Good food and atmosphere. Decent size servings. It’ll be better if rice is included with these stir fry n curry dishes as you cannot have it on its own.

2 people ate dinner. We had no booking. Entrees were duck & pork dumplings and Tom Yum soup. Entrees were well presented, tasty & filling. Mains we’re Pad Thai & Massman Curry. Presentation was excellent, the service was brilliant and the taste was scrummy. Tusk is well worth a visit if your looking for a good value Thai meal. We’ll be back.

I found this place because of groupon. I bought a voucher there for $25 and we can spend it up to $40 and just pay the rest of the excess amount.
We were welcomed nicely although the lady who told us that our booking was at 5:30 and not 6:00 even when we clarified to the guy on the phone that we changed it to 6:00 so they should communicate better about the bookings.
We ordered their chicken pad thai and sizzling beef and mojito for our drink. Sadly they said they couldn't serve us any cocktails but thats okay. No biggie. The food was served within 10-15 minutes and it was nice and hot! So good job for the fast service even though there were a few tables :) the sizzling beef was full of flavour and we really enjoyed it and the quantity of the beef was generous. The pad thai tasted fine, it didn't really suit my taste. The servers were attentive and kept on checking on us if we were fine.

When we paid, the guy behind the counter was enthusiastic and explained us the bill before charging us. He also gave us a $10 voucher to spend on food and drinks. Thank you, Tusk! We will be back soon.

The service is excellent. The wait staff are quick, attentive and friendly. The dining atmosphere is much quieter in comparison to other restaurants in this area. It's perfect if you wNt something more intimate. The lighting is a bit dim, so at time it was difficult to see the food.

The food is your usual Thai food. The Green curry was delicious and a good sized portion. The chicken larb was satisfactory, I felt like it needed a bit more toasted rice to give that signature larb flavour. The satay skewers were tender and tasty. The sticky rice was cooked to perfection.

Great Thai restaurant. Service is second to none and most of the food is tasty.

They do my favourite curry puff in Auckland and the flaming chicken is awesome.

The best of Thai and Auckland meet in this restaurant! We started with the spring rolls which were crispy and fresh. I had chicken cashew nuts which my husband was begging to share with me, and he had the lamb massamun curry served with a mound of rice. Everything was delicious in its own right with the rice amount of spice. Extremely reasonable prices, we will definately be back.

My second most favorite place for Thai food. The pricing is good for their generous portions. Plenty of meat in the dishes. We popped in for an early dinner so the service was great as it wasn't very busy. The owner was present and was happy to do a Groupon deal with a discount of $20 on the total bill. Only downside was they seemed to have the A-list pop song album on from Apple, the explicit version. Not the best mood setting atmosphere. Felt like I was in a club lol. 4/5 overall.

It was our first time visiting this place. Somehow we did not have much expectation on this this.
We went on Saturday late night where the place was fulled. Nice atmosphere, lovely staff and most of all the food tasted really great.
We ordered grilled chicken and whole snapper fish.
We were quiet impressed with the price, value and taste of the dishes. We will definitely come back soon!

Beautiful deco and ample parking available. Tusk has been our local Thai restaurant for over 10 years. The service is great and the food is delicious. The red curry is one of my faves and the seafood soup is great to share. Heaps of different seafood in a spicy broth. Great to go with a group.

A regular diner at this beautiful thai place. It is located in the central Auckland city just 10-15 minutes drive from city centre.

Staff is always accomodating interactive and lovely with service.

Food is soo good, we love their entrées and mains; but never tried the desserts.

The prices are fairly good too.

Should try if you have craving for some hearty thai meal.

The food over here is really good.
The staff are super friendly!
I had a red beef curry medium hot it wasn't that hot compared to other Thai restaurants.
The place was packed when i dined in!
They have alcohol too.
Ps: you need a beer with Thai food can bring the heat down ha ha.
I would def go there again.
Compared to the other places in dominion road the prices are wee bit high but the service and the less wait time for your meal it makes that part reasonable

This is the only place I eat larb because they don't add much coriander and i don't like coriander. the quality of their food is really good, the place is clean and a little bit to the fancier side and the prices aren't too bad as well.

Tusk has been a stalwart on D Rd since the last millennium, and I remember it being trendy from way back when it was one of the first funky upmarket Asian places to set up in the area! Still a beautiful restaurant somehow incorrectly implanted into the surrounding melee that makes up the Dominion Rd food scene, with quite a tasty menu to keep any amateur diner happy. Definitely worth a visit if you are a fan of Thai!

