Love their delicious food, fresh, authentic and can't go wrong with their excellent prices. Must eat here if you're on the shore looking for some good authentic Thai.

Been here a number of times over the years, on this occasion we ordered the Mixed Entrees, Thai Red Curry w/ Pork and Rice, and the Pad Thai w/ Beef to takeaway. 

Everything was amazing; delicious, fresh flavours and great portion sizes for the price, which is significantly lower compared to some other Thai spots. 

Really friendly and fast service as well.

Very tasty, and reasonably priced! Glad to have found a place that does a nice yellow curry which has a nice balance of potatoes, Kumara, and carrots and not just chock full of onions. This has become a regular takeaway spot for us.

Amazing food and lovely staff. This place is cute for dining in and great for takeaway. Excellent value at $13.90 for a main and rice - perfect meal for two. Entrees are delicious. Highly recommended.

This is our ‘go to’ when we are feeling like Thai takeaways.

The dishes are;
- full of vegetables that are always fresh and never over cooked
- tasty
- typically ready 15 minutes after ordering
- awesome value for money.

Over a year ago we found on a couple of occasions that the dishes were lacking a bit of pep (they were mild as a default) and subsequently we always order ‘medium’ and the food now consistently delivers on pep.

Thai Yum..indeed yum!

This little restaurant serves delicious dishes. As a tom yum fan, I highly recommend this place.

Just FYI, the portions are a little smaller than most Thai places around. But in terms of flavour, cleanliness and speed..Thai Yum is sure a place to go to.

Delicious, fast and very professional service.
They have also let us BYO container previously, where you take your own containers for takeaways.
This time we dined in :)

One of our Thai friends recommends us to this place. We try it and always come to this place since if we crave some thai foods.
We like almost everything that they have on their menu but our favourite is their pad mee goreng.
We rate this place 5 out of 5 for their beautiful foods, reasonble price and generous servings.

Thai YUM Food Hut;excuse me for dining next door for the past few months paying huge prices for meals that,wouldnt satisfie my hunger. Beautiful Thai food. I have come in twice in the last 5 days. Friendly service on both occasions(Same lovely lady) & two well enjoyed curries;Green Thai Curry & Panang curry. Personally I'd love a bigger portion of white rice as the yummy curry portions are a good size..others may disagree. I also feel the 'medium' spice level could be a little more spicier, then again maybe I should ask for Thai medium as I can only imagine some of the complaints you may get that ' ' is too spicy. I will be back to try more dishes off your menu! Glad I have found my regular Thai Restaurant&take-away!

This Thai take away they have only a row of bar seats and 2 two sweaters table.
Most people call and take away from the shop.
We prefer dine in.

They have wonderful Thai food. Tom yum and pineapple fried rice are our favourite.
Tom yum can be very hot if you request them for hot tom yum. We also had requested them to prepare tom yum koay teow (flat rice noodle cooked in tom yum soup), very nice.

A good try if you are in Birkenhead.

Absolutely amazing! My girlfriend and I come here weekly as a day off treat, and have tried both eat in and take out. The food is almost always perfect, yet on saturday nights when the are swamped the standard can drop a little. Still my favourite place to eat, with comforting food and lovely staff.

Delicious and affordable! Love love love their authentic food. Portions are so big, will definitely leave you with a full tummy. I especially like the way they cook their vegetables it's just so yummy! Just wish they had a bigger dining place, although I do understand that it's a takeaway place. I just feel like the price are gradually increasing (though majority of food places do) and they used to include (free) rice with the meals.

Great place for a quick dinner. The staff is friendly and the food is great. We've only ever had takeaway from here and it has always been good. It's a lot cheaper than the other thai places nearby. Our favourites are the chicken green curry and tom yum soup.

Tried this place once. I am not a big Thai eater and I decided to make a trip here given the excellent reviews. The service was lovely and food was delicious. Not to mention the prices were fantastic.Very honest and filling meal which was made very quickly (cant have been longer than 7 minutes for 3 dishes)!

They claim that they don't use MSG... I don't know if I believe that because the food is way too yummy.
We go there all the time and have NEVER been disappointed, it's weird because the food is really amazing and the price is really low... I always leave feeling like I should have been charged more.

