly onto the patio. Overall, Yimm impressed us with bold Thai flavors and thoughtful preparation. We'd gladly return, especially for the beef salad and eggplant tofu with riceberry rice.

Ordered two chicken pad thai today, it was my first visit here. It was tasty however they REALLY stubbed us on the chicken. Super small pieces with only 3 actual pieces of chicken in each. Spent almost $40 bucks for mainly noodles.

This was some of the best Thai food I have ever eaten! I and out of Thailand! I will think about the omelette rice for a long time to come! Great service, too! Can't wait to return!

Kind of bummed about this visit as I had higher expectations coming in. Everything were ordered was on the saltier side, and unnecessarily so. The garlic pork I ordered was a bit hard to chew as well and I wasn't a big fan. Similar verdict for the mango sticky rice dessert, way too sweet with the concentrated coconut milk that it overpowers the mango's taste. Whatever they are cooking in the kitchen, they need to dial it back a notch.

Really great service and 10/10 mango sticky rice. Would come back just for the dessert! The spring roll was vegetarian, but good and fresh. Looks like a small business with everything tasting great!

My friends and I wanted to try out new Thai spots and Yimm impressed us! We picked menu items we wouldn't find in our usual Thai spots.. and the Tom Yum Omelet Rice was incredibleeee (shout out to our server for recommending!). The pandan custard bread wasn't too sweet which we loved. Those 2 dishes were the standouts of our meal for me. The atmosphere is very modern and the staff is really kind!

Friend and I had dinner here on Monday 6/16/2025. I looked up a few Thai places on Yelp in the area and picked Yimm because it had some unique menu items. I had a Thai iced tea and pumpkin curry with tofu. Friend had the green avocado curry with chicken. Pumpkin curry was good but a bit more spicy than I'm used to. Portions were generous so both of us had leftovers. Service was friendly and efficient. However, the restaurant is very noisy. Wouldn't be opposed to coming back but if someone wanted to go but maybe would do takeout/delivery instead

The food is amazing! Even before that, the service was great. We were coming from all over the area and they made sure there was a table for us. Also we had a couple of diners that had very specific food allergies and they accommodated us easily. And every dish (and cocktail) was delicious. The space was very comfortable and cozy on a winter evening. I absolutely recommend this place!

Portions were small for the price. We ordered beef basil and the dish alone is $16 but to add protein is +$3 so it was $19 however there wasn't much beef on the plate and we left still feeling hungry (coming from a person who has a small appetite). They accidentally did serve us chicken when we ordered beef, but they kindly replaced it. The servers are very nice and patient, and the ambiance is cozy inside. I also do appreciate them still serving us even though we came in ~40 mins before closing.

Been here many times but this was the first time I had tried the noodle soup and it was really delicious! Tom yum is my favorite Thai soup and the addition of the noodles with some veggies really made for a great combo. The service is always very quick and the servers are very nice. I love that they also have a cozy outside seating section so we can bring our dog as well. The afternoon gets a bit of sun in the front as well which is nice! Definitely worth checking out!

Green curry is lit. Thick, spicy and yumO!!! The sweet corn salad was very fresh, lettuce and veggies crisp. It was a bit bland, but I spiced it up with chilis. IMO the curry is a bit overpriced for the size of the dish. The rice was kind of mushy. Ample interior dining and a small amount of tables for outdoor dining. Note: Restrooms are up a few stairs, so not ADA accessible. In my first visit the staff was great, second visit I felt like I was ignored and unattended to. Overall quality of food is 5 but bc of prices and service I can only rate 4 stars.

Really solid Thai spot, but what keeps me going back is the duck noodle soup! The right amount of saltiness and sweetness, the duck is rendered to perfection with egg noodles. Yum!

A hidden gem for really good Thai food. We loved the pad kee mao, sweet corn salad, and fried pumpkin. The food comes out quick, and the staff are super friendly. We went around weekday lunch and it was quiet enough to have conversations with friends. Would recommend coming by if you're craving Thai!

Spacious with nice decor, lots of plants. The lychee cocktail (the "Bikini") was good, but the food was spicy for our group of lightweights! (Would have appreciated if the server could have warned us or asked for our desired level of spice!) Nevertheless, the food was tasty, the service was good, there was a lot of street parking nearby (and can park at Rockridge BART parking lot after hours), and the bathrooms were large and clean. It was quite noisy, as there was a large group seated near us on Friday night, so take that into consideration if your party has hearing issues. My friend has gone during the day and it was much more tranquil, so consider going at off hours as well. We were happy that they didn't rush us out, allowing our group ample time to catch up with each other, so I would go again!

