Chinese restaurants in the United States range from steam-table lunch counters to white-tablecloth Cantonese seafood halls, and most fall somewhere in between: a laminated menu, a lunch special board, and combo plates priced a few dollars below the dinner menu. Ordering by number off the menu is normal and speeds things up, especially at takeout counters. Family-style ordering, where a table shares several dishes with rice rather than each person getting an individual entree, is standard at sit-down spots and usually cheaper per person. Many neighborhood restaurants are cash-preferred or charge a small card fee, so it is worth asking or checking the door before you order. Delivery apps cover most areas, but calling the restaurant directly is often faster and avoids the markup.
Hours are published for 6 days a week. On most of those days it is open 11 amโ2 pm. It is closed on Monday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (650) 494-7391. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. More information is available on its website, greenelephantgourmet.com.
Its Google rating is 4.0 out of 5 from 258 reviews, a solid but mixed picture; reading the most recent reviews will tell you what to expect.

I ate here in March 2025. Unfortunately, although I am usually a huge fan of Burmese food, I did not like the food here at all. The tea leaf salad had only a sprinkling of tea leaf and few crunchy toppings, and was mostly composed of large iceberg lettuce. Most dishes could not be properly made veg (had fish sauce and fish taste was obvious). The veg curry was very over seasoned and was not as described in menu. Also it was quite expensive. I thought that I placed a review last year, but either I forgot or it was deleted.

Absolutely delicious! We had the tea leaf salad, samusas, chicken pumpkin curry, and coconut prawn curry. Everything was so flavorful! I canโt wait to come back

Having eaten in Chinese restaurants for decades in many places in the US, this place is way below average. I ordered take out and the person behind the counter was rude. I just asked if there was sauce given for pan fried dumplings other than just soy in plastic and this women gives me an unprovoked dirty look. The Broccoli with garlic sauce doesn't come with rice so I paid extra and I can say that the rice was dry, several hours old and had several clumps. The restaurant gave me a small container for rice and it was only 2/3 full. The Broccoli was old and a few carrots thrown in weren't cooked at all. Palo Alto, Mountain View, Menlo Park has very good food for reasonable prices. I would have been satisified with a little less than mediocre, but the experience and food was worse. Will never go back; terrible value.

I called in to order one lunch special - Kung Po Chicken today. Service is excellent since it is ready within 10 min. The price is about $20 which is very good in the Palo Alto area. It comes with salad, rice and the chicken with nuts, and mix vegetable. It is a lot of food. It is tasty that I am not complaining at all. Only reason I put 4 star on the food is because the sauce is little too salty.

Tasty Thai food in the Palo Alto. The service was outstanding by Jessica - she moved fast and never left us waiting. We had a bottle of wine served in a chilled bucket, huge serving of chicken egg drop soup and shared a broccoli beef, and a serving of brown rice. Wine took us over 80 or meal would have been 50 before the tip. Everything tasted great! Will visit again.
