Delicious food and great service, with fantastic views out to Kapiti Island. We will definitely be back.

Went last week with 5 friends. Customer Service non existent. One person didn't receive entree order! Ordered two bottles of wine. Glasses dumped at front of table, not in front of each guest! On both occassions wine left unopened and no glasses poured. $50 meal no service!
Restaurant replied staff learning!
Well l paid top money for no service,
don't consider answer acceptable. Will NEVER return! Been to lots of cafes and restaurants, see all my reviews, never ever had such lousy service! Extremely disappointed as only Christmas function and certainly not cheap.

Enjoyed the food and it's quality. Great views upstairs on a beautiful evening. When downstairs seating and garden area sort out the restaurant should be a doozy!

Very ordinary. Very bland. Very expensive. Very disappointing.
We had three dishes. Chicken with cashew nuts, beef salad and fried rice. None had any flavor. This is what I would expect ordering Thai food from a Chinese takeaway.

We collected takeaway meals for the first time tonight. Spectacularly good food, friendly staff, fair prices. Really, really good. I could not recommend Tuk Tuk Waimea highly enough. Fantastic!

Helpful service, beautiful food cooked to taste. It was very busy the night we were there and we had to wait for our food but the company was good and the food worth waiting for.

Sat out in the garden. I had the wagu beef burger and it was scrumtious. Great staff are always friendly and helpful.

Enjoyable and peaceful atmosphere and unique food options. We took an overseas guest who, of course, ordered the fish and chips dinner, which suited him. The mains menu is limited to only 6 entries, and perhaps a bit high priced, but the quality is definitely there.

Not the Waimea of old! What happened to the pizza (used to be hand made not pre-brought cardboard bases) and the restaurant had a really nice menu.as our local place i miss the old Waimea!

Excellent eggs Benedict with a beautiful lemony hollandaise sauce. The calamari was also very good, and staff and service was excellent.

We were there for our marriage and the service was top notch and the food was beautiful.

Would recommend it for wedding and social events

Always a pleasant experience with warm and welcoming staff. Great selection of beers and mega portions of crackling.

Delicious food and great service. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch here with friends.
Perhaps just ensure you are fully stocked up on dairy and gluten alternatives for busy days, they had run out of almond milk and were unsure if they had enough gluten free bread

Burgers were very very dry. Macaroni cheese was okay. Food came out quickly and staff were polite, a bit over formal. Priced well above what we all expected to pay for portion size and overall quality.

Terrible experience booked a table were put with a massive party of teenagers that was incredibly loud. Was told they were too busy to do anything about it as they had lost our booking. Badly run very disorganized possibly changed owners as not how we remembered it. Ruined our evening.

3 plus stars. Reason for that is because the service was a bit slow, the garlic bread had such a small amount of butter that we had had to ask for more. The meal? It was excellent.

Fantastic food, creative cocktails, stunning service, great views out to Kapiti Island. Really enjoyed our meal, and impressed with the staff drinks recommendations - they even swapped our drinks when the cocktail we ordered wasn't to our taste. Will be going back soon.

Pretty average steak. And the mash had a strange artificial texture and taste. Staff friendly. Nice location and nice surroundings. Have been there for lunch and that was better. But dinner not worth it

Went here for breakfast for my partner and my anniversary. We didn't make a booking, and they were pretty busy, but they promptly set up a table for us! We had a table upstairs with a view over the ocean out to Kapiti Island, a treat! Service was wonderful, thorough, and friendly, food was great, and we loved the creative and well brought together interior decor.
A beautiful start to our anniversary day
