Went in for lunch one day and was pleasantly surprised the food was fresh and came out in a timely manner I enjoyed the atmosphere and the prices were fair. I enjoyed the food but wouldn't drive out of my way for it. My only negative about the place would be that it wasn't busy yet the waitresses still didn't keep my drink full or check on is enough I still left happy and would go again if I was in the area.

I'm giving four stars for the quality of the food. The service was poor the night we were there but they were apologetic. I think it may just have been a rough night for them, though the place was not overly busy. We ordered Pad Thai with Chicken and Pad Prik with chicken. Both were well prepared with fresh ingredients. In Jacksonville, even that much can be hard to find. The flavoring and the spice level were good, not bland or overly spicy. We will visit again.
(4)William P.
Ordered take out. We had spring rolls, crab Rangoon, pad Thai, and drunken noodles. Everything was delicious and the food way ready very quickly. Highly recommend.
(4)Gregor V.
My favorite Thai in Jacksonville. It's in a strip mall but they've done a lot of work for an authentic experience on the inside. The food is reasonably priced and the service is very effective and quick.

Let me admit one thing: I have never been to a bad Thai restaurant. From my experience, there are only 2 types of Thai restaurants - the amazing, write-about-it-in-your-diary kind, or every other Thai place. The majority fit in the second category. However, that isn't a bad thing, because in my opinion you can rarely go wrong. Tuptim Thai is one of these second category restaurants. Good but not fantastic. It really wants to be better than it is, judging but the upscale decor, but just doesn't achieve it. My wife and I went here for a date night and the ambiance was great and the food was good but we never found anything that really reached in my happy place and tickled me (I had to wait until after dinner for that). We ordered 2 types of curry, panang and green, as well as the appetizer sampler. The food portions were just right but the prices were quite high considering it wasn't any better than any of the other cheap Thai places that offer similar cuisine for half the price. We definitely enjoyed our evening and I think the setting helped make the night more romantic but if you're just wanting good Thai food, I think you'll be just as satisfied with any other place on the map.

Authentic, clean, good eats! My Philippino friend introduced me to this place - we went for lunch and we were not disappointed. When you walk in you feel like you've entered a different world - at least I did as I have a very bland culinary background. The atmosphere what I would describe as authentic, although I've never been to Thailand. The food was very good! I had the traditional Pad Thai with shrimp, which was amazing. As someone who has never had Thai before, I would definitely get it again. The spring rolls are good as well as the mushroom clear soup. Check it out if you are nearby looking for a good Thai experience!

Came here last night with my husband and daughter for our 23rd wedding anniversary. We lucked out and arrived at the perfect time, about 1/2 hour later the place was packed. First impressions? Absolutely gorgeous inside and smells divine. Even the tables were dressed to the nines with place mats and fancy linen. We started off with the "Tuptim Puffs" as an appetizer - 5 fried wonton pockets stuffed with ground chicken, shrimp, peas and corn with a sweet and sour dipping sauce. They were quite tasty and the sauce was a pleasure, not the average hot pink and sickly sweet sauce you find in other places. We all tried something different. Daughter had the Cashew Nut Chicken, husband had the Pork Drunken Noodles and I had the Chicken Pad Thai. We were all very pleased. The veggies all were super fresh and crisp (the carrots in the Cashew Nut dish were cut into bird shapes) and the meat was flavorful and generous. All 3 of us brought 1/2 of our entrees home, the serving sizes were quite large. We were warned of a wait time due to all dishes being prepared to order, but were thrilled when the wait time was better than expected. This place is a bit pricy, but definitely worth it for the amount and quality you receive.
(4)Greg C.
This place simply rocks. Great decor inside, ridiculously fast lunch service and excellent food each and every time. The paanang and the pad Thai are both delicious, well done and served with all the trimmings and a nice touch of a flower to boot.
(5)Samantha D.
This place is amazing. The environment is cozy, the energy pleasant, the food delicious! I'm vegetarian and they had plenty of options to suit my eating style. The coconut milk soup is so comforting and the tofu green curry was very flavorful. I got mine "HOT", but it's default medium Spicy to order. Every meal comes with an orchid garnish which was a sweet surprise because they're my favorite flowers :)
(5)Jcj J.
I've been here a couple times and so far so good. We ordered the standard Thai fare. Pad Thai and Panang curry. Both very good. My BF and I went the other night and were seated right away and food came out promptly. Our server last night was very courteous and attentive as well as the rest of the staff. My only feedback is some seating areas are a little dark and the booths aren't all that comfortable, its like they seats are little to high. We opt for the regular tables. Look forward to going back and trying more dishes soon.

If you are looking for a quick place to grab some Thai food, this place might be the place for you. I have not been there for dinner but only for the lunch hours, and I must say that the place is never too busy. So, the service is really good being some of the few customers there. The people are nice and friendly too. For someone like me who enjoys super spicy thai food and may need their water refilled a lot, the waitress is always there for you! They have a wide selection of thai dishes that are standard for your everyday thai restaurants. My favorite thai dish is "thai-hot" red curry. Compared to other thai restaurants that I have visited, the curry here isn't the best. A few times the curry seems like it is breaking and not consistent. Also, they will sometimes make the curry unexpectedly too sweet! My favorite appetizers here are the satay chicken and the crab rangoon. Besides the quick and friendly service, the food is OK.
(3)Laura G.
This is our new favorite Thai restaurant. Beautiful interior. Very friendly staff. The food is authentic and delicious! The fried wontons are out of this world amazing. My husband loves the sweet and sour chicken and I usually get the fried rice. I consider the prices to be high for the portion size, but again the food is very yummy.
(5)Whitney A.
I tried this place the other day with co-workers. I had never had Thai food before until here. I ordered to pad Thai with chicken. The portion was large and the food was good. The egg rolls are phenomenal. I also ordered their crab Rangoon it was different but good. Over all, for a first time Thai food experience this place is pretty good.
(5)Mary T.
Best Thai food in jax! Complementary soup and appetizer, most authentic delicious taste of Thai food and Thai tea.
(4)Jaimie L.
My fav. thai food place in Jacksonville! Great ambience and service. I love thai tea, theirs was just the right amount of sweetness! The food is fresh and tasty :) The one thing that stands out the most is their plating.. its so appealing and beautiful!! Oh and the tom yum is hot and delish!!
(5)Leah A.
Man this place has great Thai food! I probably eat here way too much, but I'm OK with it. Again, I called ahead and picked up my order. Everything was piping hot and consistently delicious like all the other times I've ordered from Tuptim. Posted more pics for you to drool over. Trust me--you won't be disappointed. Ever. :)
(5)Samantha P.
Tuptim Thai is hands down the best Thai restaurant in Jacksonville in my opinion! I always go to this location when i crave authentic high quality Thai cuisine. I have been going there side they opened! The chicken Phad Thai is one of my favs. Not only is the food delicious it is beautiful!
