service is very good and I like their appetizer mix and soup
Something wasn't quite on target. Flavors and freshness a bit suspect. Unusual because it's always quite good.

My friend got paid to come here, everything was free, and I still wouldn’t go back. Claire’s meets Sweet (literally) sixteen. I’ll order Tribini online next time for an espresso martini.

The people were nice and the decor is lovely. The soup and salad were very good but the chicken used in my main dish and soup was horrible...bone dry and tasteless. I can't imagine how the chef served it. I was with a friend who loved the place and their Pad Thai so I didn't say anything. Their lunch special was ultra expensive. I go to another place with Thai food, a better menu, tasty food, great chicken, more items included in the lunch special for only $10.50. The White Elephant should take a lesson from them. Doubtful if I'll ever go back. Next time my friend asks I will tell her the truth. I'm not going to spend twice the amount for chicken that tastes like old shoes.

Went on a whim on a random Friday night with my sister and mom. Hadn’t been here in almost a decade and everything was amazing. Food, service, and atmosphere was great. Always love their coconut soup. Will be back again.

I have been a huge fan of Thai cousin. For many years I went to Royal Thai Orchid restaurant in Malvern that sadly closed it's doors. White Elephant restaurant as close as I could find to my beloved place. Only one thing I would suggest to the chef - cut your onions and other vegetables thinner for the soup & other dishes. Other than that I have no complains. Food tastes great, service is fantastic, ambience is nice & guitar player was playing nice music. It was a very pleasant experience

Thai food is excellent and sets a high standard for Thai. My go-to’s are the Mango Curry (xxxtra spicy), Crying Tiger Salad (xxxtra spicy), Crispy Roll, and Lemon Grass Soup.
Dessert is well worth what you pay for. Dessert balls on a bed of fruit puree.
I absolutely recommend!

The food is always really delicious and creative. The menu is varied and features daily specials. Love the lemon grass soup! The servers are friendly, attentive (but not too much so), and knowledgeable. Desserts are awesome. We always thoroughly enjoy our dinners at The White Elephant. Highly recommended.

Came in 20 min prior to them closing and they still offered to allow us to dine in. I opted for takeout. They were patient and explained choices on the menu. We waited in the car and the owner walked our food out to us. Then offered to go back inside and get my husband chopsticks. Great service and they went above and beyond!!! We will be going back to dine in!

Excellent Thai cuisine, well prepared,, very consistent. There is also a fine guitarist there (we often go on Wednesday evening) that augments the ambiance.
Love the soups and am particularly fond of an appetizer, “crying tiger”. BYOB and elegant/cssual

Once again we had a delish meal. Attentive service and nice people. We don’t come here often but always a good experience. Just wish I had room for dessert!!
