Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Thai & Elefanta offers a remarkable dining experience with its "absolutely beautiful surroundings" and enchanting lagoon seating. While some guests find the menu limited, others praise the "amazing service" and the fusion of Thai and Indian cuisine. The exquisite ambiance, especially at sunset, makes it a "must-do experience" in Cancún.

    Excellent dining experience on our return to Cancun. We loved dining in an individual thatched hut in the Lagoon. Everyone loved the chicken satay and spring roll appetizers. The table was unanimous on the fried Jasmine rice with shrimp and chicken. The rice was delicious with chicken aplenty. Our server Yolanda provided friendly and well timed service. Recommend this restaurant for lagoon dining and its Indian-Thai fusion cuisine.

    This is probably our favorite restaurant in Cancun!! The ambiance in the bungalows over the water is amazing. We like to go for sunset so you have to make a 5 pm reservation—which is a bit early!! The service and food are amazing!! We love the shrimp appetizer and the lamb chop appetizer—they both are seasoned impeccably!!

    Beautiful environment. Limited and not very exiting menu. Not value for money. Strange that the restaurant do not have chopsticks. Thai food prepared in a Mexican way. No surprise that the restaurant was almost empty.
