Very solid, tasty food, reasonable prices and quick service. Anywhere else in the world this would be a 5 star quality meal, in Toronto theres just so much competition I feel it doesn't quiet make the cut...but don't let my fussy standard discourage you, this place is great. We've been return customers here for over a decade and we make regular orders, probably at least monthly. Looking forward to our next visit!

We had a great experience here! The Pad Thai and Khao Soy were both delicious—full of flavor and cooked perfectly. The spring rolls were tasty too, though the portion could’ve been bigger. The staff was warm and courteous, making the meal even better. They even packed an extra container of chili oil with our leftovers. Overall, great food and excellent service. Definitely worth a visit! We look forward to coming back here :)

I recently ordered takeout from this restaurant, and I have to say, I was very impressed with both the quality and quantity of the food. I've had similar dishes from other places, but this restaurant really stood out. The Traditional Pad Thai with Beef was fantastic. The noodles were perfectly cooked, and the flavor was spot on. My only slight criticism is that, since I added beef as an extra, I expected a bit more of it. That said, it didn’t take away from the overall experience—just a small suggestion for improvement. The calamari was delicious as well. The rings were crispy and perfectly seasoned, and the accompanying sweet sauce was a great match. One minor tweak I’d recommend is adding a wedge of lemon to enhance the flavor, but other than that, it was a solid dish. Also, it’s worth noting that the calamari was served as rings only, not with any squid pieces, which may be a consideration for some. The Mango Salad was another highlight. Fresh, and full of flavor. Overall, this restaurant really delivered on taste and freshness. I’ll definitely be ordering again!

This was hands down the best Thai food we’ve ever had! Thai cuisine is my favorite, so we’ve tried a lot of places, but this meal truly stood out. Every dish— from the red curry to the pad Thai and eggplant chicken stir-fry—was bursting with authentic flavor that transported us right back to Thailand. The food came out incredibly fast, and the service was great. The staff were so friendly and attentive, and the complimentary cake was a wonderful surprise. Highly recommend this spot for anyone craving authentic Thai flavours and warm hospitality!

Best part of my visit was definitely the staff- both gentlemen (server and chef) exuded a kind, gracious attitude. The meal itself (spicey vegetarian noodles) wasn't as friendly; while the noodles themselves were tasty they weren't at all spicey (adding chilli oil didn't do much), and the quantity of vegetables and tofu was pretty light considering the dish costs $20 including tax. Thai Elephant was certainly better than other places and also not somewhere I'd make the effort to return to.

Vegetarian review The best Thai curry in town. Their mango salsa is a MUST MUST try. Their green curry is a perfect blend of taste and goes perfect with sticky rice. This has become my go to place for take outs. There food is filling but not heavy in stomach. I really want to appreciate their packaging. They use cardboard after every box to keep all food stable in the bag. The staff is kind and sweet. DISCOUNT TIP : Pickup food over $20 bill and pay with cash, you get 10% off.

The food here is top notch and I’m angry I didn’t try it sooner. Chicken satay came with a generous amount of peanut sauce and mango salad, and it was so flavourful and fresh! The pad sew was absolutely incredible, best smokey flavour I’ve had in a long time. They’re clearly not shying away from the heat required for these dishes! The curry was one of the recommended items and didn’t disappoint, creamy and thick, rich coconut and peanut flavour that got cooked right into the small bites of chicken. The staff were all smiles and were so attentive! Thank you for a great meal!

This restaurant offers delicious food, with large portions, at an amazing value. I'll be honest, I didn't expect to love the food as much as I did. The sauce in the curry was so rich and flavorful, the meat and vegetables were cooked perfectly, and the sticky rice was a great match. If you're craving Thai food, I highly recommend giving this place a try. I will say, however, the restaurant could use a few upgrades in decor, and serving water in beer glasses was an odd choice.
