Thai Elephant in Bromley

The food was ok, it's a set price, eat what you want. They run out of a beef dish early in the evening, and just left it off the order, without telling us. Quite slow in bringing the courses out. It's value for money and was busy, so it's obviously popular.

Wonderful meal....all made in house. A real treat of tasty morsels. Staff friendly and very helpful. A great experience. Would highly recommend

The size of the place is not so spacious, but still can be seated comfortably between tables. Friendly, helpful service. Despite the limited options in dim sum, they are delicious nonetheless. Recommendable.

Very stingy dishes,you order a prawn meal, and it on had 2 prawns.waited 25 minutes for my main course, lost my appetite. Which I'm shore was there plan . 2nd time I went won't go again. Menu was covered in someone else food . Place need a good clean skirting boards are rotten.

The dim sum from the Thai elephant is next level amazing! It's all made in house and fresh to order.Honestly it's the best dim sum I've eaten. And I've eaten a lot of dim sum. And a lot of dim sum in China Town.It's also excellent value for money and the staff are always lovely!You will not be disappointed!!

We go to this restaurant regularly but first time to give feedback. The dim sum is fantastic comparable to the best one in China town. If you like authentic Chinese dim sum, you must give it a try here. In the evening, the buffet is also very good. Large variety of Chinese and Thal dishes to choose from. Staff are very friendly, excellent service. Highly recommended.

One of the very best dim sum restaurants in the UK. Really really high quality food. It's like having dim sum in Hong Kong.

Amazing food, really nice staff. Fresh ingredients. Excellent definitely worth a try! I'm definitely coming back.

Outstanding service and exquisite tasting dim sums!!! The Thai Elephant management should be proud of the staff, as Chinese/Thai restaurants are notorious for an impersonal robotic service, however your staff are amiable, attentive, helpful, and knowledgeable (while not being overbearing), and maintaining a professional distance. Looking forward to our next visit!

It may just blend into the background from the outside but Thai elephant is without a doubt one of the best dining out restaurants for Thai cuisine, for miles around. They offer a great which is closer to an a la carte style, than it is to a buffet. There are no wasteful cutlery practises as napkins are not horrible paper sheet but instead are reusable and super soft, they are normally folded into a fan and the whole table is set before you are seated, this include reusable plastic chopsticks, rather than disposable, cheap wooden ones.It is always a good experience coming into the Thai Elephant as the service is usually very good and food is always to a great standard and the last venture there did not disappoint. The way the menu works is that for one set price of around £17.00 per adult you can order as many items as you want of the menu which has over 100 different items. The meal is usually split into starter, a duck course (which is usually offered after ordering starters) , main course and then dessert.In terms of the taste and presentation the food is AMAZING. If you like Thai cuisine you will love this place, they do also offer a selection of other cuisines such as Indonesian, Malaysian, and Chinese. Everything is so full of flavour and always fresh, the ribs just fall of the bone and the tofu is coated in flavour and crispy on the outside. There are certain items that I have not tried yet as there are so many its almost impossible to try everything however this restaurant is definitely a great experience if you are looking to try new foods as you’ll have over 100 to choose from. The duck course is always amazing with a nice amount of duck being provided for two along with plenty of pancakes, spring onions, cucumber and of course hoisin sauce. The portion sizes do change depending on the size of the party, for example if there are four of you there may be four PAN DAN KAI portions whereas for two people you will receive two PAN DAN KAI portions, this may seem obvious but it does mean that it’s difficult to give an accurate view of the portion sizes overall, however as a party of two the portion sizes have NEVER been too little if anything they have got it spot on and you can always just order more of any one item, if wanted to. This also saves on waste, so bonus points from me. The service is usually great with staff often keep their distance from the tables until needed and don’t pester you whilst eating, the only time that service can become slow is when they are really busy but this is to be expected and cannot really be helped. The staff often give great advice on food items on the menu and give suggests based on your taste preference. On our most recent trip I ordered a drink and the glass appeared to have fluff on the inside and after I showed it to them it, both the glass and drink were replaced without an issue.My only issues are not related to the food or service but the drinks menu could benefit from having a wider selection of beers, however the current selection is in theme with the restaurant cuisine so this choice makes sense but some more choice that fits would be a great addition. The only other issue is that the decor inside and out could do with a little sprucing up, there is a great variety of paintings and items that are great and give off a good tone but the walls in general could do with a bit of paint, and a little bit of TLC for the outside.My personal favourite dishes areStarters - PAN DAN KAI, Tempura Mix (Veg, Prawns and Mushrooms) and TofuMains - TOM YUM Soup and Beef RendangDessert – Banana Fritters and Ice Cream