(5)Maya B.
If you ask for hot, you get hot: and that's the way I like it. Their curries come with a generous helping of rice, and the pad thai is another staple and favorite. The service turn around is fast (I place an order and pick it up within 10 minutes), the portions are plentiful and the flavor is never anything less than intense. Now my weekly go-to for take out.
(5)Abbey M.
So far my favorite Thai restaurant in Jacksonville! My husband and I dine here for lunch whenever I have the day off. Their lunch prices are great! Certain entrees come with two mini spring rolls and a soup, which is great because you get to sample these items without having to plunge into ordering a full size. The soup is always nice and hot, I love this because I believe that the temperature in the restaurant is often a little cold. The spring rolls are also great. FOOD: Presentation is beautiful and the entrees come out with this exotic flower placed on the side.They have the option to get your entrees mild, medium, hot or Thai hot. We adore all things spicy so we both order Thai hot, but warning: your nose will run and you may tear up little but the food is delicious. Husband gets The Drunken Noodles with pork Thai spicy. He loves this dish! Another great thing about this place is they have vegetarian options: tofu or vegetables. I always order the tofu and I think its the best! ATMOSPHERE: I think it has a romantic feel. All of the guests talk with relatively low voices. The décor is beautiful. We always sit in a booth and though the booth is made of wood and not the most comfortable the back of the booth extends to just above your head so you don't necessary feel like anyone is sitting behind you. STAFF: Very friendly and helpful. Their is a tiny language barrier depending on who waits on you but for the most part I think they understand what you're saying they may just have a hard time explaining their answer. SUGGESTION: Get the Thai tea if you've never ordered it. It is a sweet tea with a heavy cream poured over ice and comes with a thick straw. DELICIOUS! I have tried to recreate this at home and I cannot. Also, if you are cold natured, like myself, bring a light jacket. The booths by the wall and windows are the most romantic.

I have to say I was very surprised with the quality of service and the food here. I went during lunch with a group of co workers for the first time today. We were greatly warmly and the inside is much bigger than I would have thought from the outside. I ordered the chicken pad Thai and was excited that it was only 7.95. Prior to getting our meals, we were served a noodle soup with cilantro and spring rolls at no additional charge. I was surprised at the free food with lunch at that price point. Even more surprising was the amount of food I got. I had so much that two thirds went home with me. I will also report it was just as good microwaved as it was the first time around. I think I found a new lunch spot and will be going back.
(5)Peiney A.
They always get the right amount of hot for me! Prices are awesome and the customer service always friendly. Nice presentation and decor.
(5)Jim H.
My wife and I were trying to find a new place to try and found this via a review on Yelp. We were so glad to have found this place. The food is really delicious, the portions are ample, and the atmosphere is unique and perfect for what they are providing. The price for the food was very reasonable, especially at lunch. You won't be disappointed if you go here. It is one of the best Thai restaurants I have tried. Between their prices, the quality of the food, and the service I don't think you can get much better when looking for this type of food.
(5)Lisa S.
Hands down, Tuptim Thai is my favorite Thai restaurant in town. I mostly visit the Roosevelt location, but both this one and the Baymeadows location have been nice experiences. Whether it's with my family dining in, or taking it to-go on my way home from work, the food always tastes fresh. The proportions are a nice size too; I typically have leftovers for the next day. Try the Tom kha Gai (chicken and coconut milk soup) , any of the curry dishes, or the Pad Thai (noodles). The Thai tea and coffee are tasty too.
(5)Sandy M.
Good solid Thai food and a very convenient lunch spot. Not the best thai I've ever had but definitely earned a place in the lunch rotation. I had to go with the standard pad thai, by which I judge all thai places. Can't wait to try the red curry, it looked delicious on the table next to us. Efficient, friendly service but no fountain soda is annoying.
(4)Jennifer M.
I have eaten here multiple times and the service is always very attentive. Homey decor. Lovely presentation of dishes. Although they don't make some of my favorite Thai dishes, everything that I've tried has been delicious.
(5)Lawrence X.
Awesome find. I am sad that there is nobody else eating here on a Monday night. I had the spring rolls, hot and sour soup, and drunken noodles. Washed down with a nice Singha beer. Great service. I would definitely be a regular if I lived here.
(4)Stacey H.
This is and will always be the best thai place in town. The pad drunken noodles and the clear chicken noodle soup is amazing. The food is as great as it was two years ago when I last had it. I live too far to visit often!
(5)Jack G.
Been here a few times. Great food, great service, very nice and calm environment. One of my favorite places now. I recommend to come if your in town.
(5)Jeffrey W.
I come here for dinner often enough that most of the servers know me. The food is always nicely presented and tasty. I try not to get the same thing every time I go, but some of my favorites are the Gan Garee Curry, Pad Thai, Drunken Noodles, and the Amazing. The servers are always very polite and attentive. Prices are very reasonable. Most of the dishes are around $10 give or take, with your choice of chicken, beef, or shrimp, and the portions are quite generous. They have some other more pricey entrees, but I've actually never tried them. If you're in the area, I recommend this place.
(4)Jeff S.
Wonderful decor and authentic thai food! I didn't have 1 complaint.
(4)Yvette S.
Food great and atmosphere great...excellent way to do lunch and escape from the world for just a moment
(5)Lauren K.
This was my 4th time at Tuptim Thai and everytime I go it is excellent! I especially enjoy the Red Curry. I had it with Shrimp this time and it was delicious! My boyfriend loves the Massaman Curry Beef! They always have a nice plate presentation and service is always with a smile and pleasant. Tonight they gave us a complimentary little fried banana spring roll dessert. I thought that was really nice! The decor is elegant and a great place to take a date!
(4)Ali B.
Love it here. the food is good the service excellent and there are always leftovers!
(4)Nicole D.
First off this was the best tasting Thai in Jax. The service and food was epic. We just moved here from Southern CA and SoCal has some amazing Thai!!! My husband and I ordered the Tom Kah (coconut soup.) The flavor was was very good. I could taste the coconut as well as some of the native Thai ingredients. Our soup came with chicken and it was perfectly fitting for the delish broth. On a scale from 1-10 i would give it a 7. Next we got two appitizers the calamari and the crab rangoon. The calamari was crispy but not overly fried. Also, the calamari itself wasnt rubbery It is hard to come by a perfectly cooked squid ring :) i would give the diah a 6. The crab rangoon was different it wasnt exactly what i was expecting when it comes to a crab rangoon but it was satifying. If you order this any expectations should be thrown out the window. From what it seems they use real crab and curry! Its a different taste but it is still really good. I would give it an 8. Our main dish was Pad-see-ew with beef. Ive tried thia dish at other places but this seems to be the best one. The ingredients tasted fresh and the noodles were cooked perfectly! This dish seemed to be really saucy but it was just enough for the noodle/beef ratio. It seemed to lack something but i was very pleased with the taste! I would give it 8. My husband got the Thai iced tea and i wasnt a fan it was VERY sweet! The service was great the man who took our order was patient and very quick with our drinks and food. An elder lady came to our table and to see how we were doing. I told her the food was good and that we will be coming back. She was great and the place was clean I am full and happy!
