We were there recently to celebrate my son’s 16th birthday. The restaurant wasn’t busy at all, but with it being Thursday night in the summer and all the UF students gone, that could be why. The waitress was very friendly and service was very quick. We enjoyed our dishes, kids got pad Thai with chicken and beef, we got green curry with chicken and pad eggplant with beef. Everything was fresh and tasty. Crab Rangoon was melt-in-your-mouth delicious! The only thing that was a minus is they didn’t have any sushi, but we enjoyed what we ordered anyway. We would recommend this place.
FANTASTIC FOOD AND SERVICE!!! TRY THE TUP TIM THAI ROLLS!!!
I really loved drunken noodle
It's spicy but savory at the same time.
There's not many servers considering the size of the restaurant, so you might need to wait for a check(we waited 15mins..). There's no parking btw.
They sure don’t know customer service. Sometimes they don’t even come to you to take orders even though the restaurant is almost empty, even though its well within service hour, they would just ignore and make you leave. And it’s just a regular restaurant and not that fancy at all.
It happened to me once, at least they should let us know that the service is not available.
Honestly, I came here, from Miami, after my mom’s funeral. That’s how uk the food is good good, they have theses amazing soups, which lowkey reminded me of hers.
However, I was really disappointed and heartbroken when they kicked me out and told me to go eat out side, like who wants to eat something hot, while being hot?
And the tables dirty asf too.
At this point I’m honestly regretting coming here.
I am obsessed with Drunken Noodle and tried it all over the east coast. Their take on Drunken Noodles is in the top tier category. Paired with the fried Tofu I had an excellent eat there. Thank you
Food was delicious and the staff are polite and attentive. Will definitely come again

Scammed with portion size. 50% less portion size than what other standard Thai places offer. Dissappointed.
Do not order the BOGO deal on Uber eats. It looks like they just split the full version into two small containers and call it two meals. Also the chicken was dry. Food wasn't worth the money. Will not order here again.

These peasants think they are so smart Splitting the regular portion into 2 containers and calling it a BOGO deal. Absolutely disgraceful. Is it so hard for you to make a honest living and not scam people ordering online with fake deals? SHAMELESS.

I've been ordering from Tup Tim for what's got to be going on 4 years. I feel like it was during COVID that I started. So I've been a pretty regular customer, however I started to notice some things.
Up front, I should note these are based on delivery orders and how the food is prepared before the driver picks the orders up.
One of the first things I began noticing was how inconsistent the prep was for the food. Sometimes it would be under seasoned, verging on almost no seasoning. Other times the flavor would be there but the meal would be drenched in oil. The times it's just right, it's as good as any Thai place you're bound to find. But consistency is the key to meal service and Tup Tim has suffered from this greatly over the last couple years.
Most recently, I've started noticing portion discrepancies. When my former roommate and I first began ordering Tup Tim we felt that the portions were great for the price. We felt they could charge a little more an get away with it. And so they have. I'd happily continue to pay $15 for those portions (especially with inflation being what it is) but they're not consistent with portions either. I noticed that sometimes I'd get just a small container with my order and others a large styrofoam box while paying the same price for both. Now I've pinned down a trend that when they do BOGO deals with Uber, for example, that they give two smaller containers but if I order a portion I get a large styrofoam container. So if I do BOGO, I'm getting the same single portion they offer but it's just divided into two containers. *THAT* is not fair. You pay a service fee for delivery based on how many pieces there are in the order and as such BOGO ends up costing more than the single serving because you're paying for the delivery of more pieces.
So, to the owners, you've got great recipes. You truly do. However, the kitchen staff needs to work to insure that each order is the same when it leaves the kitchen as much as they can. Things happen, but things can't happen this often. If you're offering a deal, honor that deal with integrity and don't just do something like splitting a regular single portion into two.
You had a great foundation, now meet that standard you set.

I ordered from this restaurant on Uber eats while they were having a bogo deal on their pad Thai. I thought it was a joke when I got my food and saw the portion size. I have never eaten at this restaurant so I’m not sure if this is a normal portion size or if they split a regular size portion into two and called it a BOGO deal. I will never order from here again with how expensive the pad Thai was. I’m giving two stars because the pad Thai tasted good but not worth it for the price.

soooo i really wanted pho so i walked to bagels and noodles but they were closed so i came here instead and they did have pho on the menu :) the pho itself was good, definitely hit the spot and it was presented beautifully (i asked for everything on the side, they were out of beansprouts so gave me green beans instead which was weird but i ate and enjoyed it anyway lol) my server was very kind and the inside was beautiful, i will surely come back and try the rest of the menu

Best pad Thai I have had in Northern FL so far. Service is excellent! Our server, Seth went above and beyond with helping my husband who has a broken ankle! He was amazing. Thank you for taking such good care of us you are much appreciated.
