   Thumping music Open table menu not even close to actual menu Food was decent but bbq sauce is not a substitute for a sauce which was largely used for the Brunswick stew. All vegan

   Great food, ambiance and value. TV's were a bit of distraction but easy to tune out.

   Nice place, I honestly didn't realize it was plant only menu. Even multiple of us read the menu before going. I think they could make it more obvious. Having said that, we had the impossible burger and buffalo chik'n sandwich which were good. If plant based isn't your thing, just be aware. I was a nice change.

   It was a bit loud. But more than that while the food was good I was rather disappointed with the chilaquiles. For $18 I expected more. The "salad" wasn't a side, it was barely a garnish. Very small amount of salad was given. The pineapple pico I'm sure would have been tasty, but there was barely any there. And there was certainly none of the dressing the menu said would be on it. Basically my "salad" was maybe a 1/4 cup of lettuce, a couple very small rings of red onion, maybe a tablespoon or less of the pico and no dressing. The chik'n strips were thin and in some cases overcooked and certainly not enough to be a filling meal. The chilaquiles themselves were tasty, I just wish that for $18 I got a filling meal and didn't ha to go eat again a couple hours later because I was still starving. All in all we paid $60 for a dinner that should have been half that based on what we actually got. And that's my biggest complaint. The food was delicious just mine wasn't near filling and it was overpriced for what you get. I'd be willing to try them again if the prices become more realistic. Also, the server wasn't terribly friendly. More apathetic than anything else. The host was very friendly and so I was a bit shocked at the level of service the rest of the time.

   If you don’t care about an apathetic waiter that brings the wrong items, then you will enjoy the food. The waiter never said hi, gave me his name, or did anything to make me feel welcome. He then brought the wrong drink. I had to flag him down to get the correct one. He brought the new drink and plopped it on the table without saying a word and turned away. He then brought the wrong meal. In did not say anything and ate it because at that point I just wanted to be gone. The food was delicious, but I felt uncomfortable and unwelcome the entire time I was there.

    Orderd the taco salad. Would have liked to have vegan cheese and black beans on it. It was very generic. Waiter was not attentive. Observed him outside/in front of the restaurant vaping, would have been nice if he checked on us.... they weren't busy. Overheard some employee's swearing, there was a table with children next to us.

    Went for brunch and was looking forward to a regular brunch menu only to find it was not a regular brunch menu. Didn't enjoy my salad; got the cobb salad but too much buffalo sauce.

    2nd time at this place really good selections of vegan food the prices are very reasonable we sat at a table outside just because that particular day it had a small festival going on in front of the restaurant but it was nice I didn’t mind the noise. We got some burgers and a kale Caesar. This was my 1st time being able to finish the burger because it was huge but I had to take the salad to go because it was also huge. We had the BBQ chik with blue cheese dressing as an appetizer very delicioussss! Would recommend.

    Server seemed quite distracted the entire time. Creamer/spoon was brought out 15 minutes after coffee after asking 4 times. No real breakfast items although they described it as a brunch menu. Impossible burgers were good, but breakfast burrito was mediocre.

    Shared Kale Caesar which tasted totally non-vegan, soo good. (Not that vegan tastes bad!) My husband, not totally Vegan, Yet! Loved his meatball sub, I had the fried chikn sandwich, so big I took some home. This was great also, and the coleslaw I ordered on the side. You can pick one side and I got the fries, enjoyable as well. We definitely felt we got our money’s worth.

    I reserved a sit inside and they insisted on sitting us outside in the heat of the day and with the noise of a band playing outside. I know the reservation was made for inside since I was bringing my 83 year old mother who can’t be in the heat or the sun. We ended up going someplace else. The hostess did not even try to find an alternative.
    

    Element GastropubResponded on September 6, 2022I'm really sorry to hear about this Sandra, will discuss this with the FOH Manager and Hostess and figure out why we could not accommodate. Personally if my 83 year old mother or grandmother wants to sit inside, she gets what she wants! Unacceptable and will address this. Thank you.

    Poor service. Made a reservation and waited at the door for 5-10 minutes without greeting. Someone finally yelled to just sit anywhere. So we did. And waited 20 minutes and were never approached or acknowledged or told someone would be with us shortly. They seemed to all have given up. We’ve eaten here many times before with much better results so it was disappointing. We finally just left and had a great dinner at the Overlook in the Residence Inn with awesome service. Would never have discovered this gem if not for the lack of service at Element.

    I was hoping this food would be OK, but my expectations were exceeded because it is delicious! It does not matter if you are a vegan or not, you need to at least try this place once. I am not a fan of real meat, and I usually dislike vegan meats (to me it's something pretending to be what I don't like in the first place), but, I ordered the spicy noodles dish and thoroughly enjoyed them. My friend and husband ordered the tacos and BBQ sando, respectively, and they loved theirs as well (and they both love meat). They also have a nice cocktail and draft beer selection. We will definitely be going back here in the near future.

    They have great vegan options. I don't necessarily recommend the tofu wings or the coleslaw; however, the impossible burger was very good. The actual inside seating was a little muggy when I went, but the service was good. I would personally go back again.

    The food was incredible! Our party consisted of three omnivores and a pescatarian and we thought everything was completely delicious. The fried chick’n sandwich was enormous and the breading unique and delicious. Cocktails were innovative and tasty. The standout for us was the seasoned fries— never had anything like them! Can’t wait to go back!
