Elephant Thai Short Pump

Very disappointed in this place. I’m traveling for work and was craving Thai food. When I walked in the personnel behind the counter acted like she didn’t want to seat me. Then she said to go sit at a corner table. I asked her if I can sit somewhere else her expression was of inconvenience. Then when she brought my menu she said it will be 30-40min before I got my food that they are really busy!!!! Ummm it was only 6 tables filled and everyone had their food ???? it was obvious they didn’t want to serve me, so I left. This place is not recommended for customer service…….

Food is fine, but the serving sizes for some items is RIDICULOUS and not at all worth the price. I ordered mango ice cream and got the smallest scoop ever for $6. I could have gotten a freakin' PINT of Ben & Jerry's for that price and gotten 6x more! And when you call the restaurant, the response is, "What do you want me to do about it?" Even before they knew I ordered through UberEats. And UberEats basically said, 'yeah, sorry. Not gonna help you with this, better luck next time.' Though that time, I paraphrased. So just keep in mind that this is what $6 of ice cream looks like to Elephant Thai's employees.

4.5 stars - The takeout food was attractive and tasty, as well as well-packaged/secure. I had green curry with shrimp. I usually get American hot at the other 3 Thai restaurants I go to frequently, but I chose to go with medium just in case since I haven't eaten here before and planned to add hot chili oil at home if needed. Well, it was NOT needed. That was the hottest Thai medium green curry I've have ever had, and I've had a lot. Very tasty but hotter than I prefer while graded less spicy than I typically order. The papaya salad (pictured) is lovely. Refreshingly tart plus spicy. Very nice. The one traditional sushi roll I ordered was PERECT. Miso soup was very good. I'd definitely go again and would be willing to try other dishes. I recommend caution with the level of spicy. If my experience is an indication of the typical spice level here, I would downgrade my spicy level on all future orders.
