It's a special treat when we are coming to the South End to dine at our favorite restaurant. Food is an eclectic taste sensation and the service never disappoints. The best experience each time!

The experience here for DOB was overall great. LOVED the appetizers. I wish they put more beef in the Beef Bourguignon but they taste was good. The entrees we ordered weren't wowing but we I ate all of mine because the chicken dish was still decent. The ambience was also nice but we just wished there was more culturalism to the decor. I had the Raspberry 75 which was 10/10. And for dessert we had the chocolate cake and the coconut pudding which were both good as well! Lastly, our waitress was the sweetest!

I used to frequent this spot back in my med school days, but somehow hadn't been back in years. Last night, on a whim, I decided to stop in for dinner—and wow, I'm so glad I did! Everything exceeded my already fond memories. The drinks were expertly crafted—delicious, perfectly balanced, and with just the right kick. The food was outstanding: authentic, full of bold, well-seasoned flavors that tasted like they came straight from the heart of the cuisine. This place has only gotten better with time.

The restaurant has many dishes that are celiac - gluten free. The service and timing of courses is great. I actually knew most if not all the songs on the playlist which was bonus for reminiscing about our younger days.

This was my first time at Elephant walk for Dine out Boston. I will definitely be back. Our server was very friendly and helpful in picking out orders. The food was delicious! The spring rolls are a must for a starter they were delicious and the house made hot sauces were so good too!! I also had the Bai Mouan which was so tasty. The meal felt so fresh and light while being filling and comforting. I would def recommend!

Thoroughly enjoyed the flavors and the chance to explore. We don't get to Boston often but always make it a point to eat here.

It was very cold up Front and the server said the a/c could not be adjusted. We moved to the back where temp was better. It was Dine Out Boston and dinner was good and a good deal. Grateful for vegetarian options tho perhaps Not Fully realized as we had been Told Cambodian stronger than French offerings Desserts were very good especially the poached pear which was exceptional.

Food was good for what was offered. I'm a full blooded Cambodian myself and wanted to see how another restaurant would cook our native dishes. Cambodian food is an acquired taste that utilizes a lot of pungent ingredients not made for the faint of heart lol. But they tamed some of the ingredients a bit making it a more palatable experience for those that may find the ingredients to be a bit much. So that did take away some of the flavor profiles that I expect from our native dishes. But other than that, drinks were amazing and server was super nice. Would come back again and try the French dishes next time.

Food was disappointing. I'm sure my trout had been frozen, there was no depth to the marinade - seemed like someone had painted some jalapeño across the top as an afterthought - and the sauce on my wifes prawn curry was bland. Interior was cold and music was jarring eighties and too loud for an enjoyable meal.

A great restaurant. Wonderful staff that has not changed for years. Terrific bartender drinks, and a unique delicious menu. ...That is consistent.. Oh

Chicken was dry to the point of inedible. Service forgot sauces and generally seemed ambivalent. Restaurant looked dirty with debris left all over entry and unclean bathrooms. Went to old location years ago and memory did not serve us well. We will not return - very disappointing meal. Server cleared full bowls of soup without an acknowledgement that they were barely touched. One member of our party was very sick after eating here - absolutely a no-go now. This restaurant has gone way down hill.

Love the experience at Elephant Walk. The menu changes with unique specials. Don is the best Bartender and the staff is friendly and welcoming. Get the spring rolls (Rouloux) to start !

Shawn

The food was not good. We tried 4 different dishes and I have to say I could barely eat half of what we ordered. I can not recommend. The restaurant was full and others seemed to be enjoying themselves, but the more I thought about it the food was bad.
