We were in the mood for Thai food and, in this area, Thai Elephant 2 is the best. We ordered Tom Yum soup, pineapple fried rice, vegetable dumplings and crispy duck. Each dish was excellent! Service was a bit slow, but very polite... the food is so worth overlooking this. A definite stop if in the area and have a craving for some Thai food!

The people are very friendly and the food is high quality. The service is fast. Lunch menu has a nice combination of soup eggroll and food as in meal. If you're driving by and you feel like something different this is a great place to stop.

Great location, great restaurant, great dining room(s). The first positive experience was meeting Joe, who works behind the bar. A real people person; it was worth visiting just for him.
The food? I had Panang curry (which I've had all over the world), and it was good. Joe recommended the summer rolls, also good.
All round, worth going. Shoot, I live out of town, and I'm thinking of driving out of my way to come and eat here again.
The people complaining that the food came slowly should probably realize they're not in a McDonald's drive through. Sorry that you didn't get fries with your order, or a toy. Sigh. The wait time was about right for good food with fresh ingredients. I'll be back.

Wow, I am a little surprised and disappointed to read that others have not found Thai Elephant 2 to be as wonderful as we experienced. We were greeted nicely and seated at a table which afforded a view of the Valley below. Our waiter was very sweet and friendly and was impressed with my very very limited Thai language skills and by the fact that I have been to his home town!
We ordered our drinks, plain Iced Tea for me and a TIT for The L., and a starter of their Fresh Rolls. The L also got an order of Calamari but I did not taste it. Vibrant with color the rolls were ok, not the best I have had, as the veggies seemed a little bland, but what does one want for a salad in rice paper? ;))) My main of Thai Broccoli and Eggplant was really good. The sauce was spicy enough and the julienned carrots provided a nice crispy crunch as well as a nice amount of color and the broccoli was perfectly cooked, lush green and al dente. I had ordered a side of Sticky Rice which was served in its own

This area was desperately in need of a place like this - and the number of cars in the parking lot prove it. Our meal was delicious - we had spring rolls (stuffed with sweet potato I think? Probably would not have them again) and the Green Papaya Salad to start, the chicken hot basil and the pad Thai. Both meals were fantastic and full of flavor. The range on the menu was great, and there were lots of authentic options. The veggies looked fresh and they had brown rice. THey have a great view of the sunset and hopefully there will be some outside seating as the weather warms up?
A few kinks still need to be worked out - they were really understaffed the night we were there, both in the dining room and the kitchen. No liquor license yet, blaring George Michael music. It looks like the Astoria operation is successful, and I am sure this one will be too.
We would recommend to a friend for sure. Can't wait to go back

Great addition to the culinary choices in the patterson/brewster/candlewood lake area. Thai Elephant 2 is the outer suburban outpost of the original Thai Elephant in Queens. We had standard dishes; masaman curry, pad Thai, pad see ew, and everything was very good! Full of flavor and good value. Worth a trip and we'll be adding it to our list of go to restaurants in the area.

So far I would say its a best thai place in our area. (5 stars for this area, of course NYC has better places but this one in the middle of nowhere is a gem so in general 4 stars would be a good compromise)
Little too far for us but both times we been there it was a wonderful experience! Great service. Panang, ginger tofu, eggplant basil tofu and Tom Ka Gai soup were excellent, and we will be back for sure.
fried rice was excellent too

This is was the best Thai restaurant that I ever had, everthing was perfect and wonderful. I got Beef satay, Mango salad, Thai cashew nut with shrimp. All of them were delicious, my family and me were enjoying a lot especially they have a special view seating on the back, the scenery was beautiful. It's good to having a lunch or dinner in Thai Elephant, quiet place and the waitress was so helpful and nice. Mango sticky rice was the last things that I got, price was reasonable too. My sister got thai friend ice cream, It was the first time I've tried fried ice cream, so good. I will definetly come back to try different menu.

It my second time, I told my husband for the first visit i don't want to go back there again , because their service was to slow, I guess because they just opened they need to be more organized. but one day we are craving for their food, black bean chicken , fried ice cream, and more ... My husband said , why don't we try again , probably this time they serve faster. We went and we really have a great time, food is good , the server is very friendly also with our Son , the most important thing we dont have to wait for a long time like last time. We will definetly will going back , will be our spot. Keep up the good work. love THAI ELEPHANT2!
