Restaurant Tuk Tuk

Wowww the best Thai food in Montreal, I’ve been to so many places and this is the best one. It’s no fancy but sooo cozy. We took the mango salad, Amok, pad Thai and peanut butter chicken! Delicious

Good Thai Cuisine Restaurant. We had lunch here and had a very nice experience. We ordered fresh tuk tuk rolls, tuk tuk wings as starter and both tasted good and authentic. Tuk tuk roll made with thin rice paper and contains sprouts, herbs and flavoured sauce etc. Chicken wings are very crispy and accompanied with good sweet sauce. For the main course, we had Pad Thai , Red curry with rice. Shrimp meat used in both dishes is very fresh. Pad Thai taste is really good and authentic. They added tamarind sauce, rice noodles etc. Red curry- rice accompanied with flavourful spicy gravy. Taste is awesome. Overall, a very nice restaurant with clean and friendly service. Price is quite expensive compared to the portion of food.

THE FOOD IS DELICIOUS! This cute little place on the cote des neiges hill is tucked into a little semi-basement. It has enough space to seat 30 people comfortably. I didn’t feel claustrophobic inside and the bathrooms are very clean. We were well greeted at the door, seated with water in seconds. The timing between each meal was superb and efficient. Each meal was at the right temperature and very delicious. I finished the soup!!! The broth was so delicious that I finished the soup. That was a first for me. The waiter had a great recommendation for my friend and she was also very happy with her dish. As you can see from the photos, each dish is prepared with a lot of care and thought. It was a refreshing experience. The price is reasonable also. I will definitely be back soon!

Best fish amok I’ve had outside of Cambodia. What a treat it is to be able to eat Cambodian food this good in the heart of Montreal! Amazing service, amazing food, amazing experience. Can’t wait to go back and try more menu items.

I’ve ordered twice from there and the food was good both times. Could use fresh bean sprouts and more veggies or else it tastes a little dry.

This was the first time eating at this place. We made a reservation because it is a very small place. Only had 7 tables available. We started with a Fresh Tuk Tuk Roll with Chicken and Shrimp with peanut sauce and a Nam Ya soup. Both were really good but the soup could have been hotter. Then we had one order of Shrimp Pad Thai and a Cha Chef Lyne. Both were good except I found that the Pad Thai noodles were a bit mushy. Both said spicy but they were not. According to the waiter they can make it spicier if we'd like. We know know for next time. Service was excellent. The one waiter was really nice and helpful in helping us decide what to order.

Pleasant dining experience in this unassuming Côté des neiges spot. The beef soup was particularly memorable, with a delicate and nuanced broth - the. broth is advertised an an 8hr cooking process. Very pleasant service too.

A cute spot for tasty Cambodian/Thai cuisine. It’s very clean and the service is nice and attentive. The food though! Is super flavourful. I tried the Chicken Amok curry and Sesame Che chicken with some calamari to start. The calamari was crisp on the outside and the actual squid was wonderfully tender. I highly recommend the Amok curry because it has very deep flavours.

A great place to drop to get some authentic cambo food. We ordered wings and soup for appy and chicken curry, beef pad see ew. Portions are not too big but great taste!!! A good family restaurant and very good quality food. We will stop by again in Montreal again.

This was our first meal after arriving in Montréal from California and it was the best first meal experience! The interior is so cute and quaint. Our server was so sweet and helpful with suggestions. We ordered pad see ew, egg rolls, spring rolls, a curry fish dish (i think it was the Amok dish?), and finished with the coconut tapioca dessert. EVERYTHING was so delicious, especially the curry fish plate!!! So glad we decided to stop by and will definitely be back the next time we are in Montréal!

Family-owned; very friendly staff; great food; great service; first time visiting Montreal and Canada in general and was glad to stop by this place.

I ordered a Pad Thai and a Wonton soup after reading those good reviews. What a disappointment. It's the worst Pad Thai I ever tried, couldn't eat it. It was only regular onions and carrots as if that is part of a Pad Thai. It had bean sprouts and some meat at least, but no flavour, no shallots, no peanuts, no egg. Overcooked. Just terrible

Outstanding thai and Cambodian...worth the detour, but don't be put off by the small room. Food and service (and pricing) is outstanding.

