Went for lunch yesterday, I had the chicken tortilla soup/Caesar salad combo… The soup was very hot which is always a bonus, the salad on the other hand had a very peculiar taste. And it was soggy, The soup was too thick for my taste. The only thing that saved me from not returning was the service! We were never rushed and the conversation flowed.

It has been a really long time since I have been to the Elephant Bar and I was just there recently for a my friends Bachelorette /Bridal party. They were informed weeks prior that we were coming so it you would think they would have been a little bit more prepared. Sadly they were not. Although the staff were friendly enough, there just were not enough of them to take care of our party of 18 along with the other tables they had to take care of inside. There was one lonely bartender and unfortunately this person could not keep up with all the orders that were being thrown at them from us along with any other patrons in the restaurant. Any time it takes more than 30 mins(not kidding) to get a drink that you have repeatedly asked your server about, then its a problem. Especially when it is something simple like a glass of wine. The food took a long time to receive as well, but I will say it was pretty good once it arrived. Sadly some people were missing items with their orders, but they did say they enjoyed their meal once they got all the missing items. IDK. you let me down Elephant Bar. You knew we were coming and you were not prepared for us. Next time, try to be a little bit more prepared by having a few more servers and at least two bartenders on duty when you are expecting a big party. Better to be over-prepared instead of under-prepared.

My friend and I wanted a couple of drinks and Cheesecake Factory was packed so we decided to come to elephant bar since it was right next door. There was no wait and the bar was empty(not a good sign). We ordered our drinks; I got the jungle colada and she got the Mai tai. They were both ok. Nothin special. I decided I was a little hungry but not enough for a whole entrée. I’m a sucker for a good Mac and cheese so I got a side of Mac and cheese hoping it would be amazing. And my friend got the Thai high salad. When our food came out, my Mac and cheese looked good but her salad was a bagged salad wth fancy wok’d chicken nuggets in it. What kind of «trendy» restaurant serves bagged salad? Or chicken nuggets instead of nicely sliced chicken? Then I take a bite of my Mac and cheese and it was most definitely boxed Mac and cheese. I tried to eat a few bites but I just couldn’t. It was horrible. My friend and I were extremely unsatisfied with everything. We left disappointed. Next time we would rather just wait an hour for the cheesecake factory bar.

The food was very good but the service left something to be desired. For the most part everything tasted good and was well prepared. My wifes Mongolian beef had some tough peppers but you usually do not eat them anyway. This is the first restaurant I have ever been to where they bring your salad, after they bring you your entrée. Before we finished our meal we were asked if we would like dessert. This made us feel a bit rushed and like they were in a hurry to get us checked out. We ordered dessert and our bill was brought to us before our dessert. Maybe we wanted to order more…

Went here for Valentines day. We ordered the potato skin appetizzer which was actually awesome. The entrees were just sad. I got some country chicken and my man got a ribeye. He liked his steak but my meal was inedible. The manager gave us a free dessert and took my meal off the bill, which was respectable. Would I come back-never, recommend– never. Should have just waited in the mile long line for The Cheesecake Factory.

Terrible service. The food is even worse. Don’t know what happen to this once popular restaurant but it went downhill fast. I would not eat here even if the food was free.

Had dinner here recently with 3 other adults. Service was quick, attentive. Good menu selection. Good drinks selection as well. We had the carmalized pear burger and the lamb chops. Both were very good. We declined dessert offers, but there were good selections. would definitely eat here again.”

Ever went to one of those places where you leave thinking It wasn’t bad, it was not great so your desire to return is minimal. It had been a few years since being here and ordered pot stickers, orange peel chicken, and a couple of tequila based drinks. I’ll admit the drink was really good, it went down too fast, it was one of those cocktails where after three of them, you be buzzing quite a bit. The pot stickers were ok, hot and fresh, but no big deal. I ordered the orange peel chicken which had great orange zest type taste, but the chicken was missing something, that I’ve got gotten at other places, it didn’t have a crispiness to the pieces so it was mundane. We didn’t order off the desert menu either, I think this place needs to update/add new menu items and I left the place thinking, I didn’t need to return for another 3 years.

This fuckin place… where do I start? First of all their service is atrocious. My lady and I ordered an appetizer and 2 entrees. Our 2 drinks were maybe refilled once(I was very dehydrated when I left). Our appetizer of pot stickers arrived after our entrees were served and was ice cold. The steak tasted like what I would imagine a steak would tasted like if Slim Jim sold steaks. The Alfredo that the misses got had the blandness of licking a rock. I’ve had better top Ramen. The price was cheap, but so are the hot dogs at Circle K and they have more flavor. This place was so terrible that I don’t even like Elephants anymore. Yes, I am booking a trip to Africa to harvest illegal ivory tusks so I can take them back to the restaurant and shove them up the chefs ass.

