    Drunken noodles with beef Chicken Sate (4 skewers)
    Adilene P.

    Edit: Pink Elephant - Canoga Park When Pink Elephant says spicy, they mean it and I'm here for it. I used to be a regular here years ago, so when I was in the neighborhood I decided to stop in for a little nostalgia. I ordered the drunken noodles with beef and the chicken satay. The noodles were just as bold and flavorful as I remembered; chewy, packed with spice, and not shy about the heat if you ask for spicy. If you can't handle a serious kick, consider dialing it down. The beef was a letdown. It was so dry I couldn't finish it, and I immediately wished I had gone with chicken instead. The chicken satay, on the other hand, was tender and tasty, though the recipe seems a bit different than it used to be. Not quite the same magic I remember, but still a solid Thai spot that delivers real flavor and heat . My Pad Thai Ratings: * Grandma's Thai Kitchen - 5/10 * Kuhn Dang Restaurant - 7/10 * Toi on Sunset - 9/10 * Jasmine Thai - 7/10 * Pink Elephant - 8.5/10 * Sanamluang Cafe - 10/10 * Lum-Ka-Naad - 10/10

    Amazing customer service. The girl who helped me today was unbelievable friendly and sweet. And she suggested I get the drunken noodles with chicken and a side order of white rice. I also got a small cucumber salad and I'm eating it right now and I'm in love with this place.

    I really tried to give this place another chance, but unfortunately it was disappointing again. I called in my order ahead of time and still ended up waiting over 40 minutes after arriving. The food itself is good, but the portions are surprisingly small for the price -- especially compared to other Thai restaurants in the city that offer much better value and service. This was my second visit, and sadly, it'll be my last. The food is good but overall experience

    Coconut cake the best

    Great food .. and the best desserts in the area, chocolate cookies and the homemade Biscoff cheesecake

    The food here is best in the valley for Thai food. The lady here is sweet and polite and will suggest food if you ask her. The vibe is always peaceful and feels like home. Highly recommended this hidden gem!

    Don't see any crab meat
    Svetlana P.

    I have been ordering Pink Elephant since 2018. Shrinkflation during COVID was understandable, but the scrimping on seafoof dishes is just ridiculous. In 2018 for 10.50 you could order a crab fried rice that had a bed of cooked crab covering the entire area of rice. The 2025 crab fried rice for 16.00 is a joke. We had to pick apart the egg to even find the precense of crab to take a picture of. The chicken pad Thai looks exactly the same as it did in 2018. Everything still tastes great. But if you expect to receive any seafood you ordered, don't keep your hopes up.

    Remaining green curry
    Aja G.

    I recently discovered this place isn't far away from my home and given the solid reviews, I decided to try it. This is one of the best tasting curry spots for the money that I've found in LA. For $11, you get a generous portion of curry and a side of rice. Many places these days charge extra for rice. Also, I just learned they will deliver nearby for free with minimum purchase of $20. I always get the green curry with soft tofu. It includes basil, bamboo and eggplant in a delicious curry. I ask for spicy, which isn't all that spicy, in my opinion. But the "extra spicy" is pretty hot and includes some Thai peppers that blow your head off when you bite into them. I wish there was a happy middle point between the two. But alas, still amazing flavor. My husband gets the yellow curry medium spicy with fried tofu. His has potatoes and carrots in a very rich, savory curry. Both of us slurp up the last drops to make sure we get it all, it's so good!

It is an interesting and welcoming restaurant and has a great atmosphere. I also love how the location has Japanese and Thai artwork all over. 4/5 Staff: The owner is super kind and helpful.

I also thought that her staff was nice and attentive. 5/5 Price: I feel that the food is well priced and competitive. The serving portions meet my expectations and of course I will always say I want more, but that is unrealistic. 4.5/5 Food: Tonkatsu Chicken Curry Rice: Absolutely the dish I miss from Japan and this has that comforting dish vibe I used to have at home or in Japan.

They offer three versions of their tonkotsu ramen--Clear, Black, and Spicy. Of course, I ordered the Clear. Oh my goodness... this was exactly the ramen I'd been looking for. The broth was crystal clear yet incredibly rich and flavorful without being heavy. The chashu was melt-in-your-mouth tender, perfectly seasoned, and not greasy at all. The soft-boiled egg was cooked to perfection with a beautifully jammy yolk. The noodles reminded me of the ramen I had in Japan--simple, authentic, with the perfect texture and firmness. And the shredded green onions on top completely brought the whole bowl together. They added just the right amount of freshness and crunch. Game over. If you're looking for authentic Japanese ramen with a clean, flavorful broth, this place is a must-visit. I'll definitely be back.

I'm really happy that my Ramen did come out as I imaged, you could smell the Yuzu from the broth. I did wish though it had a little bit more flavoring, but overall was pretty good. The location itself is in a shopping plaza inside. It was really calm pretty quiet. They have bar seating and a couple of tables throughout the area, but it's not a big restaurant which I like.! Overall, we'll try adding this place into our rotation for Asian food in the area
