So I've been ordering from this restaurant periodically throughout the pandemic, and I want to change my review a bit. I got around to their massaman curry, and it's pretty freakin' good. Also, in their noodles their tofu is much firmer, definitely not the soft/non-sauteed kind. I think with their more liquid stuff just tends to absorb moisture. These guys remain great, so I'm upping this to a five star. I imagine as I go through the menu a bit more, I'll be getting some more great stuff. I'm keeping the below review the same, so you can see some of my previous comments. Still doing takeout/delivery, and I implore others to do the same for the safety of everyone during the pandemic. (Apparently Yelp won't let me edit my other review since it's been over 30 days. So here's a new one. Makes me sad that I can't cancel out my four star one, though.) read more

Well...it's new. When you walk in they give you the directions on how to order. Cool. They don't have the menu up on a wall, but rather on 3 giant boards you can pass around. We ordered spicy rice, pineapple fried rice and beef jerky. We also got fried tofu for an appetizer. We also ordered one bubble tea; without milk. Not great. You pay. You sit. You wait (not long). They bring the food to your table. Your food comes on (compostable) paper plates or in boxes (also compostable). Why? They have a station where you can get tiny glasses of water, tiny napkins and either disposable utensils or metal (if eating in). If we are eating in, can we have real glasses? I must have gone up to the station 5-6 times. The rice dishes were exactly as we expected; they were very good. The fried tofu was terrific. The beef jerky....well...let's say the picture was far better than it actually looked or tasted. The picture showed long strips of beef. The plate showed a small little pile of beef. It was good and I finished it. But, it was small (and the most expensive thing we ordered at $11.95) and not very filling. read more

If you want authentic, fresh, "no frills" Thai food, this is your place! This is as close as it gets in Pittsburgh. We had Pad Kee Mao Noodles and the Tom Yum Fried Rice. My wife and I lived in Thailand for a while - this is now 1 of 2 Thai places in Pittsburgh that feels authentic. Highly recommended. read more

I came here with no prior Pad Thai experience, but plenty of bubble tea experience. I really enjoyed everything. The Pad Thai was amazing. Good amount of spice and heat while also maintaining great flavor. The bubble tea was some of my favorite. I had the orange mango bubble tea with milk. It made me feels so blissful. Definitely plan on coming again. read more

Had a wonderful meal at Took Took 98 on August 11. We had wonderful dine-in service made extraordinary by how busy the restaurant was with other diners and people coming in to pick up to-go orders. Everyone was so warm and friendly and we were thrilled with all of our food as well. Our group ordered two different types of curry, pad see ew, and pad thai. All turned out very well. Look forward to returning here the next time we're in Squirrel Hill! read more

This might be a good take out place, but definitely not a dine-in one. They automatically charged 18% service fee if you choose to dine in. However, the only service they give is bring the food, which is in a disposable paper plate, from the kitchen to the table. You have to get your own water(BTW, the size of the water cup is ridiculous. ), get the fork, return the plate to the track... I mean, the other restaurants I know that charge service fee automatically, they at least bring you the water and keep refilling it. The food is good in general. But the dine-in experience is bad... read more

Quality food. Excellent service. I recently moved to Pittsburgh and this is just a few blocks from me. It is going to become a staple. Great tasting food with generous portions for the price. I have tried the pineapple fried rice, pad kee mao, and their tom yum rice (which was excellent). I am excited to explore their menu more while I live here. read more

We got the chicken pad thai and pork tom yum fried rice. For the price and quantity that you get, I'd say this was pretty darn good. The pad thai had more sauce than I would have expected. read more

Today, I tried Thai food for the first time. Several people recommended Took Took 98 and I'm not sure I could've started at a better place. It's like hearing an amazing genre of music for the very first time. The Tom Yum soup was incredible. I love how you can adjust the spice level, and everything about it was sheer perfection. Easily a top 3 favorite soup now. I've always loved fried rice but the fried rice here is special- fragrant, a dance on your palate. The shrimp cakes were like if you took the best chicken McNuggets and made them 10 times better. I don't know if I love Thai food yet, but I know I love this restaurant. read more

Great food, horrible and slow service. Doesn't matter if it's a Tuesday or Saturday, you aren't getting your food in time. They're also quite rude to delivery people. Parking is also bad. read more

took my family here for dinner during graduation weekend. great service, and everyone loved the food! I had their pad kee mao and it was unlike others I had (seemed to have some type of mint leaves in it) -- unique and very good. read more

Our favorite new Thai restaurant! The dumplings and wonton are the best around! We've only picked up our food but they have a great dining area as well. This is our new go-to, in the weekends, for a quick, easy dinner.. read more

Great addition to the neighborhood! Really authentic Thai dishes that other places in the city don't offer. The owner and staff are also really welcoming and willing to chat. We've tried several dishes here and all were delicious, and made with fresh, Thai ingredients. read more

Great place! Beware that a 2 out of 5 is VERY spicy (at least for this white girl). Very good Pad See Ew and Massamam curry. Next time I want to try the salads. read more

This is my go-to take away spot in Squirrel Hill. The food is always fresh and so delicious. My favorites are the massaman curry and the pad see ew noodles (these are spicy).The staff is so polite and welcoming. read more

