    Elliott’s on Linden is our neighborhood jewel reserved for special occasions. Last evening was our anniversary. I normally think of the duck as my dish, but I’ve been rewarded by the lamb shank and tonight, the seared striped sea bass, with vegetable medley perfectly complimentary to the filet. Before dinner we enjoyed a tray of fresh succulent oysters with 3 alternative garnishes. Nice touch with the staff’s signed anniversary card, including our waitress, Taylor, who was talented and attentive. Well done, as always.

    We hadn’t been to Elliott’s in many years and were excited to return, especially after seeing the beautiful new interior. We remembered the five-star service and exceptional food that once made this a standout dining experience. Unfortunately, this visit fell short on both counts—particularly given the premium pricing. It was disappointing to see a once-wonderful restaurant lose the excellence we had so fondly remembered.
    Elliotts on LindenResponded 1 day ago
    Hello Denise, Thank you for such an honest reflection of your experience. We are deeply disturbed by the fact that we were on your minds for a long time, and once you returned we did not provide you all with the highest level of dining that we have become reputable for. We apologize for not upholding that standard, and letting you down. We would love to get a reflection of your experience if you do not mind letting us know where we went wrong, and how it could have been better for you. What were the issues with the service and food you received? We would love to have you back to redeem ourselves, and we look forward to hearing from you! Charles Woodard Assistant General Manager

    An unforgettable dining experience. The chef at Elliot’s showcases remarkable culinary talent, matched by equally impressive bartending. We started with the lobster bisque—easily the best I’ve ever had—along with the cepeachi and crab hush puppies, each beautifully crafted and full of robust flavor. For entrées, we enjoyed the filet mignon and salmon—both cooked to perfection and creatively presented. We paired them with a smooth Merlot, seriously THE BEST Old Fashioned I’ve had to date, and a rich espresso martini. Dessert was the grand finale: the sticky bread pudding and chocolate torte were indulgent and unforgettable. We used some of the caramel torte drizzle on the chocolate torte and it was chef’s kiss. Service was top-notch—especially from Matt (the older one), whose wit, professionalism, and attentiveness elevated the experience. We left with full bellies and completely blown away by the evening.

    Very nice dinner - special occasion and Taylor (our server) did a fantastic job with being attentive while also allowing us a chance to relax, not feel rushed and enjoy the meal and atmosphere. The food was good and very enjoyable, platings looked elegant - the short rib risotto and the sticky toffee desert fell a bit short but the other items more than made up for it!
    Elliotts on LindenResponded on June 20, 2025
    Hi Thomas, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Taylor is a new addition to our staff, and she is proving to be a stellar coworker. Thank you for bringing the issue with the short rib risotto and sticky toffee to my attention. I will speak with the chef to ensure all recipes are being followed as this would create inconsistent dishes that do not showcase our chef's talent. Thank you again and we look forward to seeing you again soon! Cheers, Karin Yonish General Manager

    Fabulous as always. We had the octopus, short rib risotto and the filet mignon. Meat was so tender, it almost melted in your mouth! Drinks didn’t disappoint either. Wine selection is always top notch and specialty cocktails are fun and tasty! I had the Velvet Elvis, very refreshing and delicious! Lastly, service and attention to detail is always second to none! One of my favorite restaurants in The Pines❣️

    Hello Hector! Thank you so much for leaving such a wonderful review! All of those items you named are popular and loved by all! They're even some of my favorite dishes! Each of those dishes have beautifully balanced flavors. The Velvet Elvis is a wonderful creation! Such complex flavors, yet not too overwhelming on the pallet. And next time you're back you have to try our new Bacon Fat Washed Old Fashion! Thank you for your continued support! We try to make each evening special and we are glad we executed once again for you. Keep coming back and we will keep you happy Hector! Charles Woodard Assistant General Manager.

    We had an A+ meal at EOLs during a few day visit to the Pinehurst area. We loved the ambiance in the Rooster Bar and our host, the bartender, Zach. We had the Short Rib Risotto that came with a healthy portion of delicious pesto as a shared appetizer. Then we split a huge portion of Pork Schnitzel that came on a bed of the best barely sweet creamed corn you will ever have. The corn still had an appealing snap and the entire dish paired well sides of scallion mashed potatoes (which could have been hotter) and delicious asparagus. Drinks wise, my hubby has an extra dry martini that was extremely generous and I had a pink sparkling wine that was delicious and lightened up the meal. We did skip dessert only because we were stuffed but the sticky toffee pudding sounded divine. We'd absolutely recommend. There was a really neat private "room", seating 6 or 8 top next to the bar that looked like a chicken coop. Neat idea and can be reserved.

    Hello Mimi! Thank you for the wonderful review! We appreciate the reflection of your experience. I love to be able to visualize dining experiences through reviews. It really helps us evolve everyday! The little details matter, and it keeps us on our toes. We are always looking to be better than the day before! Also, we will take note about the mashed potatoes and ensure that is not a problem again! The sticky toffee is crowd pleaser! We have to have you back just so you can try it! Thank you again, and we look forward to having you back with us! Charles Woodard Assistant General Manager

    We had 8:15pm we arrived early, so we had a cocktail at the bar. Bartender was excellent, cocktails were amazing, and he made a few recommendations for dinner, and they turned out to be spot on. We were finally called for our table at 8:30. It took another 10 minutes for the server to come by and get our order. Food took forever to come out, but when it did, it was delicious. In hindsight, we should have just eaten in the bar.

We hold ourselves accountable for everything we do here and we apologize for the wait you endured. We would love for you to join us again and allow us to be able to make up for your last visit in anyway we can! Thank you again, and we look forward to having you back.
