Server was great! Food not so much. Steak was overdone and chewy. Veggies watery. Salad brown. Cake dry.

the service was excellent, our drinks were never empty and our server checked in with us regularly to see if we needed anything and the food was very good.

Service was top notch, the pizza not so much...it was a a step above a frozen store pizza.Husband enjoyed his sliders. May go with those on a return visit. But the server "J", was amazing.
Service and food were excellent. The server brought water without being asked, which impressed me very much, & was friendly & personable. The only negative was that the preparer forgot to include the bread which was included in my to-go order and I didn't notice the omission until I got home, too far to go back.
loved the menu and food was great. waiter was very friendly also.
The restaurant was empty & unattended when I got there although it was open. I had to go looking for the waiter. The food was excellent but there was very little lettuce, less than a cupful, in the to-go Caesar salad but I didn't know that until I got it home.
Love the experience, the waiter is excellent with his customers...very attentive.
The waiter was very attentive and personal. Kept close tab on our dining needs.
Hold our board meeting there every other month and have dinner each time. The fish tacos are good as is the sirloin salad.
The waiter was on spot. Alice's Chips are fanstastic. I ordered the ribeye and it was cooked to perfection. My date ordered the Citrus Salmon and loved it. The sides were also great, fresh and tasty. We will go here often from now on.
The server was most pleasant and attentive to our needs.
Waiter was wonderful, pleasant, and nice. Restaurant was clean. Waiter very attentive
" J " waitperson delightful and very accomidating.. even with the channel on the T.V.

Burger was good, wife enjoyed the salmon.
Burger was good, wife enjoyed the salmon.
Nice atmosphere and the gentleman that waited on us was very friendly and very attentive.
ordered the salmon and it was just wonderful..also had garlic mashed potatoes and veggie medley. everything was perfect.
We looked at the menu on-line before going to dinner but when we got there we were handed a menu that had much less to choose from. We came thinking we would be able to get what we saw on-line and were disappointed with the selection of items on the "new" menu. Food was ok but nothing special. Seating was not very comfortable. Staff were pleasant.
Food was good. Service was a little slow; one server and he had quite a few patrons to serve.
Relaxed atmosphere.
Waitress was very nice and helpful.
Online menu shows items not on the menu at the restaurant. The card at the table showed snacks were available at the time we were there, but none were out.
Service is always great! B and Tammy are the best. They know their customers and always makes dinning there a wondeerful experience. I will say I am not thrill at all with the menu changed--quality and selections are not as appealing as before.
This is for the 8/9/16 visit. The menu had changed and apparently is much more limited. I got two Caesar salads with chicken to go and paid over $20 not including the certificate. The Ciabatta was missing. I didn't get at all good value for my money. I will give them one more chance.
customer service was a bit slow because there was only one host/waiter
Food was perfectly prepared. The chef is most excellent !
Ate at bar. Bartender very attentive.
Excellent service
Got there when opened, some items on Buffet were not completed heated..but was a good selection.
The servers were nice. the food was only fair. The crab bisque had very little crab flavor. The shrimp (2 small)on the broiled seafood platter seemed to be warmed up from the boiled shrimp for shrimp cocktail. I had to ask for rolls that went with the meal.
All of the food including the salad, soup, and entrée were so good. The cajun salmon was perfectly prepared and awesome. I would highly recommend it. Our server, Tammy provided perfect service. Overall, an excellent dining experience.