Tucked away under a run-of-the-mill hair salon on Cote-des-Neiges road, Tuk Tuk is an unpretentious BYOB restaurant where you can tuck into hearty Thai & Cambodian grub. By a fluke, in the depths of winter, this restaurant's signage caught my eye. I specifically took notice of the logo: a cute three-weeled taxi, also known as a "tuk tuk" in Asia, likely the source of inspiration for the restaurant's name. This auto-rickshaw epitomizes Thailand, Cambodia, and other southern Asian nations: the hustle and bustle of urban life, the chaos of traffic, the aroma of curry, the ubiquity of cheap massages, etc. The sensual imagery evoked by this mere emblem was a compelling reason for me to give this place a shot. Whilst Tuk Tuk was desolate when I entered, I was received with pomp and circumstance. The sole waiter rolled out the red carpet for me, and ushered me to an intimate table. I sank into a snug chair, and leaned forward to peruse the structured menu. Boy was I spoiled for choice: they had everything, from soup to nuts! Although variety is indeed the spice of life, I opted for green curry beef. In two shakes of a lamb's tail, my dish was severed with good manners. I was all smiles as I gobbled down my supper. The beef was tender and full of flavour. The medley of vegetables produced a tang that was out of this world. Before you can say Jack Robinson, I was blissfully sated. All things considered, this informal setting is ideal for an indolent night with your consort when you don't feel like cooking. The prices are easy on the pocket, and the decor is easy on the eyes. Most importantly, the food is succulent and will leave you lost for words.

One of very few cambodian restaurants in town. There may be others but in most you have one or two cambodian dishes and that's pretty much it. A lot of the dishes here are similar to thai dishes. The one pearl I found here is the mango salad. It is amazing. The mango is julienned and served with shrimp in a vinegary salad dressing, it is very light and fresh. there are bits of fried garlic as garnish and that really adds some nice flavor. It is a perfect dish. I've had other dishes her, but this is the only one I remember. They also have larb here which is a minced meat salad, although larb is also traditional in Laos and thai cuisine so don't know if this version is strictly cambodian style or not. I definitely recommend this place, it's not pricey and interesting if you are looking to find something new you haven't had before.

I may be biased bc my family runs this place and this is where comfort food lives! C'est bien goût

We were visiting from the states and this was the best restaurant experience I have ever had in Montreal. The food was absolutely fantastic and the service PERFECT. Highly recommend this wonderful place.

Seriously good! It actually took a lot for me to say yes to going here. This superb spot was recommended to me by a friend. All they said was that it was a small Thai spot located in cote de neige. Not the closest spot to my home and I really didn't want to run the risk of getting bad Thai food... But I went and I was amazingly surprised. Tuk Tuk is a small spot seating about 32. Nothing about it visually really stands out and there are few indicators as to what the meals will be other than the menus. Our server was super nice and attentive and happy to answer our questions.... Anyways about the food. The menu has a number of Cambodian dishes and I think these are where the restaurant shines. The Ali's du Tuk Tuk was a great way to start. Fresh citrus, tender... Tennnnder chicken and yummy spicy peppers opened us up to what was coming next. The talapia amok was so flavourful and cooked to perfection. The blades lemongrass in this dish brought it to another level. The fresh springrolls ...were actually fresh. Celery in soup is not my thing but this Tom yum killllled it!the pad Thai was also really delicious but we found ourselves asking for extra fish sauce. Lastly borbor tnaot is my new favourite dessert. If you like fresh coconut cream, soft tapioca and a perfectly sweetens pudding I would recommend. I would check it out! One downside was that not everything on the menus was available.

Came with 4 other people for lunch around 11am. When we got there, it was empty, but as we ate, the place became packed! The service was great! The waiter was very prompt and explained the menu items to us quite clearly. We all ordered from the lunch menu and it came to about 14$ after tax. I was full, but I wasn't bursting! We were all able to finish our plates without trouble. It was the perfect quantity! I got the red curry item on the lunch menu. It came with lots of veggies and some rice. Personally, I could've used a bit more rice, but again, I was satisfied. All in all, good price for good food. I would definitely come back!