(5)Aaron C.
I've visited here a few times, on both occasions I ordered the drunken noodles. Tuptim is definitely a solid choice for a consistently great taste.
(4)M G.
Very tasty, not the best Thai I've ever had but the best I've had in Jax.
(3)Greg M.
This is my favorite Thai restaurant in Jacksonville. I'm giving it five stars based upon the food that Jacksonville has to offer which is hard for me to do because I have spent a few months all over Thailand. The people there are very friendly, courteous and respectful. The ambience is very serene, cute and has nice woodwork that gives a very distinct Thai feel on the inside of this strip mall restaurant. Don't be fooled by the exterior. They do it right.
(5)Win R.
Average thai food. Nice family service. Served soggy likely to wok not hot enough.
(3)Vince G.
Thanks to my job I am constantly moving which means I am always trying to find "go to" restaurants where I can satisfy my ethnic food cravings. Having been previously living in L.A I had almost given up hope on finding a decent Thai place in Jacksonville until I stumbled upon Tuptim. The service was fast and friendly and the food was by far the best Thai I had tried in Jax. Check this place out if you love Pad Thai as much as I do.
(4)Laurie D.
So happy that a horrible traffic jam made me reevaluate my commute home and I stopped at Tuptim Thai for dinner! After a grueling thirty minutes of going nowhere on 17, I was pleasantly surprised to enter the Oasis of Tuptim Thai. I loved the decor of the restaurant immediately. I was seated in a comfortable booth with beautiful table linens. I ordered the Pad See Ew with shrimp, which is noodles with a sweet brown sauce and vegetables. It was little too sweet for my taste but it was delicious. It was definitely made with fresh ingredients. Tuptim Thai also had three long very private booths, that look like they would be ideal for a celebratory lunch or dinner. The restaurant was very empty the weeknight I was there, but it did seem to do a very steady takeout business.
(4)Vycki J.
This exquisite restaurant has changed my opinion of Thai food in Jacksonville. Care and quality was apparent in every detail. The Duck Panang was extraordinary and the Tom Yum Soup was delicious! Definitely going back and recommending this place to my family and friends.
(5)Shari K.
Food great Service was awesome
(4)Terri P.
Wonderful always we've been there many times and have never been disappointed. I wish they delivered :)
(5)Jim L.
Very good food and service. Great value. I like the lunch specials although they would not swap out the chicken soup for a clear the food was good. A bit salty but delicious I will be back
(4)Angela D.
The atmosphere is beautiful. The thai tea was so tasty. I wanted a curry that wasn't on the menu and they offered to make it! It was very good. I really enjoy this place. They are reasonably priced.
(4)Tony K.
The food and service was fantastic, would definitely recommend this restaurant if you love authentic Thai food...I give them three thumbs up!
(5)Lai S.
Good food good lunch specials sometimes their sauce is overwhelming because they put too much.. But never nasty.. I would like to rate them. 3 1/2 unfortunately it isn't possible.. Their soup that comes with each meal is good so is their fried spring roll I would say their appetizers are a bit pricey for the size and amount.. My husband and I eat here often because its down the st from NAS JAX
(3)Joel V.
I can't complain about the wait staff. They were good. The new shrimp roll appetizer I had was good. The Thai Iced Tea was just like any other good one out there. The Chicken Pad See Ew (my favorite Thai dish ever ever) was either a black sheep mistake or the cook uses almost triple the flavor ingredients to make their particular Pad See Ew dish compared to others. It was just unenjoyable. Skip that dish and try something else if you do come. Oh, the prices here should probably be listed as "$" rather than "$$." Sad Pad See Ew fan, out.
(3)Matt M.
Okay, this is not too far from my office so I went there when it was first opened and was not very impressed. But today I went back and what a difference a few months made. Service was attentive, but not rushed and the food was outstanding! Met a friend for lunch and he started with Crab Rangoon and he was delighted with his choice. With lunch you get a cup of noodle soup and a small crispy spring roll. The spring roll was "eh", but the soup was surprisingly good and I took it all the way down to last drop. For our entree, my table mate had Pad Thai with a side of Satay Sauce, while I had Thai Fried Rice with shrimp. Both got high marks, as did refilling of water and tea and a simple request for additional napkins. Glad I gave it another try and what a difference it made. By the way, I would probably give it a 3.5, just because the ambiance was not as good as other Thai restaurants in the area, but the food quality made rounding up an easy task.
(4)Jeanne D.
This was a wonderful dining experience that I can't wait to repeat. I had the Tofu Pad Thai and it was superb. The tofu was seasoned expertly and the vegetables were of high quality and a very generous quantity. The sauce was just right, spicy and not too hot nor too sweet. The decor of this restaurant is beautiful, I felt like I was transported from a common little strip mall to an elegant place in Thailand. I would advise you not to sit between the door and the takeout counter (if you can avoid it) because this restaurant does a lot of takeout orders and the constant walking in and out of takeout patrons is distracting when you are concentrating on a great meal! This restaurant is hard to find, it is just north of the Naval Air Station on US 17 (Roosevelt Boulevard) and is in the same strip mall as the Hurricane restaurant. I think, if you like Thai food, that you will find it is worth checking out for yourself.
(4)Tron C.
Been here a couple of times for lunch, the food is pretty good and the prices are very reasonable. The décor is traditional and the wait staff is polite.
(4)Charles J.
I used to love this place. The food is amazing and it comes fast. However, for the past few months the experience has gone downhill. Aparaentely the young man and his wife have begun to bring their baby to work with them and the baby runs all over the restaurant screaming. One of the waitresses carries the baby while trying to take orders from customers, which everyone knows this is not possible. If this was not bad enough, the baby was placed on the counter by the father and the baby began to run around on the counter where food for to go is placed. The mother was feeding the baby while the baby was running on top of the tables and counter. And the worst of it was the young waitress screaming like a madman while chasing the baby throughout the isles of the dining room. I have been patient over the past few months as I dine here all the time, however, as much as I love the food, not sure me or my friends will be coming here again. Screaming babies, babies walking ontop of tables and counters where people eat and food is placed and the worst screaming waitresses playing with babies in a fully seated restaurant. I have never seen a mother and father allow such a thing in a place of business.
(1)E M.
My husband and I stopped here for lunch and had a very enjoyable meal. Servers are attentive and friendly. Food was excellent.
(4)William S.
Very good food. Great Service and very comfortable dining experience. Very good value.
(4)Chuck F.
