• Cambodian • South End

Booked 23 times today

The Elephant Walk serves Award-Winning Cambodian and French cuisine with extensive vegetarian and gluten-free selections. Cambodian cooking is beautiful and delicious, but still rare in America. Less hot and sweet than Thai, richer and more complex than Vietnamese, the complex spice pastes that are the foundation of many Cambodian dishes reflect Cambodia’s Indian ancestry (but use fresh rather than dried spices). Our Cambodian and French selections encompass both traditional and original dishes created by our Chef Nadsa de Monteiro, who was raised in Phnom Penh speaking both Cambodian and French and subsequently lived in France for many years. Our Cambodian-and-French theme is an authentic reflection of our roots!

My husband took me to the chestnut hill location for my bday and our food was amazing. Since we had family in town for the holidays, we decided to go to the Tremont st location. It did not disappoint. The escargot were as good as any I had in Paris, a lot of flavor. We also got the French onion soup which was delicious and fitting for a cold Boston evening. Lotsssss of cheese! Our entree was a duck and mushroom risotto that they split for us- also very good. We will definitely be back but probably for special occasions as it is on the expensive side.
