Tuk Tuk — Restaurant in Basel

The Location Tuk Tuk Thai Basel is located just few steps from the city center. It is easily reachable from everywhere near the central station. The restaurant is in a tranquil part of the city. A real hidden gem! 4.5/5 stars

The Restaurant This Thai-restaurant opened just recently. It is more spacious than it looks like on first sight. It's simplistic furnishing suits the restaurant very well. It is very clean and well organized. 5/5 stars

The Food Probably the most important part of a restaurant review... The food blew me away! Authentic, simply delicious and for a very good price. I've had the lunch menu, a red curry with duck and chicken with basilicum. I would recommend these dishes to everyone! Likely the best (and cheapest) Thai restaurant in town. 5/5 stars

The Customer Service Nothing to comment. Very fast and friendly. Everyone looks happy to work there. After ordering the food they delivered it right after. Continue like this! 5/5 stars

Verdict This Thai-restaurant is a real hidden gem and I recommend everyone with love of the Thai-cuisine to have a look at this lovely venue! I'll...

Hello everyone

Yesterday I had the opportunity to enjoy an incredible dinner, as always. Every time I visit this place, both my family and I are delighted with the quality of the food and the atmosphere. On this occasion, the experience was equally spectacular in terms of the food, but unfortunately, the service did not meet the same standard.

We were attended by the manager, as we arrived early, and her attitude left much to be desired. My family was unfamiliar with some of the menu items, and when we asked for recommendations, her response was unenthusiastic and lacking in courtesy. Her arrogant attitude made us feel uncomfortable. At the end of the dinner, we thanked her for the meal and said goodbye, but she didn't even look at us, let alone return our farewell. It was a somewhat uncomfortable experience, despite the rest of the staff always being very friendly and professional.

I believe these details are important for maintaining the overall quality of the experience. We will definitely return for the food and the excellent team, but it would be good to improve the attention from...

The last few visits for lunch have seen long waits for the food to be refilled at the buffet. They bring some food and then it goes immediately because everyone is waiting and they actually don't bring much out. It is particularly bad for vegetarians. There is only ever plain rice, fried rice, noodles and a tofu dish (plus the spring rolls). When I arrived there was only plain rice. I waited ages for more food to come out, only for it to disappear immediately. I gave up waiting and left without any of the tofu dish, my takeaway box being 50% plain rice (with no sauce to put on it) and the rest was fried rice and noodles. At this point the fried rice and noodles had disappeared again so I could only fill up my box with plain rice. This used to be a good little place for a quick lunch but it is too much of a hassle these days to go for lunch, and there are better places for dinner. Note that there are no vegan options for the lunch buffet and they will not take orders from the...