Came here with a friend for lunch on a Wednesday -- super spacious, and there were around 4 other parties. There were two single-stall bathrooms, and the one I used was clean. I ordered a Basil Rice Plate with Pork, which I thought was pretty good. However, it definitely was on the saltier side and not that spicy. My friend and I later ordered Thai Teas after seeing other customers order it -- it was super rich and creamy, though definitely quite sweet. The waiter was friendly and attentive, and split our check without us having to ask. The restaurant is located on a strip of College Ave with lots of cute stores to check out after or before your meal too. Would definitely return!

Yimm has a very modern ambiance. We tried a variety of dishes: Tom Yum Omelet Rice: Shrimps where delicious as was the sauce, it was a lot of omelet but that is on us as that should have been evident from the name. Pad Kee Mao, was spot on, with a light kick, would definitely order again. Basil Rice Plate - Very fresh and also had a kick, could have used a bit more rice, but flavor was kicking. Mee Cook, had a nice flavor but nothing I would write home about. All solid dishes paired with a fun modern look makes this a great choice for a night out or date.

The food is really good, service is good, and the place is really nice. I recommend the fried pumpkin appetizer and pork belly soup. I think it is called Pa Lo. Thai tea is good too. Also the fried egg topping is cooked perfectly in my opinion, runny like a benedict. I know some people like their eggs fully cooked or hard boiled but I prefer over easy, poached, soft boiled, or otherwise undercooked/runny

Great food and friendly service! I came here a few months ago and ordered the tempura pumpkin appetizer and the Tom Yum Noodle Soup. Both were great, but especially the soup! What a huge and satisfying dish with lots of flavor. Ambiance is nice and chill with low lighting and tables are far enough apart from others. Definitely will visit again soon and if anything changes, I'll update my review.

Good Thai restaurant located in the rock ridge neighborhood of Oakland. A few friends had recommended this place to me, I wasn't sure exactly what to expect, but overall I felt this was a decent thai place with decent food and great pricing. The ambiance was nice and the service friendly. In addition the the green papaya salad, we ordered a few items off the "home cooking" section; the avocado green curry and the pa-lo. I felt that all the dishes were standard; certainly nothing was bad but I wasn't overwhelmed by anything either. I think I left ultimately happy simply for the fact that all dishes were good and extremely reasonably priced -- having left this place and feeling like going out to dinner didn't break the bank (which is becoming a standard experience in the bay area). I would definitely recommend this place for some good thai food at reasonable prices.

This place was so yummy....... or should I say YIMMY!!!!!!!! The ambience was great, super warm inside, great big windows and lots of people. Service was excellent, food was even better. Duck soup. Green curry. Pad Thai. Crispy rolls x2. Fried rice. Tom yum. Papaya salad. We are stuffed!

Such a cute restaurant with great food! Yimm is the sister restaurant to popular restaurant Imm Thai in downtown Berkeley. Dare I say Yimm is better. The inside is a very home-y, large open space. They had a variety of dishes with a variety of spice levels as well. I got the Pad Kee Mao and it definitely had a kick to it, but the spice level was definitely tolerable. All their food was cooked to perfection with just the right amount of seasoning and spice. Yimm is the perfect place to go whether for a celebratory occasion or just for a fun dinner out with friends!

I came on Saturday for lunch and it was very easy to get a table for 3. We ordered the Kua gai, tom yum omelet rice and tom kha. This was the perfect amount of food for 3 girls. The Tom yum omelet rice was my favorite! I've never had anything like this. The sauce was surprisingly spicy and really tied the whole dish together. Kua gai was also good but I would try their other noodle dishes next time. The tom kha was good but the portion is really small.

Thai restaurants haven't always been my favorite as often there's a one-note feel to all of the dishes, sometimes too sweet with coconut milk. Don't get me wrong - I love Thai food. I just haven't been blessed with good restaurant experiences. That ended tonight. We ordered the fried pumpkin small plate, which is komboca squash slices perfectly fried and nicely seasoned. We ordered the kang herd soup, and I've never tasted anything like the broth! We ordered the Kua Gai wok noodles with beautifully cooked seafood and covered with a blanket of flat scrambled eggs, and the flavors were so intricate. And we ordered the praram (I felt embarrassed trying to pronounce it) - chicken, spinach, and broccoli in a curry peanut sauce. Everything was new to me. I notice that they don't put condiments on the tables, though I'm sure they would provide them if asked. But I think the flavors are so intricate and complex - don't mess with it unless they provide a sauce! I want to go back and try more dishes.

This is absolutely my favorite Thai place in Oakland. Everything I've tried has been delicious and I always get the chicken wings. There's really nothing I can say to describe the deliciousness of this fried crispy wings. Overall...Great food, great service and great happy hour drinks nothing else left to say but I guess give them a try.

Yimm was cute local Thai spot with fun menu choices. I always look for duck noodle soup when I go for Thai, and this is one of the few spots that offered it. I thought the pad see ew portion was small and the sauce was on the sweeter side. The duck tasted a bit dry, but still full of flavor in the broth as well. Overall, parking is pretty easy along the street and it is convenient and cute to dine here!

