   The food was spectacular, the staff even better. One of the people in our group has an extreme gluten issue. The staff went over an above, assuring all the proper steps are taken to keep her food gluten-free. We were all extremely impressed. Even better I was surprised as I was walking through the restaurant to find my next-door neighbor there with some friends and swooned about the food. We will definitely be returning soon. J.G.

   The experience was wonderful. We ate delicious food and had some sweet conversation. The informality and hospitality was a lovely combination.

   Just came back from Spirit Elephant’s summer menu tasting and I’m counting down the days until it officially launches! The Tuna Sushi was unreal—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully plated. And don’t even get me started on the crème brûlée cheesecake... hands down one of the best vegan desserts I’ve ever had. Spirit Elephant continues to raise the bar with creative, vibrant dishes that make you forget you’re eating plant-based. Summer can’t come early enough!

   Food was excellent, service was severely lacking. 20% gratuity was added by default but was undeserved due to the server checking in on us minimally during service and then taking so much time between dropping the check, coming back, etc.

   This is a beautiful, bright, totally vegan restaurant with unique recipes for food and drink. The 4 of us loved our apps, drinks, and meals and wished we’d had time for dessert. The service was excellent, as well.

   I have been a huge fan of Spirit Elephant since they opened. The food, the service, the ambience have always been top-notch. I hope someone from the restaurant reads this review and takes it to heart. I asked my husband if he thought the restaurant was under new management because the vibe was so different from previous visits. One of the things that made Spiritual Elephant unique, in addition to the outstanding vegan food was the staff who have always been friendly, knowledgeable and genuinely engaged with customers. This visit was not like that. The overall vibe of the service was bored, IHOP level service My family of 3 had 5:30pm reservations for Easter dinner last night. The restaurant was not terribly busy, nobody was at the desk to greet us. When the manager did come to the desk, he was eating something and wiping his mouth. He & almost every staff member on the floor, had food stains on their shirts. Nothing was said about a limited menu for Easter dinner, the server just slapped menus down on the table and walked away Our server seemed bored & said “Are you ready to order?” Not even making eye contact. Again, the limited menu was not even mentioned. My salad came with a large black hair in it. When I mentioned it to the server, she removed the salad with the same boredom she had displayed thus far. However, the customer service was limited to removing the item from the check & a very casual apology from the manager. Nothing about a comp’d dessert? An offer for a comp’d mocktail? Nothing. The service was efficient, but robotic and disengaged. The food, aside from the black hair in my salad was delicious & beautifully prepared. It’s a competitive market for customers and in this climate, quality staff go a long way toward repeat business.

   This was our first visit to Spirit Elephant. We dined there to have a meatless meal where my wife, who has a seafood allergy, since it was Good Friday. It was wonderful! The cocktails and wine were the same as anywhere. We shared an appetizer of “chicken” eggrolls which were great. My wife had gnocchi with vegetables which she loved and I had to finish! I had the “forbidden summer”:: tofu and veggies in a terrific sauce. Despite the large portions, we shared an unbelievable carrot cake dessert. Our server, Dana, was wonderful: helpful, attentive and personable. A truly unique experience which will have us back in the near future!
