This has become our local go-to Thai restaurant and we love recommending it to friends.They are always so welcoming to our family, great place to bring kids. We've never gone with more than 5 people, but they have a couple spots where I think you could do a larger group.Everything we've had has been good. Our go-tos are the beef pad see ew and the roasted duck curry.

What a find. We were at a lacrosse game in Laguna Hills and were all hungry when it finished. The kids wanted Thai and we ended up here.We ordered way too much food. The portions were healthy. We ordered 2 soups, garlic/pepper beef, Pad See Ew, and curry. The food was amazing. My son said it was the best food he has had.We topped it off with mango rice for dessert. I didn't know you could do that with rice, but it was delicious.Prices are reasonable. Overall, we are coming back even though it is a bit of a drive. Great job, Elephant Cafe!

I would say food, service and atmosphere was so-so. One thing was more disturbing the plates and silverware they brought to the table not only they weren't clean, the waiter's hands was on the plate.

FABULOUS food! They use quality ingredients and it shows! The yellow curry was simple but the flavors were perfection. Rolls were fresh and tasty. Veggie Pad see yew had lots of veggies and was fresh.

My new favorite thai restaurant. New to the area. We have had the very best near SF. This was just slightly under that. Had spicy basil rice and drunken noodles. Both very authentic flavors. Had take out but looked very cute inside. Very nice and friendly owner. Will be back soon for the crying tiger snd other favorites. Great job

The owner has a good heart, good morals, and makes delicious news. Gradually make merit and give alms to people. Want to be homeless and ask for food to eat!

Best Thai I've ever had! Tom Kha soup was brought out first in a silver pot on fire. It was delicious, and the Basil Fried Rice and Garlic and pepper dish was just as good.
