Wonderful and tasty Thai food at a reasonable price. Friendly service from start to finish. We stayed in the Volcano area for two nights and had dinners from Tuk Tuk Thai Food both nights. We had the Pad Thai, Summer Rolls, Green Curry and Eggplant Stir Fry. All dishes were delicious, flavorful, hot, fresh and generous. Recommend ordering ahead before picking up. Enjoy!

Good food but young smug jerk running the register. The spring rolls where okay but you only get 2 cut up $10.00 Won't be back. Aloha. Pau

Noon on a busy Thursday in the park & thankfully this pace was actually open & doing business unlike Aunty Pon's & the other Thai spot in this area. Eagle's rest is the other only place that for sure was open but we had it for breakfast so opted to try out the Thai truck & carry it to our Airbnb a mile or so away. It was as busy a truck can be & was worth it. The pad Thai & curry were very good & a welcome sight after extended time hiking in the park.

I normally don't write reviews, but I have to say this has to be one of the best, if not THE BEST, Thai food I have ever had. I ordered the panang with shrimp and my cousin ordered the papaya salad and the pad see ewe. All of it was amazing and so flavorful. The guy who helped us was friendly, welcoming, and offered great recommendations. The only negative thing I can say is that I'm sad knowing that I won't get anything like this on the mainland. I highly recommend.

We were such fans of Tuk Tuk that we picked up dinner from the food truck two days in a row. And they are cilantro-free which is a bonus in my cookbook. The guy taking orders was cool. He was also quite knowledgeable about the menu and told us what was out or about to run out. Some notable dishes include the summer rolls (starting at $10), green papaya salad ($10), pad Thai ($15 with chicken), and pineapple curry ($15 with chicken). Fantastic. Try stopping by Tuk Tuk after leaving Volcanoes National Park but before they close at 6 PM!

Delicious thai option near Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Perfect for after a long day of hiking and exploring the park. Pad thai was our favorite, stir fry was also very good! Very excellent service is as well.

Service was friendly but food was just ok. There aren't many options available in the areas surrounding the Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park in regards to food so we tried our best to find something decent as compared to what is offered inside the park. This food truck is about 15 minutes away from the national park so we opted for it after a 2 hour long strenuous hike. Limited parking available next to the truck on the gravel area on the side of the road. We ate in the car after we got our food but some people used their beach chairs and just sat on the gravel area to eat. The guy taking the order was friendly and service was fast. Order to pick up time was less than 15 minutes. We got the pad see ew noodles with chicken, Thai ice tea (with coconut milk), and summer rolls with shrimp. The pad see ew barely had any noodles and it was way too salty. We had to drink 2 bottles of water afterwards likely because of the high sodium content in the sauce. The Thai ice tea was ok but I tasted more of the coconut milk than the tea itself. The summer rolls were a good size and very refreshing. We liked the peanut sauce over the sweet chili sauce. Overall, it's a decent food truck given the limited dining options. Price was reasonable compared to all the other meals we've had during our time on the big island.

This place is a lifesaver after a long day of hiking at the Park. I got the stir fry, which was really good (4.5 star) My wife got the Pad Thai (3.5 star)--which wasn't as good tbh. Definitely stick with the stir fry, I got mine spicy. The Thai coffee they have is also really good, but beware: it is super sweet. The service was as good as you can expect from a good truck--and it was nice to take a break to eat and go back to hiking!

Everything tasted good, but the portion size of spring rolls was disappointing. 9 little pieces for $10?
