This restaurant did not disappoint, we were seated at the bar due to how busy the restaurant was but the outdoor seating which patio heaters was really nice. Shared tables are quite common.We order d the BBQ chicken, sounds boring but it really wasnt, full of flavour similar to other Gai Yang that we have had in the past. The Pad Thai was good but have had better. Their new spicy seafood fried rice, medium spice level, was complimented the flavours of the dish. The Barramundi deep fried chilli and tamarind fish was delicious. Perfectly cooked, delicately flavoured with the tamarind sauce on the side. I really appreciated this as it allows you to decide how much sauce you wish to use.Overall, the food was very good as well as the friendly service. Would come back, if ever in Brisbane again.
Great food, reasonably priced and really sweet staff. We got a pad thai and shitake mushroom stir fry to share; the pad Thai was a bit better than the stir fry but they were both good. It was quite busy but the food didn’t take too long to come and it was a comfortable place to sit and chat.
Visited Phat Elephant on a Wednesday night with some friends. Besides the chicken skewers which l thought was dry and blend l loved everything else. We did request thai hot for some meals which came out mild but it still tasted nice. So my rating is only based on the food itself. I found the service to be poor. We won’t informed when l made the reservation that they stop cooking at 9pm so we felt rushed from the start. We wont informed that they had to remove all alcohol at 9:45pm so again we felt rushed. My only issue here is that they need to work on their communication skills a bit better.
I had the sea food fried rice, the flavours were great and plenty of sea food in the dish. Unfortunately the dish was too spicy. I am someone who can tolerate spicy so I asked for medium spicy and yet it was too spicy for me. My friend ordered the same with mild spicy and it was too spicy for her as well. This is a great place for Thai in Brisbane. However need to be careful about the spicy levels
Had a really wonderful dinner here. They had a great beef massaman curry. The crispy pork belly was crispy, but a tad too hard to chew. The pad Thai was decent but not the best I’ve had. It could afford to have a spicy kick. The service was great too as they were really accommodating for a birthday celebration.
Thai at its best!!Its rare that I give 5 Stars, but Phat Elephant deserves it! This place is so good I came here 2 nights in a row! My partner and I were in Brisbane on a work trip and came here for a late dinner and were very impressed!We came on a Saturday evening and on offer were 50c chicken wings! YES PLEASE!!We had 10 wings, some rice, vegetables and a curry to share. Everything was incredible! Amazing flavours! The food was delicious and fresh and fun! And the total bill for the two of us came to $33!!!The atmosphere is buzzing and everyone is happy, the wait staff are super prompt and always helpful. Even the water is good!! Super cold from the fridge poured into little tin cups! This place is happening!! And its fun!! Love it!!Highly recommended!!
Nice fresh and fragrant Thai food. Service here is very quick and helpful, even if the place is busy they seem to manage very well. I feel like their salads are what they do best, the beef salad was bursting with fresh herbs and spice and the papaya salad was excellent too. The curries could use a bit more punch in terms of heat but maybe that is just my taste buds that crave the chili…
