Tuk Tuk is a renaissance of “local watering hole” meets expert culinary fusion. Every menu item is curated with curiosity, precision, but ultimately care. Sam, Chris, Carolyn, and the whole gang have crafted something that feels like fine dining on vacation but also the warm hug of a loving relative after time apart - it’s like your favorite sweatpants but made out of the best cashmere - it’s the feeling you get when you take a scary risk and it pays off ten fold. The cocktails? Creative! The snacks? Each a mouthful of magic. The fried chicken? Mother may I?!? Every person who visits Tuk Tuk falls in love and becomes a regular. For my partner and our infant, we make it in at least once a week because it just feels like it’s a part of our home.
Recommendations: I love the seasonal changes and guest chefs because I’ve come to trust the balance and execution Sam and her team bring with everything they make and serve. But for folks looking for the next best snack since popped corn, you gotta try the lentil fritters. Feeling a little bougie? The mushroom toast feels like the fanciest catered appetizer, but you know - and actual serving size instead of one stupid cracker. My partner and I debate our favorite sandwich. He’s a fan of the duke and the Webster - both with Sam’s famous fried chicken - truly drool worthy. I’m a sucker for the meatball sandwich which uses her meatball curry seasoning and comes with the BEST sautéed spinach on top.
Oh and don’t skip out on the sambol. These delightful “condiments” or “toppings” are the thread that brings all of these flavors together.
Never had Sri Lankan flavors? Worried about spice level? Fear not just talk to your server. Sam’s food is all about tastes that are accommodating to everyone. There’s no heat rating to worry about, just a lot of really good, balanced flavors to take you on a magical journey. And this foodie is just dying for summer to return when Sam breaks out her famous tomato pie …