The pad Thai, which is a staple of Thai cuisine, was very bland. I also ordered green curry and got sour curry instead. Thinking i'd stick with what i got, the sour curry was also bland and not flavorful. They are new and definitely need improvement if they want to stay competitive with the other solid Thai restaurants around the city. read more

I ordered shrimp fritter, pad kee mao noodle with pork and pork jerky. Everything was very good. The staff was very friendly and courteous. Would like to come back to try the other dishes. read more

See all

Great Thai food with rich flavors! I got the Pad Thai Noodle Plate and the Golden Tofu. They were both delicious. Ate with my family and everyone loved the food! A lot of great vegetarian options and good service. read more

I like my food well seasoned and can tolerate food on the saltier side but this is the saltiest pad see ew I've ever had, it overpowers any other flavor in the dish. The Tom yum soup was pretty good. read more

We had a massaman curry and a noodle dish with crispy chicken. Both were fantastic. But the dumplings are to die for.

I love took took 98! The pad Thai, fish cakes and salad rolls is probably my top favorite meal of all time. Thanks took took!!

Took Took 98 is literally so good I cannot recommend it enough, the service was amazing and everyone was very sweet, best food i've had in a while. Definitely get the fried wontons, they were so good we had to get 2 orders. Try it out!!!! read more

This is my new favorite Thai restaurant! The Tom Yum rice dish is amazing. They use fresh ingredients and the portions reflect their prices. When I order take out it's always ready within 10minutes. Not only is the food amazing and fast but the staff is incredibly friendly and appreciate their patrons. I definitely will continue to recommend this place to anyone in squirrel hill! read more

This place was awesome! The food was outstanding, the service was wonderful and the owner was such a sweetie! This was by far the best Thai restaurant I've been to in a long time. Highly recommend! read more

Food was good and the bubble tea was great but the service was unbelievably slow. We were the only people in the restaurant and it took over 45 minutes to get our food, which we requested to have boxed up and taken to go. Would not recommend due to the lack of timely service. read more

Been twice for takeout. Really like their salad rolls-very large with fresh mango ! Recommend the pumpkin curry, substituted roti for the rice which was a good move. Also highly recommend the pork Rangoon roll. My wife said that this takeout put her in her "happy place" read more

The food was great, and the people were so sweet! Excited to have a new go-to Thai place! Try the coconut refresher when you visit!

My friend and I went to this place for dinner and the food was simply amazing. We had the Pad Kee Mao and Spicy fried rice. Both of them were really good. The service was also super quick! read more

really enjoyed the tom yum fried rice and pad thai!! service was a little slow bc there was only one person working front and back of house, but well worth the wait, especially considering the affordable prices! read more

I think this is the best Thai food in Pittsburgh, and it's some of the best Thai food I've had outside of Thailand!! We got takeout and tried the gu chai chive dumplings, salad rolls, pumpkin curry, pad kee mao and the volcano roti for dessert. It was ready right on time. I would order any of these again and I can't wait to go back a second time to try more dishes. Everything was so fresh and flavorful! It's clear that their curry paste is homemade using high quality ingredients, and the tofu was delicious. I don't normally write reviews, but this place is so good. Very reasonable prices too. I would highly recommend it! read more

This place is my go to favorite right now. It has distinctively unique things not found at other places! I love that I get to try things I've never seen. They emphasize on street foods found in Thailand not "Americanized version of Thai food" the curries are delish! The noodle dishes are excellent. Don't compare other restaurants when eating here. Just ask yourself how awesome this place is........I love Took Took! read more

Pad Kra Paw/ Pad Prik Paw are delicious as well. Most similar to what you might have heard as "Basil Chili Chicken" or something like that.

Fantastic food! One of the best Thai food places in Pittsburgh. Very polite and welcoming staff.

You really can't go wrong. I love the Kai Kra Ta 1 and the Kaw Tom soup off of the brunch menu. The Pad Thai is quality. Portions are generous. I can't wait to try more dishes! read more

Food was still warm when I got it and wow I've never had such a nice pad thai without the added peanuts. I swear some places just add straight pb but not here. Very generous servings and the calamari was delicious. Definitely added to my list of thai places read more

A great quarantine meal! Had green curry and tom yum noodle soup quickly delivered to me hot and tasty.

I ordered the crispy wontons and pad kee mao (veggie + shrimp)....AMAZING ‼ Definitely Will order again. A 3 on the spicy scale was . I can't go higher than that read more

I had the Kang Kian Wan Curry, which is very similar to a typical green curry but it had some winter melon in it. It was delicious - great combination of sweet, spicy, salty, and sour (just like good Thai food should be). Highly recommended! read more

Delicious ! Thrilled we live within their delivery sector and can support them directly. The first time we ordered they were incredibly helpful and made good recommendations, especially regarding the spice level. Terrific green curry, pumpkin curry, Thai rice, larb salad. We will definitely order again. read more

This place is lovely -- has been wanting to try it and then finally got take-out when COVID-19 hit the city. We got some spring rolls, fried tofu, fried eggplant, and a red curry. Everything was delicious, take out was smooth and sanitary. The curry was especially authentic and delicious. read more