I came to Tuk Tuk with my friends after Hearing them say how delicious their pad thai was! I've always loved pad thai so since day one hearing them say that, I knew I have to come to Tuk Tuk and try their pad thai! We came for dinner (didn't make reservation but we got seated right after we arrived). It took us a little bit of time before deciding what we wanted (they have a big variety of Thai and Cambodian dishes on their menu). The waiter was extremely friendly and answered my friend's question patiently. We finally decided to share all the dishes and ordered the fried calamari as appetizer, the tofu pad thai, the beef pad si'eve and the chicken cha chou em. Their fried calamari didn't look or taste like what I've expected. I thought it would be the greek style calamari... But then I remember we were in a Thai and Cambodian restaurant! Their fried calamari tasted more "Chinese" because of the salt and pepper (you can find a lot of salt and pepper dishes in Chinese cuisine). The dish wasn't bad at all but it wasn't the kind of fried calamari I wanted to eat haha! The tofu pad thai was pretty good (I ordered it non-spicy), the portion was big enough to be split. Their so-called tofu was more like dried bean curd cake/dried tofu (豆乾), which I liked a lot. The dried tofu was stir-fried first, which made it tastier. I prefer this texture since it is harder and chewier than the soft and easy-to-break tofu texture. I would enjoyed this dish more if they have given more lemon, they only gave me one slice of lemon and it wasn't enough to bring the whole pad thai flavour to the max... The beef pad si'eve, which was pad sew (thick rice noodle stir-fried in soy sauce) tasted good but very "Chinese". This flavour was something you could easier get at any Asian restaurants. There wasn't any Thai or Cambodian touch to it... The chicken cha chou em was like a general tao but not quite it. Besides the sweet and sour sauce, there was a South-East asian taste because of the coconut milk and Thai basil. My friends didn't quite like it because there were too much vegetables they didn't like (celery, peppers, etc.) However, I enjoyed the vegetables because they were really fresh and crunchy, especially the celery! The only remark I have was, the rice they gave was definitely not enough for the amount of sauce there! Tuk Tuk is a bring your own wine restaurant and it gets busier at night (around 7-8 pm). It is a small restaurant so the seats fill up quickly. I recommend making reservations! The restaurant gets very very noisy/loud as well (it wouldn't be suitable for a romantic dinner or a date since you can hardly hear what the person seating in front of you is saying..)

This place is a 3.5 stars but Yelp has no halfsies. Overall I was really happy with my experience. The place was clean and with nice simple decor. The staff, one guy only, was very good. Bilingual and fast even though he was alone to serve a whole restaurant. The meal was good, the green curry was good but the best part was by far their EXCELLENT VERSION OF FRIED RICE. THIS IS HOW FRIED RICE SHOULD BE, light and fluffy without being fried or over cooked. I will go back and try more because if they make any other dish as good as the fried rice I would make this a true 4 star rating. Enjoy.

This cute little restaurant is tucked away in a quiet corner of CDN - a blink-and-you'll-miss-it sort of location. However, this is def a go-to place if you're in the area. The conventional flavors of SE-Asian cuisine that us, non-SE-Asians are used to (from other restaurants) are all there but with some added kicks of flavor. We ordered the beef salad which was an interesting dish to say the least. The beef strips were flavorful and succulent but as a salad, it didn't really fit that name-tag. We also ordered the 'chicken and shrimp fried rice' which was very delicious. The best fried rice I've had in Montreal till now. The rice they use here is smaller and lighter so the flavors in the fried rice come through stronger. We also ordered the Amok (a chicken curry dish) but I was more impressed with the fried rice because I was expecting more heat and flavor in the Amok. Hence because two out of the three dishes didn't impress me too much, I'll give this place three stars for now but I'll go back and try more dishes there. The restaurant was a refreshing find and even the Ikea catalog-esque decor was charming. It was simple and served the purpose yet it was elegant. I loved the jazz music backdrop and the staff were friendly.

