Pad Thai ordered: beef unacceptably tough. Noodles were over saturated with over sweet sauce. It is a major challenge for my "do not waste food" moral standard.-5/5 Service: average3/5 Ambiance: decent. The only factor I would rate 4/5 read more

We were in town for work and looking for a good place to have dinner. We were a bit nervous after reading some Reviews that complained about poor service. Don't be!!! Everyone was friendly, inviting, and very attentive on a busy Friday night. The food looked delicious and tasted even better. We will be back next time we're in town. read more

Food was good but service was not.. My first time in this restaurant and man was I disappointed. I had high expectations going in but was disappointed quickly.. as soon as I walk in there was no one to be found. We waited a couple minutes and no one was coming. So I walked up to the counter and someone finally came. The server was pleasant but seemed as they didn't wanna be there which is okay.. I get it we all have bad days. Sever waited over shoulder to see what we wanted to drink. Didn't once ask if we needed a second to decide just kinda stood there waiting for a couple minutes. Made us feel rushed in a way to just hurry up and decide. I will say food was quick and hot which makes the experience better but it just sucks because we tipped good and barely got to enjoy our date. This was our 5 year anniversary date and just wanted to treat ourselves because we've wanted to go here for awhile. Restaurant is very clean and nice though, very calm and quiet environment. I would recommend this place to anyone that doesn't care about service and just wants some Thai food, food was still good regardless of service just kinda felt like we were being rushed out. In my opinion if you want some good Thai or Asian food I'd definitely go to 'Oka'. I'm just upset because I really wanted to like this place. :( read more

The food and service at this place has been terrible. To begin with the food has too much sugar in everything. The yellow curry is sweet. The beef noodle soup is sweet. Tom yum soup also sweet. Everything is overwhelming sweet. Even pad Thai that is supposed to be a little sweet. Is super sweet. The chef has no idea how to cool beef. It is like trying to get bubble gum. The pad Thai with beef and beef noodle soup we had. It was very rough. Overall of you like this food. You should avoid. But since they are the only Thai place in this town.i think this is why they can survive. The service leaves much to desire. I've never got this much eye rolls and attitude at a Thai restaurants. Asking for bowls or any questions seems like a chore as if we are bothering them. I was really looking forward to this place given all the reviews that were positive. I was disappointed beyond belief. And would say unless your desperate for food that looks like Thai food. Don't bother read more

this was some of the best thai food i've ever had. The pork penang curry combined with the beef pad thai was a beautiful combination that should not be had just once. The spice from the curry mixed w the rice noodles left a symphony in my head. Then ever so often crunching into the calamari that was dipped in a sweet and spicy sauce was the perfect cherry on top. The thai tea was super sweet and I loved it. 10000000% recommend to anyone to check out! read more

Food and service was good. 8 would go here again. In fact I want to go soon. Ambiance is decent too.

Pretty good overall. Nice bistro atmosphere. Fast friendly service. Food came out fast so it was one of "those" Thai food places where the meat is already cooked and added to the sauce so it comes overdone. Nevertheless it all tasted great if a bit salty. Ordered edamame which was flavorless without the Cajun sauce, garden salad which was heavy on the iceberg lettuce but had a nice mustardy vinaigrette, and veggie egg rolls which were basic. Thom kha soup was superb. Ordered chicken fried rice which was passable, yellow curry with chicken (overdone) flavorful if soupy, Thai basil with ground beef flavorful (salty), and drunken noodles with pork (soggy noodles). No fried shrimp rolls? Cajun flavored appetizers? read more