Came here with a group on Sunday for lunch. Very happy with the food and service! A nice menu with familiar options and some fun alternatives. We enjoyed the - Beef noodle soup (a little salty but super yummy) - praram with veggies (peanut sauce was light in a good way) - avocado green curry (my mom's favorite) - garlic pork stir fry (VERY garlicy, did not disappoint) I look forward to coming back!

Yimm is my favorite Thai place in the Berkeley area! The ambiance inside the restaurant is beautiful, well decorated, and never too busy. I usually come for lunch or early dinner and I've never had to wait for a table. This time I came with a group of 6, the service was very accommodating and quick. I got the avocado green curry and it was delicious and the perfect amount of spice for me! All of my friends also enjoyed their food. Thank you Yimm for such a great experience as always!

after all these yrs of the Berkeley Thai scene, I would ultimately choose yimm to take any new friend in town to. Food, vibes, service, and location are all solid. Highly recommend the fried pumpkin appetizer -- this thing is so freaking crispy and yummy with a one of a kind dipping sauce on the side. Pad se ew is the best one I've had ever, and the huge plate of fried rice does not compromise quality over quantity. The pork belly plate is good but kinda salty so be warned. They have a bunch of spices and sauces to pair with ur food, and the PLATES are so cute. This is a sister restaurant of imm in downtown Berkeley, but I'd recommend yimm over imm any day with how quaint and nice this restaurant is

Everything about the food and service is RIGHT! My sister and I were out for a late night dinner and thought we would order Tom Kha soup with chicken and extra mushrooms with a cup of white rice to go on our drive home. We arrived early enough that the staff was able to accommodate our seating for dinner. Eagerly, we added additional menu items including a pumpkin curry chicken--THE BEST with simple cooked white rice, mild taste at my request. We ordered hot chai--so very good on the night of our visit, Thursday after 8:30 pm. Sadly, I didn't snap too many pictures. The staff (3) were above and beyond--very customer friendly and professional. The restaurant has designed, comfortable seating without crowding. There were even seats available outside--it was too cold outside for this visit and we will return!

Came here on Sunday for dinner with family. Since we were a party of 6, it was nice being able to call ahead to make a reservation. Metered street parking only so plan accordingly. Comfortable atmosphere inside with great natural lighting. We arrived 5 minutes before the end of their Happy Hour, so we had to ask them for their Happy Hour menu (which is for 11 am - 6 pm everyday). We quickly ordered the Bo Pils beer and a Summer Glow cocktail. The beer was standard, but the Summer Glow was a bit watered down. We ordered a bunch of dishes to share (The portions were a bit smaller than expected for the price): -sweet corn salad -mee cook -Tom Yum omelet rice -pad see ew -pumpkin curry -sweet fish. All were delicious and incredibly flavorful (and a bit spicy). My top favorites were the sweet fish (buttery smooth fish) and pad see ew (good "wok hay" flavor). Service was fairly attentive given how busy it was inside. Overall, we had a good dining experience, enjoyed the food, and would probably come back again if we were in the area.

Decent Thai spot! Ambiance is nice and clean. This place caught my eye because I wanted to try the Tom Yum Omelet Rice. I like the tom yum flavor, and it came with a decent amount of shrimp! It was also my first time trying the Yen Ta Foh, which was very satisfying. The broth was super flavorful and hit the spot. I didn't expect the noodles to be so wide, but it was fine. We got the fried oyster mushroom and avocado for appetizer, and the sweet and sour sauce was addicting. I thought this dish felt a little heavy on the fried oil taste. Nonetheless, very crispy and loved the mushrooms.

Nice atmosphere, perfect for a date. Service was friendly and attentive. Has a nice bar with good variety of drinks.... But we came here for the food. We got the kua gai and lords noodles. If you are feeling something new and adventurous, the lords noodles is a must try. It's steamed vermicelli rice noodles topped with a shiitake mushroom, fried tofu, pork belly broth-y sauce. The favors are savory sweet, somewhat like a sweet soy sauce hoisin sauce like taste. It's very good. Kua gai was something we haven't tried before. It's stir fried flat rice noodles with chicken, shrimp and squid then topped with a thin fried egg. It was okay. I ate it with the lords noodles sauce. I personally thought I would it like it more if it had more spice and a stronger flavor. I would choose the pad kee mao next time.

Got four dishes for take out, but it's a cute little restaurant that I think would've been nice for dining in as well. Got the fresh rolls, pad thai (chicken), pad see ew (beef), and spicy fried rice (chicken). Fresh rolls were TINY and you only get three - and they add avocado which was a little weird...not bad...just not what I'd expect when I order spring rolls. Peanut sauce was yummy though. Still..wouldn't get it again. Also wouldn't get the pad Thai which just missed the mark. Can't really describe it...just didn't taste like pad Thai to us. The reason for the 4 stars is the pad see ew and spicy fried rice. Both were excellent - well seasoned and generous portions that we'd be happy to eat again.

