The restaurant itself is small. Which could be a good or bad thing. If it's not packed then it feels more intimate. If it is... it's a bit loud and crowded. When our party of 5 went it was really busy with only one server. With that being said our serverdid an amazing job to be the only person working the floor. The food is very tasty and authentic. Additionally, any of the meatdishes can be substituted with tofu. Read more

Food was delicious, service was fast and friendly. I had the coconut soup and red curry duck with rice and vegetables. I can't... wait to go back when I'm back in town. Read more

This food is addictive! Every bite gets better and better! The portions are absolutely amazing and the food is even better. GO... HERE! Best Thai food ever. One portion is more than enough for two people. It?s not possible to eat all of this in one sitting. Read more

A small place with amazing food. Reasonably priced as well. Accidentally discovered and was found to be having an amazing... variety of food. Food lives up to our expectation of Thai food, because at various places claiming to be genuine Thai food, wehave felt cheated in the past. This place was excellent. Good portions were on the higher side. Two dishes for 3 people Shouldsuffice. Ample parking space, does not take reservations and serves very good quality authentic Thai food. Not far from thefreeway too. Just 8 miles inside. Has received multiple awards in the past. Must go to place if one is in and around Nashville. Read more

This has got to be one of the best Thai restaurants that I have ever visited. The server was prompt friendly and very... informative. Most items on the menu are vegan accommodated. The alluring smell coming from the kitchen filled the restaurantand the street. Lemongrass soup was well seasoned their spring rolls were bright fresh and crisp. The bao buns are to die for, Irecommend the pork and cabbage. Pad Thai was so good it almost made me cry. If I ever visit Nashville again this is my spot Read more

We placed an order for pickup and everything came out right! The portions were big and the food smelled and tasted... delicious. Here?s what I tried: - Tom Kha ($4.95, or +$3 as part of a set with dish from signature menu): So warm andcomforting! - Smiling Elephant Pad Thai with chicken ($15.95): Super good! I wouldn?t go so far as to say it?s the best I?veever had though. - Pad See-Ew with chicken ($15.95): Delicious! - Red Curry ($15.95): Very good! - Fresh Roll ($4.95): Fine, butI don?t feel the need to get it again. I recommend Smiling Elephant! Read more

Hands down one of the BEST Thai restaurants in Nashville. Cozy seating in a small restaurant but it works. Parking is limited... but totally worth it. Service is fine but the food is AMAZING. Great flavors all around! The noodle portions are massive! Read more