I think this Thai place is as good a value as anywhere in Jax. I wish it were closer to Riverside/Avondale, but hopefully we can keep them in business (unlike 3 previous Thai places in the vicinity). The super-spicy stuff REALLY is super-spicy (but evidently it's great according to my wife and sis-in-law). Other big hits are "The Amazing" and the Pad Thai is on par or superior to most I've had. NOTE: was told Pad Thai didn't have fish sauce, but have now been told it does...so it's not vegetarian evidently.
(4)Chad L.
This might be one of the closest places to get Thai food if you live around Riverside and Avondale and the food is great. This is an authentic thai restaurant with a lot of vegetarian options. I would recommend their Massaman Curry.
(5)Nathan T.
The ambient was good, the hostesses were friendly. I ordered Tom Yum Shrimp but it didn't taste like Tom Yum at all. It was missing lemon grass flavor and many other ingredients to be the true Tom Yum. I also ordered Pad Thai chicken. The dish looked and smelled great. Took a first bite and I was surprised how good it tasted but the noodle was too chewy. I asked the hostesses and they both replied that the noodle was supposed to be like that. Living in Los Angeles and near Thai Town I know pad thai noodle is not supposed to be that chewy. 3 stars for good services and tasty food.
(3)Trevor S.
Best Thai food in Jacksonville's west side.
(4)Bingle W.
The décor in this place is Thai to the nth level. I'm talking wood paneling, sequined elephant wall hangings, carved wood booths with silky pillows, and you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a bamboo plant. It's a visual overload. And the Thai really know how to pick out a mango. Every authentic Thai restaurant I've been to have the best damn mangos in their sticky rice desserts. It could be the dead of freakin' winter and the mangos are always in season and taste like they've just been picked from a tree growing in some tropical, summer climate. What is up with that? Okay, so the mangos are good, the decoration is seizure-inducing, and the panang curry will burn your lips off. And that's a little weird, because I didn't ask for additional heat and the menu said that all of the dishes are prepared mild unless told otherwise and it didn't have a little picture of a chili pepper next to the dish on the menu. So, either they thought, "Eh... she looks Asian. She can handle it" and snuck in some atomic peppers into the curry or they lied. Also ordered were the tuptim puffs (kind of a cross between a fried wonton and lumpia) which were okay and the pad khing which tasted like every other pad khing I've ever had, and the tom kha gai which was overloaded with uncooked red onions. The presentation was nice. Oh, and instead of mints, they gave out tamarind candy with the check and that just made my day. By the way, if you're tall, I would not recommend sitting at the booths because the tables are pretty low and the benches are pretty high, so you'll be doubled over eating your food.
(3)Carol B.
Love this place! Only negative is that it's not totally consistent. There are definitely times the food is outstanding and the next time it will be just okay.
(4)F W.
Best thai food in Jacksonville. I have been going here for years, and LOVE the food. My only complaint is the music. They seem to play the same three instrumental songs over and over again every time I am there. Helpful tip: they do take-out orders. "The Amazing" is... AMAZING!
(5)Katherine M.
Today, my family took my mom out for Mother's Day to Tuptim Thai on Roosevelt, and it was such a lovely experience, I actually felt like I owned THEM something- which leads me to writing this awesome review. It is quaint but elegant with friendly service. The atmosphere is gorgeous and relaxed. The food is delicious and the price is reasonable. My mom commented on how detail oriented they are with everything and I would have to agree. From the intricately carved wood wall decorations to the crafted rose made from vegetables that adorn every plate- this place puts a lot of work in giving every customer an experience that makes them feel like they stepped into their own Thai paradise.
(4)Beth W.
I love Tuptim Thai. I am usually not a Thai food fan but I get the Amazing every time I go and enjoy it so much I never want to try anything else! The staff and service are very good and the meal comes with soup, a spring roll, and the main dish so is a fair bit of food. The peanut sauce is great.
(5)D Y.
Step in to Tuptim Thai and be greeted by a warm 'Sawadee-ka' as one of the friendly staff takes you to your table. Decor was of carved rosewood and rich silk tablecloths that gives one a feel of being somewhere near the orient. Menu has an ample selection of traditional items. My friend and I went during lunch. She ordered the pineapple fried rice and I got a #1 heat factor (closest to wuss as one can get besides a zero but still up for a tiny flavor challenge). The lunch prices are very affordable!! Our server brought us each a soup and a tightly wrapped spring roll about the size of a chapstick dispenser with sauce. This was, of course, a 'teaser' if you ask me, since they were GONE in less than 60 seconds! Both lunch dishes looked great with it's floral-like garnish made of carrots and thin strings of beet. The fried rice was delish! But the Pad Thai noodles were just slightly overcooked to the point they were a little too stuck together. The #1 heat factor was mild and I think this wuss could have gone to 2. I also had a Thai milk tea. If you've never had one, you should try it once. It's also good with Boba balls, but unfortunately, they do not have the boba tapioca balls. Decor, service and Thai milk tea, spring rolls & fried rice get a 4, while I give the Pad Thai a 2. And that's because if the overcooked noodles.
(3)Olivia T.
I drove around forever trying to find this place because they just switched names-again. The cashew tofu came in a thick, oily, brown sauce-does NOT come recommended. I can't find cashew stir fries anywhere in jax, it's always a let-down because it's my favorite thai dish. The tofu was -as one reviewer previously described-watery and oily. The spring roll that came with lunch was good and a nice touch. Meh. Nothing really stood out as great.
(2)Hung D.
Party of 6 for lunch. We eat Thai every where we go. Traveling thru Jax. Excellent meal. One of the best Thai. Portion very generous considering Thai & not take out Chinese. My daughter always order Pad Thai & said this was the best because of sauce & quality chicken meat. My other daughter ordered the Green Curry, something she always get. It was the best - just spicey enough, not too much coconut milk, fresh vegetables with both reg eggplant & Thai eggplant, quality Jasmine rice, again quality meat. Pineapple fried rice was very unique. My other daughter scraped every bites of the plate. Very authentic. Love it. Too bad not in Augusta GA. We also have eaten at the Tuptim Thai in Brunswick, also owned by same lady. Also good.
(5)Victor A.
The food was amazing and the service was fast!
(5)Jennifer P.
LOVE their lunch. Haven't gone for dinner yet, but I expect it's the same great food maybe just bigger portions... which by the way, are already pretty huge. They also get an A+ for presentation. I love the heart shaped Rice on the plate. You can reasonably have a satisfying lunch here for around $10 INCLUDING a decent tip. You get miso soup, a spring roll, and you lunch special (with your choice of protein) for $7. Add a drink and a $2 tip and you maybe splurged back $10 after tax. Very reasonable. Great Flavors. Only issue is parking. They are in the same lot as Tijuana Flats, a Drive through BBQ place (which is also YUMMY), and some other chain establishment. So lunchtime parking can be dicey.

