I love how much they love their tuk tuk theme. All the dishes with meat can be swapped to tofu, and they clearly mark what items have fish sauce in them! The pad see ew and chinese broccoli dishes were very tasty, and the passion fruit lemonade refreshing. It's really nice to see a Thai restaurant that deviates from the standard menu to include more dishes.

This place gets mixed reviews by Thai food “purists” locally but I’ve been here several times, as well as other places in town, and Tuk Tuk has never done me wrong. Service is always good, the food is always tasty, the staff is knowledgeable about vegan, and they are always willing to make it as spicy as I want.

Absolutely amazing place. Best food is have had in Soooo long.
Hoy Joh for to start was delicious.
We had the Ping Chicken and Holy Basil Chicken for meals. The Ping Chicken was juicy and the Tamarind sauce perfect. Holy Basil Chicken was out of this world. I recommend ordering some lettuce leaves with it!!! The service was wonderful and they helped with allergies as well.
Cocktails are top notch and fresh tasting.

Good place to have food. Good food and good quantity. I usually order #35 Khao Soi Chicken and I do like it a lot. Atmosphere is also nice. I do recommend the restaurant.

This place is always a hit! Their food is consistently good. I usually get the pad see eew, and my kids almost always get the panang curry. Their Thai tea is good, too. Service is always friendly, even when we have a large group. This is one of our favorite Thai stops.

Everything is great just don’t ask for butter and sugar for your rice.

I brought my family here for dinner. The food was delicious. The staff was attentive and friendly. The server’s smile was contagious!

Best Thai restaurant I've ever been to, period. Consistently spectacular food, with many delicious vegan options. Most curries and noodle dishes have a vegan option (clearly labeled on menu) which comes with fried tofu and veggies. There are great vegan entrees too. The massaman curry is my go-to, but I've never had anything that was less than incredible.
The service matches the food quality too. The other day, they forgot to add one of the vegetables in my curry (probably the only service mistake I've ever had during my many times there.) Somehow they realized that on their end without me even noticing, and within a couple minutes of the food coming out, they brought the missing vegetables in a separate bowl with extra curry. The fact that they did that, when I wouldn't have even noticed otherwise, speaks volumes.
In my opinion, this is a truly special gem in Tucson's amazing food scene.

We had four different meals and a dessert and all were fantastic and almost everything on the menu was gluten free. My wife cant have gluten so it was a great surprise that she could order almost anything on the menu instead of just a couple of things.

I got the pumpkin tofu curry and I simply cannot recommend it enough!! So tasty I’ve been thinking about it since I had it 4 days ago. Delicious is an understatement! I would’ve given it five stars if happy cow let me.
Absolutely delicious food! Friendly and fast service and a very well maintained and clean establishment Tuk Tuk is definitely top notch authentic food. Do yourself the biggest favor and get the wings and calamari!!!

Cute restaurant with excellent service. They were very friendly. We got the iced Thai tea, mango sticky rice, crispy basil chicken, and Summer shrimp rolls. Everything was excellent.
Seated right away on Christmas evening, $67 for 3 adults which included 2 cocktails, we left stuffed and absolutely blown away by the flavors, and awesome service. -Fresh summer rolls with tofu -#29 (not spicy at all...so so flavorful, add white rice-we got 2 sides) -#43- get extra tamarind sauce you'll love it on everything! -the 2 cocktails, and a lemonade.
Price and quantity was on point. This was our 2nd time here but it had been so long felt like the 1st time, we will be back!
For it being the end of the night, on a holiday the service was on point, food was hot and fresh, drinks were perfect..glad we stopped in!

This place was recommended to us by a "regular." And she was right! We had the summer spring rolls and the spicy chicken (#54) and both dishes were delicious. Our server was very friendly and the food arrived quickly. The decor is clever and breaks up the space nicely. We will definitely become regulars.

The food here is so flavorful, there's quite a variety of dishes, and the servers are so kind. We get a new dish every time we go and have never been disappointed. It's always bustling, but there is rarely a wait.
