I ate at the Elm in November, while visiting family. I have dreamed about their squash pasta dish ever since my visit! The staff was incredibly helpful with suggestions and explaining the dishes. We tried so many things on the menu (the crispy potatoes, ricotta bread, carrot tar tar- I know I am not using the correct names!) Absolutely everything was truly amazing. Amazing service and truly outstanding food. I am anxious to return!
The duck I had this evening was perfect. Every bite on the plate was excellent and perfectly balanced. The puréed parsnip was delightful.
We love being able to walk to The Elm from the B-Town Bungalow. Always a good recommendation for alumni's looking for something new, close by and great atmosphere.
