Beef Wellington
Dominick S.

We went here to celebrate a birthday, had the escargot as an app, beef Wellington entree and chocolate soufflé for dessert. All were amazing. The soufflé was one of the best I've had in phoenix. Wellington was perfectly cooked. The only thing I wasn't impressed with was the side of potatoes that I had.

We made reservations for 6. We arrived a few minutes early and the hostess told us we had to wait. The place was empty but we had to wait. Definitely set the tone. We were seated in the private room which at first glance was nice but once we were inside it lacked luster. We were going cloth table cloths or something more elevated for table setting. Next there was a TV on wall which when we asked for the World Series to be broadcast they didn't have it connected. We were wanting an elevated experience and when we saw the TV we figured we would ask. Disappointed since we were inside this room with a TV that didn't work. We asked if we could be moved and our waiter obliged no problem which we absolutely appreciated. We sat across from their beautiful bar. The menu was rather old and on stock paper that was wrinkled. Really weird because the elevation was not there. My husband and a few others ordered the old fashioned. It was ok. My friend ordered a martini and upon her first drink she noticed there was a smudge on the bottom of the glass perhaps got dirty when drink was prepared. I ordered Diet Coke and I got a glass with ice along with a can of coke. Again disappointed there was no elevation of presentation of drinks. The wine menu was in a folder which was missing a ring and while this is a small detail it just didn't sit well with us. I ordered escargot. They were swimming in a pesto sauce. No flavor other than the pesto. My husband ordered rib eye he said it had good flavor. Another person ordered halibut and they were happy. Another person ordered the pork chops and they said they were good. My friend and I opted for the wagu hamburger. Presentation was good they put salt and pepper on board with your chosen side. My burger had to be sent back because the meat was not cooked as requested but it was fixed and resolved. Brussel sprouts were not crispy but rather more oily. Just a matter of preference. Potato's grated were also ordered and they were good. Duck fat potatoes were excellent. The sauces for steaks were tasty. Our waiter was very pleasant and he really did a nice job trying to make sure we had what we needed. I think all and all our party was happy but I think they need to elevate certain aspects to match the vibe they are going for.

Ahhhh we had the most delicious dinner Saturday night. There is not a better pear martini on the planet. Ours steaks were perfect, Onion soup was amazing. Brussels sprouts and cheesy potatoes.... But the star was the wine they helped us select, service was good, and we actually got to sit in a coveted booth!! It was all just lovely.

Great place for gatherings or a date night! Heard great things about this place so wanted to try it out. Happy hour menu has food and drink deals! We got the Escargots Facon Fabrice and Wild Mushroom Tartine off the HH menu. The escargot was very flavorful and I would get it again. The wild mushroom tartine was good with the greens and mushroom but it was a bit more oily than I would have liked. Wagyu Bacon Brie Burger was a good portion. The burger came out perfectly. My favorite was the Pan Seared Atlantic Salmon! The salmon was perfectly cooked and soft on the inside with a crispy skin. The crispy polenta was great with the sauce. Overall the flavors were so good all in one dish. I highly recommend this! Service was great and they were very attentive throughout our dining experience.

So delicious! We always enjoy dinner here. Everything was exceptional. My favorite was the mussels!

Elegant wine bistro in south Chandler, with HH deals. Great place to catch up with friends. The order: escargot, wild mushroom tartine, wagyu Brie burger, San seared Atlantic salmon The good: HH deals if you come before 6 and get seated at the bar or high top. Portions are descent and some dishes come with a side. It's fairly quiet, so you don't need to speak over the music. Not busy during the weekday evenings The bad: -not sure why we need to sit at the bar for HH, when 90% of the restaurant is empty. -Feels weird, when your party is a quarter of the restaurant population.

Dinner here for husband's birthday was fantastic! Loved everything about it! The staff, the food and the vibe, was wonderful! We shall return to check out their happy hour for sure, and I suggest you do the same.

I started my diet this week and wanted a healthy salad with salmon for dinner. So I did a quick Yelp search for places nearby my house. This place popped up and I hadn't been here in years. Decided to give it a try again. This place has an amazing wine selection. Since I was by myself I ordered the happy hour glass of wine at $10 per glass. Figured it would be a solid selection but ended up being an Italian wine that could be had for $9.99 a bottle. My advice is to skip the happy hour as it's not worth it. I ordered the grilled salmon salad and it was delicious. I would definitely order that again. Overall I had a good experience but was a little disappointed with the happy hour wine price. 5X markup is a bit much.

Came here for our 5 year wedding anniversary and it was everything I wanted! Not to mention my wonderful husband surprised me with a beautiful bouquet of flowers packaged up on the table when we arrived! We ordered the muscles and the sauce was yellow curry and it was one of the best things I've ever had. I ordered the halibut and carrots and it was to die for!! Would go back and order it 100 times over. Highly recommend

Escargot-not bad but not great! I've have had better. It was gritty and a bit bitter.