Thai Yum is outstanding! My wife and I will often get home from work and decide we want Thai food - and Thai Yum absolutely delivers.

So far the only 'complaint' is that we can't eat more! HIGHLY reccomend the Chicken Satay and the Pra Ram, but order anything and you will not be disappointed!

loveeeee the food and service! portions were reasonable and the food tasted fresh and nice. However, I really do hope that they open a bigger place that can actually seat more people, was planning to bring my family there but don't think the restaurant can fit more than 4 people at a table. But! definitely going back there for thai food :)

I just got back from Thailand and this place didn't disappoint for authentic taste! We went here expecting cheap take away (and with that never the highest expectations for flavour) but were pleasantly surprised. Highly recommend the pancakes and chicken laab. Will be back asap!

I had to visit this place being a Thai food lover and reading a great review about the place in Viva supplement in the herald. We arrived early when it opened at 4.30pm for dinner(they also open for lunch) and we were lucky we did. The lovely owner told us as soon as the article was published, that night they had to turn people away as they were so busy. No sooner had we been seated that it started to pump and now I know why!

The food in a word was delicious! We started with the fishcakes and the curry puffs. You can't go past the curry puffs. I can honestly say they are the best I've ever tried. Melt in your mouth,beautiful texture and flavour,I could've eaten many more.

Our mains were next and we ordered the Choo Chee Goong (stir-fried prawns with red curry paste, kaffir lime leaves, peas and coconut cream) and the larb,a thai salad with minced chicken,fish sauce,lime and herbs. They were just as good as the appetizers The Choo Chee Goong was superb, didn't feel heavy and the prawns were perfectly cooked. The larb was an experience for the taste buds..a perfect mixture of savoury and sour.

We drove out of the area to get there and it did not disappoint. Next time I'll try some different options. There is seating but it is pretty limited, a couple of tables and a bench with seating but it is more of a takeaway venue. The only question remains...when do they open a restaurant..please!!!!

An above average Thai food experience. The spring rolls entrees were delicious as were our mains (Honey Prawns 12/10). The staff are very pleasant and willing to do anything to make you happy. My only gripe is the lack of seating, but I would eat those honey prawns standing on my head. We highly recommend this place, and the honey prawns....and my wife loves the chicken cashew nut dish too... you gotta go.. thanks guys see ya Sunday

Mmmm, I can't wait to go back here. The food was fresh and tasty and the serving sizes very generous. The meals are very reasonably priced and there was copious hot green tea. The service was attentive and friendly and we hardly had to wait for our meals. It's just what you want for an delicious, affordable meal out - and they do takeaway too!

The best Curry Puffs in Auckland. Last night we had a great meal here.We enjoyed Red Curry Prawns, Satay Chicken, Beef with garlic, Yellow Chicken Curry, Honey Chicken and Five Star Chicken. All meals were of an excellent standard and generous portions. Prices were very reasonable. We will certainly be back and will be telling all our friends.

AMAZING thai!!
really fresh ingredients and lots of them -theres always some left over for lunch the next day.
the owners are extremely friendly -she was telling us that she only wants to provide great food, -even though it costs them bit more, so that the customers are happy (and will come back)
we drive a long way to come to get thai from here, passing heaps of other thai places on the way!!
p.s. try the curry puffs -they're hand made and are freakin great!!

First time trying Thai food as a Canadian in New Zealand. It was highly recommended you me by a local here as 'the best place for Thai food in Auckland'. Overall the food was good and they were able to accommodate to my spice levels (haha). I ordered the beef black garlic, chicken pineapple fried rice, tofu drunken noodles, and shrimp red Thai curry with a side of rice (at an additional cost of $2 NZD), to try to get a variety of food. My favorite was the drunken noodles, which was a very Thai classic mix of spicy, salty, sweet, and sour. I found the red Thai curry a bit too runny and watered down for my liking, but it was very flavorful otherwise. Overall, I would go back again when I'm craving some Thai food! PS: Parking is quiet limited at this location.

I eat here many times, and the food is always delicious! Very consistent quality each and every time, and the wait time for takeaway is unbelievably quick - approx 5 mins (7 at most). The staff are super friendly too, and always remember me and my usual order. Mostly a takeaway place, but does provide a cosy atmosphere with some seating for those that wish to eat there. Huge menu selection.
