Thai Niyom Restaurant — Restaurant in Hong Kong Island

Very flavorful and authentic Thai food. Space is a bit small so if you go during rush hr be prepared to wait.

Lunch menu is small but packs a wide variety of dishes, most authentic dishes are the expected green curry, Krapow, Tom yum.

a la carte dinner menu is about as authentic as they come, and taste extremely similar to super local, hole in the wall type restaurants in Thailand. (It also less crowded for dinner)

Decor leaves a lot to be desired but if you go for an authentic Super local thai experience then this will tick all your boxes. The quality of food and friendliness of owners and staff can make u forget you’re still in HK for just a little bit.

4.5 overall but respectable 5 for the food. Truly authentic spot for Thai food that is well flavoured. All good comes out very hot and freshly made. This is a spot where it doesn't require items to be drenched in sauce to taste well - the base itself is good and well flavoured without it being too salty nor sweet nor spicy. Extremely reasonably priced as well. There is very limited seating and line ups happen regularly - be prepared. The presentation of food is good and the restaurant overall is very clean although it looks like a hole in the wall. Worth trying and coming back to...

The hainan style chicken with yellow rice had pure white meat which was good because there were less bones and the rice was soft and fragrant with a strong coconut taste which you could smell. As for the chicken, it was...
