Nice interior, modern spartan chic. I know it's an Asian wine bar but for such a high class restaurant it should have a better craft beer selection. The cocktail list looks good and the one ordered was well made. The server and service was excellent. She knows her stuff. The spring rolls were good but nothing special. The blue crab sashimi came without tobiko but it was corrected immediately when brought to the server's attention. The pickled ginger and wasabi made it. We gave our server several options and her recommendation of the curry was very flavorful and helped by the spicy sriracha ketchup provided when we asked for more spice. Overall a good meal but I was expecting more from an upscale restaurant. Others have food just as tasty for less. The great service though is the saving grace. read more

Perfect restaurant if your group includes both sushi lovers and haters. For main course,I ordered from the sushi bar; my husband ordered from the other selections. We both ordered the small beet salad for a starter, and it was perfect. I ordered mine with the dressing only on the side, and I believe my husband ordered it with the dressing already in the salad. For main course, I ordered a plate of salmon nigiri, which I've eaten in countless restaurants. The nigiri was extremely fresh, as I expected; the ginger and wasabi were the best I've had anywhere; but what surprised and delighted me is the way the chef decorated the plate with herbs that were delicious, unexpected and complemented the nigiri perfectly. I enjoyed a glass of Fonseca Bin 27 port for dessert, along with the most delicious sorbet sampler: peach, coconut and strawberry/banana flavors. I felt lucky to get a padded chair at our table for 2, but I noticed that many other guests did not sit on padded chairs. The restaurant can be a bit noisy, since the beautiful decor consists of mostly hard surfaces. Do notice the interesting artwork. Our server was excellent, one of the best, although she presented us with the wrong table's check. read more

Took Dad here for a belated 80th bday celebration. Very sharp decor and ambience. For drinks Dad had a martini and I had a Drambouie. Drinks were liberal w the alc and totally on point. For starter dishes we did two small plates. Ahi tuna tartare rolls w nice flavor complements of fresh fish and spicy mayo sauce. Lamb & wagyu meatballs w feta and tomato based flavorings were tender. Delicious. For the main entree we got the chicken thai en croute which Dad described as amongst the best chix preparation he has had ever had. Shout out to our server Raymond for exceptional service. read more

Stopped by just for wine and dessert. Got the skillet cookie which was smaller than expected but super delicious. Takes 20 minutes to come out so keep that in mind. But when it does finally come out it is ooey gooey and warm in the middle and nice and crispy on the outer edges. Along w the cold vanilla ice cream, each bite hits the spot. It was a little raw in the middle.. Not sure if it was intentional but luckily my friend likes raw cookie dough.. (I don't). I actually like the outside loungey area better than the inside dining area! Nice and casual versus the inside which is definitely more formal and date atmosphere. One less star this time just because of the raw cookie dough and the server kept rushing us with ordering and the check. But I still love this place! read more

My wonderful fiance and I hit up Elements after having our engagement pictures taken last week. We love this place! You could call us "semi-regulars" - we try to make it out a few times a year. Moving on to the food: my wonderful fiance ordered the Pad Thai and I had the Walnut Shrimp. I'll start with my entree. It was great! It's like the walnut shrimp from Panda Express but 1000 times better. My wonderful fiance had mixed feelings about her dish. It just left something to be desired. All of the ingredients were fresh and tasty but you could probably find better pad thai somewhere else in the triangle. Still, we love this place and recommend that you check it out! read more

