A Delightful Fusion of Flavors at Thai Elephant Restaurant on Queen Street, Canada

My recent visit to Thai Elephant Restaurant on Queen Street in Canada left me absolutely thrilled, especially after trying their Curry Pad Thai. This hidden gem of a restaurant is a true haven for Thai cuisine enthusiasts like me, offering an array of authentic dishes that capture the essence of Thai flavors.

The Curry Pad Thai at Thai Elephant Restaurant is a delightful twist on the traditional Pad Thai dish. The combination of fragrant curry and the classic rice noodles creates a harmonious blend of flavors that truly tantalize the taste buds. The dish is perfectly balanced with just the right amount of heat, and the use of fresh ingredients is evident in every bite.

The presentation of the Curry Pad Thai was a visual delight as well. The vibrant colors of the vegetables, the succulent shrimp, and the aromatic curry sauce came together to create a stunning plate that made my mouth water before even taking a bite. Each ingredient was expertly cooked, ensuring that the flavors remained distinct yet melded beautifully.

The service at Thai Elephant Restaurant was exceptional. The staff members were welcoming, attentive, and eager to accommodate any special requests or dietary preferences. They took the time to explain the menu and make recommendations, which added to the overall enjoyable dining experience.

The ambiance of the restaurant is cozy and inviting, with warm lighting and tasteful decor that reflects Thai culture. Whether you're looking for a casual meal with friends or a romantic dinner for two, Thai Elephant Restaurant provides the perfect setting to enjoy their delectable cuisine.

In addition to their Curry Pad Thai, Thai Elephant Restaurant offers a wide selection of other Thai dishes that are equally outstanding. From their aromatic curries to their flavorful stir-fries, every item on the menu showcases the chef's expertise and passion for Thai cuisine.

If you're in the Queen Street area and craving authentic Thai flavors, I highly recommend visiting Thai Elephant Restaurant. Their Curry Pad Thai, along with their attentive service and inviting ambiance, will undoubtedly leave you with a memorable dining experience. Prepare yourself for a culinary journey that will transport your taste buds to the vibrant streets...

PLEASE TRY THIS PLACE. IT'S THE BEST!!! READ WHOLE REVIEW

I have always ordered Thai Elephant but through delivery. Finally one day I decided to dine in with my partner. I had been raving about this place for awhile. He tried it and understood why it's my favourite. Everything is SO fresh and tasty. Honestly, SO well priced too. Yes it's not a shiny swanky restaurant like some of the new places on Queen... but it's QUEEN!! The district is known for being eclectic, different and approachable.

BUT..... besides this being a great restaurant, it's Harry (I think that was his name) who made our experience 5 stars!!! I am not sure if he is the owner. If he isn't, he definitely fooled me because his level of care and service was so heart warming. He was super attentive and genuinely wanted to hear how our experience was. He invited us back as if he was opening up his family home to us and wanting to share food. I am Italian and food is our LOVE language. He also gifted us their spicy oil. IT'S literally CRACK!!

The cherry on top, we left and thanked him his hospitality. We were walking to our car when we noticed we almost got a parking ticket. Thankfully the officer let us off... but just as we did... out ran HARRY!!

"GUYS GUYS GUYS!!! Don't park there next time. Please!! you will get a ticket. Park over there...."

how f*ucking sweet!! lol we were gone out of his establishment YET he still ran out to make sure we were looked after.

People buy products/services and experiences from people like they. We "buy" the people and their stories. There are 8,000 restaurants in Toronto. Thank you Harry for going 10 steps above what was asked of you. You are a GEM and I will continue to make Thai Elephant my go to Thai in the...

I arrived at 5pm, off peak hour. It took them a while to greet me and seat my party, when the place had only one other customer.

The bathrooms are broken and dirty.

Staff is friendly but doesn't understand what great customer service. I mentioned I was vegan and my partner is vegetarian. She informed us there's fish is the curry. She said it's okay to have some fish oil as a vegetarian, it's only a little bit... most people who are vegetarian eat fish. I'm like no, that's not true, we don't eat fish. I don't appreciate being told how to be a vegetarian when I have been my ENTIRE life. She continues to tell us it's only a little bit, as if we're being picky about it. She wasn't respectful of our dietary restrictions and wanted us to just be okay with fish oil in out food. We asked for a moment to review the menu. At which point I hear her repeating our conversation to the kitchen, saying again it's just a little fish oil but not sure what the issue is. We moved past and offered the cold Spring Rolls and Stir-fry, which didn't have fish oil. The cold Spring rolls were bad, greens in it were bitter and the dipping sauce tasted like it's from a bottle, just too sweet. The stir fry was good, but not great. I don't think I'll be returning after that ignorance and lack of respect for my dietary restrictions. You've undermined me as a vegetarian. You should learn that there are many variations to being a vegetarian and none...

I recently dined at the Thai Elephant Restaurant. I must say, I was thoroughly impressed! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by friendly and attentive staff and owner who made me feel right at home. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with traditional Thai decor that added to the overall dining experience. The menu was extensive, offering a wide range of dishes that cater to all tastes and preferences. I was pleased to see that the menu included vegetarian options, as well as a selection of gluten-free dishes. I decided to try the green curry and it was fantastic! The spices were perfectly balanced and the vegetables were cooked to perfection. The service was top-notch, with my drinks constantly being refilled and my plates being promptly cleared. The staff were knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations. I also appreciated the restaurant's commitment to sustainability, with eco-friendly packaging used for takeout orders. In conclusion, I had an excellent dining experience at the Thai Elephant Restaurant on Queen Street West in Toronto. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a fantastic Thai dining experience. The service was fantastic, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Five stars!

We were craving for Thai food and it was late night and saw this place open and took a chance. Had no expectations of the food The place does look a bit dingy (wish they could make it look more inviting) but you will be surprised by the food. Firstly good portion sizes and value for money and the server was friendly and helpful. We loved the green Thai curry with the rice and the pad Thai and the spring rolls and the tofu and the egg plants. The restaurant made chilli oil was one of the best we have had to date. It was freshly made on the day we dined at the restaurant. (Not for the faint hearted 😄😄). The menu seemed extensive. Drinks were limited. Desserts were about 5/6 on the menu. They do take credit card. Would def return. Parking around the restaurant is next to impossible esp during peak hour and one may have to park a little further and walk down. I did notice the restaurant had tons of orders for pick up so it surely must be popular with people living around this area and probably speaks about the food too!