I have been wanting to try this place for sometime. The ambience is really nice. It's a gorgeous restaurant even though the outside wouldn't tell you that. But once you come inside, it's nicely decorated and the ambience is great. I sat at the bar this time and I got there in time for happy hour. I have been wanting some escargot for at least the past six or seven months. I ordered the escargot and I was a little disappointed. It was a beautiful presentation, but the first escargot I had I tasted some sand or grit on my first bite. It was as though they weren't cleaned properly. The taste was actually bitter because it was so much garlic. Now I love garlic, but it seemed as though that it was a little excessive. I could be wrong, but it was a little pungent. I added a little salt to it and that seemed to bring out a better flavor. Would I order it again? I don't think so. I've had better go at other places. Next, I ordered a salad with salmon. I had to return it because the fish smelled very fishy! I mean you shouldn't be able to smell a fishy smell like that. I don't know if the fish was bad, but I'm assuming it was and I was afraid to eat it! They promptly asked me if I wanted to order something else and I did! That was good customer service so I did appreciate that. But I can't get over the fact that I think I was served bad fish because when I tell you this fish smelled fishy, it was smelly! The muscles were cooked in a curry sauce and I found that to be very delightful! I did enjoy that. The customer service was good. The escargot was meh, the salmon salad was not good, and the muscles were tasty. Would I give this another try? I'm not sure, but I know I really wanted to like this place. I probably will give it another try but I definitely won't be ordering the salmon!!!

This is salmon with zucchini, polenta, and lemon.

So cute! They also have two outdoor patios with couches and tables. We ordered a couple of cocktails off the Christmas menu. I order the "Clark's Nipply Egg Nog" and my son ordered the "It's a Good Old Fashioned Family Christmas." I didn't try his because I do not like bourbon but he reports it was very good. And I did love my eggnog drink. For food, my son ordered off of The Omelette bar. You fill out the little form check mark in exactly what you want in your omelette and what you want for the side. I ordered the chopped salad, which is what I've ordered here before and absolutely love. It comes with chopped salami and cheese which make it absolutely yummy. We arrived early by the time you left the place was starting to fill up. I'll continue to come here because I just love that chopped salad, but I think everything that we've had here has been delicious.

We had bacon dates to start. These were tasty but not quite like we imagined. They were sweet and salty which was great. The blue cheese stuffing didn't quite jump out like we expected. For wine, my wife likes sweet wine. She tried the Riesling first, then the Moscato. Moscato was hands down her winner, it was sweeter. For me, I tried the Murphy Goode red blend and I enjoyed it a lot. Good balance, complexity, and smoothness. For the main course my wife had the Pasta Bolognese. It came with rigatoni noodles. The sauce was nice and thick and coated the noodles really well. It had a big robust flavor but wasn't overpowering. I had the Chicken Saltimbocca. The sauce was a bit on the sweet side for my preference due to what tasted like a bit of balsamic, but I still enjoyed it. The chicken was well cooked and tender. We tried a cannoli for dessert. The thing was huge! Shell was thick and crunchy. Filling was moderately sweet with a subtle brightness to it (like a touch of lemon). Ends were dipped in chopped pistachio.

My favorite, though, was surprisingly the Espresso Martini. Since they don't serve liquor, I was a little skeptical when the bartender recommended it. I believe it's made with some type of cider, but somehow it really does taste like an espresso martini, topped with cinnamon and spice. So good! The bartender was really nice, and I loved their "Employee of the Year" display featuring the dog. Clearly good people! My only complaints were the limited parking and, unfortunately, the smell inside. It was pretty musty, and that was really the only reason I couldn't stay for more than one drink. Otherwise, it's a fun, casual neighborhood spot that I'd definitely come back to -- especially for another one of those espresso martinis!

We told our waiter Mitchell why we were out for the evening and told us he would course our meals out appropriately so we wouldn't feel rushed. He gave us a great overview of the menu and did not steer us astray. We ordered the PEI mussels, Caesar salad to split, French onion soup, filets and a side of mash potatoes. Nothing disappointed, it was all phenomenal. Per Mitchell's suggestion, we got carrot cake for dessert and none of it was wasted. Half way through our meal live piano started and it set a wonderful ambiance. This place doesn't feel like you are in downtown Chandler.

Built inside the historic Rowena Theatre, Elliott's is a beautiful space with a seriously impressive 40-foot bar. Add live piano music, and suddenly dinner feels a little fancy. We started with salads: I had the Burrata Salad with arugula spring mix, blackberries, strawberries, fig balsamic, and pink peppercorn. My husband had the House Salad, and our friend had the Caesar. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Then came the serious business. My husband ordered the 6 oz filet, I had the pork chop, and our friend went with the Director's Cut Sonoran-Style NY Strip, not spicy. Every single entrée was fantastic. The quality of the meat was obvious...tender, perfectly cooked, and packed with flavor. This is the kind of food where you take a bite and immediately stop talking because you're too busy enjoying it. We also shared the truffle mac & cheese and grilled asparagus. The mac & cheese was rich, creamy, and loaded with truffle flavor. It was the kind of side dish that starts out as "let's share" and somehow becomes "I don't remember agreeing to share this." The asparagus was delicious too, so at least we can say we ate vegetables. Everything about the meal was outstanding...the quality of the ingredients, the presentation, the flavors, and the atmosphere. And with the live piano playing in the background, it made the whole evening feel special without being stuffy. Elliott's is definitely a place where you go for dinner and leave wondering if you should have ordered dessert...even though you are already completely full. Great food, beautiful setting, live music, fantastic service, and a 40-foot bar. Our guest got a memorable night out, and we got to discover another favorite place.
