Reviews
A good selection of dim sum, plenty for every taste from steamed to fried. Overall quality is good, some may find it a little bland but the overall taste is there in my opinion. I think the chef is cautious with the salt which is a good thing.nnOrdering is very easy, just tick the ones you want on the menu sheet.nnThe restaurant itself feels a little tired but overall a great find and will be our local dim sum from now on.
Been going to The Thai Elephant since I was about 3 years old in my 30's now. Always loved the food and so happy they started doing dim sum at lunchtime. Fantastic dim sum and great all you can eat off the menu in the evening.
Food was delicious and value for money. Although some dishes was a tad salty. They had really good portion size food, staff was lovely and friendly.
The restaurant owners and workers are welcoming and polite. The food is above average for Chinese food. However the cheung fun’s skin was quite thick and the Hor Fun which seemed to stick together too. The other dishes were quite tasty
I've tried the evening buffet menu and also the afternoon dim sum menu. The food was great on both occasions.nIf you've never had dim sum before, rest assured the menu is also in english and when you sit, it's already on the table waiting for you to just tick off what you want. As with most Chinese restaurants, be brave when you want their attention as they prefer to let you enjoy your food in peace.nWe really liked everything that involved roast pork and were surprised at how good the mixed meat ho fun was. They also do a superb turnip paste with just the right amount of crispyness for my taste.nI enjoyed most of the dishes on the evening menu too and would highly recommend the satay beef and the Japanese tempura prawn and vegetables in particular.nnThe only reason I haven't given this place a 5 star is because the interior could do with an update. It doesn't make the best first impression but the food definitely makes up for it. As Ali Wong says, if you walk into an Asian restaurant and the interior is questionable, you know the food is going to be great.
