The time displayed is not correct. I went with my family at 7.45 only to be told , " we are closing the kitchen early because it is not busy " so please state that on your opening and closing time . Will be open if busy or close at 7.45 . Not sure how the owner runs the restaurant or needs to replace and get good staff who are willing to work the hours. Never heard a restaurant closing early because it's not busy . Especially around 7.45 . Peak time for all restaurants

Erm, ok, I was told the chef is Thai. I honestly doubt that ( although I could be wrong ) because the food didn't taste at all authentic, but here goes with my review on the food. The Tom Yum soup was good and tasty. I believe this was freshly made paste and not the Mai Ploy stuff, well done on that. However, the prawns were from frozen and shelled, which made them quite hard when cooked. They definitely weren't fresh. Fresh prawns are used and cooked for a few seconds making them delicately soft. These frozen prawns spoiled the dish. The Pandang was ok but not at all spicy and there was way too much coconut cream in the sauce. The jasmine rice was dry and almost crunchy in some parts. The papaya salad was very poor. It wasn't what I'm used to. It wasn't sweet, salty but was a bit too sour. Way too much vinegar was used and the balance was all wrong. Palm sugar is used in this dish. It wasn't there. Or if it was, there wasn't enough. And finally, the cost of this food is way too high. Not value for money as the taste was all wrong. One serious critism. The table we had was sticky. It hadn't been wiped properly. The background music isn't loud enough, so you're sat listening to other people talk.

I feel I’ve waited long enough to get a resolution to my problem so have no alternative than to let others know of my experience .I recently ordered a take away which could only be described as awful . The order was placed through uber eats and it appears that they aren’t willing to refund and tuk tuk are taking no responsibility . We ordered duck rolls ,crispy beef and pad Thai resulting in£35.00 for a take away .At the time this wasn’t a problem as I had been to the restaurant many times before and knew the quality of the food to be amazing . The food arrived within the time uber stated but when opened was un edible .The duck rolls were missing the duck and were like soggy sticks of filo ,the crispy beef was horrid coming with a spoonful of limp Chinese leaf and the pad Thai would have been great for making sand castles . I have spent a month trying to get some sort of refund but after numerous texts with Andre, which resulted in him blocking my number I’m still a very unhappy customer.We had numerous conversations by text and as I told him I had worked in this industry myself for over 20 years and would of thought even a token gesture would of been good for customer relations. I will leave you with one of his quotes . For best experience always dine in ! Which I now know means if you want quality don’t get a take away from here . Very unsatisfied customer

The food is delicious but it's very rushed. 90 minutes per table, but you spend the first 20 minutes reviewing the menu and waiting to order. No chance for dessert or a second round of drinks, and the bill is placed on your table at minute 80!! This made us feel unwelcomed and not valued. Such a shame because the food was fab, and we would love to return, but the experience is spoiled by being rushed, especially when you are slow eaters.

Dear Management Team I am writing to express my disappointment with our experience at TuTuk on 14th February. I made a reservation for two at 5:00 PM and was informed in advance that our table would have a maximum time allocation of 1 hour and 30 minutes, which we fully understood. Unfortunately, due to traffic and Uber delays, we arrived 10 minutes late. Upon arrival, we were informed that our remaining time at the table was 1 hour and 20 minutes, which we accepted. We promptly reviewed the menu and placed our order without delay. Throughout our meal, we noticed that other tables were being reminded of the standard 1 hour and 30-minute allocation. We enjoyed our starter and main course; however, when the waitress collected our plates, my wife mentioned that she was unsure whether her sea bass was fully cooked or if it had a fatty portion. I also commented that while my meal was tasty, the chicken was firmer than expected. We hoped this feedback would be passed on to the kitchen. After our mains were cleared, we were given a dessert menu. However, before we could place our dessert order, another staff member arrived to remind us that we had only 10 minutes remaining. My wife politely responded that we understood the time limit but were still waiting for someone to take our order. An apology was offered by another member of the team who advised that we have 12 minutes, but no apology was given by the previous server. Instead, we were given a token offer of a ‘lychee shot,’ which we declined. We chose not to raise a complaint at the time, as the overall pressure we felt—especially from the last host—had already overshadowed what was meant to be a romantic Valentine’s meal. Additionally, we did not want to disrupt the experience of other diners. However, we couldn’t help but feel singled out, as the couple seated behind us did not appear to receive the same level of pressure. Regrettably, this experience has left us uncertain about returning to your restaurant in the future. We hope you take this feedback into account to ensure all guests feel equally valued and that service remains consistent and considerate.

