The Elm Tree

I've always loved the food and the service. Enjoy it every time! Good for couples and small groups. Definitely will come again.

Always enjoy my visit. The table right next to the front door is not optimal. Service and food made up for this

Great food, excellent service. Very generous servings. A little close to other diners, distracted by their conversations. The restaurant quiet so could have been more space between.
Would go back and will recommend!

A perfect evening.

This place never disappoints. Delicious, healthy and creative food and always friendly service.

The Elm Tree is absolutely fantastic! We were so thrilled with the food, the service, and the overall dining experience, we went back for a second night. It's centrally located on a side street so it's quiet and the outdoor cafe area is perfect on a summer night. Every dish we ordered was amazing, an exquisite blend of spices and flavors. If you're looking for a memorable evening out, we highly recommend this hidden gem.

The servers were incredibly attentive without being overbearing. The food was excellent and it arrived quickly after being ordered. The beer/wine list had a little bit of everything and finally, the value for the meals (we shared the fig and ricotta salad as well as the Brussels sprouts, with the octopus and lamb as our mains) is not found in many places around the city. Can’t wait to return!

Very good food...loved the charred octopus. With it's ambiance, excellent service and very good food what could we complain about? The whole experience was rushed. We arrived with a reservation and were seated with menus. Within seconds we were asked if we wanted to order. I ordered the wine. As soon as it arrived we were asked if we would order our food. I ordered 2 appetizers., my companion one. They arrived within minutes. Most people will tell the restaurant if they are in a hurry to get someplace else. We weren't. We ended up going to another restaurant after we left to have a relaxing cognac and coffee.

Had a great time with my girl friends, food was excellent and service was great! 🥰

Food not Mediterranean at all. Server was rude and overall was a very disappointing experience.

Octopus was fabulous!

Food in the Elm Tree is divine. We had eight different dishes, and all were exceptional. Their Chef is excellent, plate display work of art and selection of wines respectful.

Very good experience. Food was great and service friendly.

Service not attentive. Wine was served only after reminder. Mains followed immediately after starters... last bite of salad still on plate! Not acceptable for such a high-ranking restaurant! Food was of mixed quality. Duck Confit leg too dry! Lamb was okay, but mashed purée was cold!

Great resto!!! Second time here ... highly recommend.. good food and and heat ambiance

Food was excellent, service very good indeed and we really enjoyed our meal

We were surprised, such an amazing place for family dinner or a date. Definitely come back

This is such an amazing restaurant for so many reasons. The food is fantastic, the servers are friendly and attentive, and the space is quiet and comfortable but still lively. I have been here on multiple occasions and the quality and value are incomparable in the downtown core. We ordered the brussel sprouts, fried cauliflower, charred eggplant, grilled octopus, and cured salmon to start. I had the lamb chops which was a huge portion and full of amazing fresh flavours! My friends had the green pea risotto and the burger and everyone was very very happy. We shared the Malabi, rose water ice cream, and pistachio mascarpone for dessert and all three were so delicious and the perfect end to our meal!! Can’t recommend this place enough!

Unfortunately with our large group we were pretty loud so those around us might have rated this restaurant rated it lower. Sorry but we had a great time.

Appetizers were great! Lamb shank dinner ok. Service excellent.

I really enjoyed my visit at the Elm Tree. My Salad was delicious and fresh. Service was excellent and discreet. I was there on a blind date.

Pleasant atmosphere. Very much liked the appetizers. Main courses were interesting but lacking just a bit of flavour.

Delicious!!! Wonderful service!!! Going back again next week!

Perfect. The blend of flavours is amazing. This is a go to that will please everyone.

Highly recommended. Fantastic menu. Best Kohlrabi salad ever! Both fish dishes were excellent. Menu has something for everybody.

Delicious food, attentive servers, quiet environment. Highly recommend.

Food was good (not good enough to recommend) and overpriced for the serving size. Limited menu selections. The salads offered were unique but pricey.
Best thing about the restaurant was that it was a decent restaurant near the Chelsea Hotel where one patron was staying.

Food was delicious.
Generous portion sizes and excellent service.
Will definitely come back again!

Great experience. We had 2 starters and a main. All good except the octopus was over cooked. I would come back.

Wonderful restaurant, high-quality dishes that were unique. Would recommend to anyone

Excellent food and wine choices, we were able to access a wine no longer on the wine list but there were extra bottles!

Exceptional Service, delicious food, and well priced items! Could not have asked for a better dinner.

We went as a group of eight to celebrate a special friend's birthday. It was a great choice for our event! The service was fantastic and we had a great night. Table favourites were the appetizers we shared as a starter: the Brussel sprouts, figs and ricotta, octopus and eggplant were fabulous. I would definitely go back and would consider a tapas-style meal of only appetizers, they were so delicious!

Wonderful fusion of flavors. We tried nearly every app & found them exquisitely prepared and EXTREMELY rewarding. Our waiter Kanin was engaging, funny and very helpful. I wish I didn't have to travel 450 miles to eat there!

Good food. Poor service. The restaurant closes at 11. But the staff showed an attitude that they wanted customers to leave at 10.

We had an amazing dinner - they were able to accommodate my allergy to garlic very well. We will be back!

Attentive staff who understand good service and are knowledgeable about the menu. Food was outstanding and fresh!
Will definitely visit again.

Always great food amd service

I have zero complaints about this restaurant! What a fabulous experience - exceeded my expectations.

We were about 20 mins late for our reservation and no questions asked. Servers were all friendly and prompt. The food was absolutely incredible as were the drinks. I had a cocktail and my date had one of their beers. Selection and quality 10/10. The temperature, the ambiance, the noise level - all perfect. It was cozy, relaxed, modern, not stuffy but very classy and high quality. I have already recommended it to friends and will most definitely be back!

I wasn't expecting the food to be so delicious. One of the best quality meals I've enjoyed. Simple and fresh. I had the grilled eggplant with pomegranate seeds and the seared scallops. My friends said their meals were also wonderful. Grilled octopus, salmon, fish, snow pea risotto, lamb shank.
