    Ellie's is beautiful. We dined there because I received a credit for booking the hotel with my Amex card. The food was solid. The hummus was delicious. The service was exceptional. The hotel that it's in is a great place too.

    Our server Jessie was outstanding! She was very knowledgeable and gave us excellent service with a personal touch. The food was very well prepared. I would have preferred a few simply prepared dishes, but then I am a very picky eater. The wines were already well-priced for a restaurant, but then taking half off on Wednesday evenings made for an exceptional value!

    Atmosphere was very cute/good. Live music but not over whelming. Staff was very friendly. However, service was slow (for drinks and food). Food was fine (not great). I had the pork ribeye and lobster friend rice. Pork was slightly over cooked and rice was bland. Value was lacking. Would try again for cocktails at the bar.

    I made a 6pm reservation days ago for the restaurant; we were seated in the Lounge (bar table with bar menu). After waiting 10+ mins, the bartender came over and I politely asked if we were in the lounge or in the restaurant - he quickly said Lounge, but we could have the full menu (table next to us had same concern). We ordered an appetizer and drinks, and said we had 7:30pm theater reservations. Drinks delivered; we had to ask for water and napkins. Ordered 2nd drink and entrees at 6:25pm. Inquired about app at 6:40. He apologized and said the kitchen was backed up - meanwhile, the next bar table seated recently was enjoying their appetizers. We received our app at 6:45pm and asked for the check at 6:50pm, cancelled entrees as we had to go (we were asked if we would still eat them if they arrived soon - no). Manager did comp our drinks, looked me in the eye then continued without stopping as she was going to address another unhappy Lounge table next to us. We were dressed up for the theater (most customers casually dressed), we were polite and willing to spend for good service, but somehow didn't pass muster for even sub-par service. This is why we don't go to hyped-up restaurants. At least we got some Insta-worthy pics while waiting.

    The atmosphere and food were great and walking distance to Winspear is an added plus. The service however was very slow. We had a 5:30 reservation for a 7:30 show and barely made it in time. We waited for a hostess, we waited for water, we waited to order cocktails (which we ordered appetizer at the same time), we were done with cocktails before appetizer came. When we got salads we said, please bring our entrees as soon as possible, we are attending a show but we still waited and waited for entrees. We paid the bill before the entrees came just so that we could scarf our food down and run. I would go back but not when I'm on a time schedule.

    Booked the Jazz Brunch for my mom and me for Mother's Day, sadly the Jazz never started playing prior to us leaving. The flowers for each of us was a nice touch! Our waiter seemed distracted or not well trained. When he asked if we wanted coffee we both said, "no thank you" but left the coffee cup on the table. We both moved our coffee cups to the edge of the table for him to take the next time he came back. We both ordered a mimosa, when my glass was empty he came back and picked up the empty glass but did not inquire whether I wanted another or not. I then asked my mom if she wanted another and at that point we chose to pass. We ordered the bread basket for which we paid $13, not a big deal HOWEVER, I was very confused when it came out COLD, and the donut holes were HARD, I had to use a knife to cut through mine. A complimentary bread basket is what Bread Winners gives and their bread is also cold and not always the freshest, however no one cares b/c it is complimentary. I was very disappointed with our $13 stale donut holes and very cold banana bread. My mom got french toast, it was very, very sweet but that was to be expected from the description, it was also very good! I had the salmon with asparagus, mushrooms and risotto. The salmon was cooked perfectly and I enjoyed it and the mushrooms. The risotto was chewy, as was the asparagus so I didn't eat those. I had been looking forward to dining at Ellie's b/c I LOVE Walt/Hall winery and am a member of their wine club. Unfortunately, Ellie's was a disappointment on this particular occasion. Sadly, from our experience it would be very difficult for me to recommend Ellie's to a friend :-( The valet guys were very organized and efficient, appreciated them!!

    The service was truly the worst I have ever had. We never received more water after the first glass. I was unable to order a second cocktail. Our food took so long that we had to flag down the manager in order to get to our 8pm show across the street at Winspear Opera House. When the food came, we had to eat in literally 7 minutes to make the show time. The food was incredibly mediocre. Nothing good about it. On top of it, the manager seemed to think it was funny that we were agitated, though it was very reasonable. Had we not flagged down MULTIPLE people, we would have had to dine and dash at risk of missing the show. The server for some reason split my order with my sister, though we clearly each ordered our own entree — the same, but our own. Lastly, we even had to ask for the check 4 times. It is such a gorgeous restaurant and I am a huge fan of Hall and Hall wines, I was so disappointed to have such unbelievably terrible service and food.

    Service was better than the last time. Improving. One idea.. is they need a runner to pick up drinks at the bar and take them to the tables. We waited for at least 20 min for our server to bring 2 drinks. Fish was a little over cooked. But everything else was good!

    We went before the musical across the street. It was my 2nd time to visit and both times have been really great. The food is creative and delicious. There are so many lovely places to sit including a lovely outdoor area. I need to remember to go back for HH and also 1/2 price bottles of wine on Wed. I will definitely go back.