I have eaten here multiple times and the service is always very attentive. Homey decor. Lovely presentation of dishes. Although they don't make some of my favorite Thai dishes, everything that I've tried has been delicious.
(5)Lawrence X.
Awesome find. I am sad that there is nobody else eating here on a Monday night. I had the spring rolls, hot and sour soup, and drunken noodles. Washed down with a nice Singha beer. Great service. I would definitely be a regular if I lived here.
(4)Stacey H.
This is and will always be the best thai place in town. The pad drunken noodles and the clear chicken noodle soup is amazing. The food is as great as it was two years ago when I last had it. I live too far to visit often!
(5)Jack G.
Been here a few times. Great food, great service, very nice and calm environment. One of my favorite places now. I recommend to come if your in town.
(5)Mary T.
Best Thai food in jax! Complementary soup and appetizer, most authentic delicious taste of Thai food and Thai tea.
(4)Leah A.
Man this place has great Thai food! I probably eat here way too much, but I'm OK with it. Again, I called ahead and picked up my order. Everything was piping hot and consistently delicious like all the other times I've ordered from Tuptim. Posted more pics for you to drool over. Trust me--you won't be disappointed. Ever. :)
(5)Samantha P.
Tuptim Thai is hands down the best Thai restaurant in Jacksonville in my opinion! I always go to this location when i crave authentic high quality Thai cuisine. I have been going there side they opened! The chicken Phad Thai is one of my favs. Not only is the food delicious it is beautiful!
(5)Maya B.
If you ask for hot, you get hot: and that's the way I like it. Their curries come with a generous helping of rice, and the pad thai is another staple and favorite. The service turn around is fast (I place an order and pick it up within 10 minutes), the portions are plentiful and the flavor is never anything less than intense. Now my weekly go-to for take out.
(5)Lisa S.
Hands down, Tuptim Thai is my favorite Thai restaurant in town. I mostly visit the Roosevelt location, but both this one and the Baymeadows location have been nice experiences. Whether it's with my family dining in, or taking it to-go on my way home from work, the food always tastes fresh. The proportions are a nice size too; I typically have leftovers for the next day. Try the Tom kha Gai (chicken and coconut milk soup) , any of the curry dishes, or the Pad Thai (noodles). The Thai tea and coffee are tasty too.
(5)Sandy M.
Good solid Thai food and a very convenient lunch spot. Not the best thai I've ever had but definitely earned a place in the lunch rotation. I had to go with the standard pad thai, by which I judge all thai places. Can't wait to try the red curry, it looked delicious on the table next to us. Efficient, friendly service but no fountain soda is annoying.
(4)Greg C.
This place simply rocks. Great decor inside, ridiculously fast lunch service and excellent food each and every time. The paanang and the pad Thai are both delicious, well done and served with all the trimmings and a nice touch of a flower to boot.
(5)Jcj J.
I've been here a couple times and so far so good. We ordered the standard Thai fare. Pad Thai and Panang curry. Both very good. My BF and I went the other night and were seated right away and food came out promptly. Our server last night was very courteous and attentive as well as the rest of the staff. My only feedback is some seating areas are a little dark and the booths aren't all that comfortable, its like they seats are little to high. We opt for the regular tables. Look forward to going back and trying more dishes soon.
(4)Samantha D.
This place is amazing. The environment is cozy, the energy pleasant, the food delicious! I'm vegetarian and they had plenty of options to suit my eating style. The coconut milk soup is so comforting and the tofu green curry was very flavorful. I got mine "HOT", but it's default medium Spicy to order. Every meal comes with an orchid garnish which was a sweet surprise because they're my favorite flowers :)
(5)Tim L.
Authentic, clean, good eats! My Philippino friend introduced me to this place - we went for lunch and we were not disappointed. When you walk in you feel like you've entered a different world - at least I did as I have a very bland culinary background. The atmosphere what I would describe as authentic, although I've never been to Thailand. The food was very good! I had the traditional Pad Thai with shrimp, which was amazing. As someone who has never had Thai before, I would definitely get it again. The spring rolls are good as well as the mushroom clear soup. Check it out if you are nearby looking for a good Thai experience!
(5)Jaimie L.
My fav. thai food place in Jacksonville! Great ambience and service. I love thai tea, theirs was just the right amount of sweetness! The food is fresh and tasty :) The one thing that stands out the most is their plating.. its so appealing and beautiful!! Oh and the tom yum is hot and delish!!
(5)Laura G.
This is our new favorite Thai restaurant. Beautiful interior. Very friendly staff. The food is authentic and delicious! The fried wontons are out of this world amazing. My husband loves the sweet and sour chicken and I usually get the fried rice. I consider the prices to be high for the portion size, but again the food is very yummy.
(5)Peiney A.
They always get the right amount of hot for me! Prices are awesome and the customer service always friendly. Nice presentation and decor.
(5)Trevor S.
Best Thai food in Jacksonville's west side.
(4)Stewart P.
Let me admit one thing: I have never been to a bad Thai restaurant. From my experience, there are only 2 types of Thai restaurants - the amazing, write-about-it-in-your-diary kind, or every other Thai place. The majority fit in the second category. However, that isn't a bad thing, because in my opinion you can rarely go wrong. Tuptim Thai is one of these second category restaurants. Good but not fantastic. It really wants to be better than it is, judging but the upscale decor, but just doesn't achieve it. My wife and I went here for a date night and the ambiance was great and the food was good but we never found anything that really reached in my happy place and tickled me (I had to wait until after dinner for that). We ordered 2 types of curry, panang and green, as well as the appetizer sampler. The food portions were just right but the prices were quite high considering it wasn't any better than any of the other cheap Thai places that offer similar cuisine for half the price. We definitely enjoyed our evening and I think the setting helped make the night more romantic but if you're just wanting good Thai food, I think you'll be just as satisfied with any other place on the map.

Came here last night with my husband and daughter for our 23rd wedding anniversary. We lucked out and arrived at the perfect time, about 1/2 hour later the place was packed. First impressions? Absolutely gorgeous inside and smells divine. Even the tables were dressed to the nines with place mats and fancy linen. We started off with the "Tuptim Puffs" as an appetizer - 5 fried wonton pockets stuffed with ground chicken, shrimp, peas and corn with a sweet and sour dipping sauce. They were quite tasty and the sauce was a pleasure, not the average hot pink and sickly sweet sauce you find in other places. We all tried something different. Daughter had the Cashew Nut Chicken, husband had the Pork Drunken Noodles and I had the Chicken Pad Thai. We were all very pleased. The veggies all were super fresh and crisp (the carrots in the Cashew Nut dish were cut into bird shapes) and the meat was flavorful and generous. All 3 of us brought 1/2 of our entrees home, the serving sizes were quite large. We were warned of a wait time due to all dishes being prepared to order, but were thrilled when the wait time was better than expected. This place is a bit pricy, but definitely worth it for the amount and quality you receive.