Have gone there regularly for several years, but the last time they had a new — and higher priced — menu. A couple of us ordered salads for $ 14 – 16 each and were so disappointed that they were mostly greens with just a small amount of whatever were the toppings. Way way too expensive for the little bit of stuff that was in it. Another friend’s fries were cold, but they did replace them. Not likely to be going back there any time soon.

The four of us all ordered either salads with grilled chicken or chicken sandwiches. Everyone’s chicken was completely dried out and super thin. It was like a three day old piece of pounded out chicken breast. Pretty gross. We went for dinner on a Saturday night and it was totally dead. When we got there a few tables in the bar were seated with couples over 70. By the time we were done the dining room was about half full with only people over 70. I guess it’s because of the area? I will never go back to this place. It was disgusting and the worst meal I have had in a long time.

I come here all the time with my boyfriend and friends for their happy hour– it is awesome! Sad to see the buffalo chicken tenders off the HH menu, but good opportunity for us to try something new. The potato skins with buffalo chicken is very good and filling. It’s only $ 1 more to add the chicken, and you’ll get lots of it. What a steal! Please keep it like that. The green tea cooler and Moscow mule is really good as well! My boyfriend loves how there’s a piece of ginger candy on the drink. Sweet potato fries are consistently great. Service is consistently great. I’ve never had to wait in line for HH, there’s always a spot open at the bar area. Happy hour here is the best!

Neat looking place with nice decorations, clean restaurant and friendly staff. The food on the other hand not very impressive. The Mongolian beef was over cooked, tuff and not very good. Mashed potatoes were disgusting according to my daughter who loves all forms of potatoes. Philly cheese steak was greasy, the bread fell apart, and had little flavor. Parmessian crusted chicken with pasta-the shrimp ate delicious, the chicken had no flavor, pays was good wroth Alfredo sauce. The mammoth appetizer was descent as well as the chicken lettuce wrap. All in all the place looks nice, good service, nice decorations, but the food was not that good. Perhaps for appetizers and drinks.

New menu now. All side items ala cart. Very expensive for what you get. Doubt we will ever be back. The day we went for lunch at noon time the place was dead. Service was below standards. Prediction is this unit will close at this rate. Wound up ordering soup and salad. Salad was about the worst dinner salad ever.

Nothing wrong with this Philly Cheesesteak. Overall everything good at this outpost of the chain. The appetizers had some potential with a decent version of coconut shrimp and potstickers. The spinach dip could use some help though. The sandwich was packed with ribeye steak, onions, peppers and provolone cheese. It came(for 99 cents extra) with a loaded baked potato and that too had a good amount of cheese and bacon. Food is usually reliable at this chain.

My family has been here a few times over the past few years. Essentially, every time we attempt to give this place«another chance,» we are sorely let down. Put simply, while the food is mediocre(i.e., nothing special), the service ruins this place. Our most recent trip resulted in a wait of 15 minutes before our drink/entrée orders. While not too bad, the waiter never returned to refill our drinks. We didn’t see her again until after we notified the gentleman that brought our food out that we needed refills. Essentially, she took our order and left — only to return to collect payment. It was a bad reminder as to why we avoid this place.

I’ve been coming here for a few years and I love your food. The service is good too Ashley in the bar area is a sweetheart. But the last few times I’ve been in the portions have been getting smaller. Other people have commented about that too. You are still four star get the servings back to where they should be. Thanks.

I love a joint with a good happy hour and this place delivers. $ 3 off ALL apps(including the samplers!) $ 4 wells, $ 2 off specially cocktails, $ 1 off drafts/wine. HH goes from 3 – 7 and 9-cl. We went with the burger/beer special tonight. We were beyond satisfied with the HUGE bacon cheese burger with all the fix-ins PLUS a beer and fries for $ 6.95. Best burger I’ve had in a looooong time. But if your not in the mood for«bar food» they have some great dishes on the regular menu as well. The Jambalaya is so very tasty as is the shrimp soup with salmon. My husbands always gets the ribs. And always eats every last bite. For dessert you MUST try the Mud Pie. It’s huge, so definitely share it. You won’t be disappointed!

Service was good but food was mediocre. Went in expecting to use a coupon, which limited what we could order, but having never come in we figured it would be alright. Ended up ditching that idea to order what we wanted. I tried the Tri-tip, fiancé ordered a build-your-own burger and got a salmon filet. My meat was a little over-cooked, but tasty. Potatoes were very yummy, but the veggies, in all seriousness, were sad. Fiancé’s burger was a slightly dry, however, it had really good flavor. I was thrown off by the depressing side of fries on his plate, though. All in all, I wouldn’t come back and order something with a veggie side, but the service was enough to make me reconsider a visit.
