It was lovely to walk in to such a clean and beautifully simple dining space. The atmosphere gave us a most pleasant time to reminisce, tell stories, and catch up. Our server was most patient and polite. Thank You Silk Elephant!

5 out 5⭐️

We had the calamari, and two noodle bowls. I got the spicy siracha & my husband had a garlic pesto. It was AMAZING. Will definitely go back. We went on a Monday around 12pm and they were pretty empty (as to be expected for a Monday afternoon) but still had good, timely service. We had our baby with us and unfortunately they don’t have a changing station in the women’s restroom. But otherwise- it was great! ❤️

Awesome Food!!!!! Friendly Fast The Best!!
