Tuk Tuk’s of West Valley — Restaurant in West Valley City

One of my favorite places for take out, I was super excited to eat in the restaurant with my girlfriends on a ladies night. They are located right off the beltway and the parking lot can get a little busy as there are multiple restaurants in the shopping center. We popped in on a Friday night around 6:30 and it was moderately busy.

For starters we had to have the Chicken Satay Skewers, the Creamy Thai Peanut Sauce is absolutely amazing. We also switched it up a little bit and ordered off the desert menu for an appetizer, the Sticky Rice and Mango, which was possibly everyone's favorite dish of the night. You can choose between the regular white rice or the purple Ube rice. We were feeling adventurous and went with the Ube and it was just out of this world amazing. A true comfort food on a cold and snowy SLC day.

The Tempura Vegetables are definitely shareable, the portion was huge and the veggies were so colorful and served with a delicious sweet and spicy dipping sauce. The Drunken Noodles are another one of my favorites we had to have. The noodles are super fresh and thick, there are lots of veggies and meat, the flavors all together are just unexplainably good. The Pad Ga Prow is another one of their super flavorful comfort foods you need on a cold day. It's a Thai Basil Stir Fry and the broth is so amazing you could literally have it on its own. I normally get it with beef, it has tons of veggies and is served with a side of white rice.

We shared a couple different main dishes between the three of us and the portions were all enough for us to take home left overs. If you're looking for larb, drunken noodles, or want to try some Ube flavored sticky rice this is your place. I also want to give you a quick pro tip on their SPICE levels. Don't play around and feel adventurous okay. I love spicy food and order the spice level 0 here. The 1 is VERY spicy, I ordered it the first time and was...

It was about a 10-minute wait which is no big deal but we sat down. They asked us Three or four times within 5 minutes for our odor. It was almost like we felt like we were being rushed out of the restaurant.

We finally ordered the food. Each plate comes out slowly finish one finish another and the other one doesn't come out at all. Normally when you with people you like to eat with people not all separately.

Food quality the larb it's just ground beef place on 9th south way more authentic. The Korean chicken was good. We asked for. Lettuce extra lettuce because the lettuce that they give with the meal is nothing like a little corner of a head lettuce, cheap lettuce. We ask for extra lettuce and they want to charge us $4 for an extra piece. Cheap ground beef. Nothing unique. Stir fry never even came. We just canceled it because it took forever and we were done eating all our other stuff and it still didn't come out. Service is horrible. Quality food is not authentic. It must be a white dude that owns this place. Nickel and dime you for everything. The sticky rice came in a bag, a ziplock bag. Not fresh by any means. Basically it's frozen in a bag and then heated up. And bring it out in with the bag in a bamboo container. That's classy. This place is garbage. I wouldn't eat here again. I wouldn't recommend anybody. $5 for a little bag of sticky rice. Services horrible food don't come out right at...

A little more than 20 years ago I was on a business trip across the pond and one of our stops was Thailand. Having never eaten Thai food before, our guide ordered for me. I'll never forget it. We were in a little dive Cafe sitting right beside a muddy river. He ordered red curry with prawns. I had never tasted anything like it in my life. It was like heaven over rice. That's been a long time ago now. I've eaten Thai curry from Seattle to South Florida, and from San Diego to Connecticut. In all my travels and places I live, I seek out new Thai restaurants, always on a quest for more authentic curry. There is wide variation in how chefs make curry, and i consider myself a connoisseur of the matter, not so much with green curry because I don't care for that one, but for sure all the others. In Utah I've eaten various Thai curries (not to be confused with Indian curry) from St George to Logan. A few have been pretty fair but only one stands out. TukTuk in west valley is better and more authentic curry than the rest so far. Panang curry with beef is my favorite, followed closely red curry, and then yellow curry...