(4)Abbey M.
So far my favorite Thai restaurant in Jacksonville! My husband and I dine here for lunch whenever I have the day off. Their lunch prices are great! Certain entrees come with two mini spring rolls and a soup, which is great because you get to sample these items without having to plunge into ordering a full size. The soup is always nice and hot, I love this because I believe that the temperature in the restaurant is often a little cold. The spring rolls are also great. FOOD: Presentation is beautiful and the entrees come out with this exotic flower placed on the side.They have the option to get your entrees mild, medium, hot or Thai hot. We adore all things spicy so we both order Thai hot, but warning: your nose will run and you may tear up little but the food is delicious. Husband gets The Drunken Noodles with pork Thai spicy. He loves this dish! Another great thing about this place is they have vegetarian options: tofu or vegetables. I always order the tofu and I think its the best! ATMOSPHERE: I think it has a romantic feel. All of the guests talk with relatively low voices. The décor is beautiful. We always sit in a booth and though the booth is made of wood and not the most comfortable the back of the booth extends to just above your head so you don't necessary feel like anyone is sitting behind you. STAFF: Very friendly and helpful. Their is a tiny language barrier depending on who waits on you but for the most part I think they understand what you're saying they may just have a hard time explaining their answer. SUGGESTION: Get the Thai tea if you've never ordered it. It is a sweet tea with a heavy cream poured over ice and comes with a thick straw. DELICIOUS! I have tried to recreate this at home and I cannot. Also, if you are cold natured, like myself, bring a light jacket. The booths by the wall and windows are the most romantic.
(4)Sarah D.
I have to say I was very surprised with the quality of service and the food here. I went during lunch with a group of co workers for the first time today. We were greatly warmly and the inside is much bigger than I would have thought from the outside. I ordered the chicken pad Thai and was excited that it was only 7.95. Prior to getting our meals, we were served a noodle soup with cilantro and spring rolls at no additional charge. I was surprised at the free food with lunch at that price point. Even more surprising was the amount of food I got. I had so much that two thirds went home with me. I will also report it was just as good microwaved as it was the first time around. I think I found a new lunch spot and will be going back.
(5)Jim H.
My wife and I were trying to find a new place to try and found this via a review on Yelp. We were so glad to have found this place. The food is really delicious, the portions are ample, and the atmosphere is unique and perfect for what they are providing. The price for the food was very reasonable, especially at lunch. You won't be disappointed if you go here. It is one of the best Thai restaurants I have tried. Between their prices, the quality of the food, and the service I don't think you can get much better when looking for this type of food.
(5)Whitney A.
I tried this place the other day with co-workers. I had never had Thai food before until here. I ordered to pad Thai with chicken. The portion was large and the food was good. The egg rolls are phenomenal. I also ordered their crab Rangoon it was different but good. Over all, for a first time Thai food experience this place is pretty good.
(5)Jacob F.
I'm giving four stars for the quality of the food. The service was poor the night we were there but they were apologetic. I think it may just have been a rough night for them, though the place was not overly busy. We ordered Pad Thai with Chicken and Pad Prik with chicken. Both were well prepared with fresh ingredients. In Jacksonville, even that much can be hard to find. The flavoring and the spice level were good, not bland or overly spicy. We will visit again.
(4)William P.
Ordered take out. We had spring rolls, crab Rangoon, pad Thai, and drunken noodles. Everything was delicious and the food way ready very quickly. Highly recommend.
(4)Nicole D.
First off this was the best tasting Thai in Jax. The service and food was epic. We just moved here from Southern CA and SoCal has some amazing Thai!!! My husband and I ordered the Tom Kah (coconut soup.) The flavor was was very good. I could taste the coconut as well as some of the native Thai ingredients. Our soup came with chicken and it was perfectly fitting for the delish broth. On a scale from 1-10 i would give it a 7. Next we got two appitizers the calamari and the crab rangoon. The calamari was crispy but not overly fried. Also, the calamari itself wasnt rubbery It is hard to come by a perfectly cooked squid ring :) i would give the diah a 6. The crab rangoon was different it wasnt exactly what i was expecting when it comes to a crab rangoon but it was satifying. If you order this any expectations should be thrown out the window. From what it seems they use real crab and curry! Its a different taste but it is still really good. I would give it an 8. Our main dish was Pad-see-ew with beef. Ive tried thia dish at other places but this seems to be the best one. The ingredients tasted fresh and the noodles were cooked perfectly! This dish seemed to be really saucy but it was just enough for the noodle/beef ratio. It seemed to lack something but i was very pleased with the taste! I would give it 8. My husband got the Thai iced tea and i wasnt a fan it was VERY sweet! The service was great the man who took our order was patient and very quick with our drinks and food. An elder lady came to our table and to see how we were doing. I told her the food was good and that we will be coming back. She was great and the place was clean I am full and happy!
(5)Aaron C.
I've visited here a few times, on both occasions I ordered the drunken noodles. Tuptim is definitely a solid choice for a consistently great taste.
(4)M G.
Very tasty, not the best Thai I've ever had but the best I've had in Jax.
(3)Greg M.
This is my favorite Thai restaurant in Jacksonville. I'm giving it five stars based upon the food that Jacksonville has to offer which is hard for me to do because I have spent a few months all over Thailand. The people there are very friendly, courteous and respectful. The ambience is very serene, cute and has nice woodwork that gives a very distinct Thai feel on the inside of this strip mall restaurant. Don't be fooled by the exterior. They do it right.
(5)Win R.
Average thai food. Nice family service. Served soggy likely to wok not hot enough.
(3)Vince G.
Thanks to my job I am constantly moving which means I am always trying to find "go to" restaurants where I can satisfy my ethnic food cravings. Having been previously living in L.A I had almost given up hope on finding a decent Thai place in Jacksonville until I stumbled upon Tuptim. The service was fast and friendly and the food was by far the best Thai I had tried in Jax. Check this place out if you love Pad Thai as much as I do.
(4)Lucas J.
Went in for lunch one day and was pleasantly surprised the food was fresh and came out in a timely manner I enjoyed the atmosphere and the prices were fair. I enjoyed the food but wouldn't drive out of my way for it. My only negative about the place would be that it wasn't busy yet the waitresses still didn't keep my drink full or check on is enough I still left happy and would go again if I was in the area.
(3)Laurie D.
So happy that a horrible traffic jam made me reevaluate my commute home and I stopped at Tuptim Thai for dinner! After a grueling thirty minutes of going nowhere on 17, I was pleasantly surprised to enter the Oasis of Tuptim Thai. I loved the decor of the restaurant immediately. I was seated in a comfortable booth with beautiful table linens. I ordered the Pad See Ew with shrimp, which is noodles with a sweet brown sauce and vegetables. It was little too sweet for my taste but it was delicious. It was definitely made with fresh ingredients. Tuptim Thai also had three long very private booths, that look like they would be ideal for a celebratory lunch or dinner. The restaurant was very empty the weeknight I was there, but it did seem to do a very steady takeout business.
