August was fantastic! He greeted us warmly and suggested a unique twist on a graduation Aperol Spritz. Normally, that drink can lean a bit bitter, but his custom recipe was perfectly balanced and absolutely delicious. His friendly personality and creativity made the experience memorable. Kudos to him!

My husband and I enjoyed a night out at the Cotton for a fantastic meal, and the Eli last night! Thank you to August for an excellent espresso martini or 2!

My husband and I recently discovered our new favorite spot, and we can't wait to return! Although we aren't locals, we were recommended to check out The Cotton. However, what we found above The Cottage was a hidden gem—an intimate, cozy bar and dining experience that felt like stepping into a charming speakeasy. The Eli had such a unique vibe that we instantly felt at home.

The food was absolutely phenomenal, but it was our waiter, August, who truly made the evening unforgettable. He was not only a knowledgeable and skilled bartender but also had an amazing personality that added to the overall experience. We especially enjoyed dining in two oversized wingback chairs, which made our evening feel even more special.

We will definitely be back, and we highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food, drinks, and a wonderful atmosphere!

This was my first time visit The Eli and I will definitely be back. I went for a solo dinner and sat at the bar and the bartender August was so nice and sweet and made my experience at The Eli amazing. Plus he makes an amazing French 75!

Me and some girlfriends hosted our book club here this month and there isn’t enough good words to share on the whole experience. Bishop took great care of us, the atmosphere was perfect, the food and drinks were delicious. 10/10 recommend! We will definitely be back. ?
