What Jim Anderschat likes about Green Elephant:
We came here on a Friday night on this place's reputation. It held up! I'm not a vegetarian, but our meal here was spectacular! Started off with Spring rolls then I had the hot and sour soup entrée. Very good with a nice level of heat. Our server, Haley, was excellent and gave us proper time between dished. Only one blemish, my Chang Thai Beer tasted like sewer water. They might want to upgrade Asian beer selection. View all feedback.

The Green Elephant is a staple in the Portland food scene - it's unique (vegetarian/vegan Asian bistro) and always seems to be packed. I came here around