(4)Vycki J.
This exquisite restaurant has changed my opinion of Thai food in Jacksonville. Care and quality was apparent in every detail. The Duck Panang was extraordinary and the Tom Yum Soup was delicious! Definitely going back and recommending this place to my family and friends.
(5)Shari K.
Food great Service was awesome
(4)Terri P.
Wonderful always we've been there many times and have never been disappointed. I wish they delivered :)
(5)Jim L.
Very good food and service. Great value. I like the lunch specials although they would not swap out the chicken soup for a clear the food was good. A bit salty but delicious I will be back
(4)Angela D.
The atmosphere is beautiful. The thai tea was so tasty. I wanted a curry that wasn't on the menu and they offered to make it! It was very good. I really enjoy this place. They are reasonably priced.
(4)Tony K.
The food and service was fantastic, would definitely recommend this restaurant if you love authentic Thai food...I give them three thumbs up!
(5)Lai S.
Good food good lunch specials sometimes their sauce is overwhelming because they put too much.. But never nasty.. I would like to rate them. 3 1/2 unfortunately it isn't possible.. Their soup that comes with each meal is good so is their fried spring roll I would say their appetizers are a bit pricey for the size and amount.. My husband and I eat here often because its down the st from NAS JAX
(3)Joel V.
I can't complain about the wait staff. They were good. The new shrimp roll appetizer I had was good. The Thai Iced Tea was just like any other good one out there. The Chicken Pad See Ew (my favorite Thai dish ever ever) was either a black sheep mistake or the cook uses almost triple the flavor ingredients to make their particular Pad See Ew dish compared to others. It was just unenjoyable. Skip that dish and try something else if you do come. Oh, the prices here should probably be listed as "$" rather than "$$." Sad Pad See Ew fan, out.
(3)Matt M.
Okay, this is not too far from my office so I went there when it was first opened and was not very impressed. But today I went back and what a difference a few months made. Service was attentive, but not rushed and the food was outstanding! Met a friend for lunch and he started with Crab Rangoon and he was delighted with his choice. With lunch you get a cup of noodle soup and a small crispy spring roll. The spring roll was "eh", but the soup was surprisingly good and I took it all the way down to last drop. For our entree, my table mate had Pad Thai with a side of Satay Sauce, while I had Thai Fried Rice with shrimp. Both got high marks, as did refilling of water and tea and a simple request for additional napkins. Glad I gave it another try and what a difference it made. By the way, I would probably give it a 3.5, just because the ambiance was not as good as other Thai restaurants in the area, but the food quality made rounding up an easy task.
(4)Jeanne D.
This was a wonderful dining experience that I can't wait to repeat. I had the Tofu Pad Thai and it was superb. The tofu was seasoned expertly and the vegetables were of high quality and a very generous quantity. The sauce was just right, spicy and not too hot nor too sweet. The decor of this restaurant is beautiful, I felt like I was transported from a common little strip mall to an elegant place in Thailand. I would advise you not to sit between the door and the takeout counter (if you can avoid it) because this restaurant does a lot of takeout orders and the constant walking in and out of takeout patrons is distracting when you are concentrating on a great meal! This restaurant is hard to find, it is just north of the Naval Air Station on US 17 (Roosevelt Boulevard) and is in the same strip mall as the Hurricane restaurant. I think, if you like Thai food, that you will find it is worth checking out for yourself.
(4)Tron C.
Been here a couple of times for lunch, the food is pretty good and the prices are very reasonable. The décor is traditional and the wait staff is polite.
(4)Jeffrey W.
I come here for dinner often enough that most of the servers know me. The food is always nicely presented and tasty. I try not to get the same thing every time I go, but some of my favorites are the Gan Garee Curry, Pad Thai, Drunken Noodles, and the Amazing. The servers are always very polite and attentive. Prices are very reasonable. Most of the dishes are around $10 give or take, with your choice of chicken, beef, or shrimp, and the portions are quite generous. They have some other more pricey entrees, but I've actually never tried them. If you're in the area, I recommend this place.
(4)Jeff S.
Wonderful decor and authentic thai food! I didn't have 1 complaint.
(4)Charles J.
I used to love this place. The food is amazing and it comes fast. However, for the past few months the experience has gone downhill. Aparaentely the young man and his wife have begun to bring their baby to work with them and the baby runs all over the restaurant screaming. One of the waitresses carries the baby while trying to take orders from customers, which everyone knows this is not possible. If this was not bad enough, the baby was placed on the counter by the father and the baby began to run around on the counter where food for to go is placed. The mother was feeding the baby while the baby was running on top of the tables and counter. And the worst of it was the young waitress screaming like a madman while chasing the baby throughout the isles of the dining room. I have been patient over the past few months as I dine here all the time, however, as much as I love the food, not sure me or my friends will be coming here again. Screaming babies, babies walking ontop of tables and counters where people eat and food is placed and the worst screaming waitresses playing with babies in a fully seated restaurant. I have never seen a mother and father allow such a thing in a place of business.
(1)E M.
My husband and I stopped here for lunch and had a very enjoyable meal. Servers are attentive and friendly. Food was excellent.
(4)William S.
Very good food. Great Service and very comfortable dining experience. Very good value.
(4)Chuck F.
I think this Thai place is as good a value as anywhere in Jax. I wish it were closer to Riverside/Avondale, but hopefully we can keep them in business (unlike 3 previous Thai places in the vicinity). The super-spicy stuff REALLY is super-spicy (but evidently it's great according to my wife and sis-in-law). Other big hits are "The Amazing" and the Pad Thai is on par or superior to most I've had. NOTE: was told Pad Thai didn't have fish sauce, but have now been told it does...so it's not vegetarian evidently.
(4)Chad L.
This might be one of the closest places to get Thai food if you live around Riverside and Avondale and the food is great. This is an authentic thai restaurant with a lot of vegetarian options. I would recommend their Massaman Curry.
(5)Nathan T.
The ambient was good, the hostesses were friendly. I ordered Tom Yum Shrimp but it didn't taste like Tom Yum at all. It was missing lemon grass flavor and many other ingredients to be the true Tom Yum. I also ordered Pad Thai chicken. The dish looked and smelled great. Took a first bite and I was surprised how good it tasted but the noodle was too chewy. I asked the hostesses and they both replied that the noodle was supposed to be like that. Living in Los Angeles and near Thai Town I know pad thai noodle is not supposed to be that chewy. 3 stars for good services and tasty food.
(3)Bingle W.
