    Don’t know why we waited so long to try Elsie’s Table. Excellent service, food, and experience. The GM even gave me a recommendation for where to find something I liked on the menu. Only thing to note is the size, definitely need a reservation.

    It was the first visit to Elsie's Table for a group of friends. Each of us had a terrific meal and each meal was different. The quality of the food and presentation were fabulous. We booked another visit before we left. This is our new-found, local haunt. Thank you!

    Had awesome experience dining at Elsie's Table last night. Hadn't been there in a while only because of holidays and other events scheduled. Eric was quite helpful in getting us seated and always happy to see us. Hershel was excellent as waiter. Trust me this crew I was with challenged him, but he was up for it all. He did a great job! We see so many friends and neighbors whenever we go there and last night no exception. You are certainly doing something right since we all keep coming back. Please keep it up!

    We waited for our table at the bar and ordered wine. The bar tender showed the glass she was about to fill to someone, presumably an owner or manager, to show that the name was not etched. The glass was passed aroung and then returned to the bar tender who proceeded to finish filling it. We had to ask for a glass that had not been handled by others. The noise level is unpleasant. It is wonderful that the restaurant is doing well and filled but it was very uncomfortable. BTW, we are in our 80's and could have hearing problems. Fortunately, we don't but it would have come in handy last night. The tables are very small. I assume that was to fit more tables in the relatively small space. I felt like I was on top of the others at the table.
