Great family-owned restaurant. Our favorite place for Thai food. Ning, the owner, prepares a variety of classic Thai dishes and offers new takes on classic flavors. Try the Happy Wraps, Ning's Wings, any Curry, Peanut Chicken Rama Noodles and don't forget Mangoes and Sticky Rice.

Our office is around the corner from Happy elephant. We absolutely love it there! The people who own it are incredibly easy to work with & so friendly. We are happy to have such a yummy restaurant so close by.I personally love their take on Orange & lime Chicken. I haven't had it that way anywhere else. It's SOOOO good.

We love Happy Elephant, the food is always delicious and fresh and a local favorite. My wife has a gluten allergy and they always try to accommodate and almost everything on the menu can be modified to make it gluten free. I highly recommend you try them out, you won’t be disappointed!Dietary restrictions: Many items on the menu can be made gluten free and the staff are great to listen and explain ingredients.Parking: Large parking lot

I really wanted to like this place and have ordered here several times over the past five years because it's local. We are a noodle family - Pad Thai, Pad see ew, drunken noodles, peanut Rama. Lately all the items have been dry, barely sauced. They also are very heavy on the noodles - not so much on the veggies and meat. Even when I've requested and paid for extra sauce they still skimp. Was in the pacific NW recently and was reminded of authentic excellent Thai cuisine - this isn't it. Head to downtown Roselle instead, prices are comparable and the food quality and taste is way better. Also FYI, COVID they closed the indoor seating, so they are open for take out only.

We also had them cater our wedding, because I’m such a fan!Dietary restrictions: Having Celiac, I know I’m always safe ordering here!Kid-friendliness: Warm and welcome environment