Unique Thai dishes like their tom yum omelette and fried pumpkin. I liked their tom yum soup and my kids enjoyed their beef noodle soup. The green curry was a little too sweet for me. Service was friendly and good. Ambiance was relaxed and lively. Will come back. Kid friendly as well.

Fast and accommodating service and great decorations (got seated at table with mini Christmas tree). Flavor of the dishes was great (I tried the eggplant dish which I haven't had at a Thai restaurant before) and drinks were good too. The presentation and overall experience enhanced the quality of the food. Portion sizes were good as well.

Great little restaurant with friendly service. Fresh rolls - 5/5 Papaya salad - 2/5 (too sweet with a lot of large sugar crystals in it, would not order again) Green curry with chicken- 4/5 (a tad on the sweet side for me, but still very good) Pad See Eww with beef - 4/5 Mee Cook - 2/5 (not bad, but would not order again) Mango sticky rice - 5/5 (not to be missed)

I wanted to eat vegetarian to reduce my carbon footprint, so I decided to come here for lunch and order the Pad See Ew with Veggies. They asked me if egg was okay, and I said "Yes." When they brought the dish to me, I tasted it and thought it was so good! The sauce, including garlic and white pepper, make this dish tasty without being too heavy while the noodles had the optimal chewy texture. The vegetables were integrated well - not just thrown in as an add-on. On top of that, since I don't tend to eat a lot, I was able to eat half of the dish as leftovers. I've come here a few times before, and I like this place a lot. Other items I've previously enjoyed are the Duck Noodles Soup and the Bikini cocktail. ECO NOTES (Dine-In) Dishware: They use reusable ceramic plates and bowls. Napkins: Single-use disposable paper napkins Utensils: Metal fork. When they brought out my dish, they brought disposable wooden chopsticks, but I told them I didn't need them, so they took it back. Water cups: Short glass cups

I decided to come here for lunch with a friend on Sunday since I've had this place bookmarked for a while. I didn't make a reservation ahead of time but decided to get there right when they opened at 11am. There was only a party of 3 ahead of us, so we were immediately seated. We decided to order the following to share: - Papaya Salad (2/5): A bit bland to my liking and very few shrimps given. I was a bit disappointed since this is one of my favorite dishes at a Thai restaurant. - Pad Kee Mao (4/5): Very flavorful and the chicken complimented the entire dish well. I loved how chewy the flat noodles were. - Pumpkin Curry (5/5): By far the best dish amongst the three. It was a last minute decision to order this since there were multiple curry options. The curry was rich but it wasn't overpowering. I could definitely taste the pumpkin and glad that I ordered tofu with it. The staff was very attentive and friendly. I really liked the seating that they had next to the wall. The restaurant did get busier after awhile, but people didn't have to wait long to get seated. Overall great restaurant and will definitely come back to try other dishes.

The food was good. The service good. I felt placed uncomfortably close to the next table.

I really like this restaurant. We've been to many Thai places and haven't had a bad experience yet. They offer a dish that stands out from the rest--the red curry with pumpkin. While my kids aren't fond of pumpkin, I personally enjoyed it a lot, so I got to savor the entire dish myself. It's a great find for those who appreciate a unique twist on traditional Thai flavors.

Had take out this time and provided specific instructions on how to separate the sauce so that toddler can have the dishes without any spicy sauce (spicy tangy house sauce for fish, or the peanut sauce for praram). They followed it exactly as requested. Thank you! Everything was delicious. Since the fish didn't have sauce on it, it allowed us to also heat it up so it's crispy before we ate it with sauce and toddler can have it without sauce.

What a jem.First, our welcome was like being greeted to their house. Service was fast and food and drinks very nice. I especially enjoyed their margaritas because they were crisp but not hardly sugar. It's always a treat to find a spot you call your spot!!! Try them and you'll understand. I highly recommend Yimm!!!

This place is wonderful. All the dishes were super good. They will cater to your heat preferences. Service was good. You have to try the fried pumpkin, omg. This is one of the few places open on a Monday which is a big plus. Highly recommended spot for dinner.

I came here for lunch and asked to sit at the bar since it was just me- it wasn't too busy. I came specifically for the Tom Yum Omelette Rice I had previously seen online, similar to omourice but with a Thai twist. The employee who took my order was nice, suggested medium spicy, but I said mild because I can't handle spice. I was beyond impressed with the dish... I knew I would like it because I love Tom yum and rice dishes, but man it was perfect and worth the $19. It had mushrooms and a generous amount of shrimp. I will definitely come back here to try other items on the menu!