I'm no expert in Thai food. I've never been to Thailand (but it's on my bucket list). Sure I've seen Anthony Bourdain's No reservations - Thailand and I enjoy North American aromatic-fragrant- spicy Thai food. However I'm only an amateur. So when checking out Tuk Tuk's reviews I was thoroughly intrigued. I was happy to see it was advertised as Cambodian-Thai. The owners are Cambodian and cook Thai food in their own special twist. I went ahead and ordered four dishes plus a Thai ice tea. The Thai iced tea was very good and similar in taste to many other places however much stronger and sweeter. I went and asked the guy working the counter if he could put some more ice in it to mellow out the strong flavour a bit. He did and it was good to go! Here's a run down of the dishes ordered for takeout: 1) Chicken Pad Thai - did not taste anywhere near Pad Thai I know and have experienced. The ones I prefer are in a sweet tamarind base sauce that are tangy/spicy as well. Flavour was okay a bit bland and not so much flavour with smaller pieces of chicken. Not exactly as we prefer. 2.75/5 2) Beef Pad Sew- From what I have experienced Pad Sew is typically in a soy sauce base. This pad sew was more like stir fry. It wasn't horrible but I would not consider the flavour and taste as memorable. 3/5 3) Cha Kneiy Chicken (Ginger Stir Fry)- similar to other Ginger based stir fry's I've had at other Cambodian restaurants. Both my wife and I found very bland. 2/5 4) Chicken Amok- creamy curry in coconut milk. - this was the best dish out of all of the ones ordered. Very fragrant creamy and lots of flavour. 5/5 I appreciate that these people do try to serve Thai food but For me it's slightly above average. If I return I'd look to enjoy some more traditional Cambodian dishes. This I'm certain they would excel at. I've still yet to find a Thai place better than my go to Bangkok Thai. The search continues.

A truly awesome Thai restaurant is Montreal is really hard to come by, so I was really keen on giving Tuk Tuk a try. Came here on a Saturday evening around 6.30 and was seated right away. The place was rather chic, cosy and clean. White table cloths without an air of pretentiousness. We were two and ordered the chili thai basil chicken with rice and fish Amok with rice. We got the amok because the waiter told us it was very popular and a lot of Yelpers also said good things about it. I chose the chili thai chicken basil because it's one of my favorite thai dishes so I have a pretty good idea of what it should taste like. The service was quite quick and we got our food not long after ordering. The first thing I noticed was the heap of vegetables on my plate with a tiny ball of rice in the corner. The amount of vegetables was rather overwhelming, to be honest, and I was scared to find out how much (or little) chicken/fish was hiding beneath them. My fear was right for the chili thai basil dish. I would say the veg/protein ratio was 4 to 1 and that was disappointing. Thankfully, the sauce was good. The fish amok was more reasonable. The size of the fish filet - though still really small in comparison with the vegies - was decent. The fish amok sauce was excellent and we were wishing there was more rice so we could enjoy every last drop of the leftover sauce. We were still hungry after the meal. Though the quality of food was great, I'm not sure I'd go back simply because the veg/protein/rice balance was extremely off.

Thaï Food... SURE... It's usually really good or really not so good, but hey whatever floats your boat.

A small restaurant located in Côte-des-Neiges area where they provide authentic cambodian and thai food. Staffs are super friendly and nice! I usually always order their pad thai, spring roll and thai tea. But recently I've tried a new plate called "Amok" and I've fallen in love with it. It's a Kroeung with coconut milk and cream, it basically tastes like curry but with some lime in it so it doesn't make you feel too heavy when eating it. It comes with rice and vegetables with a choice of chicken, tofu, shrimp or fish. This plate is one of their specialty and so I would recommend it :)

Came here after reading positive reviews on yelp. Food is A++ We had the fresh rolls, soup, Pad Thai, Red Curry and fried apple donuts. Everything was amazing!

Lunch food adventure... Came here wanting my monthly pad thai fix (trust me, you don't want to see me on a pad thai withdrawal day!) The staff is super friendly. They made a mistake on my order (ordered the beef pad thai and got the tofu pad thai) but offered to change it right away. Lunch comes with salad or soup and my soup was good (though Uber spicy!) Not the best pad thai I've had (lack a little bit of zest) but it relieved my fix and it goes for a quick lunch.

This newly opened restaurant is family owned and serves a fusion of authentic Cambodian cuisine as well as Thai. The traditional spices allow each dish to vary from being spicy, savoury, tangy, rich, refreshing to sweet (desserts). Dishes can be made spicier or less spicy upon request. Dishes can also be modified in case of allergies. Drop by during the afternoon to take advantage of the lunch menu or arrive in the evening to enjoy an unrushed meal served by a loving family.

