" I can’t stop raving about this restaurant! The ambiance immediately transported me to Thailand, and the menu is extensive with plenty of authentic dishes. I had the Tom Yum soup and Drunken Noodles, both of which were deliciously spicy and packed with flavors. The service was impeccable, and my server took the time to explain various dishes. If you’re a fan of Thai food, you must visit Thai Elephant! " (*Curated Review*)

" What an experience! The decor is elegant, setting a great atmosphere for dining. I ordered the Pad See Ew and found it to be a nice blend of textures and flavors. The portion size was generous, and I'd recommend anyone to try the appetizers too! Only downside was that the service could be faster, but the overall experience made it worthwhile. I would definitely come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I came here for lunch and got the yellow curry, which was solid but did not impress me entirely. The service was quick and professional, yet I expected more flavor in the dish. The restaurant had a lovely decor, and it was comfortable, but taste-wise, it lagged behind what I've had elsewhere. Perhaps the dinner menu holds more potential. " (*Curated Review*)

" Thai Elephant offers a wonderful dining experience with a great variety of dishes. I had the yellow chicken curry, and it was seasoned perfectly, bursting with flavors. The servers were friendly and made sure we were always attended to. I like the decor which gives off a calming vibe, however, on this visit I felt that their ingredient freshness could improve. Overall, I enjoyed myself. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for authentic Thai food, this is the place to go! I was treated to a delightful meal and the staff made great recommendations. The Spring Rolls were impressive, and the Green Curry was both spicy and aromatic. The decor radiated a traditional Thai vibe, contributing to a wonderful dining experience. Will definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a mixed experience at Thai Elephant. While the atmosphere was delightful and the service friendly, I found the Pad Thai lacking authenticity – almost tasted like ketchup instead of the rich flavors I was expecting. The Thai iced tea was excellent, though! I might consider returning, but I would definitely ask about the authenticity of the dishes first next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Such a great spot for Thai food! The staff is always friendly and remembers our usual orders. Their Drunken Noodles are wonderfully flavorful, and they don't shy away from the spice! Plus, the place is always clean, which adds to a pleasant dining experience. Highly recommend for anyone in the Tri-Cities area. " (*Curated Review*)