This was my first time here but with a couple who was familiar. Food- Beautiful presentation of food. Calamari and the hidden salad gem on the bottom were delicious. Fish for sushi seemed to border on not being fresh - you do get hit with the fish aroma when walking in to the establishment, and the sashimi salmon and tuna tasted slightly more fishy than it should. Pork was delicious. Service was absolutely horrible and not attentive, the couple we were with commented that it was the worst but giving the benefit that they usually sit at the bar. We waited a long time before we could order our pre dinner / menu looking drinks, we had to ask what the dinner specials were when asked what we wanted to order as it wasn't presented and post ordering our apps. Apps came fairly quickly and the pics speak to the presentation. Entrees came nearly 15 mins after our appetizers were clearly finished with silver placed on plates to indicate as such. We also had to wait for water refills and to reorder drinks. Lastly, one the checks was overcharged - and when the server came back she indicated that the justification of the extra ~$20 roll charge was because of the substitution on the cut of fish for one of original rolls, but because the couple were regulars it was removed. This is where service won some points as mgt or staff knew/recognized the couple without us saying anything. But in the end - we still didn't understand why they charged for a full roll + the originial roll ordered instead of a upcharge on the original roll. We didn't order complicated beverages - vodka sodas, but those were on point. Overall the ambiance allowed us to catch up socially, Apps were the best course, I should have ordered a main dish as oppose to sushi, and waitstaff needs a bit more coaching on food service. read more

I have been to Elements many times over the years and the food and service are consistently outstanding. I dropped by tonight and had the Colorado Snapper special and the chef knocked it out of the park. I'm not sure how you take outstanding up a notch but Elements did that tonight. Highly recommend. read more

This is my family's all time favorite restaurants. They have been in chapel hill for 4 generations and every time I come into town we eat here. Everyone is so nice and the food is beyond amazing. Pre Covid there was a wine bar where you could go up a press a button and select from wines featured on the wall. When they have a sushi chef the sushi is amazing. My family also loves the walnut prawns. Pad Thai good as well! read more

Classy restaurant, fantastic service, and amazing food--Elements has it all! I was blown away by the walnut shrimp entree that I got, the sauce was truly incredibly. I also loved that it came with a salad to start with, which was also super tasty with a sesame-ginger dressing. My partner got the red curry chicken and I tried it and it was also great. I would definitely recommend this place to others, but unless your trying to spend a fortune, go for lunch when the meals are much more reasonably priced. read more

I had a lovely dinner here and would definitely recommend Elements to anyone looking for great sushi! We ordered the chefs sashimi sampler, the mango salmon roll, the Diablo shrimp roll, and the tuna 3 ways roll. The mango salmon was definitely my favorite. I was really impressed by how fresh and high quality their fish was. read more

Wonderful place for a date or a casual drink and first-class meal. My girlfriend and I love sitting at the bar if I am hanging out, because it allows optimal opportunity to converse with the chef on rare moments he has down time. Generally the women that bar-tend are one of his daughters and they're very congenial and insightful. Make a reservation to ensure seating! The specials are always good meals! Get them if you're feeling special, or on a special date. read more

Mediocre food on a very limited menu, only 1 vegetarian entree. No longer serves sushi.

Went here on date night early on a Saturday and had a wonderful dinner. The menu apparently changes many items weekly, so if you scour reviews to see what to order (like I did), it may be of limited usefulness. But the changing menu does add extra incentive for repeat visits to try new creations. We ordered: * Hanôi Calamari * Beet Salad * Pork Dumplings * Vegetarian Viet Rolls * Spicy "Tail of Two Tunas" * Sorbet trio for dessert Everything was plated wonderfully and was delicious, there was nothing we did not enjoy and nothing we would not order again. It was fresh, delicious food and we will be back as fast as we can. Special shoutout to the pineapple sorbet in the sorbet trio and our awesome server Vi. She was friendly, incredibly helpful and attentive. The restaurant is definitely expensive but completely worth it in my opinion. read more

What a shock to pay those prices (entrees generally $30-$40, with the black cid special at $42) and find the food mediocre at best. The prawns were pretty much tasteless, and the black cod oversalted. It is disappointing that a restaurant heralded as one of the best in Chapel Hill can't do better. I won't go back. read more