Crab cakes were delicious as was everything else.
The atmosphere leaves something to be desired, it feels like I'm eating in a hotel - not a stand-alone restaurant. The server, Arul I believe, was fantastic.
The restaurant was easy to access and had plenty of room. Very relaxed atmosphere. Salads, vegetables, and desserts were excellent. Filet Mignon was good but the grilled chicken cordon blue left something to be desired. Waitress was very friendly.
Good food at reasonable prices.
good food, great service.
Good food, service, and atmosphere.
Very good food, generous portions.
The good was delicious and wonderfully priced. Our server went above and beyond to ensure we were taken care of. Great family environment.
The service was as great as the food. Everyone was very friendly and most helpful.
Great service and food
Food and service was good. Booth seat was awkward due to broken a spring. It is more of a bar that serves food than a restaurant with a bar.
Good food. Fair pricing.
service not up to my standards, waiter very obnoxious.
we stopped there on our way home after a trip north
Terrific spinach salad with salmon, black beans, and corn salsa. I was pleasantly surprised with the flavor and presentation. I would definitely recommend this dish and would order it again.
The atmosphere was nice```the food very good with large portions````the service outstanding````the only drawback was the mixed drink (an Old Fashion)````the drink was extremely weak, but the price EXTREMELY strong ($8.00)```we will dine again for the food and the service, but will NIX the mixed drink````
We had a very good time there. This was our second time there since they opened, as we do not live close by. Our waitress was very good and pleasant to talk to. We were not rushed yet we did not have to wait long between courses. I don't know way people give them bad reviews on this. The food is excellent! We will return again.
Servers and waiters and bartender went above and beyond. Very enjoyable atmosphere and food was delicious!!!!
Good service and good food.
Food is very good, portions are ample, and the restaurant is extremely clean. Very enjoyable experie4nce.
The time to get the prepared food was a little long.
The food took FOREVER to come. Even the desserts took forever also. Do NOT plan to go back there again!!
Great crab cakes and was impressed with presentation of veggies.
the atmosphere was pleasant and the staff was friendly
We had to wait 10 minutes for a waitress to take our drink orders, and the place only had people at 2 other tables.Our food took 50minutes to prepare. I had the bistro steak 1. not at all a steak2. Asked for medium rare came out well done.3. Was supposed to have red wine, mushroom pepper corn sauce. What a bunch of bologna that was.it tasted like straight out of the package dry gravy mix. Really bad.4.Husbands ribs were terrible loaded with small shards of bone.Although the staff was friendly.The food and wait time were absolutely horrible. Everyone else was done with their meal and mine had not come out yet. Waited another 15 minutes for the check. Will not go back!
The food & service is always great.
Steve adn his crew provided excellent service. In addition, I left my credit card at the restaurant abd although the restaurant had closed after lunch Steve put it in an envelope with my name on it and lefyt it at the front desk for me to pick up.
Food was good.Desserts were terrible. Cheesecake tasted like it came from a poor box recipe. Apple pie was cold in the middle.
kids free
Ordered child pizza for my daughter and came out hard as a rock and had to order her hamburger instead. Waitress was very nice about it though.
Food was very good. Preparation a little slow. AC was too cold for my spouse.
Nice atmosphere
he helpings were small the food was brought
Bar patrant were very loud and hard to understand waiter.
Good and fast service, above average food for a hotel restaurant, and ample portions.
The waiter was very attentive and the gentleman at the table doing omeletes, waffles etc gave us wonderful service.
Very low key on a Wednesday night. Our waitress was great, very professional. The food was very good and prompt. The only thing I didn't like was that they were out of Blue Moon on tap, which is a really minor complaint.
good service and good food as always
We have eaten at this restaurant several times and we have never had service that was so slow. Once we placed our order it was almost 20 min. before our appetizer was brought out and an additional 15 minutes before getting our salad and another 15 minutes until we got our entree.
Food Was Average. Service Was Good.
service was a little slow
The food was just okay....
Our waiter was awesome - we had a great dinner and enjoyed our time at the Elephant Walk very much. Thanks!
Near-by home. We have been very pleased overall during the past 5 years, however, this visit the food was not as good as we remember.
Steve & Matthew were awesome! They genuinely cared about the quality of food and service provided. We will definitely add EW to our list of favorites and spread the word. TYVM! Whitney & Deseree
Food was good, service was good, atmosphere kind of depressing. 8:00 on a Friday evening, and the place was kind of dead, which made things seem a little shabby. I'd go again, my wife and son are not as enthusiastic about returning.
Food was great, service was terrible. I did complain with no response. Dinner took over 1 1/2 hours. We waited over 25 minutes for our food and had to ask the bartender for refills because we could not find our waitress.
Food was good but the service was not. We had to ask for drink refills, ranch twice, ice cream twice, and waited 10 to 15 minutes on the check and we had to ask for that.
The waitress was by herself, had to wait on everyone including the bar. The food was good, but it took forever to get it. We were there about l l/2 hrs b4 we got the food.
excellent food
I have been there before when it was a club.It is still a great place to be.
Slow service and small portions.We had three different servers and nobody knew what was going on.
Enjoyed the music of the one man band as well as the friendly service. We got so much food we took it with us to the hotel and ate the rest for dinner the next night!
Enjoyed meal and service, but we always go early before the crowds (5pm) - we like it that way, less noise. Atmosphere is very nice.
Dessert was excellent
Found Elephant Walk through email offer from American Express.
The food was average, but the prices were reasonable.
I had a coupon from Thank You points Restaurant Dining. I had never heard of your restaurant before then. I will spread the word about how nice it is. Thank you!
Food was very good, service was very slow.
The waitress / bartender did a very good job considering she was the only one attending customers....and there were a dozen plus customers all together.
Server was more than excellent
The food was wonderful- freshly made, nd plenty of it. The wait staff were polite, helpful and we never felt rushed.
great food and service
Service wasn't as good as other times at Elephant Walk.
steak was tough, potatoes too long in the microwave! wasted money
They are always out of what we want and it takes long time for food to come at your table, eventhough we were the only customer in the entire restaurant
The Buffett food could have been hotter.
staff was not attentive. We sat there for a long time before and after we had anyone come over to see if we need anything/order. Also there were people who came after us and left before us.
This was our second time there. Very good food and excellent waitstaff. Highly recommend. The crab cakes are authentic, a rare find this far from the coast.
Would not recommend the iced tea. Made from concentrate and had a bad after-taste. Food was warm......not hot.
Did not like the small high table against a wall with poor lighting. Wine serving was very small.this was a Wednesday. I like the service and ambience much better on Saturdays. Probably will not take out of down guest again unless on Saturday.
The food was amazing, I had the beef peppercorn---cooked perfectly.
The staff was very friendly and helpful.
Music was too loud.
