Another excellent addition your list of Thai restaurants in Birmingham!…read more They've only been there for 6 years and I finally made it. Even though I didn't dine in, I appreciated the beautiful decor and the attention to detail. Gone from their early days during the pandemic when they were take out only to their newly renovated and larger dining area. There's nice bar with stools nearly centered in the restaurant. Employees are more friendly than you can imagine. Located on 280 near the Greystone entrance, YYST is on the right in a small quaint strip shopping area that's raised "above" 280. So if you're driving by you can see YYST by looking up. There's no outdoor seating, but plenty of tables and chairs inside with seating at the bar. They are quite proud of their Yelpies 2025 award for "Beloved Birmingham Business" which sits at the front entrance. Their menu is comprehensive with the right amount of dishes to satisfy. Every "Thai" place seems to have their own take on most dishes and YYST is no different. Their "recommended" entrees include Mango fish, Pad Thai Chakangrao, Massamun Short Rib, Pad Thai Wings and Panang New York Strip. Then they also have "Signature Plates" whose menu descriptions had my mouth watering. There's also stir fry, curries, salads, and even a lunch menu. Since I wasn't dining, I was going to do my litmus test and try their version they call Beef Drunken Uncle noodle. I also ordered their Fresh Basil Shrimp Rolls, and Bangkok market fried rice. I waited at the bar for about 10 minutes when my packaged meals arrived. I was offered a glass of cool water as I waited at the bar. The rolls were wrapped in saran wrap and I would guess were probably made a couple of days ago. Nothing wrong with that except I got unlucky and rice paper wrapper was almost crunchy. They were a little heavy on the use of lettuce, but each had 4 large fresh shrimp. The taste wasn't anything spectacular BUT their version of the dipping peanut sauce saved it. Yom Yom Yom! The fried rice was delicious. Tossed in a wok with eggs, onions, chinese broccoli and their house sauce, I had beef added as the protein and it was delicious. My Drunken noodle was very good! This traditional street food inspired dish is a classic. Wide noodles tossed with snap beans, garlic, onions, bell peppers with thai chili and basil, their version is quite good! It had great flavor and an excellent representation of the drunken noodle. Next time I might have to pay extra for a fried egg on top. Yom Yom Yom Yom! I'm glad I finally visited YYST. I am looking forward to returning and this time dining in. The Panang New York Strip and Mango Fish have my name on them!

However, sizzling rice soup never sizzled and was barely warm. Wait staff was non-attentive and fully engaged on their phones even though we were the only dine-in customers.

I'm really sorry to say this. I don't normally do negative reviews, honestly. I moved to Alabaster…read morethree months ago and I've given this place two tries. The first time was a "spicy" chicken dish that you don't normally see on local menus. I even requested that it was made extra spicy. It had ZERO spice. And the vegetables did not match the dish description on their "order online" website. The steamed dumplings had no flavor and the dumpling sauce was also watery. I tried them again tonight, just to see if maybe it was a bad day the first time around. I ordered a combo plate that comes with an entree with fried rice and an eggroll. I paid $2 extra to upgrade my rice to lo-mein. I got home and... They gave me fried rice. My entree was sweet and sour pork and the oil they fried it in was so old that my whole house now smells like old, dirty, fishy smelling fryer oil. Sorry. I gave you two tries and you didn't hit the mark either time. Never again.

Great to reuse to send leftovers with the college kids.

I went on an afternoon and was nervous because I didn't see any customers sitting in the restaurant, but I did see a lot of DoorDash (DD) drivers come by and pick up orders, so I'm glad that DD ordering is an option. I was immediately greeted and given a menu. I noticed that they have a lot of sushi options and will have to check that out next time. But for this visit, I decided to try the chicken and shrimp Pad Thai, with an order of spring rolls and steamed pot stickers. Everything was cooked to order and served fresh. The sauces that came with the spring rolls and the pot stickers really made those appetizers because they had a lot of seasonings in those sauces. I did notice that the pot stickers were so soft that they were kind of falling apart, so next time, I try their fried pot stickers. The star of the visit was the Pad Thai. It was a little on the spicy side, but tasted great nonetheless. Even on my to-go order, they gave me a lot of noodles... enough to eat on it for two days. I really enjoyed this place and I highly recommend it.

I love the sauce that comes with it! I have also had a great yuzu margarita there, which I would recommend if you want a cocktail! My most recent order was the Super Crunch Roll. I got this to go, and I picked it based off of previous Yelp reviews. It was delicious but didn't necessarily blow me away, especially for it to be ~$17. It left me feeling hungry, whereas I usually feel quite full from a sushi roll. They have a lovely outdoor patio for whenever the weather is nice. They do allow you to bring your dog to sit with you! Service can be hit or miss at times, but overall, we have had great experiences. They have a HH 4-6 Thursday-Sunday, which is nice if you can make it then. It includes 1/2 price appetizers, $5 cocktails (marg, mojito, cucumber collins, and mule), beer, wine, and sake. I attached the menu for this. I believe the HH and lunch special pricing is only offered for dine-in.
