We ordered a red duck curry and a chicken green curry. My preference for food is often more on the savory side, I really enjoyed my red duck curry despite it being more sweet. My dish was sweet, tangy and packed with duck and pineapples. The green green curry has an abundance of chicken and vegetables, I thought the green curry was more delicious than the red curry as it was more savoury. The only thing that I would change is switching out the chicken breast for chicken thighs as it's a more tender cut. Just as a side note, the curry doesn't come with rice which most other places do, so don't forget to add that. The atmosphere and decor was traditional and lights were dim. The service was top notch and I felt it was authentic. Overall, I'd go back for the experience again.

Excellent food with excellent customer service. Went with friends and ordered Tom Yum soup, curry puffs, spring rolls, elephant curry, green curry, spicy noodles, chicken satay and drinks. Each item was delicious and had distinct flavours. Staff were super friendly and were eager to serve even though we went in quite late. As we were checking out, they learnt that we were there to celebrate one of our friend’s birthday. They were very close to shutting down their restaurant for the day, but they still prepared a small dessert with traditional sweets (sticky rice and bananas) and presented a small gift .... all compliments of the house!

Very friendly staff. Paid attention to small requests, no fish sauce, no shrimp paste. I've had better red curry though. Vege spring rolls were good. Toilets were clean!

A great little Thai restaurant down a little alleyway off the Parnell Rise.

The food here took us back to Thailand.

We ordered the Thai Fish cakes, Chicken Pad Thai and the spicy whole snapper.

Food was delish, service was great.

Highly recommend.

Best Thai mid-fine Dining Venue Auckland

This is based on my past experiences, loving thai food I tend to try new places, this place has been so far the best in my opinion.
Restaurant was decorated traditionally with waitresses in their thai traditional dresses.
Food was superb, well decorated, full of flavours, can literally feel how fresh the ingredients were.
$ph was not too high considering the sevice I recieved.
Definatly keen to go more!

Really aromatic curries . You can tell they put a lot of love into their food. Love the fact they have been there for years. It’s the second time we have been and will go back. Had the duck curry. The flavours were robust and a great portion of duck. Drinks were reasonably priced too. Excellent.

I had dinner with friends here recently. The restaurant is tucked in a cute little alleyway that’s easy to miss if you aren’t looking well. The staff was really nice and friendly, love the hot towel service between courses too. The food was beautifully presented and tasted great too. Had the pad thai and thought it was a pretty generous serving. Decided to skip dessert as there weren’t that many options. Would definitely come back to try more dishes.

Yum yum yum. This little restaurant in parnell has an amazing vibe and the best food! We had a big party here for my friend and it was such a nice place to get together with everybody. We got a range of things from the menu that i’ve captioned in each of my photos but my favourite has got to be the almond chicken curry which was crunchy and so flavourful. The waiters were so kind and welcoming even when we took a while to choose. The only downside to this place is the space as it was a bit squishy for us. Overall amazing place and delicious food!!

Love the food and all the dishes we ordered. Had to wait a little bit to be seated after we had booked our reservation because it was super busy. But it was totally worth it. The service is splendid and the staffs are super friendly.

The Blue Elephant is a must visit. I brought my family here for dinner, and we all enjoyed! I would recommend booking prior, as they can get quite busy and sometimes take slightly longer to attend your tables. Nonetheless, the waitresses are very friendly and helpful. I got the red curry - which was a 7/10 , only as I believe it could’ve had much more meat. Overall it was still food. I was given the green curry by mistake and the waitress quickly corrected it! :) The lamb massaman -8/10. Fantastic dish. Again, it just needed more meat. I cannot remember the seafood dish name, it was fried though(see video below) - but I would 11/10 recommend this dish! Located in the most cosiest spot in Parnell, which makes it amazing. Would visit again. Thanks Blue 🐘💙

Blue Elephant Thai Restaurant is a must-visit spot in Auckland City for vegans and vegetarians looking for delicious Thai food. The welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff made me feel right at home, and the menu offered a variety of vegan/vegetarian options. The Tom Yum soup with tofu & the Red Penang Curry with was bursting with flavors. Pad thai was perfectly cooked rice noodles and a balance of savory flavors. The dish was beautifully presented and a standout dish, making it a must-try for anyone visiting the restaurant. With its cozy ambiance and knowledgeable staff, dining Blue Elephant was a delightful experience. For anyone searching for delicious vegan Thai food in Auckland City, I would highly recommend it.

This little restaurant punches above its weight. The shared platter for two was absolutely delicious and the lady that served us took the time to explain the different flavours. The meal was above expectations. Thoroughly recommend. In particular, the seafood dishes that were cooked to perfection. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Had chicken satay skewers and lamb massaman curry. The chicken was tender, the satay sauce was delicious, plenty in 1 serving so really good to share between 2ppl. The lamb curry was great tender fall apart lamb, looks small but actually better to share between 2. We were a group of 3, service was great and attentive, we had drinks while waiting for entrees which were nicely done. Just a great night out, good atmosphere. I've been a few times over the years and never had any complains (well besides overeating but I can't even fault them on that! 😉) Edit 2022-11-29: went again tonight and we all loved the food, the service and the whole experience. Definitely will be back!
