Nestled a few blocks from the beach, Siam Elephant delights diners with its friendly service and aromatic Thai cuisine. While recent ownership changes raised concerns about food quality, many guests still rave about standout dishes such as Massamam Curry, Tom Kha Soup, and spicy fried noodles. The cozy ambiance makes it an ideal date spot, and outdoor seating enhances the experience. Although some find the Pad Thai overly oily and menu portions puzzling, the overall vibe remains upbeat, with patrons appreciating the staff’s attentiveness and the restaurant's strong ties to the local community. Recommended for anyone craving delicious, affordable Thai fare!.

For many years this has been our go-to spot when visiting Carpinteria.A bowl of hot Shrimp Tom Kha with rice is like a staple for the soul of our tastebuds and belly. Noodle dishes are always hot, fresh, and delicious. Back when my youngest was small she would order a chicken noodle dish and ask for all vegetables on the side and they'd do it perfectly every time. The staff here is quick, attentive, and always serving with a smile, which boggles my mind because kindness worn on the face can be a challenge, yet they do it. We have never ordered anything we would not return for, however do opt to try new things once in a while.

If you like Thai, I wouldn't hesitate. Many options on the menu, and friendly staff. We visited with our kids, and it was perfect. The little ones loved the coconut water it was a real coconut! The food was delicious too. We even took the left overs to the hotel and had them the next day. Public parking is just around the corner, so parking was no issue.

I am a Thai person travelling in the USA and had lunch here. It is a wow to taste the food. It seems like coming home and guaranteeing this is the authentic food they provided me.
