Mouth watering Thai food . Had ordered through skip the dishes and believe me the food reached in less than the estimated time for delivery .
If you are a spicy food lover , Devil’s chicken is got to be your pick . Haven’t tried all the main course dishes yet , but their Tamarind chicken is also quite decent . The place is a must for Thai lovers in the town .
Thai inspired cuisine always has a special place in my heart (which is in my stomach). The staff are very educated on the menu and are happy to cater to any dietary special requests! The portions are quite satisfying indeed and although its a small space on 17th its a very well used small space!Anything on the menu is delicious! Ambiance is very refreshing and sufficient lighting great for lunch or dinner with colleagues or a date! I usually order take out since I live 2 doors down :) The noodles are well cooked and amazing bursts of what I can only assume is authentic Thai flavors!!
Good place for fast-food style Thai. Portions are generous, and everything is always prepared quickly and tastes fresh. The Massaman beef curry ($10) was nicely balanced and flavourful, and the quality of the beef was good. I was disappointed that there were no peanuts in the curry, though. I had previously gotten the sweet rice dessert ($5) and it was really good, but unfortunately the most recent time I ordered it it was pretty bad. The rice was sweet and had a nice coconut flavour, but the dish was ridiculously salty (I'm not sure if someone maybe added salt instead of sugar?!) and the mango was horribly stringy. Might be back to try some of the other main dishes but I'll probably skip dessert.
Randomly found this restaurant while on 17th Ave and decided to try it out! Interior was beautiful, great atmosphere.
Ordered Pad Thai with chicken, the flames, ginger prawns and vegetarian spring rolls. Both mains were great, my boyfriend and I thought the two appetizers were very average.
I would recommend ordering the mains only - we plan on returning to try them all! Prices were very reasonable for the amount of food you get.
Stopped in for lunch during the week. I would consider Tuk Tuk Thai more of a fast food restaurant where you can sit and eat or take it to go. My friend ordered Pad Thai $10 which came in the most intricate folded lotus flower-shaped box while I went straight for dessert and ordered the Sweet Rice (sticky rice, coconut milk, fresh mango) $5. while I thought the portion of the dessert was small, it was probably the right amount for such a sweet dish.
Personally I think it’s a little expensive but I also find Thai food a bit pricier than the other Asian cuisines. The pricing is however, comparable to other Thai fast food such as Pad Thai in the malls – and if that’s what you’re comparing it to, then Tuk Tuk Thai is much better in both quality and value.
Service was excellent. I was surprised when someone from the back/kitchen, actually came by to our table to ask how our food was. Elevated fast food restaurant.
Although it isn't authentic Thai food place, I wouldn't mind eating here again. The ambience is great and the service is prompt. Food tastes good and serves well to have quick lunch on working days.
Great place. Had a couple bumps in the road due to new staff however wherever they have fallen short I have talked to them personally and they always make the situation right.
I was privileged to try the noodles made by the winner of the Bangkok pad Thai contest. A famous old man down off of thong la train station. That is the standard to which I base all pad Thais. And of all I've tried in this city, tuk Tuks come fairly close. Of course with every pad Thai you have to season yourself. Some prefer sweeter. I myself prefer more sour and pungent. Sweet pad Thais are western thing, as it should have balance between all 5 flavours. Tuk Tuks always fulfill that craving and at a great price too.
I thought that Tuk Tuk Thai lived up to my Thai takeout expectations. I was fully satisfied with my tasty meal, and will most definitley return. I also recommend buying two meals if you plan on eating alone, one for lunch and one for dinner!
I've seen this place during my numerous passes up and down 17th Avenue over the months and always wondered about what the food tasted like. Well yesterday I had the chance to pop by for a quick pad Thai which was really good and a papaya salad.
The papaya salad was fresh, crispy, and full of flavour. A little on the wet sauce side but hey we did finish it easily.
The interior was quite mesmerizing where I caught myself staring at the giant Montage that you just don't see these days in food offerings around town. The decorative mini cab vehicles were a nice touch.
Price was reasonable at $16ish for the two dishes total. The pad Thai came in their signature take out box that opened like a flower blossom into a dish, kinda cool.

Flavourful, fast nutritious lunch is what I had here. Been wanting to try this place for a while. Finally...
Ordered the Flames (beef stir fry with fresh vegetables) and an appetizer portion (2) of chicken spring rolls. Both were delicious.
The space is colourfully decorated with photos and murals depicting scenes in Thailand. The unique salad bar and beverage fridge housed in the back end of a tuk tuk (Thai scooter - sport ute). Seating comprises 2 communal tables (for 22) and one round table for 2-3.
Within 10 minutes my order was ready and I was enjoying it in a unique paper box which resembles a lotus flower and opens up as a bloomed lotus (cool!). The Flames beef stir fry had slices of round beef blended with colourful fresh vegetables, yellow carrots, broccoli, green beans, bamboo shoots and plenty of fresh Thai basil. The sauce had enough heat for me, but a touch sweet (for my personal taste). Shriracha sides are available for extra heat. Also came with a choice of jasmine or coconut rice (latter at no extra charge!). It is very good value for $10.
The spring rolls were freshly fried, served piping hot out of the fryer with a thimble of sweet chili dipping sauce. They were stuffed with a mixture of mung bean vermicelli, wood fungus, carrots and carrots. (2 for $3).
This reminds me of street food in Bangkok, but with upscale seating and a clean, colourful washroom. Beats some of the YYC food trucks for value.
I'll be back.
Note: the entrance door may not be obvious. It features an automatic sliding door (a la Star Trek). Walk towards the middle of the shop facade and the door will open. More cool!
We went wandering up 17th Ave looking for a place to eat and this little gem caught our eyes. Delicious food, cute little building with a tuk tuk inside, very clean restaurant.
Didn't actually stop into the restaurant itself but got some through Door Dash. Pad Thai was delicious and the noodles were chewy. The green curry was actually spicy but not over the top such that you'd be running for milk. The Thai ice tea was smooth, delicious and actually not overpriced. As a great terminator once said, "I'll be back..."
It was my first time and I've order pad thai and spring rolls. First of all, their package design was so cute and unique. And the food was delicious! The prawns were enough and the sauce was matched with noodle well. Everything was great!
I think I will often order food here 😋
I got the Chicken Pad Thai delivered, the packaging was beautiful inside and out! The chicken was a bit bland and dry, but the noodles was quite flavorful!
First time customer and enjoyed the vibe walking into the place for pickup. Ordered tamarind chicken lotus box and tom yum prawns. The chicken was nicely coated with a good level of heat and the soup was pretty authentic (good dose of lemon grass).
Overall a good experience and will be trying other items on the menu..maybe the Drunken Basa?
Ordered take out via skip the dishes app. The food is delicious, non greasy and flavourful. One important to note is the packaging - whether its compostable or recyclable is amazing. It also holds all the food very well and unique to how it opens and stores food. The thai ice tea is perfectly sweetened - not too sweet. A really good place to grab some thai food (that seems like fast food but doesnt taste anything like it).
