My all-time favorite restaurant! T is amazing, the food never disappoints, and the atmosphere is so relaxing. The reggae, dim lighting, and cozy vibe make it such an enjoyable place to unwind and eat. We absolutely love it here!! Just a little warning tho, when they say spicy, they mean SPICY! But honestly, it's so worth it. I will forever rave about the service & food here!! read more

Lucky Elephant Cafe - Massaman Curry - Laotian Near Me - Washington Township, New Jersey

Another great dinner out with friends at this small Thai restaurant right in Washington Twp. Our friend has been coming here almost every week and suggested we try it ... and it did not disappoint! Everyone in our group of 3 couples ... so enjoyed our meals and Tee(?) was a great hostess! They made us feel so welcome and paid special attention to all our needs .. including those of us that liked our "spice" elevated and otherwise. They even gave some of us the "extra" homegrown peppers to meet their needs. Thanks so much!! From the curries ... to noodles ... to fried rice ...everything was excellent!! The topper was the fried banana dessert ... wow!! Great for takeout too ... as there's limited seating dine in. Looking forward to going back soon!! read more

Stop reading reviews and just come here! It's absolutely amazing food and the "waitress", Tee, that everyone raves about is actually the founder/owner! She even remembers customers by name and their orders. I came here twice on a short work trip and lived the tom yum, pad Thai, pad see ew, veggie rolls (with taro!), and fried bananas. Cozy atmosphere but only seating for 10, so plan ahead when you want to bring a group. Authentic Thai family recipes with unique spins and perfect service! read more

The restaurant sincerely deserves praise. The dishes were delicious and fairly priced considering how much food came on the plate. This restaurant offers good food, decent prices and excellent service. Nice workers on duty. They've created a good environment and I'm pleased I found it. read more

If you are in the South Jersey area (Sewell/Washington Township), please stop by Lucky Elephant Cafe for delicious and authentic Thai & Lao food (take out only for now).

We also ordered crispy chicken wings, shrimp rolls, pork and vegetable egg rolls, chicken fried rice, shrimp and salmon special and Tom Yum soup We definitely found our new takeout spot! *There's no sign yet. It's located in a strip mall next to Philly Pretzel Factory and Liscio's Bakery. read more

Had been wanting to try this place for a while and ended up ordering takeout on a weeknight. This place definitely lived up to all the 5 star reviews. The pad Thai and crispy pork rolls were delicious. Customer service went above and beyond, and the vibes inside the restaurant were great. It's a tiny spot, but I wouldn't mind trying dine-in next time. Will definitely be back! read more

Great little restaurant. Food and bubble tea are excellent. Definitely worth a try.

The kitchen delivers food worth coming back for. Personnel maintain kindness without any pretense. I'm still telling friends about this restaurant. The food offers freshness, great flavor, and many choices. Add this restaurant to your plans. read more

This place is a hidden gem. If you want great Thai food from people who clearly care about their customers - this is your destination. Our group of four each had a terrific meal. My green curry was outstanding. The pad thai was one of the best we have had. A delicious fried rice dish and an excellent masaman curry were also had. Our hostess was wonderful, and as first timers they shared with us each a delicious fried banana dessert for free that I assure you we will gladly pay for next time. They also offered us a delicious Thai tea (chilled) before dessert which was also really good. The place is very small - only really seating for 10 people, but it has a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and again the hostess was delightful. We will be back without hesitation and fully recommend it. We consider ourselves lucky to have found it! read more

Excellent green curry Layers of flavor and very fresh. Generous serving - just right! The server seems to live to please customers! Really sweet It's hard to find. Your persistence will pay off read more

Came here for a little dinner on a Thursday night all the way from Philly, worth the 45 min drive during prime hours, 5:30-6:15, it's fairly new, a cute and quaint hidden spot which is also family ran. Amazing Thai food, had the red curry (mild spice) was not super spicy, just a slight burn. It was creamy, packed with so much flavor, fresh, and you can really taste the love and passion in the food. I got the curry with shrimp, definitely will be wanting it again. A plus is that this place gives you way more curry than most places in philly, so definitely worth the money. My cousin got the Pad see ew (drunken noodles), I usually think pad see ew is meh, especially the ones I've tried in philly restaurants, BUT I LOVED their pad see ew, it's very different from the other ones I've tried. It had so much more flavor, it was sweet, savory, spicy, umami, and a hint of acidic/sour, lots of fresh veggies, and noodles were cooked perfectly. The owner Tee was amazing and so sweet, made us feel like we could be real life friends, she really took care of us, especially when we told her it was our first time and gave us complimentary dessert, lucky elephant banana. The dessert is sweet, ripe bananas wrapped in a wonton (I think) wrapper, fried to perfection, drizzled with chocolate syrup and powdered sugar. The wrapper was crispy with soft fresh bananas inside. read more

