Tuk Tuk Thai Street Food — Restaurant in Irvine

I recently tried Tuk Tuk Thai Street Food at the Trade Shopping Center and I was pleasantly surprised by their Pad See Ew. Although they don't usually customize orders, I asked if they could make a few changes to suit my preferences. The staff initially seemed hesitant, but they checked with the chef who was happy to accommodate my request for bean sprouts instead of Chinese broccoli, medium spice, and adding shrimp to the crispy pork. The food was prepared quickly, and I couldn't wait to share it with my mom.

My mom is a picky eater, so I was a bit nervous, but as soon as she smelled the Pad See Ew, she was convinced. She loved the aroma and the delicious flavors. She even agreed that the bean sprouts were a better choice than Chinese broccoli. It was a win-win!

I picked up food and not even a thank you or I'm sorry for the inconvenience. Even though the food is excellent, I...

It was in the middle of a food court of a strip mall of restaurants. If you know this plaza, you know parking is a pain during lunch hours.

The food container for the crab fried rice looked small at first, but I thought it was plentiful after finishing everything. They were generous on crab meat and other ingredients, and the spicy level was on par with most Thai restaurants I've been to. Flavor was a little bland, but maybe it was the one off day. I'll give this another...