Went to tusk tonight for a birthday dinner with family. Was a last minute plan and glad we did end up booking because it was quite busy even for a tuesday night! 

Between the 4 of us we ordered 3 platters: the seafood, soft shell crab and the sizzling chicken. Just a note that these are SIZZLING platters rather than a platter - something we found out after seeing the portion sizing. The seafood platter was the dish of concern considering it was quite expensive for the size, but it certainly did make up for it flavour-wise. The chicken was lovely, not as flavoursome as the other two dishes but was a good experience to see the chicken cooked in brandy and then lit on fire. The soft shell crab was the highlight for me, was a reasonable portion size and was delicious. Had a nice sauce to it and the crunchy texture of the fried shell was great. We did order two serves of jasmine rice, but didn't really need it as none of the dishes came with much sauce/curry to eat it with. 

I think what has stopped me from giving Tusk a better review was the service tonight. They were quite bad in terms of not giving us plates before food arrived, not asking the level of spice for our food (also our mistake as we forgot till our food came and it was mild) and just overall aspects of dining that you see at other places (asking how food was, whether anything was needed etc. I think having a large group seated near by did play a part in this - and must have flustered staff a little bit.

It makes me hungry just thinking about coming back here. The curries are delicious, and my favourite dish, the tempura prawns is done very well. Great, friendly service and I love the warmth of the fireplace. An excellent choice for Thai in the middle of town. We've already made our return booking for fathers day.

We had a very pleasant dining experience here recently. We ordered the Yellow curry and Ginger fish from the Bigger plates share menu. Both were very delicious and the curry had a generous amount of vegetables and chicken to sauce. The interior of the restaurant was delightful and the wait staff were very attentive. Keen to return and try more for the menu.

We went last night after the movies. Staff initially attentive. The meal was first rate, no complaints there, however no one came and asked us part way through our meal if everything was OK, and it was a long time after we had finished our mains that we were offered the dessert menu. Thanks carpet also felt very sticky underfoot. We will go back but will wait a while as there are so many s.all cafes around the Balmoral area that we want to try first.

Look, we all know the food here isn't comparable to authentic Thai food in Thailand, or at classier upmarket fusion asian restaurants here in Auckland. But they don't try to compete with that. Tusk offers great tasting dishes, wide variety, and fantastic service that is second to none. 

Tusk frequently have voucher deals online, and we have taken up on these offers multiple times now and we'll keep coming back. The amount of food that you can get under these is incredible, and it's usually enough to pack some up, take home and have for lunch the next day (where between two people). Many places offer vouchers for sale and then aren't happy about accepting them - not here. They treat you just as well as any of their other diners, the food is brought out promptly, and available menu options are well explained. 

Low level mood lighting in the restaurant makes this a nice dinner date venue.

Place looks uninviting from outside but quite pleasant inside,spacious and sophisticated atmosphere. Food was reasonably priced. I only came here as I got a voucher off groupon but would definitely come back for the good service and great food! The cracklings to start looked boring but they had a very tasty dipping sauce that came with it. Soft shell crabs were amazing and a big helping for the price,too much sauce overpowered the crab taste but it was still delicious! The deep fried banana ball desserts was a great way to end the meal with a variety of different flavours with fruits and ice cream it was enough for two people.

We went on a Friday night with a Groupon and were very happily surprised. The service was spot on and very professional with a big Thai smile. Our two platters (Rumb and Chicken and mango curry) were just amazing and probably the best Thai I ever had outside of Thailand. Very refined and flavorful.  The place is well decorated and has private parking at the back. 

2 little points to work on were the appetizers, as they were not too special and the reservation system where you have to go back to the website to see if you reservation is confirmed.

Overall a very good experience and we are happy to pay the full price next time!!

I came here for a group BYO on a relatively busy Friday night. I liked the decor, traditional touches without being over the top. The staff were very friendly but we did have to ask multiple times for water and ice buckets. 
Our food was brought out very quickly, I had chicken pad thai (one of my favourites) and it was great. good portion size with lots of peanuts and sprouts on the side. 
We were seated in he back area, which was quite isolated from the rest of the restaurant and some music would have been greatly appreciated.
Tusk was fine for a casual BYO but there are much better Thai restaurants around Auckland.

A friend of me recommended this place and it wasn't disappointing. We ordered Thai fried rice with chicken larb and chicken satay (typical). The rice was very good and the chicken dishes were nice too. Reasonably priced and quantity was fine.

