Located upstairs overlooking the Railroad District in Old Town Ridgeland (MS), Ely’s mixes the old with the new, offering time tested dishes in a cozy, upscale, contemporary setting unlike most local steak and seafood restaurants.

    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.

    To get the reservation time we needed we chose the Bar dining area. The patrons at the bar were a little above conversational volume. Next time I will make my reservations earlier so we can get a table in the dining room.

    Traveling through, we stopped and enjoyed the shrimp and crab dip, filet, steak fries, house salad and bread pudding. All were 10/10. Our medium steaks were cooked perfectly. Beautiful atmosphere. Service was impeccable even though the Mosleys who sat next to us, had a starring problem,as my husband’s tattoos and ear piercing made us less than the same class as they were.

    The food and service were wonderful, as always. However, our experience was greatly diminished by a very loud table of women sitting next to us. It really wasn’t anything the manager could’ve done anything about, but it totally ruined my evening. I had gone there to enjoy an outing with my husband, not to listen to them talk about their bridge games and Pilates classes.

    This is my go to spot for special occasions! It was my 1st time making a reservation on Open Table. The $25 fee required if I didn't make it & only available time being just before closing was very deceiving! I suggest you call the restaurant. We went 45 mins early & we were seated immediately (open tables everywhere / maybe they were short-staffed). The food was amazing, but our steaks were a little on the salty side. All of our sides & fish were perfectly cooked & seasoned. You must try the eggplant & blue crab claw appetizers! The staff worked as a team to ensure we had a great experience in an intimate setting.
