What People Are Saying About Pukk

In Short – White subway tiles cover the floor and the walls of this narrow restaurant, which builds on the clean look with translucent chairs and green light effects. Most distinctive, though, is the all-vegetarian Thai menu. Market-fresh soups, noodles and curries are rounded out by veggies, tofu and various mushrooms, as well as the kitchen's high-quality renditions of duck, chicken and beef. Low prices and a lunch special add to the appeal.

Consistently delicious and beautifully prepared
by yippee
This is one of my go-to spots. I can always just pop-in, and have never had a problem getting seated right away. The food is delicious, relatively cheap, and beautifully presented. And the decor is "cool". Service is just "fine"....nothing particularly great.
- Pros: food quality and presentation
- Cons: none
