    Good service, good food. There special today was crispy garlic chicken with rice. It has a lot of garlic, and we loved it! The sauce was so good. It went very well with the calamari sticks.

    Went in for lunch. I ordered the Thai Basil which was fantastic. Lunch portions are perfect for not feeling stuffed like pig for the rest of the day. Oh, and that spring roll is a reason on its own to come back.

    Absolutley Delicious! Went out with some friend's and decided to stop here for dinner. Service was excellent, wasn't that long of the wait for food. One of my friend got the yellow curry bowl/ chicken & beef, it was his time with thai cuisine. He loved it !

    Great food and wonderful service! Definitely recommend Tuptim Thai for GREAT Thai food. The food and drinks came SO FAST, even though the restaurant was mildly busy. Our waitress was kind, attentive, and made the best recommendations. The Pad See Ew was full of flavor. The Panang Curry was so coconutty! I love spicy food and the medium heat was just enough. The coconut sticks were so yummy, and the crunchy crunchy shrimp lived up to their name! The Thai tea was decent, and the (in season) sticky rice and mango was a perfect way to end the meal. The mango was chilled, sweet and tart. The sticky rice was sweet, warm, and coconutty, just the way we like it!

    Since we discovered this place last summer, we’ve been coming back about once a month to try different menu items. We like the freshness of the ingredients and flavor profiles on most of the dishes. Flavor consistency is somewhat of a challenge still. Overall, the flavors are pretty decent and the food is always good. Service is always great here. My new favorite dish is the turmeric fried rice. It has more of the savory curry notes than turmeric and I am good with that because too much turmeric can make the dish a little bitter.

    The server was really sweet, and I'm glad to come back to an even better ambiance. I used to come here with friends pre-COVID and the restaurant has adapted great(more booths and sectioned tables) while keeping their high quality and authentic food with multiple spice levels. Their parking lot could use some TLC tho, I almost forgot where this great restaurant was.

    We very much enjoyed our first dinner at Tupim. We ordered the Basil fried rice and Pad Thai, mango spring rolls as the app. Both entrees were delicious, fresh and served hot. The mango spring rolls and sauce were delightful. We will definitely be back when we're in the area!

    Excellent experience. I had never been to Tuptim Thai before or had the food, but many of my friends raved about how good the food is. We went for dinner and had the money bags (sorry no picture we ate them all too quickly), crab fried rice, and sweet tuptim. The dishes were amazing and the service was phenomenal! Definitely going to be added into our restaurant rotation.

    I visited Tuptim Thai for the first time, and was blown away. We had a very large party with multiple little ones. The staff was amazing, extremely friendly and organized. They got all of our orders perfect. Not one detail was missed. The food is both visually stunning and fantastically prepared. I had the Lucky Noodles w/ Beef and it was superb. Their decorations are beautiful and well curated. The atmosphere is perfect for comfort, but also upscale enough to have that special occasion feel. I'd call this place an instant favorite and highly recommend it. P.S. Thai food often carries a stigma about spiciness, whereas this can be true of some places, it's important to note that Tuptim Thai spices to preference, so all you need to do is tell them you'd like it mild.

    The service was great! We had 5 adults for lunch. The Lychee Tea was good. Make sure to ask for the special noodle soup. Also the drunken noodles with tofu were great!. Lots of fresh vegetable options. You can order ahead and pick up to go.

    Maybe it's good for the American taste, but to someone who spent 10 yeas over there, this is not authentic Thai food taste. Every bite of every dish tastes like a sweet dessert.

    Was hoping for some really good Thai food. The curries we ordered were so sweet we couldn't begin to finish them. The yellow curry was even sweeter than the red curry. Not sure how that was even possible. We took the left overs home because of how pricey the meal was. Ended up throwing the leftovers away. Sad deal. A on plating of the food. F in the food taste.

