Restaurant Nok Nok

This Thai restaurant came highly recommended, so we decided to give it a try. With all the compliments we had heard, our expectations were pretty high. The starters were very good! The duck spring rolls and papaya salad were excellent and right amount of spiciness. Unfortunately, the satay chicken skewers were disappointing. They tasted more like steamed or oven-baked chicken rather than grilled, which made the texture a bit off and dry. For the main dishes, we ordered the chef’s special lamb massaman curry and fried fish and sadly, both fell short. The curry was overly sweet and didn’t taste like a traditional Thai curry at all. The fried fish reminded us of sweet and sour chicken, just with fish. The dishes were also lukewarm... Overall, the starters were nice, but the main dishes fell short. Considering the prices, the quality was underwhelming. Not my cup of tea, unfortunately.

The restaurant is beautiful. I liked the ambiance here, appreciated the service, and the quality of the food. Everything was delicious, and my favorite was the Tom Yum soup. If you prefer your Pad Thai less sweet, tell the staff (because most Pad Thai I've eaten at other places is sweet, so I always tell the staff beforehand to be sure😀). The drinks were also very good.

Really disappointing. After seeing the reviews and the awards, I expected an authentic Thai place. We got fried rice and pad thai, two classics. The rice was dry and tasted bland. But the pad thai was probably the worst I ever eaten. It was unexpectedly very sweet, like if they used a sweet&sour sauce or ketchup. Plus it has raw red onions (first time I saw them in such dish). The chicken looks like it was previously fried before been cooked in the wok and it was dry and chewy. The tofu cubes were the same. The whole thing tasted like some previous day reheated leftovers. Also they strangely didn't bring chopsticks nor they asked if we wanted them. The service was at least nice and the price was ok (for Tallinn standards), which saved the place a bit. But still if you are looking for real Thai food, there are better places in town.

Very disappointing experience. As a Thai national I was extremely displeased with this restaurant. Firstly, if you are going to charge €20 for prawn fried rice there should be more than 4 prawns. That is absurd given how little it costs to make the dish otherwise. With the mango sticky rice, the portions were extremely off, and there was way more rice than mango. For €12, I would expect more than a quarter of a mango. Also, charging money for tap water is unreal. Genuinely embarrassing for a restaurant that claims to be Michelin worthy. Either sell a bottle or make tap free. On top of the pricing to serving misbalance, the taste of the food overall was just okay. Compared to the food in Thailand it was nowhere near satisfactory, but for Europe I thought it was middle-of-the-line. I highly recommend either increasing your portion sizes or lowering your prices if you want people to come back. Also the Thai rice needed more fish sauce and I would mix the coconut sauce into the sticky rice or the rice because the rice is too dry when you just pour it on top. It might help to have Thai chefs.

Excellent meal! Showed up with no reservation on a Tues night and thry were able to accomodate. We tried the drunken noodles amd the cashew chicken amd both were exceptional and generously portioned. The mango sticky rice was a perfect finish to the meal! Would definitely eat here again. any time.

Absolutely amazing food. Was there on a monday and the service was perfect, helped us with everything we needed. We got the fried mushrooms as a starter and the lamb curry and the sweet whole fish as mains and non of it disappointed. Portions were too big for us so we were able to take a box home afterwards with some free extra rice. It's a little on the expensive side but worth it if you love real Thai food

Went here after traveling around Europe and was craving some spicy Thai food (I’m a big fan!) — and this restaurant absolutely delivered! I ended up ordering quite a lot, but everything was so delicious that I finished it all. The place is cozy, beautifully decorated, and the flavors are spot on. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves Thai cuisine!

Quite possibly THE best Thai food I’ve eaten! Wow! We broke our rule of only dining at the same restaurant once while on holidays. We ate here lunch one day and then, two days, later ate lunch there again. We shared a vegan version of the papaya salad on both days, which was so incredible and maybe the hottest thing I’ve ever eaten! Clean high quality fresh ingredients. For my main, I had a vegan Pad Thai one day and the second visit, I had the fried aubergine and rice. Wow. Both were amazing. The staff were so friendly - the best we experienced in Tallinn. We were properly taken care of. The decor is fresh, colourful, modern and sophisticated. Were used to eating at really nice restaurants and this holds up in every way. 5/5, no hesitation!
