There are not many places in the city that can boast the same success. \u201cMany clients that came here as kids with their parents are now coming with their friends\u201d, says <\/span><span class=\"s2\"><b>Kerli Noorm\u00e4nd, <\/b><\/span><span class=\"s1\">manager at Elevant. What\u2019s the secret to their success? Good food and a charming atmosphere.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">The menu at Elevant hasn\u2019t changed much since the restaurant opened. It features different dishes from all over India and boasts classic Indian cuisine with a European twist. Elevant offers a \u201cWild Menu\u201d with wild boar and moose curry dishes, something that you wouldn\u2019t see in India, let alone at other Indian restaurants in Tallinn. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">Choose between different curries, with something to suit every taste &#8211; hot, mild, vegetarian, meat or seafood. If you want to try a bit of everything, have a thali, which gives you a selection of either appetisers, vegetarian dishes, seafood, or meat dishes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cWe are told we make the best mango lassi in town\u201d, explains Kerli. We just had to try it and it had the right balance of sweetness and spice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><b>The atmosphere at Elevant is cosy<\/b><\/span><span class=\"s1\"> and rustic. When you enter off the street, a large ornate spiral staircase leads you up to the restaurant on the second floor. Many of the medieval details of the room have been preserved and suit nicely to the unique wooden furniture, many pieces which have been brought from India.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">In winter, Elevant offers a cosy dining experience and in summer, there is both a street side patio and an intimate courtyard terrace, adding to this charming dining experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-19570\" src=\"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Screen-Shot-2016-03-14-at-9.12.06-300x242.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2016-03-14 at 9.12.06\" width=\"300\" height=\"242\" srcset=\"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Screen-Shot-2016-03-14-at-9.12.06-300x242.png 300w, https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Screen-Shot-2016-03-14-at-9.12.06.png 341w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\n<p><span class=\"s4\" style=\"color: #3366ff;\">Location<br \/>\n<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.ee\/maps\/place\/Vene+5,+10123+Tallinn\/@59.4374129,24.7446106,17z\/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x469293622395caf1:0x5326a0d30cd55fc0?hl=et\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"s2\"><b>Elevant<br \/>\n<\/b><\/span><\/a><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.ee\/maps\/place\/Vene+5,+10123+Tallinn\/@59.4374129,24.7446106,17z\/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x469293622395caf1:0x5326a0d30cd55fc0?hl=et\" target=\"_blank\">Vene 5, Tallinn Old Town<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.elevant.ee\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.elevant.ee<\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Click on the address to see the location.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">TEXT KRISTINA LUPP, PHOTOS ANDREI CHERTKOV<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Elevant is Tallinn\u2019s longest running Indian restaurant. &nbsp; Elevant has brought Indian cuisine to Tallinn for 17 years.