Elements always delivers....great service, great food, lovely experience! Tonight was no exception. I had a luscious, juicy watermelon starter...followed by the vegetarian Saigon noodles and the sorbet sampler. My entree was huge and filled with lots of fresh veggies, sprouts and fried tofu and a delicious sauce. The sorbet was actually three scoops and fresh berries: peach, pina colada and strawberry. The peach was my favorite and came with a nice dab of raspberry sauce. My companion had pork belly tacos (there were two chock full of crispy pork belly and veggies), and the Catch of the Day special...Farone Island salmon which she said was delicious. She had the trifle for dessert and declared it delectable as she polished it off! Can't wait to go back! read more

The service was quick and friendly. The atmosphere is a little bland and also divided (there are two wings in the restaurants) but it was still nice. I had the Walnut Prawns. They were delicious! My girlfriend had the Tuna 3 Ways Roll - she enjoyed it but it definitely wasn't the best sushi she's had in the area. Would recommend for a nice quiet dinner. read more

Really enjoyed this place! I met my friend here for a quick weeknight dinner and we sat at the bar. The atmosphere is 'modern chic Asian'. She had sushi (which she loved) and I had the calamari and the bread basket on the small plates menu. Both were very tasting! The bread basket came with a variety of breads and my favorite was the fried Chinese buns which I slathered in the whipped butter that was included in the basket. More please! If you read my other reviews, I seem to have an affinity for Asian restaurants and have reviewed many of them. I don't know, maybe I am trying to channel my inner Asian princess? read more

Had a lovely meal here last night. Our friendly neighbors at the table next to us, who have been coming to Elements for years, recommended pretty much everything on the menu. Boyfriend and I got the crispy spring rolls (Cha Giò Tôm Cua), Hanôi calamari, Polynesian sushi roll, and the lamb chops with Vietnamese BBQ sauce. For drinks, boyfriend had the Dark & Stormy and I had the Elementini. The crispy spring rolls had a million delicious ingredients: shrimp, crabmeat, ground pork, mushrooms, carrots, cucumber, and more. I am usually not a huge fan of spring rolls in general, but boyfriend really wanted them. I was pleasantly surprised. The spring rolls were crispy enough but not too crispy and all the ingredients just worked really well together. The calamari was amazing, especially with the garlic aioli, which is honestly probably the best garlic aioli I've ever had. The Polynesian roll: crispy shrimp, cucumber, spicy tuna tartare, mango sauce, and coconut flakes. (We got the mango sauce on the side and enjoyed the roll without any of the sauce.) Loved this roll! The spicy tuna was just amazing and the coconut flakes were an interesting addition. The lamb chops I did not love as much as the other three, but I still mostly enjoyed it. I think it was the sauce that I wasn't a fan of, but the lamb itself was great and cooked with just the right amount of pink. Also loved the complimentary hot edamame before the meal. They were delicious, did not take up much room in my stomach, and made me ready and excited for the food to come. We didn't get any bread, which many/most other Yelp reviewers did. (Not sure if it was an accident or if they weren't serving bread yesterday.) But that's fine; sometimes bread fills you up too much before a meal, so this edamame alone was smart and novel. Real flowers on the table too, which is always appreciated. Taste | 4.5-5 Atmosphere | 4 Presentation | 4 Service | 4 OVERALL | 5 read more

I was in the area for business and wanted a place close by for some good Asian fusion food. What a gem! This place is great. The decor is modern and chic. The staff is friendly and prompt. And the food is wonderful! The menu is truly a fusion of Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese food. We all decided to have the seafood pad Thai. It was fantastic! Tons of yummy seafood, all cooked perfectly. Too bad I don't live near here! read more

Dinner last night at Elements was excellent. The four of us had a good assortment of menu items, including wings, tempura asparagus, pad Thai, soup, and of course the walnut prawns. The wine list was outstanding, with a very broad selection of varieties and regions, and prices that are quite reasonable. The place was tolerably loud when the room was full. The only shortcoming was the inexperienced server, who seemed to be overwhelmed by the crowd. The dining room was new, attractive stark Asian, and in tune with the restaurant's inspiration, the four classic Greek elements of earth, wind, fire, and water. We will definitely return when we're back in Chapel Hill. read more

