" What a great little spot! Mimi's menu is loaded with all the favorite Thai dishes. The pad see ew was excellent, with an ideal amount of char and flavor. I also loved their casual atmosphere, making it perfect for lunch breaks or dinner with friends. The service was prompt but friendly, and the prices are quite reasonable for such tremendous quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mimi's Tuk Tuk is a hidden gem in the neighborhood! I always go for their pad thai. The flavors are almost identical to what I tasted in Thailand. As a regular customer, I appreciate how they welcome you with a smile and attentive service. However, I noticed my last visit had a slight slip in cleanliness, which I hope they rectify. Overall, it's a great place to get your Thai food fix! " (*Curated Review*)

" Mimi's Tuk Tuk is an underappreciated spot! I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious their food is. The yellow curry is flavorful, and the spice level is customizable which is a huge plus. The only issue I had was the seating; the restaurant felt a bit cramped. Still, the food makes it worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mimi's Tuk Tuk was a treat! My friends and I ordered a few dishes for takeout and were blown away by the flavors. The drunken noodles and red curry were delightful! Everything felt freshly made and authentic. I especially appreciated their attention to spice levels—they got mine just right! The only downside was the slight wait time for our food, but it was worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered from Mimi's Tuk Tuk last night for a cozy dinner at home. The yellow curry was rich, fragrant, and far more delicious than any I’ve had lately. The portion sizes were generous, so I have leftovers for lunch today! My partner grabbed the pad see ew, which was equally delightful. I just wish I lived closer to make frequent visits, but I’ll definitely return whenever I’m in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a dreadful experience here recently. The curries I ordered seemed watered down, lacking the robust flavors I recalled from my previous visits. It’s disappointing because I used to love this restaurant, but I wonder if they have changed chefs or something. The service was still good, but the food quality was not what I expected. I hope it improves because I was a huge fan. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a less than stellar experience at Mimi's Tuk Tuk last week. While I was really looking forward to trying their coconut shrimp, it turned out to be overly fried and nothing like the image I had in my mind. It’s unfortunate because I’d heard good things about the place. The service seemed a little off during my visit as well; I had to wait a long time for my food even though I ordered ahead. I hope this was just a one-off. " (*Curated Review*)