The décor in this place is Thai to the nth level. I'm talking wood paneling, sequined elephant wall hangings, carved wood booths with silky pillows, and you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a bamboo plant. It's a visual overload. And the Thai really know how to pick out a mango. Every authentic Thai restaurant I've been to have the best damn mangos in their sticky rice desserts. It could be the dead of freakin' winter and the mangos are always in season and taste like they've just been picked from a tree growing in some tropical, summer climate. What is up with that? Okay, so the mangos are good, the decoration is seizure-inducing, and the panang curry will burn your lips off. And that's a little weird, because I didn't ask for additional heat and the menu said that all of the dishes are prepared mild unless told otherwise and it didn't have a little picture of a chili pepper next to the dish on the menu. So, either they thought, "Eh... she looks Asian. She can handle it" and snuck in some atomic peppers into the curry or they lied. Also ordered were the tuptim puffs (kind of a cross between a fried wonton and lumpia) which were okay and the pad khing which tasted like every other pad khing I've ever had, and the tom kha gai which was overloaded with uncooked red onions. The presentation was nice. Oh, and instead of mints, they gave out tamarind candy with the check and that just made my day. By the way, if you're tall, I would not recommend sitting at the booths because the tables are pretty low and the benches are pretty high, so you'll be doubled over eating your food.
(3)Carol B.
Love this place! Only negative is that it's not totally consistent. There are definitely times the food is outstanding and the next time it will be just okay.
(4)F W.
Best thai food in Jacksonville. I have been going here for years, and LOVE the food. My only complaint is the music. They seem to play the same three instrumental songs over and over again every time I am there. Helpful tip: they do take-out orders. "The Amazing" is... AMAZING!
(5)Katherine M.
Today, my family took my mom out for Mother's Day to Tuptim Thai on Roosevelt, and it was such a lovely experience, I actually felt like I owned THEM something- which leads me to writing this awesome review. It is quaint but elegant with friendly service. The atmosphere is gorgeous and relaxed. The food is delicious and the price is reasonable. My mom commented on how detail oriented they are with everything and I would have to agree. From the intricately carved wood wall decorations to the crafted rose made from vegetables that adorn every plate- this place puts a lot of work in giving every customer an experience that makes them feel like they stepped into their own Thai paradise.
(4)Beth W.
I love Tuptim Thai. I am usually not a Thai food fan but I get the Amazing every time I go and enjoy it so much I never want to try anything else! The staff and service are very good and the meal comes with soup, a spring roll, and the main dish so is a fair bit of food. The peanut sauce is great.
(5)D Y.
Step in to Tuptim Thai and be greeted by a warm 'Sawadee-ka' as one of the friendly staff takes you to your table. Decor was of carved rosewood and rich silk tablecloths that gives one a feel of being somewhere near the orient. Menu has an ample selection of traditional items. My friend and I went during lunch. She ordered the pineapple fried rice and I got a #1 heat factor (closest to wuss as one can get besides a zero but still up for a tiny flavor challenge). The lunch prices are very affordable!! Our server brought us each a soup and a tightly wrapped spring roll about the size of a chapstick dispenser with sauce. This was, of course, a 'teaser' if you ask me, since they were GONE in less than 60 seconds! Both lunch dishes looked great with it's floral-like garnish made of carrots and thin strings of beet. The fried rice was delish! But the Pad Thai noodles were just slightly overcooked to the point they were a little too stuck together. The #1 heat factor was mild and I think this wuss could have gone to 2. I also had a Thai milk tea. If you've never had one, you should try it once. It's also good with Boba balls, but unfortunately, they do not have the boba tapioca balls. Decor, service and Thai milk tea, spring rolls & fried rice get a 4, while I give the Pad Thai a 2. And that's because if the overcooked noodles.
(3)Olivia T.
I drove around forever trying to find this place because they just switched names-again. The cashew tofu came in a thick, oily, brown sauce-does NOT come recommended. I can't find cashew stir fries anywhere in jax, it's always a let-down because it's my favorite thai dish. The tofu was -as one reviewer previously described-watery and oily. The spring roll that came with lunch was good and a nice touch. Meh. Nothing really stood out as great.
(2)Hung D.
Party of 6 for lunch. We eat Thai every where we go. Traveling thru Jax. Excellent meal. One of the best Thai. Portion very generous considering Thai & not take out Chinese. My daughter always order Pad Thai & said this was the best because of sauce & quality chicken meat. My other daughter ordered the Green Curry, something she always get. It was the best - just spicey enough, not too much coconut milk, fresh vegetables with both reg eggplant & Thai eggplant, quality Jasmine rice, again quality meat. Pineapple fried rice was very unique. My other daughter scraped every bites of the plate. Very authentic. Love it. Too bad not in Augusta GA. We also have eaten at the Tuptim Thai in Brunswick, also owned by same lady. Also good.
(5)Victor A.
The food was amazing and the service was fast!
(5)Jennifer P.
LOVE their lunch. Haven't gone for dinner yet, but I expect it's the same great food maybe just bigger portions... which by the way, are already pretty huge. They also get an A+ for presentation. I love the heart shaped Rice on the plate. You can reasonably have a satisfying lunch here for around $10 INCLUDING a decent tip. You get miso soup, a spring roll, and you lunch special (with your choice of protein) for $7. Add a drink and a $2 tip and you maybe splurged back $10 after tax. Very reasonable. Great Flavors. Only issue is parking. They are in the same lot as Tijuana Flats, a Drive through BBQ place (which is also YUMMY), and some other chain establishment. So lunchtime parking can be dicey.
(4)Yvette S.
Food great and atmosphere great...excellent way to do lunch and escape from the world for just a moment
(5)Lauren K.
This was my 4th time at Tuptim Thai and everytime I go it is excellent! I especially enjoy the Red Curry. I had it with Shrimp this time and it was delicious! My boyfriend loves the Massaman Curry Beef! They always have a nice plate presentation and service is always with a smile and pleasant. Tonight they gave us a complimentary little fried banana spring roll dessert. I thought that was really nice! The decor is elegant and a great place to take a date!
(4)Ali B.
Love it here. the food is good the service excellent and there are always leftovers!
(4)Gregor V.
My favorite Thai in Jacksonville. It's in a strip mall but they've done a lot of work for an authentic experience on the inside. The food is reasonably priced and the service is very effective and quick.
(5)Michael A.
If you are looking for a quick place to grab some Thai food, this place might be the place for you. I have not been there for dinner but only for the lunch hours, and I must say that the place is never too busy. So, the service is really good being some of the few customers there. The people are nice and friendly too. For someone like me who enjoys super spicy thai food and may need their water refilled a lot, the waitress is always there for you! They have a wide selection of thai dishes that are standard for your everyday thai restaurants. My favorite thai dish is "thai-hot" red curry. Compared to other thai restaurants that I have visited, the curry here isn't the best. A few times the curry seems like it is breaking and not consistent. Also, they will sometimes make the curry unexpectedly too sweet! My favorite appetizers here are the satay chicken and the crab rangoon. Besides the quick and friendly service, the food is OK.
