We went with friends to the "White Elephant" on Nazarbayev, 26. The place, of course, is remarkable – the interior is interesting, the atmosphere is cozy, but with the food ... We ordered several dishes – everything is average. There was nothing special to say "wow!" directly. The portions, however, are quite large. The service was polite, but a little slow. In general, the feeling is that the place is based more on the atmosphere and location than on the quality of the kitchen. If you just want to sit in pleasant company, then it will do, but for gastronomic delights, it is better to look for another place. The price corresponds to the level, neither expensive nor cheap.
Every time we visit Almaty, we go to this restaurant to enjoy the warm atmosphere and delicious food. Tom yam is super, noodles, shrimp on skewers, you can't count everything - it's incredibly delicious!Not cheap, but acceptable. The staff is very friendly! The service is fast and accurate. Thank you. We will visit and recommend it to everyone.
The best Thai restaurant in the world! No matter how funny it is, even in Thailand it is not so delicious! Amazing tom yam, insanely delicious baursaks, delicious salad with glass noodles and incomparable Thai meat! Another very tasty lemonade!
The most delicious in the city, period.
A close-knit, friendly and, most importantly, stable team creates an atmosphere of coziness and comfort for this institution! 🫶🏼
I was there yesterday, ordered a tom yam, brought it barely warm, asked to bring it hot, put it in the microwave and still served barely warm. I won't come to this place, I didn't like it.
Baursaks are delicious. The tomato is also delicious, but we didn't ask for it to be spicy, and it was brought to us so spicy that we couldn't eat it. The money was flushed down the toilet.
Tom yam soup is just super! Both in the restaurant and on delivery, it's just a top! We did not disappoint, well done! The restaurant serves you quickly, politely, and with dignity! I recommend
It's expensive, and the menu is sparse. But the food and service are not bad, the toilet is clean, although unorthodox) 3.5, but for Ty's fans, maybe the score will be higher.
Greetings to all, very good cuisine, I especially liked Tom Yam purely on coconut milk, I tried other dishes and everything went well for me, I visited them 2 times.
I wandered in by accident, after a five-hour walk around the city. I was tired and very thirsty. I ordered a DAB beer, I think. German draft beer. I really liked it. But since it was closing time (24.00), I did not order dishes...

A pleasant and cozy place. Very tasty tom yam! Good service and pleasant staff 👍🏻🔥
I've never seen anything like it! The reaction of the visitors is the same: everyone just quacks with pleasure! The food is so authentic! I recommend it to all lovers of Thai cuisine! And not only Thai!!! And what kind of baursaks are there! Mmmmmm! The most delicate and straight from the fire! Complete delight! I also ordered them myself! The staff is very friendly and welcoming! All the beauties! But the food!!!!!! I will definitely come back to Alma-Ata!
A real Thai restaurant. Delicious fruit drinks / lemonades, everything is clear in Thai cuisine, spices are probably from there and the cook too))). You need to come and order Thai food. This place is in great demand in this area.
Fans of Tom yama classics and its variations are required to visit. The taste of Thailand and Thai spices, friendly service, may be a little confused by not fresh repairs, but it adds some authenticity.
The best Thai restaurant in Almaty! I recommend Tom yam kung soup, Thai sunrise salad, Fish in pepper sauce. Excellent service! It is a pity that there is no such restaurant in Astana)
The best of Tom yam, right Tom yum turned out to be. But keep in mind that the cook is Thai and for him the average sharpness is the maximum that I ever ate from this soup) Thanks to the waiter that he gave me a choice of sharpness and drove me into doubts. I'm afraid to assume that this is the maximum sharpness in this institution, because the wooden sticks burned just lying next to the plate, and the metal of the spoon melted)))
The Best Tom Pit. 5-6 Kinds Of Tom Pit. Baursaki TOP!
The wines are good! I recommend it to fans of Thai cuisine. The dish is from 4.5 to tg.

I read somewhere in the reviews that there is the most delicious Tom Yam in the city. Well, that's not true, he's just normal. Pad thai is not bad, but again, there is no real delight. And so, apparently, with the whole menu. The prices are reasonable, the service is good, the place is for once, there is no need to return.
A great place for a pleasant stay with family and friends!
It is quite rare now to find places where there is no noise and crowds of young people - the White Elephant is ready to offer you a pleasant pastime with good music)
The waiting time was about 15 minutes, which is good enough, since I did not think that Thai cuisine could be cooked so quickly. The chefs' professionalism is felt.
We have been going to the White Elephant for many years. And all these many years, the waiters have been polite and attentive (it seems they have never changed), Tom yam is delicious, the atmosphere is cozy. I highly recommend it.
