4.7 (5)Los Cristianos10-20 €
Yim Siam Thai Food is a Thai restaurant near Plaza Fontana in Los Cristianos, cooked by Thai chefs rather than run as a generalist Asian menu. Reviewers repeatedly single out the appetizers, especially the crisps served with a sweet, delicate sauce, and the khao soi noodles, which come with a separately served hot sauce for those who want more heat.
Staff are frequently praised for handling dietary questions carefully; one visitor with coeliac disease specifically noted how clearly the waitress explained which dishes were safe. The restaurant regularly fills up in the evening, so booking ahead is a sensible move rather than relying on a walk-in table.

A place on a busy street corner serving extremely good Thai appetizers. The flavors of the appetizers were perfect! I definitely recommend eating there on your Tenerife vacation. The main courses were less impressive, but still delicious.

The Khao Soi noodles were very delicate yet spicy. The additional sauce was very spicy, but I had been warned. The friendly staff provided an appetizer of crisps with a delicious, delicate, sweet sauce. Thai cuisine captivates with its composition of flavors, and that is exactly what happens here. I recommend this restaurant.

The staff here are so nice and friendly. My husband has coeliac disease and the first night we went here the waitress was so knowledgeable about the menu and what was safe for him to eat (most of it!) We enjoyed it so much we returned the following evening and had an equally beautiful meal with the reassurance that it was a safe place for my husband to eat. Would highly recommend!

Do yourself a favour and reserve a table because this place is always full! We were lucky to get a table for 2 because someone cancelled. The food was simply gorgeous, the staff was kind and helpful, and the overall atmosphere really relaxed. One of the best Thai places I've tried. Would absolutely come again.
