Very loud music. Can't hear yourself speak. Food was okay. I don't know if the spread was worth $80. The lemon drop drink we had was definitely the best one.
Elysium brunch 10/10. Great vibes, great music, and the food was incredible. The fish and oxtails did not disappoint! 😋✨ Eve the owner is amazing matching the vibes
Beautiful venue! The food and drinks were a 10/10. The chef personally greeted us and our bartender was very attentive. I would recommend the lamb chops, wings, and lemon drop ❤

Elysium offers a brunch experience with specific dishes receiving high praise, including oxtail mac & cheese, Oreo waffles, grits, lamb chops, jollof rice, suya and fries, mac and cheese, wings, and a cool mimosa tower. The food is described as absolutely delicious, cooked to perfection, and the best ever had. The vibe and ambiance are noted by some as impeccable and very nice.
However, experiences with service and atmosphere vary significantly. Some visits report great service from staff and management, describing the co-owners as sweet and welcoming. Other visits, particularly with larger parties, cite disorganized staff, not prompt service, and very long wait times without apology or acknowledgment for celebrations. The environment is sometimes calm, but at other times the music is described as blasting like a club, overwhelming and annoying to the point where conversation is impossible.
Practical aspects include parking, which is available as regular street parking and free on weekends, though you may have to search for a spot. The bathrooms have been noted as not clean and very small. Some physical issues are mentioned, such as wobbly tables and decorative lamps on tables that did not turn on. There is an automatic 20% gratuity. The rooftop area may sometimes be empty. The overall outcome may depend on the time, day, and weather of the visit.
