Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Élephante Santa Monica offers a vibrant rooftop dining experience with "great food" and "amazing views" of the ocean. Guests appreciate the "beautiful ambiance" and "excellent service," though some note it can be "very loud." The whipped eggplant and spicy vodka pasta are standout dishes. Perfect for social outings!

The view was beautiful, the drink was great, and the best dish was the Gulf shrimp! Service? 3/10 They were too busy chatting and laughing in their own world, forgetting to serve. When they suddenly remembered, the smile was gone. They were chatting while I was trying to order, and while I was still eating and had plenty of food left on the table and an unfinished drink, they asked if I wanted to take it to go. “Very interesting.”