The food was very flavorful, the ingredients were fresh and good, but each dish --except the Spring Rolls-- felt "thin" and excessively spicy. I like spicy food, but we ordered medium heat and hot torched. Again, I do not mind spicy but when I don't ask for arson it is just not cool to throw flaming gasoline around casually. I had a nice spice bubble -- but it was undesired. Tom Kha Gai was very tasty, but the coconut milk seemed very light. Panang Chicken Curry was also very tasty, but the broth was also on the light side and instead of coating your tongue with the typical dense broth, the heat burst through and you were rewarded by tiny bits of chopped up veggies instead of broth. Almost weird, but the flavor was good. Just *not* Anthony like I have had in Thai food on any continent so far. (Maybe they serve it like this in Antartica because to is so cold...?) Spring Rolls were handy to calm down the heat... The fried banana was not my thing at all. I think the fried dough was too dense versus a thiner/lighter dough like croissants use. Go here if you need the endorphin rush. You will get that for sure. Overall, a weak interpretation of the Thai food I have had in Thailand, the US, and Australia. Taste is good, but heat is too much when you ask for MEDIUM and they seem to be playing skimpy games using heat instead of ingredients... read more

Excellent menu. Very friendly staff. The restaurant was not packed when we popped in on a Friday evening. The food was incredible. Money bags as an app is a great choice. read more

Before my date and I hit up the strip club, we ate here. He told me he never had Thai food before and that I'd pick out some options. "No pressure," he said. Pressure applied regardless. Keep in mind that we were accepted in 30 mins before closing so I had to choose FAST. I got the green curry, papaya salad, and seafood salad. Plus mango sticky rice to go (I love mango sticky rice, easily one of my top five fave desserts). Green curry was a lil more liquidy than I'm used to but the flavour was still there. The seafood salad had a good mix (some Thai places skimp or put too much of one thing, like chewy squid, so thankfully that wasn't here). And it's v hard to mess up papaya salad. If you come to Corning, this is a great spot to go to especially after a Museum of Glass visit (or a pregame meal for the strip club LOL) read more

Good food and excellent service. Portion size was just perfect. Will definitely return.

Very nice restaurant, great service and all our food was so delicious. Would highly recommend

We stopped here for dinner while passing through Corning. Awesome food and service. NOTE: The food is AUTHENTIC THAI SPICY! So if you want mild, ask for mild or no spicy. We asked for a no spice drunken noodle and it was perfect for our kiddo, yet still flavourful. The Tom Kha Gai was mild spicy without changing the spice level. My spouse got the Thai Chicken Sauce with medium spicy and it was more like a hot spicy for most "American"-spice level Thai restaurants (hence the authentic spicy warning!) Good experience overall! read more

The food was good - but just not enough. Looks like they must have hired the chef from chips packaging company - since it's only half filled. When I pay for an item, they already made their profit, and all I expect it to be served for what was paid - not shortchanged. You get 25lbs of Jasmin rice for $18 at Costco, I just wish they used 1/200th (9 cents worth of rice - for $20 transaction) to fill my paid-for box. And you wonder why people are not coming, and the restaurant is going down. It's because of these sleezy practices - to maximize profit for a batch of rice they cooked - not provide value for paying customers. Left a bad taste, even though the food was tasty. I didn't pay for sampling. Go figure! read more

I loved the curry with shrimp! Almost downed the entire curry and they gave lots of big shrimps! The server was so nice too. The crab fried rice was full of crab meat, but the taste wasn't there. The thai iced tea lacked thai tea flavor -- it was too milky...? read more

They have food. That's about all i can say. Attitude and service....a GIANT ZERO! Location is good...about a 4. Ambiance is a 2.5 star. Food is 1.5-star. (EX: When they say peas they mean canned peas not snow peas. Canned carrots too. Really?!). Those are the only reasons for my 2-star review vs 1-star. read more

Advertised as Thai and Cajun though most of the menu is Thai. Definitely feels for all intents like a Thai place. Very good food. The restaurant has a nice interior. The food was all super fresh. I got the green curry a bit extra spicy and it was PLENTY spicy!! Proceed with caution. :). My spouse loved the ginger tofu dish and we really wanted many orders of the little appetizers that look like little purses. Soooo good. Definitely recommend! read more

The place and ambiance was nice. Food was spicy even at medium. The food could burn your tongue. The soup was tasty but watered down and expensive for $15 Massaman curry was ok, Drunken noodles were very spicy. Service was good Would not return here. read more

Great service with a smile. The Panang curry is one of the best I've ever had. Mango sticky rice is excellent!

