Came here Friday to check out the new restaurant after a long refurbishment. I must say it’s beautiful, stylish modern decor and amazing chairs. Food was Devine as always. Highly recommended.

We have family in eastbourne and travel 3 or 4 times a year to visit them. We have eaten at many places which are all okay/good. We found this place as we were looking for another place on the same road.
Well this is a "Gem" in Eastbourne, the staff are very helpful and if you want to know what to have just ask them as they are so nice and helpful. The food well we ordered 4 items between 2 of us and the explosion of taste was amazing so fresh and good.
The whole idea of this place is to try different things, so yes the portion size is smaller than a normal restaurant but you order 2 or 3 and the different tastes are amazing. If you are unsure we guessed which ones but just ask the guys working there and they will help.
This is now our regular place to eat when in eastbourne, i even asked the guys to write on the receipt what we had so next time we can try different things.
A+ food and staff great idea for trying new things we will be back

Me and my husband visited tuk tuk Saturday night before they were closing for refurbishment. As always we really had a lovely meal. I particularly enjoyed the dosa. Can’t wait to see the new restaurant

Just happened to pop in and was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food and excellent service would definitely go back and explore more of the menu.

We've never tried this sort of restaurant or food before. We've obviously eaten Indian food, but never tried street food. We were pleasantly surprised. Great food at a good price. Would recommend. Service was good too.

My wife and I visited Tuk-Tuk in Eastbourne for the second time recently and were really impressed. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable and the food was fabulous! There were many dishes my wife could choose from that were gluten free. This is amazing, as usually there are only a couple of choices in restaurants. We shared six dishes between us and each one was truly delicious. Yes, it's a lively place, so not somewhere for romance, but for amazing Indian food and a great vibe, it really is worth a visit. We look forward to our next visit!!!

Visited with a few friends on a Saturday evening. Very busy (just as well we had booked). Staff were friendly but happy for guests to take their time. I had a thali which was nice and reasonable proportions - next time I'd go for a selection of dishes instead (mutton curry wasn't my thing)… would visit again.

We were welcomed to our reserved table by a pleasant and informal waiter who soon took our drinks order which included a couple of beers a cola and a pleasant glass of house red wine. We ordered mini poppadums and chutney to open our meal which were brought to our table very quickly. Our main meal orders included a selection of Indian "tapas" including kebabs, Mumbai biryani and fish cakes. My wife and daughter went for meat thali, which are complete dishes.
The whole dining experience in this busy and lively restaurant was great. The food was excellent and tasty being served by enthusiastic staff. We ended the evening with excellent coffees. A good evening out!

Really good food, plenty of flavours and spices, doesn't seem alot of food as they are small bowls but actually very filling. Would visit again as also found the staff friendly, very good to be made welcome.

Perfect for lunch, freshly made food to order.
Good service, friendly waiter. Clean restaurant.
Trio of chicken starter is delicious, prawns were perfect, nice light batter. Chilli chicken was very tasty, spot on.
Cutlery is uncomfortable to use, but apart from that this is the ideal place for lunch, we visit every time we are in this area, just a few times each year unfortunately, shame it's not nearer to home.

I’ve been meaning to visit this place for a while and so glad I did! The dishes are not the same as you get everywhere.
I had the thali was was delicious and also had a spicy egg roll which I loved! My husband had a lamb curry and the lamb was so tender and the sauce was more authentic than you get most places. All the portions are served tapas style and we had so many that we couldn’t manage dinner!
The service was friendly and quick, I can’t wait to go back!

The decor is perfectly fitting, as is the music and atmosphere - all very relaxed and lively. The service was perfect essentially, and the menu is refreshing and large. There is so much to pick from, and it excites you seeing what options you have. They have a tapas-style selection of dishes, and full single meals as well.
Overall, I have no complaints as I had an excellent lunch there! I would really recommend!

Visited on a Saturday eve as passed by and thought it looked Great! even it was packed...they fitted us in and apologised for the short wait to order (which we not a problem for us) we had the mixed tandoori platter, onion bhajis, paneer sticks, dhal fry and fish cakes!! It was all amazing and hands down the best Indian food we have had (even when in India) totally recommend this place, staff were lovely too.

Finally good Indian food!!
Ordered golgappas, meat thali, biryani and the tandoori platter. Everything tasted amazing. I do have one complaint. The masala chai was way too milky.

Came here with my parents ( we are quite fussy about indian food being indians!). We enjoyed the food and would recommend this place - the stuffed paratha and channa puri were well made, tasty and good spicing!. The dosa and sambhar were average. the staff are very friendly and there's good vibe in the place

I love Indian food, so to find a tapas style Indian restaurant was amazing. The food arrived in good time, was delicious and the service was extremely attentive. I can’t believe we haven’t been here before! Highly recommend and will be visiting regularly!

The food is so delicious.
I was really impressed that the menu is actually street food rather than the dated curry house menu, usually found in Indian restaurant. We had a vegetarian thali, Meat thali, railway snacks and a dosa. I've never sat at a table in an Indian restaurant and seen every single bit of food eaten at the end of the meal. ( I recently went to Dashoon in London after waiting 3 months to get a booking and the food was not as good as Tuk Tuk)
The interior has a contemporary and stylish feel, which is great for Eastbourne's development. I love the use of authentic Indian accessories and Indian music.
A great place. Will be there lots ! Well done Tuk Tuk.

Had dinner at tuck tuck on Thursday 12th July. The food here is excellent. We had three different dishes each and everyone of them was delicious. The portions of food was very good, just the right size. Service was great. I really enjoyed eating here and look forward to going again.

A different take on Indian food. Love the choice and variety of flavours. If you like Indian food I would definitely recommend this place. It's often quite quiet with a relaxed feel.

I am the kind of person that goes to Indian restaurants because my friends like it; but I am always afraid of spicy (hot) food. I simply cannot eat it, so I always say I have allergies and then end up with the same plate: Saag paneer. This whole picture changed last week when a friend took me to Tuk Tuk; what a pleasure! I really loved every single tapa style dish we tried. I highly recommend this gem.

7 of us had lunch here today. A severely hot Saturday. We ordered 3 dishes each, as recommended, and passed then around, so a super-sized mixed Thali. Every dish was excellent. Hot, tasty and beautiful. The service was frienfdy and efficient and it was very cheap. We'll certainly be back. You could drop in for a snack or enjoy a fully fledged banquet. Very child friendly too.

Curry is not only the UK’s favourite food, but in some respects a national barometer. A good Dhansak is a good Dhansak regardless of location, from Edinburgh to - as it just so happens - Eastbourne.
We happened upon Tuk Tuk via TripAdvisors recommendations and called in just after the lunchtime rush (I imagine “rush” in Eastbourne is somewhat relative). We were quickly seated and presented with really interesting menus. As per usual we over-catered, selecting three reasonably large plates to share.
The food was brilliant. The Tandoori chicken was wonderful, beautifully charred on the outside but succulent in the middle, and the butter chicken was equally flavoursome. Service was fantastic - one of the best-run places we tried in our week on the south coast.
On a slight downside, ordering a number of small dishes can quickly add up, but this is true of tapas and sushi as well. We still felt like we had good value for money.
Thoroughly recommended.
