    Elements is a stunning location ion Paradise Valley and has spectacular views. The food was delicious, but the service was very slow during our visit. Our waiter, although trying to be gracious did not impress.

    Terrific night at Elements- our best night of dining there ever. So fun to see sushi on the menu and we loved the creative and yummy "Love at First Bite." Husband declared it the best sushi he ever ate and exciting to eat. I was reluctant to order a cocktail as I have previously found them to be sparse, but martini was first rate and appropriately sized. All of our food was excellent. Enjoy the mixed green salad, which we shared, and it was plenty. Filet was prepared at the exact requested temperature and Chilean sea bass was delicious. Appreciated the anniversary dessert. Unfortunately we left our unfinished wine behind- would have been nice if the staff had noticed and let us know before we departed. The restaurant has ceased its bread service and now charges for an order of focaccia. Missed the rolls with which the meal previously began. Please consider bringing them back! All in all, a great night. Service was excellent and the atmosphere was quiet and elegant.

    Food was not good enough for prices. Ahi Tuna Steak had way too much pepper taste. All I tasted was pepper. My wife’s steak was nothing special at this price point. Asparagus was undercooked and mushrooms too salty. At these prices, there are much better dining establishments to dine at in the Phoenix area.
