Green Elephant Gourmet is a laid-back restaurant with beautiful tableware, including China plates and English teapots. The menu offers delicious Burmese and Cantonese dishes, such as the tealeaf salad, great for sharing, and eggplant dishes that are hard to beat. The cumin lamb is a standout option. The restaurant also serves generous lunch specials like Kung Po Chicken, which come with salad, rice, and vegetables, offering good value for about $20. Customers praise the food for its taste and freshness, especially noting the best wonton soup with large shrimp, big chunks of pork, and big wontons packed with filling. The dishes are prepared very well and reasonably priced. The staff are gracious, and service is prompt, making it feel like dining at someone's home. The ambiance is cozy and suitable for family dining, though the tall glassware can be a bit tricky to pass around shared dishes. Overall, Green Elephant Gourmet is a friendly neighborhood Asian restaurant with a diverse and tasty menu.
