Tuk Tuk Chicken & Rice

This place opens pretty late and I was curious to try this place out. I ordered the khao mun gai (poached chicken) with white rice. It was so good with the kmg sauce. The soup was a bit salty but balancing it with the left over rice I had on my plate evened it out. I do want to try their yellow curry and penang curry on my next visit. I also look forward to getting the mango sticky rice!The staff was nice and the restaurant had a car theme to it. There's hella hot wheels and ripped magazines posted on the walls which was pretty cool.

I was doing my nails next door and wanted to grab some food from here after my nails were done..came in after and ordered a couple things..Service 5/5Drinks 5/5Chicken Pad Thai 2/5 Popcorn chicken 3/5Fried chicken skin 3/5 I wish I could give this place a higher rating..The french toast milk tea tastes exactly like the cinnamon toast crunch milk after eating all the cereal..What a wonderful blast from the past..reminds me of my childhood hood!!! Yummy!!! 5/5!!! I also got the lychee soda pop which is basically fizzy lychee soda..also 5/5!!! Very good and sweet!!!Let's move on to the pad thai..I really wanted to like the pad thai..it looked really good when I opened the box..but it lacked so much flavor. The portions were great..lots of noodles and chicken..but it was very bland. 2/5Their popcorn chicken laab style and fried chicken skin was pretty good when it was hot and fresh. When I was driving home and picking at the popcorn chicken and fried chicken skin it was delicious..but after leave it for 30 minutes..it lost flavor. I don't mind if it looses crunch because fried food looses crunch after it has been left out..but it lost flavor..These two items went from good to bland..Going to give these 2 items a 3/5.Still undecided if I want to give this place another try. The drinks were just so good..and the pad thai here has good reviews..maybe it was just an off day for the chief? Unsure..but if I do come back and have a better experience I will update this review.

Food here is fresh and has good flavor! We ordered Khao Man Gai, Fried Chicken Skin, Roti with Penang Curry, popcorn chicken, and Thai tea. All were hits for us. We ordered Togo since we had a bit of a drive home, but everything came burning hot and traveled well. Chicken skin and popcorn chicken didn't even make it home since we ate it along the way. The Thai tea wasn't too sweet, which we all know is a compliment when it comes to Asian food. Still had the tea flavor and wasn't washed away from too much milk. I would recommend this place and will be sure to come back to order again!

The food was pretty good for a snacky Thai food place. I don't know that it's quite four stars but it's not three either. I just remember that we had to sit outside because the smell of incense was really strong inside and I have a sensitive nose so it was really cold. The service was great and fast and friendly.

This is an amazing small shop that serves good quality Thai food. The food gives off a home-y feeling and the interior decor shows off what they are serving. I'd say this is more of a togo food place, but there is limited seating inside. One thing that's great about this place is they open late. Usually they close at 10PM but they close at midnight on Fridays and Saturdays.Khao Mun Gai: The chicken is tender and the flavor is amazing. The sauce that comes with this item goes super well with the lean chicken. All entrees come with a side of soup, which pairs so well with this dish.Yellow Curry: A good solid yellow curry. I do wish the curry was a tad bit more flavorful, but it does hit the spot. Portion is large and there is a small cucumber/onion side as well.

The food here is so underrated. I do wish the prices were a bit more affordable, but it's worth treating yourself every once in the wild.Though the steamed/poached chicken is good, the larb style popcorn chicken is SO good and flavorful. Get the chicken rice instead of regular white rice. The soup is usually hit-or-miss with regard to flavor, it tastes vaguely of just water with msg and maybe a little bit of vegetable flavor.The chicken wings with lemons pepper sauce are delicious!Will always drop by if in the area and craving the food.

I chose this place because my go-to Thai restaurants were closed, so I was hoping for a good alternative. While Tuk Tuk Chicken & Rice has some hits like the basil chicken and salt and pepper wings, the Pad Thai needs some work.The basil chicken is super tasty. The chicken is tender and cooked with fresh basil, bell peppers, and onions in a yummy sauce. The basil gives it a nice aroma and a bit of a spicy kick. It's a great dish that's both filling and delicious.The S & P Chicken Wings are a must-try! The salt and pepper seasoning is just right, giving the wings a crispy and flavorful coating. They're fried perfectly, so you get a nice crunch with every bite. Perfect for sharing or enjoying on your own.The Pad Thai with chicken was a bit of a letdown. It came with thin slices of breaded chicken, similar to tonkatsu, which was interesting but not what you'd expect in traditional Pad Thai. Plus, it was missing bean sprouts, green onions, peanuts, and that tangy tamarind flavor. To top it off, the noodles were burnt, which really took away from the dish.We've traveled to Thailand twice and have eaten traditional Thai cuisine since the 80's so we're no stranger to it.The decor is not your typical Thai restaurant style. One wall is covered with pictures and ads of JDM cars, and another wall is filled with Hot Wheels still in their packages. It's a unique and fun atmosphere that adds a bit of character to the place.Overall, Tuk Tuk Chicken & Rice has a cozy vibe and friendly staff, making it a decent spot for a casual meal, but there are definitely areas for improvement.

I was excited to try this place as it had positive reviews. Unfortunately my experience was sub par. We walked in and it was a small place. We waited a while as someone was cooking, there was nobody at the front counter. We thought it was ok because we were looking over the menu. A while later, one of the kids walked in and assisted us at the counter. I had a feeling that he didn't want to be there.After we ordered, we sat and looked around. The wall of hot wheels and pictures of cars was interesting. Not much states that it's a Thai restaurant. We ordered the Roti, green curry, and pad Thai. We were met with disappointment. The roti was super oily, the Thai tea lacked flavor, the green curry was ok. What really disappointed me was the pad Thai was not the best I had. There was too much sauce that overwhelmed the whole thing. It lacked peanuts to add to the texture. Overall: give it a try, maybe it was just a bad day

Always my favorite spot for to-go. But today they made me disappointed. I found three short hair in my order. I ignored the first one and two then this is the third one. I can't help but to leave a review here.

For you dining in this restaurant , I suggest you check when they charge you their sales tax.I just found out the following day when I looked at my receipt that I was overcharged on the sales tax.San Jose in Santa Clara should only be 9.375 %They're charging 10.6% sales tax !
