$$$$Price: Very Expensive • Steakhouse • Ridgeland
Wonderful fine dining experience. Upon entering the restaurant are warmly greated by the hostess, inregards to reservations. In the distance you can barely hear faint conversations over the distinct sound of silverware touching porcelain plates. I knew then I was in the right place for a great meal.
Our waitress Amanda greated us promptly and quickly took our drink and food orders. We started with the Shrimp and Crawfish dip truly a warm creamy delight. Let me just say we got shrimp with every dip! We then placed our entree orders. My wife ordered the 6oz Fillet Louisiane (med well). Her steak was like butter! It melted in your mouth. Then it came topped with (3) large perfectly cooked shrimp and creamy sauce. I selected the 18-20oz Ribeye (med well). This steak was a nicely sized and seasoned with a great seard exterior crust and just the right amount of marbling top with seasoned butter. The steaks both came with your choice of salad. We choice the house with homemade ranch dressing. We order (2) sides the Cheesy Bacon and Brocolli Au-gratin, and the Asiago Mac and Cheese. The mac and cheese was a true pallet pleaser by itself. The broccoli was tender with just enough snap, with bacon and cheeese very pleased with it. These sides were great portions and enough to share. The that manager that night was Chris, half way towards then end of our meal, he greated us at the table and thanked us for dining at Ely's for our anniversary. That was very nice. Most managers aren't known or seen until an issue arises. Lastly we fished the experience with the rich and flavorful Salted Carmel Cheescake.
