    Enjoyed an amazing meal here tonight. Friendly staff and great table by the window. The spicy Thai beef stir fry and the mango coconut curry we will be back again for. Delicious!

    Went here with my mother and daughters. The food was fabulous and the staff were professional's and ever so friendly. They have a great menu and can't wait to go back to try something different. All in all a great dining out experience!

    Beautiful food, although I did expect mine to be a bit hotter. Salt & chilli chips, which my friend had with her chilli beef, were the nicest I've ever tasted. The young man who waited on our table was so nice and friendly, with a genuine smile for everyone that came in. Happily recommend and will be back again soon hopefully

    First time. Very interesting menu.food was excellent both on presentation and flavour. Staff were great. Scarcely what you might expect from the outside, but a real treat inside. Thankyou.

    Our first visit and it won't be our last. The food was excellent and so fresh. It was nice to get something a bit different too. Lovely venue and a relaxed atmosphere. Staff were first class. Jack in particular looked after us so well. Well done Tuk Tuk, Ards we'll be back.

    Had a delicious meal, choose selection of dishes to share: pad Thai, salt & chilli chicken, holy basil beef, spring rolls - all absolutely delicious, can't recommend the food and the service highly enough!

    Great staff and amazing food. Have both dined in and taken away and it’s top notch. A firm favourite!

    Amazing food served by the nicest people. The owner has a clear enthusiasm for his work and is rightly proud of it. We asked them to serve a birthday doughnut and they were so lovely about it!

    This was my first visit to a well thought of restaurant which you must book in advance and on line with a £10 deposit. The atmosphere was cordial and the service brisk. No starter on this occasion but our mains where Thai Green chicken curry and crispy sweet chilli chicken with egg fried rice, and sweet chilli fries. The food was fabulous and we tried a little of each others. Dessert was Mango and Passion Fruit sorbet. On the down side, soft drinks are from a large bottle and have lost their sparkle, and while the waitresses were hard working and busy they didn't need the guy in shorts and a T shirt barking orders at them even if he was the owner/manager. Let the girls get on, they were doing their job just fine. Having said that, we will return as the food was a delight.

    I had been meaning to try this place for a while and had heard good things... And... Everything I had heard was true! The food was exquisite and not overhyped at all. The portions were very generous. The staff were really friendly and the place was spotless. Definitely worth going to, and if you don't love locally it is definitely worth the drive.

    Superb Thai food and super service. Lovely decor too. Looking forward to going again.

    Incredible food. Lovely atmosphere. Just briliant all round. My new favourite restaurant for sure. Can't wait to come back.

  • 5/5 Paul M. 1 year ago on Google
    My wife went with her friends and said it was very nice indeed. I got a carry out and it was the best tasting carryout I have ever had. The taste was outstanding and more than enough to eat. The meal I had was Tai Green Curry. I cannot comment on anything else at this time but will definitely be eating there again.

    Sat in last night for the first time and the food and service was exceptional!!! Curry parcels and duck parcels chicken satay skewers were the best I’ve ever had also would highly recommend the sweet and sour king prawns with chilli 😋can’t wait to return well done tuk tuk staff were very attentive

    We're over visiting from Scotland on our honeymoon and this has honestly been one of the best meals we've had in a long time! So much so, we've booked in again before we go home! Everything was just so tasty and the vegetarian options are fantastic. Service is great and the staff are so friendly. Can't wait to come back! :)

    Have ordered a few takeaways from here and it’s always been really nice. I’ve just had a masaman curry and it was super tasty and full of flavour only thing I have to say was that I ordered beef but I got chicken instead but it was still nice and there was just one small cube of potato in the dish. My partner had the Thai crispy duck and it was good as well. The food was ready super quick but overall the food is really lovely.

    Excellent Asian restaurant, everything is made fresh, the menu is very detailed and dishes are broken down by country of origin. Also very good at catering for my vegan friends.

  • 1/5 Linda W. 1 year ago on Google
    Tried to book a table online, absolutely awful... Choose a date, ok. Enter the number of diners, no option for 3, then choose a date, number of diners. Endless loop. Tried telephoning, even worse. This American voice telling me I was 1st in the queue, again and again and again. Think I'll try somewhere else.

    First time here and we will be back. Great menu and lovely decor and atmosphere. No need to order starters as main course very filling......

  • 3/5 Philip S. 2 years ago on Google
    My wife and I had lunch here yesterday. Service was, initially at least, friendly and efficient - the sole visible staff member subsequently appeared to get involved in an interminably-long phone call, snd while his voice continued to resonate, he himself was invisible! The food was all right - had better, had worse! Helpings seem to be pretty generous. I thought the bill very extortionate for lunch for two. TukTuk was okay, but we agreed that neither of us would be in any great hurry to return.

    Really nice restaurant. Atmosphere was great, staff were wonderful and the food was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend the Beef Panang

  • 5/5 Lynnette S. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely love Tuk Tuk. First time I've taken my little one, and just like me, she loves it too. Her wee face when her food came out was just a picture. 🥰

  • 5/5 David A. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food, Great service and Great atmosphere, I look forward returning again.

  • 5/5 Ronnie R. 1 year ago on Google
    Another excellent meal, great food and authentic flavour. A special mention for the great, friendly service.

  • 5/5 Natasha S. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent food. Fresh with no MSG. Vegan and vegetarian option. Beautiful decor. Small intimate venue so booking in advance is a must. Front of house manager was hilarious.
