This was my first time trying Smiling Elephant and we were very underwhelmed. The staff was amazing and super nice so we may try it again. The food portions of the protein and veggies were very small for $17. As you can see from the picture there are about 2 cups of rice in my container, 3 oz of chicken satay and a few pieces of veggies. The side sauces also come stuffed in this container so it is jam packed. I would’ve preferred having everything separate. The peanut sauce from the chicken went into the rice leaving the chicken pretty dry. The flavor was okay, I asked for spicy and it was not. We also had the cashew chicken same portions but this one was super spicy. Dumplings were not flav...
This is one of our favorite places to eat in the neighborhood. The food is consistently delicious, and the staff has always been welcoming no matter how busy they are. These are just a couple of reasons this place has been a local staple for many years. We will be back soon!
First time ordering, and I doubt I will again. The rice is nicely cooked but the chicken...doesn't really taste like chicken. It's bland and chewy! And the tomatoes... definitely not fresh. If people are to pay $20 for a fried rice, shouldn't it be worth it?
The flavors were amazing! Service was impeccable. Loved the decorations, like bringing the east to the west. The restaurant was also adorned with many awards that are much deserved. Best Thai I have had ever! Don't forget to ring the gong on the way out!

Smiling elephant is always a solid pick for me, especially during lunch! Their mango sticky rice is to die for, as well as their signature mung bean noodles. Overall, if you want a solid meal with great attentive service, give smiling elephant a try :
Great spot for curry and Pad Thai. The steamed dumplings make for a good appetizer. Seating and parking is limited, but it's very cozy with pleasant staff. Worth a visit! We'll be back again!
Great tasting, very flavorful. Portion sizes are great. Service is friendly and prompt. Would come back and often do!
Awesome! I have a new Favorite. The flavor and texture of the Pad Thia make it an excellent choice.