Very polite wait staff, we ordered extra rice dish just when it was closing time and she still managed to get that order.

I went to Tusk tonight with my partner we had the fried spring rolls and chicken satay to start, both dishes were very tasty but took a bit too long to come out ( I think the waitress may have forgotten to put our order through). Our mains came just after we had finished our starters, they looked small but were actually a good size. The massaman curry looked and tasted good, the lamb had a great depth of flavour. My partners black pepper tofu was also good ( so I'm told.. I just can't do tofu !).

Tusk is a Thai restaurant, one In the market of almost 30-40 restaurants along the dominion road in Balmoral. While most others seem run of the mill places, tusk seems a touch above them with comfortable seating and good decor. Service is really prompt and quick. Food was good and definitely worth coming back but portions were a little small. We ordered chicken satay, chicken pad thai noodles, chicken red curry and chilly pepper chicken. The chilly pepper chicken is hot so a warning for those with mild taste. Could not attach the pic of the chicken satay as we ate it as soon as it was served..sign of a true foodie, eh?!!

We had a lovely dinner at Tusk Thai restaurant last night. Like every other Thai restaurant, the interior was well-furnished and service was impeccable. Between the 2 of us, we had 4 entrées and 2 main dishes to share. The entrées were beautifully presented but lacked a bit of flavour. I really looked forward to the fish goujon which was meant to have a hint of wasabi flavour. It definitely impressed me visually but I could only taste the thick, bland batter coatinf the fish which I could barely taste. That being said, I loved the scallops and their pork and shrimp crackers-savoury with a touch of acidity brought in by the pineapples!

For main dishes we had the chicken "drunken" noodles and a beef red curry. The noodles were quite oily and heavily seasoned but the curry was really tasty.

Overall the atmosphere was nice, waiting time between the entrées and mains wasn't long and we had a good dinner for the price we paid.

Came with a pretty good voucher. Walked in, sat down and went through the ordering process. After 20mins or so duty manager mentioned that we couldn't use vouchers unless we booked (fair enough, was on t's and c's). However we began to leave and duty manager allowed us to have the same deal for a cash price (good service on their part) so all was well. For starters, we got curry puffs, pork crackers things, wok tossed veggies and chicken satay. Cost around $7 each and they were small for restaurant standards. Very tasty though. Our mains came, ginger fish and also a massamun curry. Both the meals were delicious, but the curry was very small indeed( the pics make the food seem bigger) I know thai restaurants that serve double for a similar price. Overall, great service, quick and tasty food but the serving size is a little small.

I've walked past Tusk so many times every time I eat on Dominion Road. When I went in with a group of friends, we sat in the back which was like kinda outside but sheltered? The service was friendly and attentive. We ordered the flaming chicken, sizzling beef, a chicken curry, Tom yum soup and another appetizer between us. The food was actually pretty decent! I was pleasantly surprised.

Since then I've been back and tried the BBQ duck curry and a another chicken dish! Both of which I enjoyed. The inside of the restaurant is slightly cramped though, and it is usually busy on the nights i dine in (or walk past). I will definitely be back!

Came on a busy night - the service however was very good and staff were attentive. It was my first time here and I can't say the food was anything special. Would say cost is actually about $90-100 for 2 people when considering food (starter, main + drinks) rather than $60 as stated on Zomato.

Second time going after getting Grabone vouchers for an Entree and Main for each person. GREAT DEAL! Went with the family for a dinner. Everyone got small enticing spoons of traditional tastes, and then an entree platter with curry puffs, satay chicken skewers, spring rolls and tofu triangles, one entree which was a soup option, I got the Tom yum soup was DELISH, we also ordered the full fish, cashew chicken, Penang curry, flaming chicken, sweet and sour chicken and a Pad Thai. Everything was perfect and there was so much food left over we took it home and had it the next day. Such good value for money and a great experience. Will go again for sure, love Thai, love Tusk!

Big mains portions! Had bought a deal online and was slightly wary as to the t&cs but was quite fairly treated. As it was a 5 course deal the entree and soup options were limited but decent enough including quantity. Ordered an entree tempura prawns which were very lacking in both flavour and quantity as only 4 provided. Garlic prawns in mains was another disappointment followed by the thai beef salad which really was much more a gravy dish than the way I have always had it including in Thailand. The whole fried fish was the star of the evening though best left to those who can handle spice - 5/5 for it. The chicken and coconut soup was good as was the green curry. The dessert was decent though would have loved it to have been more of an authentic thai menu. All in all a good experience especially when gifted with return visit vouchers where we can sample other items though the fish and the green curry will be a repeat order. Definitely pricey for thai but the portions were sufficient. Do light up the place better - near impossible to peruse the menu. Excellent also to not be charged separately for rice. Please put on a more authentic thai flavour across the menu.

