" I recently tried Blue Elephant, and the experience was nothing short of fantastic! The flavors in each dish were bright and authentic, reminiscent of my last trip to Thailand. I ordered the Pad Thai, which was perfectly cooked, and I also tried the Massaman curry. My tastebuds were dancing! The service was incredibly friendly, although I did have a bit of a wait since they focus on taking out only. This restaurant has turned into my new favorite spot for Thai food in Miami! " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends raved about the Lava rolls from Blue Elephant, and I had to try them for myself. They did not disappoint! Fantastic flavor and freshness were evident throughout every bite. However, I noticed that the prices have increased slightly over the past months, which is understandable but a bit concerning. Still, the quality makes it worth it. I probably won’t stop coming back anytime soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I decided to try Blue Elephant based on the recommendation of friends, and I have no regrets! The twist of flavors in the green curry was outstanding, and the quality of their sushi surpassed my expectations. It’s definitely a small place, but the food speaks volumes. The staff made my experience even better—they were friendly and quick with service! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so many rave reviews about Blue Elephant, I had to see for myself what all the hype was about. I ordered the Thai curry and a couple of sushi rolls. The flavors were rich, and you could tell that the ingredients were fresh. However, I did find the rolls smaller than expected for the price I paid. The restaurant operates on a takeout-only basis, which I appreciate during these times, but it would have been nice to enjoy the food in-house as well. All in all, it was a lovely experience, and I plan on returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a fan of Thai cuisine, I have to say that Blue Elephant exceeded my expectations! The sushi options were fresh, and I especially loved the Volcano roll. I found the sushi rolls affordable compared to other places in Miami too. The only thing I noticed was that they were frequently busy, which shows their popularity but can lead to a wait. Overall, I felt it was worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I am so glad I discovered Blue Elephant! Each dish I have tried has been packed with flavor, yet the portions are quite small for the price. The flavors remind me of my experiences in Thailand, which is hard to come by. They do a brilliant job with flavor profiles overall. The service is friendly, but I would love to see more generous portion sizes in the future! " (*Curated Review*)

" After numerous visits, I’m rating Blue Elephant as one of the best Thai takeout places in Miami! The flavors are vibrant and authentic, taking me back to Thailand. The shrimp rolls and ginger stir-fry are personal favorites! The service is impeccable, always coming with a smile. Although the restaurant lacks dining space, their quick service for takeout makes up for it. Happy to support a family-owned local business! " (*Curated Review*)
