Truffle Mac and cheese and brussel sprouts were good. The dry aged steak was ok, it was less flavorful and a bit overcooked than I expected. We asked for medium rare and it looked more like medium or medium well. Maybe because when we make steak at home, we use herbs and aromatics to flavor the steak instead of only salt and pepper. The bread for the classic tartare was more charred than I’d like

Food was wonderful, and the patio seating was a good choice too! The potato and grass fed blue dot beef from Prince Edward Island was one of the best steaks we tried lately. Next time will try the Pine Haven steak from Alberta.

Came here for a birthday dinner and was disappointed with the service. Waitress barely came by (waited for 30+ minutes at a time), didn’t give any rundowns of the menu, and just seemed unengaged. For such a high end restaurant I expected a lot better. That being said, the food was amazing.

Very nice steakhouse. Prices are very steep Our sweet son took hubby and I there for our birthday dinners. Service was very attentive and through. We had the porterhouse and ribeye. Sides included roasted potatoes carrots and onion rings. A nice evening all around

We arrived at Elisa around 7pm and were greeted by a lady at the entrance. She took our name and told us to walk around, saying she would call when a table was available. Since I had an infant and a toddler, I followed her advice and went for a walk in the neighborhood for about an hour. During that time, we noticed empty tables on the patio and also saw guests being moved from the bar to dining tables inside. When we came back after an hour, the table still wasn’t ready, but the patio still had the same empty seats. We ended up waiting outside until 10pm, a total of three hours, and never received a single call or text. During that time, we saw empty tables sit unused and people being moved from the bar into dining tables. I even mentioned that we would be quick since we had two small children, but we were still not seated. What’s most frustrating is that she could have been honest from the beginning. If she had told us that we weren’t going to get a table that night, we wouldn’t have wasted our entire Friday evening with two hungry kids. We gave up and went to Gotham instead, where the front desk staff were professional and kind. The difference in service was very clear. This experience was extremely disappointing and felt discriminatory. Your front desk staff need better training in communication and professionalism so that no other guests have to go through this.

Had my holiday dinner here and came here for a date before. A wonderful experience overall, but it was to be expected in a certain extend.
Serving staff, very educated and and informative. We had steak tartare, 12oz Ribeye from Manitoba and Baked Alaska for dessert (picture).
We had such a great meal, the dessert was the only picture we captured! LOL.
We are so impressed by the plating, the ambiance, and also how helpful the staff are. We made a last minute reservation, and had a blast. Can't wait to come back with friends and family to try so many other great offerings on the menu.

I was quite impressed by Elisa's interior design as the restaurant has a dim but warm and elegant atmosphere. The service was organized as we had a designated server throughout our meal and he made an effort to remember the name that we reserved under. We ordered a tartare, sea scallops, a steak with potato puree and mac + cheese, and crème brûlée. The food tasted good and presentation was stellar. I think I enjoyed the experience more than the dining but I'd recommend this place for special occasions.

It was such a wonderful experience! The ambiance is classy yet cozy, perfect for a date night or special occasion. The service was top-notch! Everyone was super attentive and welcoming. The steaks were cooked to perfection, juicy and flavorful, and the sides paired so well Definitely one of those spots that feels worth every bite and every moment. 🩷
