Short staffed but told us before so we could make our decision to stay or not.. I like that. Gorgeous outdoor weather. Nice server. Would go back? Yes
Spring rolls are next level, pork Pad Thai was incredible. Larb was stellar. The cocktails are all fun and perfect for patio dining on the fox.
Management can fix this before its too late. Venue is maybe best in Green Bay on the Fox River with big deck. Thai food selection is more than adequate. Service was slow, uninformed and didn't care. The bar was full and playing loud games of bar dice (probably manager), which is fine but probably not attentive to rest of operation. Bar was out of Jim Beam, which might tip you off, probably 1 of 8 must have liquors to run a successful bar. There were maybe 6-7 tables with customers on the deck, our order took 50 minutes to make it to table. The food was outstanding, some of the best we've had. All 3 of us really enjoyed the food. With a little attention and training this could be a 5 star venue.
Really like their food. But... we have been there many times and very tired of receiving bad service. Went in to get some food to go tonight, bartender (whom is also the owner, I am told) walked by my daughter and I 4x and did not acknowledge that we were sitting there waiting for service. I do not expect immediate service, but we were not even acknowledged.
We arrived to Nuk's when they opened on Friday night and were greeted right away and taken to a table with a view of the river. The restaurant itself is beautiful and despite the signs of being short staffed in the kitchen after a brief wait, not too long at all, we received our meals and they were both beautiful and very flavorful. We ordered the Tom Kha Gai and Tom Yum soups with some egg rolls as an appetizer. My favorite was the flavor of the Tom Yum. The Tom Kha was very good but was sweeter than some I've tried before. My husband tried the Laab and I had the red curry. Both were delicious and very good sized portions. The only downside was I really wanted some of the Tom Yum soup to go since we aren't from the area but the server told me due to being short staffed she didnt think the cook would fill the order and unfortunately I wasn't able to place the order. I was hoping to get some to go because we are out of town for my husband's birthday and are on a much needed night out from our little ones! It would have been nice to have the soup for a late night snack or for the next day before we head home. Otherwise we had a great experience and would recommend it to others and return the next time we are in town.
I love Thai food and have yet to find a place except Taste of Thai in Appleton that ranks 5 stars for me. This place is excellent! Delicious curry and mussels, creative drinks and absolutely fantastic service. Everything about this restaurant exceeded my expectations and I haven’t said that about food or service in a long time. I only wish more people tried it. We will now frequently venture to DePere for food here. Mmmmm!!!
Absolutely delicious from the drinks to the food, made our date night a wonderful success and cant wait to go back again!
YOU HAVE TO MAKE YOUR WAY TO THIS LOCATION ASAP. I tried their green curry the other day and it was marvelous. It was very smooth to call and get my order taken care of quickly. When you drive up to this spot you will probably think to yourself, "Gee this is an odd location to have a restaurant." But I promise you that you will feel safe and sound once you step inside and have their great foods. I will be returning very soon.
I felt the need to do a full review on this restaurant. NUK’S THAI CUISINE. The relaxed ambience created a mood that gave us the sense we were in for a stress- LESS evening. The decorations were beautiful with lighting that would create a romantic setting. The staff made sure we were comfortable. Allergies were accommodated at the beginning of the reservation. Nuk and Mert were amazing along with the gracious young waitress, Cyanna. We loved it here and the decor was beautiful!!Now for the food!!!! All the food was delicious from the appetizing egg rolls to the beautifully displayed entrees. All of us loved the food. We also loved the service. The presentation of the food was similarly done like an upscaled cruise. The view of the water was so gorgeous my husband insisted on coming back and eating on the deck as soon as the weather warmed up. All the food was cooked fresh and what was amazing our order was served within a very reasonable length of time. We cannot wait to go back and bring our friends. This is my second time eating Thai food. The first time was at a different restaurant. I am so happy that I tried NUKs.The professionalism displayed by this establishment was above and beyond! If I could take Nuk and Mert’s professionalism and bottle it and sell it, I would become a wealthy woman.We will be going back soon. We loved it!!!The only regret I have about this restaurant is that I did not know about it sooner.
Ordered takeout on a chilly January day. We were really craving Thai and this was one of the few places open on a Sunday.For appetizers we got the egg rolls, spring rolls, and Tom kha gai soup. Egg rolls were good and fried well, still crisp when we got them home. Spring rolls were the weirdest thing, served sliced into 3 pieces and drowned in peanut sauce and crushed peanuts. I LOVE these kind of fresh rolls but all I could taste was lettuce and peanut. I deconstructed one to find a tiny scrap of chicken in the greens and some thin as a whisker sprouts. Not bad per se but definitely a letdown when I'm used to whole rolls that you can control the sauce and get a good balance of crisp veggies and tender meats in each bite.The Tom kha...uhhhh. The only word is SWEET. SO SWEET. Like they used sweetened coconut milk from the coffee shop and coconut cream and some palm sugar. Had it not had veggies in it I would've thought it was a watery coconut pudding. There was no lime, no galangal, no heat, no fish sauce. That's my favorite soup and I was thoroughly disappointed.My cousin got the shrimp pad Thai which had perfectly cooked shrimp but it was very dry. Tasty but everything congealed together since there wasn't enough sauce to keep it separate. Also no fresh bean sprouts or anything green (scallion, cilantro) so it was a tan, peanut encrusted lump of noodle and egg with some perfect shrimp.Her boyfriend wanted the curry sampler but we were told they don't do that for takeout anymore due to packaging issues. Fair. So he got the red veggie curry and the spicy basil fried rice without meat. Curry was fine. The rice however is the one thing I would go back for. It had a nice kick to it and lots of veggies so it wasn't just rice with bits of egg. It was the perfect level of moisture too.My red chicken curry was fine. Had a nice bit of heat. But nothing to write home about.The location is odd, down near the water and absolutely an old supper club. You walk in to a big empty room with a few lounge-style chairs, there's a big, dark wood bar. There's a brighter seating area toward the water and a nice looking deck and another room off to the side that might be for larger parties? Though honestly the only thing that distinguishes it from a supper club in looks were the Buddha statues here and there.All in all, probably not a repeat visit since I'm not in the area that often.
