This is our go-to spot for Thai food on the island! It's not the cheapest place but the complexity of flavors is insane. I like ordering the drunken noodles, pad kra pow, pad thai and eggplant stir fry. All of the dishes can adjust their spiciness, but in my opinion the spicier the better!You can order online or call via phone to place an order but ordering directly from them and if a third-party site will save you a few dollars.The restaurant itself is cute and makes you feel like you're in Thailand!

Ate here recently and was rather disappointed with the Thai basil rice. I ordered the Thai basil rice with pork and medium spice. There was plenty of meat, but it lacked any real flavor. The color of the dish was a very pale yellow. I would not order it again.One of my dining companions order the cashew nut with pork that was outstanding though. A different companion ordered the drunken noodles with chicken which was also good. The staff was nice, especially the male bartender. Parking is a bit small, but after 5 the parking lot at Mathnasium opens up. I'll go back, but I'll have the cashew nut.

We ate at the Red Elephant for the first time last week. We were very impressed with the atmosphere, the service and the excellent food of the restaurant.The two waitstaff we encountered, Toby and Owen were polite, helpful and very well trained.This is our now "go-to-restaurant" for Thai food.

I finally tried this place, it's really nice and comfortable inside, all different and redone from previous Siam Garden. I ordered red curry and sticky rice. It was good, prik nam plaa helped it was a little bland, no kaffir or galanga, but I had it with chicken and it was good, not great. I'll go back and try some other dishes, staff are really nice.

Very cool environment to see that a huge tree built around from inside the shop. Lol if that makes sense. Presentation of food and taste id give it a 8/10. Food was amazing. We did come on a busy Valentine's Day so the long wait was expected. We were given a sticky rice mango for the wait. We was just chillin.. Over all if you want a good Thai soup mine was bomb. They have Plant based options and meat options for both parties. So definitely a good place to check out!

5th star for the service and attention at the from of the house I've been here on a few occasions and never got around to penning my review. So here goes- Located at the north western gateway to Kaimuki is a red building, home to the Red Elephant. If that direction doesn't help you, then know it is on Waialae before you hit MacDonald's. If you pass Mac Donald's, you've gone to far. And if that doesn't help you, then know it is on the north side of Waialae Ave, across the street from the Kaimuki Center; where Times, Longs, Hi State FCU and other merchants are located. OK, now that we all know where they are located, let's go on about the food.Mild Medium and Hot are the levels for the sauces and curries.Portions are relatively large so you're better off going with a few and dine "family style".Fish patties and egg rolls are pretty basic at most Thai restaurants including the Red Elephant. If you're lucky enough to dine with those who know Thai cuisine then, you will be able to graze through their ethnic dishes with no problem (just remember! Mild Medium and Hot.... be sure you get that specified)

Phone lines get very very busy on a Sunday evening at 7-8pm. Had to go to the physical location to order takeout. Very kitsch ambiance and vibe, with a lot of young diners. Parking entrance is directly to the left of the lit up red building, and additional parking at the Mathnasium building further left. Parking is tight..Ordered the drunken noodles with shrimp, green curry with chicken and pad pring king with beef. Be easy on the staff - they were constantly running around attending to some service or another. Took a while for the food to be ready however staff were very kind and gave me a complimentary thai ice tea! Which was surprisingly very strong, not to sweet which was very much to my liking. Food was top notch, piping hot, and I inhaled it all! Had enough leftovers for another filling meal! Price points are a little high, but not terrible. The shrimp was fresh! As were the veggies. And the beef did not taste gummy at all. The beef stir fry had that smokey taste from the wok which was very good. One of the best Thai foods in town, very very high up!

Are you a fan of Thai food?I don't know about you folks, but I am proud to say that I do enjoy Thai food (although I am not an expert in Thai cuisine). If ya wanna follow someone who knows Thai cuisine, check out my Yelp buddy - Peter Y.'s review. Besides my normal Thai restaurants I hit up at Market City Shopping Center, or the other Thai restaurants in the Pucks Alley area, "Red Elephant Thai Cuisine" was another Thai restaurant I had on my radar for the longest time, but I kinda held back from coming here.Why did I hold back? Because I was worried about the parking situation. But the parking issue is now solved, as I found out that this Thai restaurant actually had a private parking lot in the back of the restaurant. Just look for a "yellow flag" type of sign that says "parking," & upon driving your car off of Waialae Ave., follow a little alley/driveway that will lead you to a private parking lot.Where is the Red Elephant Thai Cuisine located?Ya can't miss it! If you know where the Kaimuki Shopping Center is, it's just across the street (mauka side), as you will see a very bright red looking house, and that is where you'll find this wonderful Thai restaurant.I met up with my lunch buddy for lunch while I was on vacation, as both of us have never been to this Thai restaurant before. The restaurant was quite cozy looking and clean. It was beautifully decorated and had both outdoor & indoor seating.The day we dined here, we elected to do indoor seating because the host had mentioned to us that if we ate outdoors (there could be flies).Upon getting seated, the menu & water were delivered quickly. After looking over the menu, we ordered the following items :1. Thai style Frrrrrrried Chicken. 2. Stir-Fry Vegetables with Chicken. 3. Pad Thai with Shrimp.What can I say about the grub?You don't have to guess what I would say about Frrrrrrried Chicken! If it's frrrrrried & chicken, garans Bruddah Fran is 1st in line!The vegetable stir-fry was delicious, but maybe I should have ordered it with some rice? Or sticky rice?As for the Pad Thai noodles, although it was good, it sorta had a tangy/ketchupy (I make up my own words! Lol) taste, which is not my bag, baby.Nice decor, great service (but we were the only ones eating lunch in the restaurant that day, Lol!), & delicious Thai grub.Overall, it was a great meal! Minus da tangy ketchupy Pad Thai! Lol!