Tusk is a wonderful authentic Thai restaurant, cosy and intimate its perfect for family gatherings or dinner with friends. There is an abundance of different dishes to choose from, my family had the sizzling beef and a duck dish. The portions were generous, prices fair and the food was delicious, next time I will definitely order the flaming chicken, though I didn't order this dish at the time it looked spectacular on the plates passing by. The staff were also friendly and attentive, best part of the evening was our oven baked passion fruit cheese cake. It was absolutely divine, the perfect way to finish off our delightful meal.

We had a fantastic dining experience at this Thai Street. The tom yum goong, pad thai chicken, and golden money bags were absolutely delicious, leaving my taste buds thoroughly satisfied. The gaeng kiew whan had a great flavor, although it could have been a bit creamier. The service was prompt and attentive, enhancing the overall experience. The only minor drawback was the $1 charge for takeaway containers, which might deter some diners. Nevertheless, it's undoubtedly a great place for a tasty meal.

Beautiful Thai cuisine 🔥 Vibrant flavours that are expertly balanced - the rich umami and buttery meats cut with citrus and spice 🫠👌 The staff are incredibly helpful and welcoming and the decor is very chic. I will be back again and again. It’s really elevated and generous for a street food joint - really worth a visit and a great place to take the date 💞

This place is a gem. Staff are friendly and accommodating, atmosphere is superb, but most of all the food is exceptional. I’d say their papaya salad is one of the best and the most authentic around here. You could see them making it in a mortar and pestle right before your eyes, and it has the perfect balance of tang, salt, spice and stinkiness (for lack of a better word - but if you know you know). Their seafood dishes are fresh and made with top quality ingredients. If you are a tom yum enthusiast like me I’d also recommend their steamed fish - which has quite a similar flavour profile and plenty of broth to slurp. Every time when I visit there I just can’t wait to go back there again.

This place operates by Thai immigrants who migrate over from Thailand and settle down in Auckland. The food is authentic Thai but unfortunately, the restaurant tones it down to suit the taste of European.

Authentic Thai food I tried in Auckland, especially Thai papaya salad! Mango sticky rice is sweet and nice dish but mango could be more better!

First time at Thai Street and it was amazing! Every staff member we dealt with from the moment we walked in, were absolutely amazing, so kind and friendly. Great atmosphere, beautiful inside and out. Food is to die for! The flavours, the tastes - incredible. Cannot wait to dine again.

These guys deserve a high rating. Came here on a first table reservation and was an excellent evening. Very friendly and welcoming and the food was spectacular. Pork Belly Hot Pot was so damn good. Everything was finished and we’ll definitely come back again.

I just wanted to say I am very happy that I finally made up my mind taking the stairs down to take a look at it. Thai Street, just as the name says, you get to try famous street or night market foods in Thailand, at this basement food court. Amazing! I ordered the world-famous boat noodles soup, which you only get to eat this on the boat on Bangkok canel water market. Without paying airfare, you enjoy it here in Auckland, New Zealand. Very authentic, incredibly delicious 😋 I can't help drinking every drop of the soup at the end.

I can’t recommend this restaurant enough! They were able to fit us in on really short notice, and provide an amazing experience! The food is so fresh and flavourful, exquisite Thai cuisine. Please make the trip here if you’re in Auckland, you won’t regret it!

Our regular MUST-HAVES are Tom Yum Goong (comes in good number of large prawns, always ordered large portion as we never had enough), Crispy Pork Hock, Crispy Snapper and Chargrilled Chicken with Sticky Rice & Green Papaya Salad. Highly satisfied with these staples! The refreshing authentic Thai condiments magically spiced up the dishes to the next level! Not forgetting the Go-Tos Green Chicken Curry (loved that creamy coconut taste), Massaman Beef Curry and Sizzling Beef. Portions are a tad tiny compared above but comfort food overall. Rainy night, curries on Jasmine rice, voila. Super quick service despite ordering upon arrival for a group of 15. Reservation over the phone a few days prior was easy and hassle free! Children friendly, cozy atmosphere, clean and good communication from staffs. Good choice of music too. 2 rounds of Tiger on Tap summed up a wonderful Anzac weekend! A good place to be.
