Rosniyom Thai Street Food-Livermore — Restaurant in Livermore

We stop at this unassuming Thai street-food bistro for a sit down meal whenever we go through Livermore. Mostly that's during road trips, so we try to time to stop at this freeway adjacent hot spot. We've been three or four times, so here's what I've eaten there.

For appetizers, try the deep fried pumpkin, chicken satay, or pork rib appetizers- which are big portions for sharing. Everything is so good I want to try the rest.

For mains, try the beef boat noodle soup (similar to Vietnamese phô), the kana moo kra (pork belly and Chinese broccoli - our favorite), the Pad Kee Mao chicken, or Pad Thai prawns. Every dish is a winner, so you can't go wrong with anything else from the menu.

They also have excellent thai iced tea and our favorite dessert: mango sticky rice.

You can hear the food cooking and smell the authentic spices. However, because it's authentic street food you should ask for light spice if you're sensitive.

Ros Ni Yom rivals our favorite Thai restaurants from around the bay area. If you live nearby, you have a treasure. Otherwise stop in for lunch or dinner and you won't be disappointed in...

I wish I didn’t have to give a 1 star review because I have come here about 30 times, and my thorough reviews on google have been known to completely destroy businesses, but this has to be written.

Yesterday I went here and had a noodle dish (pad kee mao) and my friend asked about his dish when it was delivered “is there any MSG in this?” And the young waitress said “yes” and my friend sent back both of our food to be remade. She then returned with the new dishes and barked at us “we sometimes use MSG and sometimes we don’t! You have to ask next time!” We are used to coming here and not getting MSG put in our food so that treatment was uncalled for and restaurants should not put MSG in their food without stating it clearly on their menu.

If anyone thinks that MSG doesn’t affect people, then perhaps that is the case with you and consider yourself lucky. For me, my friend, and many others it affects us quite badly. Horrible anxiety for hours, inability to get to sleep, and horrible diarrhea the next day.

Won’t be coming back here...

Food: Very tasty food, also VERY spicy! The person taking our oder didn't ask how spicy and as a first timer here, I didn't know to ask for mild. But definitely very flavorful dishes overall. Normally we would share everything with our small children, not today.

Green curry- SPICY Drunken Noodle- SPICY Tom Yum Soup- Mild Tom Yum Rice- Mild Pumkin App - Kid Friendly Satay- Kid Friendly

Location: Not very inviting, restaurant is in a parking lot shared by a gas station and other fast food restaurants. Not clean enough to eat outside. We traveled quite a bit so drove away to a local park.

Service: Well, I purchased $80 worth of food and when I requested hot sauce, she gave me one small container. After tasting the food, I'm not sure if she only gave me one knowing our food was already crazy spicy or if she was simply holding out on condiments. Also, I told her we would be eating in our car and didn't include disposables. So I took one star off...
