Krystle M.

Definitely found some delicious Thai food at Royal Yum. The menu was full of dishes to choose from it was hard to narrow it down. Our eyes were bigger than our stomachs and we ordered so much. I loved the concept of the curry sampler. They had so many different options and I'm glad we got to try a couple of them. Each curry was good. Full of flavor and loads of chicken and veggies. I loved the crab fried rice. The sweet pieces of crab went perfectly with the savory fried rice. My nephew loved everything they put on the table but he inhaled the popcorn chicken and the curry sampler. Customer service was great and all our questions were answered. The parking and getting to the restaurant was a little difficult due to construction. Royal Yum 801 Sunset St Denton, TX 76201 (Review 41 in 2025 and 884 overall)

Egg drop soup and salad
Kim W.

Visited from out of town and wanted a quick lunch. What drew me to the place were the positive reviews and the photos of the food. However, I was very disappointed. I'm almost certain they use can curry paste. My first taste of the curry, tasted like the Massaman curry I make at home. The waiter asked what spice level and I ordered medium and my brother ordered the highest spice level and it didn't have any heat to it, which makes me further believe it's not custom made. My beef on the Pad Thai was overcooked and very tough, I regretted getting that as my protein. The hot peanut butter dressing was very strange and made the salad heavy since it was really thick. The egg roll tasted store bought. The sweet sauce that comes with the egg rolls and the appetizer did not complement the food. Nothing was really outstanding besides the crispy basil chicken. I love that they put the rice in a cat mold, it makes it fun and does set them apart from a lot of other places. The three flavor chicken was good, the chicken was still very moist and had a flavorful sauce to it. Service was attentive and we always had our waters filled. The price point for lunch is reasonable for the amount of food. Our food came out fairly quick. The restaurant was very clean and roomy. I personally would not recommend this place as I feel there's likely much better Thai out there. The restaurant seemed like it had its regulars, which is great.

Kitty-shaped rice!
Kim D.

I was very impressed! The location has fun, welcoming decor and a good ampunt of space. Our server was exceptional, very friendly and attentive. We ordered a couple ofappetizers for the table, and we highly recommend the wanton nachos. It sounds odd, but tastes great! I got a tofu dish with peanut sauce and it was very good! Everyone loved what they ordered, which is always nice. I thought that the kitty-shaped rice was a great little touch, so cute! We'll definitely be returning!

Thais Thai Fried Rice with chicken
Missy R.

Food is amazing !! I got pad Thai 4*degrees spicy . Hubby got Chicken fried Thai rice. Both came with soup and a baby egg roll. Love the name ROYAL Yum Fits the place perfectly !! 5 Stars

Thai ice teas
Aphrodite K.

Best Thai food I've had since I've been in Texas! They don't watch the front door very well. Takes a minute before they noticed you walked in, but once seated the service is great.

Sukiyaki Stir-Fry Noodles
Mary B.

Really wanted Thai for dinner and usually order from Thai Square. Finding parking is alway challenging for Thia Square, so decided to order from Royal YUM. With the street Sunset being under construction parking in the business area across might be necessary. Sukiyaki Stir-Fry Noodles with chicken was ordered and it was a delicious dish.

Doo Dee Tom Yum Noodle Soup
Dane W.

My wife and I decided to try this place for our anniversary dinner. We really enjoyed the service and the speed of our food was great. Plus the food was amazing at a great price. We came in around four so it wasn't too busy. The place was real nice with calming music.

Lettuce wrap
Karina C.

Great tasting food. The kids and I shared the lettuce wraps, Thai dumplings, orange chicken and Thai fried rice. It was all delicious, especially the lettuce wraps. I am going back soon because it was so good. Service was great too. Very attentive. Only thing I was a little disappointed in is they chill their Cabernet Sauvignon. It's suppose to be served room temp. But that's ok, the food and service is worth going back.

Garlic shrimp

Really great food and service. I had garlic shrimp and my husband had Kung Pao chicken. Restaurant was nice and clean and relaxing. Waitress was very polite and on top of everything.

Great customer service . Nice staff . Tremendous food , highly recommend. Great cooks in the…read morekitchen.

First time here and... yeah, we've already mentally added it to the regular rotation…read more We ordered the Wagyu spring rolls, chicken lettuce wraps, and the Spicy General Tso's chicken, and every single thing showed up exactly how you hope it will when you're hungry and a little picky (hi, it's me). The Wagyu spring rolls? Golden, crispy perfection. That first bite cracks just right and then hits you with that rich, savory Wagyu goodness mixed with a little crunch from the veggies--small but mighty in the best way. The chicken lettuce wraps were so good. Super flavorful without being heavy--perfect balance with the savory sauce, mushrooms, and water chestnuts giving it that little crunch moment. Bonus points for the crispy rice sticks because texture matters and they understood the assignment. And the Spicy General Tso's... this is where they really showed off. Crispy chicken tossed in that sweet-heat Sriracha sesame situation with garlic, chili flakes, and just enough kick to keep things interesting without taking you out. Every bite was hot, fresh, and actually consistent--which, let's be honest, is rare and appreciated. Everything came out hot, quick, and tasted like someone in the kitchen actually cares about what they're doing. And the staff? That's what sealed it. They took a cute, quaint little spot and turned it into a genuinely fun dinner vibe. The kind of place where you don't feel rushed, just taken care of. Now... the only heartbreak of the night: finding out we narrowly missed their boba era Saw the machine wrapped up front like a retired legend and got the story--they were doing boba, but it didn't make the cut. A true "we could've had it all" moment. I'll recover... eventually. Safe to say... we'll be back. Probably sooner than we should be.

Teriyaki Madness Denton -- officially cured my noodle craving!…read more I've been craving noodles for days, and Teriyaki Madness came through like a hero. We ordered a regular spicy chicken (noki-style) with noodles turned combo (plus a drink and egg roll), the regular teriyaki salmon with noodles and veggies, and of course had to throw in crab rangoons and wontons -- because balance. Everything was so good. The chicken had that perfect spicy kick, the salmon was tender and flavorful, and the noodles were pure comfort food perfection. You can tell everything's cooked fresh, not sitting under a heat lamp somewhere. The portions? Generous. The flavor? Addictive. The satisfaction level? 11/10. If you're in Denton and craving something that hits that sweet spot between fast and actually delicious, this is your sign -- go get the noodles.

Teriyaki Madness has a simple menu, but they're clearly focused on doing it well. The food was…read moregreat, and I'll definitely be coming back. I had the teriyaki chicken bowl with fried rice and stir-fried veggies, plus an order of crab rangoons to start. The rangoons were a surprise hit--they looked more like mini tacos or empanadas, perfectly crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. Total comfort food. The chicken had a little more char than I prefer on some pieces, but it was still juicy, and I'm chalking that up to new-opening kinks. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, even if they were still working through some early hiccups. There was a bit of confusion when we tried to use a BOGO entrée coupon from their app, but they stuck with it until it got sorted out. Once we were settled with our food, multiple team members came by to check in, which was a nice touch and showed they care about the customer experience. As for the space, the interior is small, and we ended up at the last 2-top table in the hallway by the drink station and restrooms, which sounds worse than it was. It actually wasn't bad, and the whole place had a clean, casual vibe. The prices were fair, and the portion sizes were just right, not too much, not too little. Like Goldilocks, it hit the sweet spot. I'm definitely looking forward to going back once they've had time to fully hit their stride!
