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!

The food was outstanding--dishes with wonderful and unique flavors. We had the duck confit and bass, also the the burrata (fabulous!) and delicious deserts. The ambiance was great as well. My daughter and I had gone for dinner after attending SoWa. Marseille was so special we decided to splurge on the fixed price menu ($60 per person for appetizer, entree, and desert) and called it her birthday dinner. Well worth every penny!

We went in the winter and the downstairs is cozy with the fireplace. The food was fresh, seasoned and nicely presented. It was a busy Saturday evening and service lagged little near the end of our meal. We would return again and recommend you try it too.
