My all-time favorite!! Crispy duck is a must try. Sticky rice of 3 different colors convey nuanced flavor differences. The mango-shaped mango ice cream amazes me with their thoughts into food presentation!

Food was very delicious- everything from drinks, apps, entrée and dessert was very flavorful. The staff was very attentive and friendly. Price was reasonable

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!

Went there for dinner this evening… My first time eating there, the atmosphere was very nice and was very impressed with the food. The presentation was fantastic and the flavors were absolutely wonderful! I had the Drunken Noodles and the Fried Cheesecake. A++ on the food. My only other comment are the Hosts are young teenagers who don’t understand that the guests just want to relax and spend 30-45 being treated with respect and be spoiled just a little bit and not just ask if a booth is ok drop the menu and walk away, it was the same with the food delivery. It just felt a little awkward in that respect. The actual waitresses were very nice. However, if you asked me if I would I go back? Absolutely, YES!

Amazing, authentic Thai food to try when you are in Watkins Glen. They did not require reservations and have a lot of seating available. Service was quick and friendly. We tried the stir fried entree with garlic sauce, tofu and vegetables, panang curry and for dessert, we tried the famous & seasonal, mango sticky rice. All dishes had great taste & portion size and were also great value for money.

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. *No alcoholic beverages, just a side note to keep in mind!

Best Thai food I've had to date. Everything was fresh and good quality. I had the Thai dumplings and green cury at the heat level Thai hot 🔥. Both were absolutely wonderful very yummy. Next time I would get it medium only because my eyes and nose were really running! Also pictured the spring roll, sweet and sour chicken and the ginger chicken Could have a few more dumplings in the appetizer, 4 is not very much. If your thinking about going, just go, this place is great. I left feeling mostly full of great tasting food and that I paid a fair price.

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.

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.

Thai Elephants is a long standing Thai restaurant in the heart of Watkins Glen, bringing authentic thai cuisine to the area. The staff are friendly and are quick with service, with the decor standing out with many things themed after Thai stuff. The food was alright, pretty average for a Thai restaurant you could find elsewhere, with a good thai tea and overall tasty food for the price.

We came here for lunch when visiting Glen Watkins, excellent food and ambience. Loved their fried rice. The only suggestion I have is to increase their portion sizes. I didn't feel full after having their fried rice, so if you are not planning to order appetizers or Soups it won't be enough. So keep that in mind. Please like my review if you find it helpful.

Stop by for early dinner, we had the massaman curry, veggies tofu Penang curry, appetizers sampler, tom ka soup, wonton soup and chicken Thai fried rice, chicken pra ram and Thai ice tea. So the portion for chicken Thai fried rice was way too small, literally the size of a small cup. Both cup of soup was pretty tasty, over all and the Massaman curry was slightly watery. The Penang curry was probably the best dish out of our meal. The Chicken Pra Ram was sliced chicken with the thick peanut sauce, with was overly sweet IMO. The Thai ice tea was cute as you pour the tiny elephant cup that has the cream. So you can judge for your self on the portion size if you ever ordered fried rice.

We tried the Thai Basil and Garlic Chicken at Thai Elephant, but unfortunately, it was way too sweet for our taste. Usually, Thai basil dishes come with chili in fish sauce, but they didn’t have that here, which felt a bit off. Half of the basil tasted like syrup, so we couldn’t really eat it. Definitely not what we expected.

Stopped by for dinner while visiting Watkins Glen. The place is small and there was a long wait. The food was average, nothing over the top. It is BYOB so that’s a plus.