Hidden gem on Egg Harbor Road tucked away between the ever-popular Liscio's bakery and Pretzel Factory. You really wouldn't know it's there--it's a fairly small space that is easy to miss. Heard good things and have been hoping to find a more reasonably priced--but more authentic--Thai restaurant. And we definitely found it. We ordered Pad Kee Mao with chicken, Pad Thai with tofu, veggie rolls, and Tom Yum soup with shrimp. Everything was delicious. Especially the Tom Yum--which the owner told me is how she would make it for herself or her family. I'm definitely coming back soon for that soup--Tom Yum is one of my favorites and this was one of the best I've ever had. Can't wait to try the curries. Update: The curries are awesome. Especially the green curry. read more

As a Thai food aficionado, I was incredibly excited to learn about Lucky Elephant Cafe! I love that I have access to yummy Thai food locally, without having to drive into Philly (not that I mind but sometimes so you want great food without having to cross into a different state). When you enter into Lucky Elephant Cafe, you'll be greeted by their sweet and bubbly owner and welcomed into a cozy atmosphere! The menu has options for everyone including vegans and vegetarians. I highly recommend! You MUST try to the druken noodles! read more

Cute little place across from the ShopRite shopping center. Delicious curries, noodles and fried rice. They can adjust the spice level all the way down to "no spice" for some dishes, which is great for the kiddo. Small but cozy inside, and just the nicest staff. Highly recommend! read more

Great service! And the food is soooo good. Seriously the best Thai food in Gloucester county. Ambiance is cozy and fun. Definitely gonna come back. read more

Everything is cooked to order, hot, fresh and tasty. We saw reviews about Lucky Elephant and wanted to try a new place. We are definitely going back. read more

What an amazing find!!! Great food and exceptional service from the owner. Highly recommend!!!

Loved it!!! Hidden gem in Washington Township. Server/owner was so pleasant and friendly. Food- unreal.... You have to try it to understand how awesome the food really is. Just delicious. First time customers get a free dessert, and ours was a fried banana with chocolate drizzle and coated with powdered sugar. The best way to describe it is a sweet egg roll with banana stuffed inside, and it was so good. Will be back to try another dish in the very near future! read more

Have visited Lucky Elephant twice in the last few months. Each time the food was outstanding with accurate spice levels. The Drunken Noodles and Pad Thai were very flavorful. Best part is it is a BYOB. Highly recommend if you like spicy Thai food. T is the best, very personable and you may get a special dessert when you visit the first time. read more

Food was excellent and service and host was so nice, made our experience a great one, even the chef came outrider if our food was good, store was very clean, located off egg harbor road between Philly pretzel and Liscios bakery, I highly recommend! read more

we were looking on yelp for places to eat and saw this place had good reviews so we decided to try it out. the restaurant was hard to find cause they don't have a sign and the gps doesn't know where they are but we found it after a few minutes looking around. it's a small place, but they have some tables for 2 and i believe 1 for 4. our waitress was SO nice, very friendly and told us everything about the menu items to make sure we got what we wanted. we got the tao hou tod to share and it was really good, the peanut sweet chili sauce also great. i had the tofu pad see ew, it was very fresh and the portion was definitely reasonable. pad see ew is one of my go to's when i get thai and lucky elephant's was up with the best of them. my fiancée had the basil fried rice which was very different from any other fried rice i've had. it came in a sauce but the sauce was really good i wasn't expecting to like it, i honestly might order it myself next time we go. again our server was incredibly nice, she gave us drinks and a dessert to try for free just cause it was our first time there we thought that was so sweet of her. they do have a bathroom as well, it was very clean. overall great experience we will definitely be back soon. read more
