“Hands down one of the best Thai spots in town! You absolutely must try their curries—both the veg options were phenomenal and packed with flavor. The Pad Kee Mao is also a standout dish you can't miss. Truly an incredible dining experience!”
“Me and my wife are traveling through Chicago and New York for our first time visit. We’ve tried many restaurants from $10 Chicago hotdog to $20 pho to $100 seafood(RPM) to $250 fine dinning(Sepia). There are two restaurants along the way in 2 weeks we like the most(the food). One is Tuk Tuk and the other one is Leciel(in NYC). We ordered the fried shrimp(Goong Tod Sauce Ma Kham I believe) fried chicken wing, tom yum soup with prawn, and Mango Sticky Rice. We really like the shrimp and tom yum soup. Many Thai restaurant made the tom yum soup with too much lemon juice or something else that causes the soup bitter. The sauce of the fried prawn has an interesting and good flavor, we both liked that a lot. The fried chicken wing is a little above average but not that surprise as the other two. Mango Sticky Rice is very good. The mango is fresh and sweet, the sticky rice is warm and chewy. The sweetness is perfect for both of us. We spent ~$50 per person and the food quality is beyond.”
“beautiful addition to the neighborhood! Great food, great atmosphere, quality time. LERSON was amazing waiter and chose the spice level of our dishes PERFECTLY.”
“What an amazing place!! We came to Chicago on vacation and was seeking for real authentic Thai flavors. The decor was so inviting but the food will set you back to homeland flavors. The manager and the wait staff was also very super friendly and great with the recommendations. Probably the best food in a while!!”
“Everything was amazing! The dessert wasn’t really our thing though”
“Delicious food, great ambience and we were seated immediately. I am a marketer’s dream because I saw the beautiful signage out front and I thought, “dang, that sounds good!” And I convinced my friend to go here and it was fantastic! So, she will definitely be back and I would come here weekly if I lived here.”
“This place is so cute! The spice level is perfect and all the food have the most full authentic flavors! I love this place. I will definitely be back”
“Stopped in Tuk Tuk for a quick lunch and it was so good! The staff was very friendly and the food was amazing. We ordered crab rangoons, pad see eiw, the combo fried rice, and an order of the kanar moo krob. The food came out super quick and was very hot.”
“Loved everything about Tuktuk Thai Isan Street Food! The food was super flavorful and authentic. You can tell they put a lot of heart into every dish. And Vachira was awesome -- super friendly and on top of everything. We went for their grand opening. Can’t wait to go back! Update: We've been back a few times since the opening, and the food and service are still excellent!”
“The pad see ew had a nice texture and I liked the sauce. When I went, they didn't have the mango sticky rice but I hope they'll have it next time! :)”