Good was great and it’s such a cute venue. The food is pricey for Thai food even tho it’s delicious it took quite a while to come out and some items were missing and an extra roti appeared out of nowhere, ordering was a bit chaotic but we were a table of 8 so it’s understandable. But again, absolutely delicious and staff were super nice about bringing in balloons and cake for my bday and only charged £1.50 for us to bring our own cake which is a really great price.

This small but inviting Thai restaurant is a gem for takeaway! I decided to try a few dishes: the salt and pepper squid, duck spring rolls, and crispy breaded prawns. Each dish was fantastic, but the squid was the star of the show – tender, perfectly seasoned, and not at all rubbery. The spring rolls were crispy and packed with flavorful duck, and the prawns were deliciously crunchy. The portions were ample, and the food arrived hot and fast. Will definitely come back for more!

I can see that this place has good reviews, but honestly, I do not know why. The beef was chewy and disgusting. The chicken had lots of fat on it. The only thing worthwhile was the vegetables.

Visited and ordered the Wing Zap and Gai Med Mamuang. Wing Zap tasted good, however the chicken in the gai med mamuang was very dry. Also the ingredients are very different from what I normally eat in Thailand. 3 cashew nuts on the whole plate and normally not served with carrots and the sauce was very minimum and didn’t taste very good.

Got to try the masaman beef, wing zapp, tom yum prawns and crab fried rice. I don’t think I’ve had such amazing Thai food before. The food had the perfect balance of flavours and heat. The cocktail menu was very well curated, we got to try a few and they were all refreshing and paired brilliantly with the food. For dessert we had the banana cream pie and my mind was blown! I went back the next day just to get another slice of it! It’s rich yet light, not too sweet just perfect! I know I definitely will visit Cardiff again specially to go eat at Tuk Tuk!

I collected a take away order, we asked for extra prawns with the Pad Thai but didn’t get any(even though we paid for them) the chicken in the pad Thai was dry and over cooked. The Curry and coconut rice was very nice. The chicken thighs in batter starter was mostly batter and not much chicken inside so just dry and crispy. Overall a very expensive below average meal.

Whilst in Cardiff this place was mentioned to me to try as it has had some good reviews. The place is a romantic paradise. The interior is cosy and the service was excellent. The lady taking orders was polite and so accommodating. We hadn't booked but they managed to squeeze us in so booking is recommended. The menu caters for everyone, from vegans to meat eaters and has plenty of choice. Now for the food, it was top notch, some of the best Thai food I've ever tasted in the UK and was plenty for the three of us. I had the Thai green curry. It was delicious and had plenty of prawns. The rosti was great and the sticky rice was cooked to perfection. Finally I would strongly recommend a visit.

Grace who served us was really friendly and helpful even if the statement to my London colleague that the food was better than anything in London was ambitious. (then trying the food the statement had a well founded base and we appreciated the confidence). Hopefully you will now receive hordes of London visitors to compare to their local quisine.

Firstly, the food here is VERY tasty and I cant recommend it enough. Honestly top marks to the chef. I would definitely order from here again (and again) - though I will likely have it delivered rather than dine-in. Here's why: The dining experience was clumsy and awkward at best. We booked our table in advance and arrived at the restaurant 5 minutes early. We were seated right away which was great, though it was 20 minutes until anyone came to our table and offered us drinks....that was disappointing. The restaurant was only half-full too, so not especially busy. While we sat waiting to be served I got an e-mail from the restaurant saying that our booking had been moved, updating the time to show my reservation was now 5 minutes earlier, as we had arrived 5 minutes before our original reservation time. Strange and pointless I thought, but nothing more. Then I realised why, when one of the staff in a loud voice across the restaurant said to a group of women behind us "You have 10 minutes left guys." It seems you only have 90 minutes allocated to you when you dine-in at this restaurant, and they are very rigid on that rule ! Extraordinary. The women who had '10 minutes left' still had food and drinks on their table.....I guess a mad dash of shovelling it all down within 10 mins ensued ! The same waiter made several of these comments to the diners while we were there. It seemed quite militant in its delivery, and we wee nervous the with the slow service we were going to run out of time too! Given how it took 20 minutes for them to even take our drinks order, 90 minutes doesn't seem long at all. Anyway, we ordered and ate. It was delicious. I had the Nuer tod kra tium to start and a Thai green curry with jasmine rice for main. My partner had the same main and por pia ped to start. It was ALL entirely delicious and we wolfed it down with great joy. THEN the waiter who was barking times at diners throughout the night, comes over to collect our empty plates. In what I can only describe as an uncomfortable attempt at humour, he starts cracking unfunny and awkward jokes about me and my partner. In particular how we looked and our 'image.' My partner and I, laughed politely hoping he would move on, but he kept going and going.... The highlights were: likening my partner to Justin Beiber and calling his hair colour 'a mistaken and regrettable dye choice." Stating that I had obviously come tonight in a thunder storm (a comment on my hair too...). And several personal comments about my tattoos. The waiter failed to register how uncomfortable we both were at his fumbling attempt at humour, all while a number of other customers looked on awkwardly.... Following his little outburst, he walked off and we didn't see him again. Yeh we paid and left straight after this.....Ive given three stars. This is for the food. The staff, well, I would have given five stars, but the amateur comedian/waiter with the inappropriate comments kind of ruined the experience.

