My family and I enjoyed a wonderful meal at the Golden Elephant this week.
Authentic, flavoursome, Thai cuisine, with very generous portions. Very pleasant ambience. I couldn't speak more highly of the friendly, attentive staff, who couldn't do enough for us.

They served the best tom yum soup I have had anywhere in the world outside of Thailand. Truly spectacular flavor.

We had a great meal at Golden Elephant. The basil duck was excellent, and the soft shell crab really stood out - crispy, flavourful, and cooked perfectly. The food was great overall, portions were very generous, and the prices felt very fair for the quality. Even on a very busy night, we were well looked after, and the atmosphere was comfortable and relaxed while waiting. Definitely a place we’d happily return to.

Golden Elephant in Douglas is a fantastic spot for authentic Thai food, with a simple yet incredibly flavourful menu. The Tom Yum soup was outstanding and packed with bold taste. The spicy peppercorn wok fry and the ginger tofu & veg stir-fry were absolutely delicious, and the udon noodles were perfectly cooked and very satisfying.
The food is worth every penny—especially the pineapple fried rice, which was excellent! The service truly stands out too. The staff are warm and welcoming, and Fang takes the time to explain dishes and genuinely listens to customers, which makes the whole experience even better. Highly recommend! 😊🍍🍜

Still exceptional 👍
Have not been here for years as moved away from city. Remains one of the best places to eat and worth the drive into Cork, all tables full on a Tuesday which is a good sign. Every dish cooked and presented perfectly