I've been here several times now, and it's time to upgrade these folks to five stars. Each time I go, the food seems to be even better than the last. They rotate dishes pretty frequently, but at Christmas time they home-runned it with a sensational cashew steak with a rich brown sauce. Amazing! I've also had wonderful seafood stew dishes and an amazing Polynesian roll. The menu isn't overwhelmingly large, but they seem to have found that balance with having enough variety but not causing analysis paralysis from too many options. Service is always primo and the space is very attractive. It's equally great for a Friday evening stop-by after work or a special occasion celebration. Highly recommended and right up there with Lantern on my Best-of-Chapel-Hill list. read more

Are here last night & this place has great atmosphere, food, drinks & staff. High-end Asian cuisine. Had the fish of the day & coconut cake & both were excellent. The fish & veggies were cooked to perfection & had a great sauce on the side. The cocktail & wine list is superb as well. Will be back. Just up the stairs if you're staying next door at the Aloft by Marriott. read more

Love this spot for a contemporary take on Vietnamese cuisine. My favorite is their tempura shrimp with a side of white rice. It's so crispy, with a tangy and savory sauce. They have a beautiful wine selection as well and their cocktails are superb. Their menu changes every now and again and the new additions are always amazing. The atmosphere is intimate and it's a great date night spot. The service is always impeccable and the wait staff is so friendly! read more

The first meal I had at An five years ago continues to be one of the most memorable I've had in the Triangle. Yes... I was noshing on pork belly before it was au courant. So when I heard that the chef was leaving Cary for Chapel Hill and starting a new restaurant, I've been chomping at the bit to get my chompers on a few menu items. The hubby and I headed here last weekend for an indulgent evening. We made the decision on Tuesday, but OpenTable showed that they were fully booked for Friday. I called on Wednesday and the hostess I spoke to was able to squeeze us in for an early-in-the-evening table, which worked perfectly. We arrived at 6pm, and the dining room was still flooded with light, which highlighted the surroundings. There's an outdoor patio and an indoor dining room with cushy seating. The restaurant quickly filled up. The clientele trended older, and dressier (so get a little gussied up!). Our server acquainted us with the chef's culinary background and the restaurant concept. They try to source everything within 100 miles and specialize in Asian and French techniques. Of course, of course. But how is the food? Awesome. We started with a special app -- tuna three ways. Perfect for a tuna fanatic like myself. The sashimi was remarkably supple, and really outshone what I've been eating at regular sushi restaurants lately. The seared encrusted tuna was nice. And the tartare was full of flavor. We also shared an order of cha gio. There are 4 rolls, and they are perfection. They brought back the distinct memory of eating egg rolls in the kitchen of a Vietnamese friend's from childhood house. My mother is Vietnamese, and I love her cooking. But neither of us has been able to exactly recreate the flavor of those rolls. The wrappers they use make a distinct difference in texture. Perhaps white pepper spikes the filling? I can only guess. And repeatedly order. For my entree, I chose the duck two ways, which highlights the chef's skill-set. This was way more food than I anticipated, and I couldn't finish it. (But hubby happily did.) The plate consists of a small pod of jasmine rice accompanying Peking duck in a whiskey-hoisin sauce (tender meat with great smoke flavor and a well-balanced sauce made this my favorite) and duck a l'orange (duck medallions in a sweet marinade encircling a tangy kraut). We split a bottle of wine. But after all that food and beverage, unfortunately couldn't muster up the appetite to order dessert (or the fine-looking cheese plate). As I'd hoped, this will be another meal bound to stick in my mind... although, I hope to return soon so I don't have to exclusively rely on memory! read more