Great service! Took a pad thaï and it was really decent. Would go back another time! You guys should try the thaï milk tea: Amazing!

I knew from the first sip of my Tom yum soup that I was in for a treat. Very delicious, great service. I hope to be back soon.

The place is small but very cozy (two blocks away from the subway) The staff is great, patient and friendly. The food was super tasty, I even forgot to take photos. They ser good food with lots of vegetables for a reasonable price. It worths the visit and I'm going there again for sure!

My wife and I ordered the spicy papaya salad, peanut shrimp, basil chicken, and Vietnamese iced coffee. The first two, we order often from different restaurants so we are picky. The salad and the Vietnamese iced coffee were really good. Unfortunately our two mains (shrimp and chicken dishes) didn't compare to other south East Asian restaurants we've eaten from. Too much vegetable with little meat and insufficient flavour. Expensive for what you get. The basil chicken was supposed to be spicy by wasn't. I'd recommend other South East Asian restaurants nearby. Pick up was efficient and the gentleman was polite.

Excellent Cambodian cuisine! Dancing tastebuds every bite. Smiley and friendly staff.

Occasionally eat Thai food and this one is cheap and tasty. Looks small from outside, but good for small group. Tried the tom yum soup and beef+chicken+shrimp skewers - liked them both. Would go again, and recommend to friends.

This is the restaurant to go to for a excellent soup. The soup has a sutled flavor.. The spring roll wee awaome! C'edt le restaurant pour une excellente soup tonkinoise. La saveur est subtil, et les rouleaux printanier était formidable!

Literally waited an hour and twenty minutes for our food to get here. The dishes arrived at 5 minute intervals and were cold. Tasty, but absolutely not worth the wait. Maybe it was tasty because we waited so long and were starving.

The chicken larb salad was solid. Minced chicken mixed with a very aromatic sauce of chili, lime, Thai basil, mint, with shallots and garlic mixed together with toasted rice. My first reaction to this was it would make such a kickass dumpling filling, unfortunately, these countries don't really share a boarder with a dumpling wrapping nation to have ever berth this culinary epiphany. Next project, NOTED.

Their tomyum soup was not authentic and tasted like paste you buy at the asian supermarket. Their peanut dish (cha arachide) was good but portion's a bit small for my taste.

Amazing thai food and the service was delightful! Its a small quaint restaurant, the outside does not do justice, a must try!!!

Im not too sure about this place. I do not think it is authentic cuisine because i felt that it was seasoned with spices that was very exotic. Maybe some kind of white washed asian food? But i cant lie and tell that the food was bad. Tasted pretty good. The people were nice but the food was just like other asian fast food places (ex.thai express). It wasnt like family oriented kind of asian food? I could be wrong. But i wont be going there again i think, ill just try to find more autenthic culture challenging places.

Potion size is SMALL for the price. My son had a tom yum soup and it looked nothing like the pic nor did it taste like it. It tasted more like a pho. Pad Thai was decent. The currys had good flavour though, but again, if your hungry order more. unfortunately wouldn't come again due to price value comparison. Especially for eating in a basement restaurant. Due to the BYOB option, his may be why prices are higher than normal for the plate size.

Can't say enough good things about this small Thai/Cambodia restaurant. Great food good service try the Tom Yum soup It is delicious. Will be back soon for sure. Ginger chicken and red curry were awesome. I hope they franchise.

The mango salad was EXCELLENT, the TukTuk noodles sooo yummy-- THE CREAM OF THE CROP and the most surprising dish for me was this Cambodian dish called Amok... a fried fish with coconut cream sauce that was really different and flavourful. It's really fun to discover somewhere new and amazing! Staff was nice and giggly too---

We were actually planning on eating somewhere else but it was closed so as we were walking down the street, we stumbled into Tuk Tuk (btw they are not affiliated with the food truck) and we will definitely return. Great initiation into Cambodian food which has some similarities to Thai and Vietnamese cuisine, it is unique in its own right. Fantastic service, our waitress was super patient, accommodating and generous with explanations about the food.
