    The marketing at this place is really good. There is absolutely zero need to make a reservation. There were 5 tables occupied on Saturday night. The waiter was pulled from another restaurant & was okay. He tried hard, but didn’t know much about the menu. He didn’t know if they had iced tea to give you an idea. There are about 5 booths which were cool, but the place is a pig with lipstick. Hence the poor attendance from consumers. The food was average; very average. I’m not a normal reviewer & definitely not a tough customer or critic, but it’s not worth it. Maybe if you want to go there for drinks only it would be better. It was disappointing.

    Beautiful space - well decorated. Service was impeccable! The food was not for me. Many of the items we ordered were over seasoned - either too sweet, or too salty.

    Truly one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in Dallas. Elephant East exceeded every expectation—from the exceptional food to the personalized cocktails, every detail was thoughtfully executed. The three-course tasting menu elevated the experience to something truly memorable, with each dish more impressive than the last. I honestly can’t decide what stood out more: the food or the drinks. The cocktails were tailored to individual preferences, which made the experience feel all the more special. Fleet, the bartender, was phenomenal—his creativity and attention to detail took the evening to the next level. The ambience was unlike anything else in the city—stylish, intimate, and full of character. Elephant East is a true hidden gem in Dallas, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. I’ll absolutely be returning.

We can’t wait to welcome you back for another unforgettable evening! Warmly, The Elephant East Team
