About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Innovative
  • Great for creative cocktails
ELEM is a new restaurant and cocktail lab on Main + 5th.

Guests can expect to indulge in Top Chef Canada alum Mayekar’s bold cooking, featuring creative flavour-packed dishes that highlight the unique spices from cuisines around the world with local ingredients, alongside Winnie Sun’s inventive, element-inspired and sustainability-driven cocktails.

ELEM’s food menu is an exploration of flavours and spices from all corners of the world, including Bangkok, California, Spain, Mexico, Italy, and Mumbai – all inspired by Mayekar’s extensive travels and Indian heritage. There will also be a big focus on local BC-grown ingredients.

The 2,946 square foot, 76-seat space was designed by Vancouver-based Marko Simcich Architect and features three dining spaces and an open window into the kitchen to see the chefs at work.

    Fantastic cocktails, service and food. Looking forward to going again when there is another menu change. Best brussel sprouts I’ve ever had hands down.

    The food is terrible! It has a strong herbal and spice taste! The dessert is simply "dark cuisine" and is hard to swallow~

    Our server went above and beyond! He got us extra chips for the venison tartare before we had a chance to ask. The Dungeness crab toast was packed with flavor; the gnocchi texture was light and fluffy, and we loved the sauce - it wasn't rich at all, which suites our preference. It was exactly to their description, "spring". It didn't leave us feeling bloated or full, like other gnocchi dishes typically do. The brussels sprouts was a great side dish, and they managed to add their own twist, which we enjoyed. We were surprised with 2 desserts, one was a birthday cake and the other was the chicago popcorn dessert which left us drooling. The drinks were great and unique. Lovely ambiance. Would return and recommend highly to others!

    We had another great experience at Elem , great delicious food , exceptional service . This time I took couple of my friends , they said they will go back again. My suggestion is do “let us cook for you “ option and you will be surprised with the exceptional tastes you have not experienced in other restaurants .

    The food was absolutely amazing and will have to go back to try the ones we didn’t get to. The staff was very attentive and very accommodating. We also got a tour of the restaurant which was a very nice introduction.

    A truly unforgettable experience. The room is stunning, and well designed to minimize noise—it was bustling when I dined there, and could talk to folks at my table in a normal voice, even to my elderly father with hearing issues. The food…simply spectacular! Flavours and ingredient combinations are so unique and global, while going perfectly well together. Try anything and everything. And the service was outstanding. Friendliest and most professional staff made us feel truly cared for. Congratulations to the ELEM team 🙌🏽
