We had an amazing meal last evening at Elske! We chose the “Set Menu” option to get a sampling of all the different options and we were not disappointed. Each course was unique and delicious and, although small plates, we were pleasantly full at the end of the meal. The ambiance was cozy and buzzy without being too loud. The service was kind, prompt and knowledgeable. They let me try a couple of red wines to have with my beef course! Overall, the experience was awesome and well worth the trek into the city!! Highly recommended!!!
