Little Elephant Thai Restaurant in Eastbourne

The best Thai restaurant in the south east. All of the food is great and authentic as well as having very friendly staff.

What a find! Fantastic Thai restaurant at the top of Grove Road and for a Monday night, busy.We started the Elephant Platter (no eles involved thankfully 😄) which consisted of chicken satay, spring rolls, dim sum and prawn toasts like you've never tasted.For main, I had crispy duck in a plum and tamarind sauce with veg and jasmine rice. My God the flavour was extraordinary and difficult to describe!Hubby had the massaman lamb shank which was very good.I had 2 glasses of their gorgeous Merlot; hubby had tonic.Next time I'd like to have the red from Monsoon Valley, Thailand, a range of wines you don't often see but are terrific.The fact they don't do dessert is actually a blessing! We'll definitely be back

Just left this place with my family. Honestly, amazing atmosphere. Family business, and you can actually feel it. Great food, lovely service and honest smiles throughout. Worth coming all the way from London!Thank you! ♡

Had an early dinner here with friends. Food was lovely with great flavours and also has an extensive vegan menu. Would have given 5* but there are no desserts 😢

What an great place to eat !Entire family was pleased with all the different dishes we ordered. Staff amazingly friendlyWould highly recommend !I for sure will visit again

My first time here celebrating moving to Eastbourne 1 year ago. I don’t know why I haven’t been before? The service and food were excellent and it was noticeable that everything was home made and not out of the freezer. Different dishes to most other Thai restaurants I’ve visited and definitely better. Will be back.

Amazing food. Lamb shank massaman well worth the money. First time here and will definitely be returning

I had the most beautiful vegetarian meal here this evening. The coconut milk curry soup was so satisfying, perfectly spiced. My ribbon noodles were out of this world. I cannot wait to return!

Stumbled upon this gem after a 7 hour hike along the cliffs, in dire need of some hot comforting food, and this place really delivered. Although some dishes were perhaps a little too sweet for my taste, each dish was beautifully cooked to perfection. Masaman lamb shank curry which fell right off the bone, that the Pineapple rice and Tom Kha soup was perfectly seasoned, and the way the crispy squid wasn't overcooked but practically melted on the tongue while retaining its crispy exterior, really showcased the chef's skills and techniques that night. Definitely will be coming here again the next time we're in the area!

This restarunt would not be out of place in up market London. It’s Exceptional.Satay chicken and prawn starter mix is delicious, the duck spring rolls are really meaty and full of flavour.We had 3 mains to share between to but could not finish them. The massaman lamb shank, cooked to perfection and full of flavour, slow braised beef and the noodles cooked in dark oyster sauce are amazing.Service was good from start to finish, they let us know a big part was arriving shortly after us so we knew to get our order in.Highly recommend.
