   Ambiance and music was great, food was good as well. Service was okay, not sure if it was because of our terrible table placement in the back room near the entrance. They really should have planned the layout of this place better to avoid having so many tables being in bad locations. We walked into the main room when we were done and it was like a whole different restaurant. Overall would return but would definitely try to get a table in the main room.

   Shrimp was obliterated don’t recommend it but the rest of the food was amazing. Diver scallops were very good. The pasta and salads are great, arancini was on point, spinach was bland but cooked very well. Chocolate Torta is to die for

   Thank you for an incredible dining experience at Elephante! All of the dishes were outstanding. Our favorites were the scallops and whipped eggplant. Service was also on point! Will most definitely be coming back again.

   We were forced to sit at a low to the ground table that was very uncomfortable. Not advised about that when we made the reservations. Long delays to get service. We ordered drinks and then appetizers and the drinks never came until we asked after we had eaten all of the appetizers. Then without warning our waiter disappeared and a different waiter appeared and said she was taking over. Should have been a much better experience for the price.

   Didn’t get checked in properly so they stuck us outside in the hot sun without even an apology. Food mediocre.
