Thai Elephant Restaurant, Atascadero CA

Really good pad Thai, drunken noodles and Thai tea but if you're going to eat with the family a bit too pricey might be the current state of the country tax inflation but overall good food

Best Thai in north county. I love Thai food and even went to Thailand and this place is legit.

This is literally my favourite and most visited place in SLO county. For real, every single person I brought here enjoys their food and loves their tasteful decorations. This place got authentic Thai flavor upon request (in terms of the use of fish sauce and Thai chili, like that), friendly hosts, a nice patio that suits your family/friend gatherings. You may also consider it your source of ultimate comfort foods:)

Thank you (Thai Elephant Atascadero!) for adding a bright color to my past 3 years of attending Cal Poly. Now that I've graduated, I will really be missing this place. Pictures were from our multiple visits over the years, and I have. Probably too many of these.

*STRONGLY RECOMMEND*
*Eggplant, Crispy Duck, Drunken Noodle*

(However, I personally had never had any dish from this restaurant that I didn't enjoy)

This is easily the best Thai food restaurant in town, maybe even the county. Its very authentic and well made food, the portions are generous and theborices are very fair. 2 people can get lunch for less than 40$ here and leave full (that includes the tip even). Only negative I can think of is that their main searing area can get loud when its full but theres patio seating thats outside covered too and it very nice. If youre looking for good authentic Thai, with quality service and quick prep times you gotta try Thai Elephant.

This place gets 5 stars. Stopped here right before closing on a Sunday. The covered patio put back was wonderful. Beautiful plants and new shade cover. The food was great. Gluten free menu options listed and knowledgeable friendly staff. I had the Thai chili basil chicken and prorations were good and food very tasty. I will come back and recommend.

The Thai Elephant restaurant in Atascadero is a good representative Thai facility serving very good authentic food. I had the Pad Thai with the wide noodles which is my favorite. I can recommend a stop here when in town.

I love this place just tonight I felt very unhappy about my experience here, I called in for my favorite green curry hot with shrimp and Thai tea, I was told to hurry at 8: 20 that my order will be ready cause they are closing soon, then when I got there I had to wait anyways, on my way out I was polite and said thank you have a goodnight and the guy just shrugged it off, I honestly should have gotten a pizza ngl

Ps also was never offered any utensils just idk if I will be back

Disappointed. Tum yum shrimp soup had canned mushrooms, not straw mushrooms, not good lemon grass base. Very bland. Small soup $9.95 not worth it

Great food and service. Menu had a variety of options which served our 3 yo picky eater as well.

Probably the best Thai restaurant in North County. They do catering for very reasonable price, and the food and service in the restaurant is unmatched. We love going here!

The cashew nut chicken flavor can’t be matched. The kitchen really knows how to make it spicy

My family always enjoys the food there, and the servers are very sweet. The noise level when it's busy made conversation difficult (and hearing the Server was hard) but we WILL be back!