Thai restaurant with a lovely ambiance. Extensive menu options including lunch specials. The food however was alright, neither spectacular nor downright terrible, and came with generous portions. We got the Tom Kha soup with vegetables which lacked creaminess, ended up as way too tangy and watery. The cashew stir fry and drunken noodles, however, were flavorful. read more

Ordered drunken noodles with Cajun fried rice and Thai vegetable fried rice with spice level medium. All 3 dishes were flavorful and tad spicy. I enjoyed the chilli spiciness , cause there was enough other flavors complimenting the chilies. read more

On hot Sunday evening not much choice in Corning Market Street but this was a good one. Thai curry first class. Thai rolls good and ginger something with Pork first class. Clean and attentive. Yes I would go other days of the week if I wanted good tastie food on Market Street. By the way not much in the way of Louisiana food except fries read more

Amazing service from host and server, they really took care of me and my family. Huge portions and really calming ambience while we ate! Definitely recommend if you're in town, family owned and some of the best Thai food I've tried. read more

This place was a surprising yet unforgettable find :) My husband went to school near Corning and he had never been to Nine Elephants before. I've lived in Queens for a long time and had Drunken noodles at Thai restaurants all over NYC, but this was hands down the best one I've ever had at any Thai restaurant. I highly recommend this place read more

My husband loves spicy so he order Thai spicy. He loved it but it made his eyes water and his face turn red. Most places don't make it that spicy. Good for you! I had the crispy duck pad ti. It was good. All food was temperature hot as well and the place was busy on a Tuesday night. read more

I ve been here multiple times and it never gets any better. this last time will be the final visit. We ordered 2 dishes, pad Thai and massaman chicken. The pad thai's pork was like shoe leather, and it was the worst massaman chicken. Loose, flavorless sauce terrible, tough chicken. Not served with cashews but peanuts and it had round crab boil type potatoes with the skin on vs. hunks. Massaman is supposed to be a rich creamy curry sauce. When spoke to my server, her attitude was well, too bad, you can order something else, but you'll pay for them both, vs. offering to make it right. read more

Aug 14/19: This was just an ok experience. The server declined to let us sit where we preferred. Although the service was fast it was less then fully cordial. The server seemed be forcefully polite & it was easily detectable. The facility itself was nice...it had flat tv with aquatic scenes playing on a loop. Don't think there were more than 40 seats total. The Chicken Pad Thai was virtually tasteless. The serving size was considerably smaller then I've experienced at other Thai Restaurants. read more

Very welcoming spot that accommodates all ages. The menu has the typical Thai dishes and desserts. I am a huge fan of Thai iced tea but decided to try their rose Thai tea. It did not disappoint! I ordered the chicken satay and Pad Pak with shrimp. Both were delicious! Their Thai donuts were a hit! read more

Food was delicious. Service was attentive and efficient. Had the pad Thai, green curry, and Thai rice. All were happy.

Their food is too salty and too sweet so I usually don't eat here. The Elmira one is much better and the service is way better. But we wanted to give this restaurant a chance since we had a visitor but the servers refused to put two tables together and tried to make our young toddler sit in a high stool with a booster seat. Unkind and inconsiderate. We left and it is a shame the only Thai place in Corning is such an unpleasant place read more

Enjoyed the food here, but need to keep in mind that the medium spicy is a little too spicy, even for a spicy food lover.. so probably go for low spice which might be just sufficient to enjoy a good meal.. all the items ordered were good, which includes drunken noodles, Thai fried rice, and curry with tofu.. read more
