Brilliant – Love the decor, food presentation and service. Met the Chef, very unassuming but confident. Pad Thai was wonderful, garlic tofu was a bit on the garlicky side but great. The spring rolls were unbelieveable. Will revisit often.

Great place – The bamboo bar, arched ceilings, wood floors and tasty color palate blend nicely with the wonerful food and creative drink menu. The staff is friendly, sometimes rushed, it is very busy on the weekends. For a more intimate experience try an off day (Tuesday or Wednesday). On street parking is sufficient on weekdays. For a good discount use your KCRW (10%) card or Rewards Retwork CC (10%). Crying Tiger Beef, Pear Salad & a Singha is my fav meal. Happy dining.

Mediocre -don't waste your time or your money – I lived in Thailand for nearly a year and can tell you there is nothing authentic about this Thail food, nor is it fresh, and the ingredients are questionable. When I ordered take-out, I got a price over the phone but was then charged more than I was quoted. When I questioned it, they said they'd made a mistake on the phone. I thought it was shady. A male friend of mine goes here a lot and when I ate there with him the food wasn't bad. But when I went in alone to have a quick l... read more

Wonderful Restaurant – I know, PAD THAI is such a farang dish to order. I love it, can't help it...I've tried many times to order other things but I'm always left wishing I would have gotten the PAD THAI. Tuk-Tuk does a mean Pad Thai. One of the best I've ever had.

Still the best Thai in Los Angeles – Been in SF for a couple years. Moved back to West LA because of FOX (UGH). I feel like such a sleaze. Any-who, couldn't wait to visit friends at tuk-tuk. The new remodel is charming, but is the food still good? BETTER! Everything about tuk-tuk makes me want to stay in LA. FOX should put this restaurant on the payroll, it's really the only reason to work at FOX *because it's so close). Well, back to putting my head up RM's A$$.

Not Good At All, Expensive, Overcharged, dishonest, Avoid this place – After reading some reviews here I've decided to give Tuk Tuk Thai a try (even with the negative reviews). The negative reviews are so true. This is my first time ordering from Tuk Tuk Thai and this will also be my last time doing business with them because the food is not that good, they are expensive, they deceptively overcharge you, and totally dishonest. I don't do business with shady people. I totally do not recommend Tuk Tuk Thai. Stay away from this... read more

Thai staple – You'll never go wrong with tuk-tuk. We've been dining here for 8 years, always quality and great service. It gets really busy on weekends so (first timers) try week days . Curry dumpling, crying tiger beef and a Hoegarden.

Love this place! – Thai restaurants aren't usually known for their ambiance, but this place is super cute and romantic. The food is really great, authentic and fresh. The service is fine, I wouldn't call it 2nd level but they get the job done. My fiance and I love going here, it's great for an impromptu night out and it's pretty inexpensive too. Try the coconut curry dumplings and the pad thai.
