The Elephant Shack

Thai food is one of my faves, so I was eager to try out The Elephant Shack in Haleiwa.

Chicken Pad Thai

Classic Chicken Fried Rice

Chicken Panang Curry

Chicken Spring Roll

I thought the flavors of almost everything we ordered were good.  My faves were the Pad Thai and Spring Rolls.  My kids loved the fried rice, which I actually thought was underseasoned.

Although there is a lot of space in the restaurant, there are very few tables inside.  There are a lot of tables outside, and several benches inside to sit, but I just thought it was strange how the interior was set up.  The doors were also left wide open, so flies were abuzz everywhere.  

Also, everything is served in take-out containers - no plates (not even paper ones), so we had to tear apart the containers to make "plates" for the kids.

The employees were very friendly, and although in general the food was good, the overall concept just didn't quite fit.  I'd be willing to do take-out from The Elephant Shack in the future though!