    3.3 stars. Passing through the area and stopped for some quick Thai. Friendly employees greeted and seated us. Ordered spring rolls ($8.99) which were served with peanut sauce. Sauce was watery and not very peanutty. My son and I both ordered the Drunken Noodles ($14.25 each). Plating was standard with some fresh cut slaw and an orange slice for garnish. Noodles were flat but not the wide flat noodles we're accustomed to in past experiences with this dish at other Thai restaurants. Flavors were good and needed a tad more heat. Overall, this was a fair experience. With tip, lunch ran us $48 for two. The other customers seemed to be enjoying their meals so this is likely a popular spot.

    What a great place! The decor is awesome and my server was full of happiness! The spring rolls are very tasty and the Tom Kha Shrimp was outstanding! Lots of shrimp and the correct mushrooms!

    This was my first time to the elegant Tuptim Thai restaurant. I enjoyed the Garden Soup with shrimp and it was filled with vegetables and was wonderful. I had the Pad Thai with chicken and it was expertly prepared and was a nice presentation. For dessert I experienced the super fresh mango and sticky rice . It was topped with coconut and had a sweet, warm sauce. Delicious! My server, Megan, was very attentive and made a couple of suggestions.

    Haven't been here for years, but Tuptim was my first experience with Thai food and set the bar on flavor and atmosphere. This trip was nice. The service was top notch, and the atmosphere elegant, tho very busy, as it was a Friday evening. The food was plated beautifully, but a tad disappointing - it was way too sweet. As I hadn't been in years, I ordered Pad Thai and it just wasn't what I remembered. I recall a perfectly crafted balance of flavors and more veggies than came with this. And in the last decade I'm certain the servings have gotten much smaller Maybe it's just been too long and maybe it's just the way things change, tho I ate it, it was not quite what I expected. Still a nice night out with my hubby.

    The service was great. Our host was very delightful. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for the food. The chicken skewers were plain. The wings were not bad. I ordered red curry. My Mom ordered yellow curry. Both were way too sweet. Unfortunately, she refused to eat hers. I didn't want to have to pack mine home, so I finished as much as I could. I was quite disappointed with the pad see ew and the pad thai. Both lacked flavor.

    Really good Thai food! We ordered the money bags appetizer, pineapple fried rice, and the pad Thai gang dang. The pad Thai was quite sweet but still good. Friendly staff and quick service too!

  • 4/5 Brian S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great little Thai restraunt, one of our work staples when we all want to go out. The food is not as spicy as traditional Thai. Probably because Americans don't know what they are really getting into when they ask for that type of spiciness. I was disappointed in that, but the food is still delish!

  • 5/5 Ralph G. 1 year ago on Google
    We always love going to Tuptim Thai! The food is definitely top-notch - pad Thai noodles, money bags, soups, you name it, just fabulous! Staff is very friendly, prices are reasonable, good for lunch or dinner.

    My boyfriend introduced me to this place and I'm obsessed!!!! The best ginger fried rice, yellow curry, and pad Thai I've ever had! And you know I always request Thai hot!!

  • 4/5 Jetsy R. 1 year ago on Google
    Took my husband here for his birthday. Food was delicious although not as spicy as my husband would've hoped. They don't have a kids menu, but my daughter tried the coconut chicken and enjoyed her meal.

    I ordered the angel hair tie noodles they were salty they were very very salty I asked if I can get them replaced and the waiter said will these won't be salty I couldn't figure out how he would know they wouldn't be salty so anyway I tried them and they were still salty I ordered the spring rolls and spring rolls we're dry the tofu was tough in the peanut sauce did not even have peanuts in it nor did it taste like peanut sauce I also ordered the coconut soup it did not taste like coconut soup it taste like the lemongrass soup when I told the waiter about the soup he said that he can put more coconut in it I have to say the atmosphere was great the waiter was very nice and polite the staff were great too but the food it was just not good at all definitely was not Thai food at all.

    I just love this restaurant, I will go there after work sometimes and their massaman curry is my go to item and it is absolutely amazing, I've had a few of their appetizers like the money bags of course and the coconut chicken, the calamari and each are so so good. The Thai tea is so tasty. Never had a bad experience there
