Pukk

Pros: food quality, and cheap prices more

But loved every soy minute. I would recommend the Basil Duck. It was fantastic! more

I have been to some of the most delicious restaurants in New York....and Pukk is a refreshing, wonderful addition to this mix. I have always hated fake meat, but Pukk really knows how to handle and transform this! The ""duck"" salad is out of this world--crunchy cashews, lots of spice and tang, and crisp faux duck morsals...It was in shere BLISS. I love that this restaurant doesn't ""white-ify"" their dishes or hold back on spices. Ordering a lot of appetizers is the way to go--you'll try wonderful selections of various things and enjoy every second of it. The service is attentive and friendly, but best of all the prices are sooo inexpensive! Compared to some of the most esteemed (and pricey)restaurants in New York, Pukk's originality and flavor is right up there!!! Enjoy a truly exellect meal--cruelty free! Pukk makes the world a better place. more

I resisted going to Pukk for a long time- it looked too hip for it's own good and I am/was devoted to another Thai restaurant close by. What a shame that I waited! The food is AMAZING, as are the prices. I'm not a vegetarin, but the food is so good you'll never miss the meat. Even their faux meats were darn good- and I'm not a tofu fan. Service is friendly and efficient. A little to dark in the rear of the restaurant, but that's my only complaint. Pros: Amazing, fresh food, Unique modern decor, CHEAP! Cons: NONE! more

Went to Pukk for the first time last week and just ordered delivery for tonight! The food is extremely fresh/full of flavor & my husband & I haven't found truly spicy Thai since we were in Thailand last year - but the spicing is perfect @ Pukk. Everything is vegetarian which is also great. Try the green curry and the spinach toast (which is more like a roll). Service with true Thai hospitality. It was a little cool in the joing (temp), but otherwise comfortable. Hope they're around for a while...They deliver, too Pros: fresh ingredients, good service, diverse menu more

On the outside, looking in, Pukk looks pretty nice. A friend recommended this place to me so I thought I would check it out. It's a small place, I guess good for a small group of girlfriends or boyfriends to get together. The tile walls and the cushy/gelly seats looked pretty cool. The service is great. The music they played set the mood. I went with a good friend of mines and the overall experience was alright. I would not recommend the rice crepe appetizer. It was funky tasting, didn't know what was inside of it. And it was too sweet. The pad thai w/duck wasn't bad. The thai ice tea was probably the only thing I enjoyed there and in addition to the person I was with. This place isn't bad so long as you know what to order. Pros: pad thai, thai ice tea Cons: rice crepe dish more

we went before a movie so we needed fast service but it was a little too rushed, we were out of there in under 40 minutes. great value though and the food was delicious. vegetarian but it says ""chicken"" on the menu in place but they make it with some fake/tofu like substance, very good. my husband, who doesn't care for tofu, etc. really liked it. very cool interior, all white tiles like you are in an empty swimming pool or something, fun. Pros: food, decor, inexpensive Cons: rushed service more

My friend is vegan and she took me to this place about a week ago. I would go back just for the ambience! It such a funky cool looking place with white tiled walls and lime green seating. Im usually not such a big fan of vegan, but the food was good (esp the chocolate cake), and so were the apple martini's. Not for the claustrophobic tho...this place is small & narrow! Pros: Ambience, food Cons: Small more

Nice atmosphere, but the food was horrible. everything was too sweet, like a desert. my party ordered alot of appetitizers and we were horrified that each appetitizers tasted alike.. sweet. i was expecting much more, but came out with an empty pocket and still hungry. Ended up at McDonnald. i would recommended this place for those that like only sweet items. this is your place! more

Unsuspecting addition to this block... PuKK looks great from the outside (you won't be disappointed). A friend and I went on a Friday night and were seated right away. The bright green ambience is a unique color. I had a Thai iced tea, traditional Thai salad (the peanut sauce is one of the best ever), the eggplant with basil (yummy), my friend had the pad thai with 'chicken' (very good). Non-vegans will still be satisfied. The servings are small but just right for the price. The chocolate banana cake is rich, and apple turnover cake is sweet and delicious. All this for around $35 for two. Can't beat that! Pros: food, price Cons: small space, draft from front door more

I went here with 3 friends and we all enjoyed it. For the E. Village, it is quite inexpensive! The Watercress with Lotus Root appetizer was incredible, as was the Papaya Salad. Their soups are really delicious as well--one was a vermicelli soup, and the other was a spicy Thom Yum (I think). In terms of main courses, the Pad Thai was dissapointing--not enough flavor. The Perfect Protein Duck was incredible, though. My boyfriend tried the Raad Na Hed--good, but nothing too exciting. Amazing decor, but it's a very tight space with not enough room for big winter coats or bags if you've just gone shopping. Check out the cool bathroom, too! Make sure to look for the hologram on the wall. Pros: All veggie menu, inexpensive, funky decor Cons: tight space more

A welcome if surprising addition to this block. Sleek modern decor warrants conversation. I eat meat and didn't miss it at all in my faux-chicken curry. Great apps and cheap to boot. Pros: inexpensive, lively, sleek Cons: liquor license? more