This place is LOVELY!! The service was brilliant and the lady taking our order was informative and gave the best recommendations for the dishes and drinks to complement the food. The atmosphere was genuinely pleasant. The style and aesthetic of the restaurant was beautiful. I really recommend. All together we paid just over £50 for the food and drinks. Worth it 💯

The staff were very friendly and polite. The place itself was clean and cosy, not too loud. The food we ordered were excellent especially their prawn crackers and Pad Thai noodles. I also like the small condiments available on the table (chilie flakes and i think fish sauce). Overall the price of our meal was all worth it

Tuk Tuk is one of my favourite restaurants in Cardiff. Delicious Thai food at an amazing price, beautiful presentation, and smashing service. Our server Grace was very accommodating and gave us great recommendations on the drinks and food. I will definitely be visiting again soon!

The food were delicious, the taste is authentic, exactly just like food in Thailand. My husband just couldn't stop saying "oh My God this is lovely" 🤣 The waiters were very nice and accommodating.

We had a great night! The food was amazing, the drinks - the mocktail tasted absolutely lush! And the young guy who was serving us went above and beyond to please our every whim! Thank you. We will be coming back.

Visited yesterday having seen the reviews, the food is THE BEST Thai food I have ever tasted, tried the beef and prawns to start and the masaman curry for main, all were absolutely amazing. Would highly recommend if your visiting Cardiff, it's a little out of the way from the centre (7 mins in an Uber) but everyone in our group agreed it was well worth the trip. Also the roti were next level! Cocktails were also very good! Staff were very welcoming and friendly, if these guys were in the centre their business would be booming, very memorable food.

Absolutely wonderful. The food at Tuk Tuk was a joy, the service was impeccable, the decor and ambience are perfect. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Arrive hungry and do not miss the banana spring rolls if you have room for dessert. Drinks wise, the peach tropical mojito (which you can also get as a mocktail) is gorgeous.

Great customer service, cool decor inside. Their biscoff bubble tea is absolutely super! I don’t usually enjoy bubble tea (though always have one taste) but this one was incredible and I just had to get one for myself when I sampled my friends. Also LOVE that you can make your bubble tea boozy. Such a great concept. I’ll be back again for a bubble tea cocktail soon

El servicio era rápido, la comida era buena y el precio era justo. La única desventaja fue que la salsa expiró hace más de 2 meses.

When we entered the store, the waitress was playing on the computer and watching a video without saying a word to us. At the same time, a woman came out of the kitchen with a bowl of food. The two women were talking about their bowl of food without asking me what I wanted to eat. I asked them myself if I wanted to place an order at the counter? They just asked me what I wanted. My wonton noodles and the soup were all sticky, and the meat of the braised pork rice was very tough. We didn’t finish the food. Before we left, we went to the toilet. When we passed by the kitchen, we saw a middle-aged man handling food in the kitchen with a cigarette in his mouth😨

We were served by Lauryn, she was so lovely and welcoming. Very good customer service!! However, I wasn't keen on the food. Our bill came to around £80.00 and all I can say is I would've much preferred to go to an authentic Thai restaurant as the food I had wasn't worth the cost. The interior decor is beautiful, I'd see this restaurant as more of a bar vibe than restaurant as food was disappointing. A waste of money.

Went with colleagues from work. Vegan choices of food but most were spicy and I can't have spicy food for health reasons. What I had was nice though. Lovely cocktails, some were cheaper when you buy 2
