Thai Elephant’s Pad Thai features rice noodles stir-fried with egg, vegetables, and shrimp or other proteins in a house tamarind sauce, then finished with peanuts and lime.[20][22] This rendition is framed around noodle and shrimp cookery, with an emphasis on keeping the sauce bright while still richly flavored, and the restaurant specifically notes Pad Thai among its specialties.[20][22] The dish tends to arrive generously portioned, with distinct pieces of shrimp and a glossy coat of sauce on the noodles that makes it satisfying as a standalone entrée. Online menus and customer comments highlight the shrimp Pad Thai in particular as one of the dishes people seek out when coming to this west-side Cleveland location near Lakewood.[20][22]
