Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: Little Elephant SG Thai Bistro offers a mixed bag, with some diners praising its authentic flavours and generous portions, while others find the food bland and disappointing.

The atmosphere is generally well-received, described as charming and open-air, though it can get warm in the afternoon.

Dishes like the Fried Garlic Pork and Corn Salad receive high marks, with the Tom Kha Gai and papaya salad also noted as good.

However, the green curry has been described as watery, and some drinks, like the Thai green milk tea and lemongrass drink, have been criticised for lacking flavour.

The menu is considered by some to be a bit small, and certain dishes like the minced pork and pad Thai have not always met expectations.

Service is consistently highlighted as kind and accommodating, especially for dietary restrictions.

We'd recommend visiting in the evening to avoid the afternoon heat and focusing on the highly-rated pork and corn salad.

It's a reliable option for a casual Thai meal, but perhaps not a destination for those seeking a broad menu or consistently bold flavours across all dishes.

What customers say

Little Elephant SG Thai Bistro generally receives positive feedback for its authentic Thai flavors, generous portions, and good value, especially the lunch sets.

Dishes like the Fried Garlic Pork, Corn Salad, and Tom Kha Gai are frequently praised, though some find the Green Curry watery and the minced pork unconventional.

Service is often highlighted as kind and accommodating, despite occasional issues like desserts being unavailable or a limited menu variety.

The open-air seating provides a nice atmosphere but can be warm during the day.

The food here tastes really awful — honestly totally inedible. The atmosphere is actually quite nice and windy, but it completely spoiled my mood because the food and drinks have absolutely no taste.…

I love Thai food and Little Elephant was a fantastic find for me at the Tiong Bahru estate. Ambience feels pretty old school but charming. We had their Tom Kha Gai (coconut soup), Green Curry, Corn Sa…

We came here for dinner. It’s a pretty popular place and you could almost forget you’re in Singapore for a moment. The food is not bad but not outstanding. The menu is also a little small and lacks so…
