We wanted a break from the abundant American cuisine in the area and after hiking all morning through the gorge, we were ready for some Thai food.
We came for lunch. I started off with the Larb salad which was fresh and flavorful, spice level is customizable. My partner tried it for the first time and really liked it. It’s light and healthy and I could probably eat this salad every day. We also got the fried tofu appetizer which came with a sweet peanut sauce. My go-to is tofu pad see ew pretty much every Thai place I go and Thai Elephants didn’t disappoint! My partner got the chicken pad see ew. We both left very satisfied, everything came out fresh, and service is efficient and friendly.

Great Thai food in Glen Watkins. Definitely recommend this place. Service is quick and food so delicious.
We had Tom yum soup, crispy chicken appetizer and basil Thai chicken fried rice. All of them sooo good. Also the prices are very good.

Ordered takeout from Thai Elephant and tried the drunken noodles and shrimp fried rice. Taste was really good… fresh, flavorful, and well-seasoned. Definitely satisfied on the flavor side. The only downside is the portion size felt a bit small for the price, so it didn’t feel like the best value. Overall though, food quality is solid and I’d still go back for the taste.

Thai Elephants is an exceptional, authentic Thai restaurant with incredibly fresh and flavorful cuisine!! We ended up ordering Fresh Summer rolls and Drunken Noodles. Some of the BEST food I’ve ever eaten!! I’m tempted to reorder another entire meal!
The fried ice cream was no exception either! A very cool presentation, with equally impressive and complex flavor! YUM!

We got two meals, tea, and their sampler app. Everything was great. The entree portions are reasonable but not generous. We felt well filled with the addition of the appetizer though. We would definitely go back

This restaurant has the best Thai Food in the area.
Seating is cramped for groups greater than 4. We came with 6.
We ordered the pineapple fried rice, drunken noodles with chicken and beef, panang and red curry, tom kha (coconut not spicy) soup w shrimp, and calamari.
All the food was delicious and the pineapple fried rice stood out as the group favorite. The mano sticky rice was beautifully presented and we were lucky they had the perfect ripe mangos in season.
A few comments on the food. The ratio of veggies to curry/meat/rice was off. There were too many veggies included that made it difficult to enjoy the rest of the meal especially for the curries.
The restaurant is made for individuals and not family style. We wanted to share the options as a group and has to request extra items multiple times.

Visiting Watkins Glen for a few days and this spot had so many great ratings – we had to try it. It was amazing! Very authentic Thai flavours, the spot is cozy and welcoming and all the staff were incredibly kind. We started with the Thai dumplings, Tom yum soup and chicken satay with peanut sauce. All amazing, fresh flavours. We also got the drunken noodles and panang curry, so delicious.
A gem of a spot in town! Would love to visit again.

alcoholic beverages, just a side note to keep in mind!

We came here for dinner after a day of wineries. The food was very good. We were seated immediately and ordered very shortly after. The wait staff was very friendly and helped with recommending spicy versus non-spicy dishes. Thai Elephants has been on my list of places to visit and we weren’t disappointed. We will return!

This is, without a doubt, the best Thai food I have ever had. Our party of eight thoroughly enjoyed a fantastic meal, sharing numerous delicious appetizers before diving into our individual entrees. My red curry with shrimp was simply outstanding – a true “wow” moment.
Beyond the incredible food, the ambience was truly authentic and inviting, and the service was top-notch. Every aspect of our dining experience was exceptional. Highly, highly recommend!
