Really wide menu with lots of choices. Everything is delicious and the prices are the best in town. We go every week or two.

The lunch buffet is amazingly delicious, and a good value. But you cannot serve your own plate. The server serves huge portions, which is not good if you want to sample small amounts of everything. I tried to tell her to give me a small amount, but she didn't understand English, and I don't speak Thai.

The atmosphere was great, the staff friendly and helpful, and the food and drinks amazing. The appetizer Crying Tiger was so very tender. The Drunken Noodle (with pork) was filling for my roommate, and the Basil Stir Fry dish (with chicken) was one of the best meals I've eaten this year. We both ate our fill and had leftovers to take home, so I'm very happy with the portions. Spice level 3 (out of 5) was perfect for both of us - the spiciness built as we ate.I look forward to going back and trying more!

Whenever we’ve gotten our dinner to-go they take forever and don’t acknowledge us for a long time. We asked for medium spice on the pad Thai and it was so spicy that it was not edible. I like spicy foods but this was way too hot and no way was a true “medium” IMO.

Came here for dinner on Friday! Cute inside and an amazingly friendly staff. They were so attentive! The food was good, but the happy hour is definitely where it's at! Great deals! Definitely recommend!

We all got 5 different dishes and it was so gross. We spent $150 and the only thing we could eat was the Curry with Duck. I dont know a whole lot of Thai places so I can't really compare it. But it messed with our stomachs too. I guess we weren't used to it. The website had pictures of sushi and there wasn't any. It was one guy serving so we we're there for an hour and a half. I rarely give a bad rating because I know it messes with the rating, but I'm telling you. Don't bother.

Nice restaurant. Clean. Just passing through and stopped in. I ordered drunken noodle with broccoli and xhikem with medium spice. Great flavor. The employee was nice.

My wife and I have been returning here since 2019 (Pre-Covid). It now holds the distinction of being the ONLY Thai lunch buffet in Richmond and Hopewell. If buffets are your thing and you love Thai food, prepare to be amazed. Unlimited authentic delicious Thai cuisine from appetizers to dessert plus freshly made sushi. All for $13.95 (as of today, Jan. 25 2024). I could eat there everyday! Thank you and more power to you and your wonderful staff, Elephant Thai Broad Street! You are truly a source of pride and joy for Richmond!
Very lovely atmosphere, decor is a plus; the management is positive and fair. Great location.

I love the atmosphere and decor in this fine establishment! Not only is it beautifully decorated inside, they have an outdoor patio for those that enjoy that option! We dined in so we enjoyed some complimentary rice crackers they melt in your mouth and are slightly salty. For an appetizer we had an order of curry puffs, these were 2 flavor bombs, you only get 2 but they are freshly fried. The Thai crispy chicken is coated in a Tamarind sauce which is sweet and a little tangy but the chicken was juicy and a light crisp but delicious. The drunken noodles with beef were pretty good, it has an assortment of bell peppers and it was a touch spicy but you can request it be more spicy but mine was a level 2 and it was just enough for me. They have a buffet during the week and happy hour from 5-8. This is definitely a place to check out! They even have a small shop