Wow absolutely amazing. Elements has been on the top of my list for quite some time now. I'm so glad I finally had the opportunity to stop in. I believe this is the original chef from An in Cary and the food is superb. There were so many amazing dishes on the menu plus they added a sashimi menu. You can order all types of small plates, or entrees. I have never seen such a happy staff in a restaurant, everyone here was so friendly walking around with big smiles on their faces. The restaurant itself seems very family oriented (as far as the staff) and you could tell that their dining patrons consisted of many regulars. I was expecting his extremely fancy atmosphere but what I walked into was a very inviting space with a casual bar, and the most amazing wine room I've seen in the Triangle. I am already planning a girls night out here! The wine room is separate from the restaurant and tucked away in it's own space. The best part you can purchase a wine card and taste their amazing selection of wines. Now I've seen these wine machines before but never with this type of selection at least here in the Triangle area. I love that they offer this in a restaurant, how smart! If the restaurant was on a wait I would be in the wine room all night happy as a clam until I was seated:) Let's get to the incredible food. My BF and I started off with the Escolar sashimi and curry clam chowder. All I can say is wow the flavors were so amazing, the soup had a bit of spice to it and was creamy and delicious not to mention full of clams. The sashimi was some of the freshest I've ever had and they are super generous with their portions I wanted the whole Escolar, seriously. We decided to share the seafood pad thai as our entree. To be honest I'm not a huge pad thai fan but this dish I couldn't resist. A huge plate of pad thai was delivered the perfect noodles topped with egg, shrimp, calamari, and white fish OMG I wish I didn't eat it all so I had leftovers. I was so stuffed and satisfied after this meal. This was by far one of the best meals I've had in 2015. I'm already planning my next trip back here. read more

Came here for lunch today and this place is truly a treat! The restaurant is quite spacious (it's a lot bigger than it looks from the outside!). Right when you enter, there's this lovely wine bar that leads you in to the greater dining area. Ambience is very warm and there's a lot of natural lighting complemented with really nice pieces of modern, metallic decor. I had the Big Eye Tuna Sashimi for a starter, the Honey Walnut Prawns as a main, and I spoiled myself a bit with the Apple Crisp for dessert. Sashimi was honestly the best I've had in a long time. I love that all the fish is locally sourced and you can taste how fresh it is. Also, the presentation of the dish is stunning. Honey walnut prawns were fantastic. There were four of them served on little beds of this amazing salad. There was also a side salad that was served, which was alright, although they could have used a bit more dressing, I think (note: I'm someone who orders "dressing with a side of salad"). Finally, the dessert, which was this Apple Crisp a la mode, was AMAZING. Probably one of the best desserts I've had in a while. The apple crisp part was piping hot, so it made for a wonderful complement to the ice cream. Really fantastic dessert and really cute presentation. Had a wonderful time here and it wasn't too busy for lunch. Service was very nice as well. Would love to come here for dinner sometime! read more

What are the elements that make a great restaurant... atmosphere, service, quality food, preparation and presentation of the food, continuing excellence. I guess that is why this place is named Elements (maybe not) as all the above is checked when you enter and dine at this exceptional restaurant. I first dinned here in August of 2015 (when looking for a place for my son to live) and this was my 3rd or 4th time here. Each time a wonderful dinning adventure. Each time I have dinned at Elements I have been pleasantly surprised by the creativity of the chef with his food. This time my selection of lobster and noodles (vermicelli) was a delight with each bite. My son so enjoyed his pork chop with meatballs, and we both enjoyed the mussels and spring roll apps. My wife had a vegetarian dish that she also enjoyed. For sure we will be back at Elements the next time we come to Chapel HIll. read more

So my husband had made the reservation. He was trying to find "the new sushi place we just read about". Clearly it wasn't Element and we realized this when we got to the restaurant. We were there so why not. So glad we made this error. I loved it. Had the poke bowl (new on menu). It was so delicious. So many great flavors. Great attentive professional staff. It was a win for us. read more

I may move to Chapel Hill for the sole reason of eating here every day for the rest of my life. Setting: Good for solo diners (like me), also good for groups. Great ambience. Service: Drea was wonderful with suggestions to enhance my meal. She also made sure my water glass was never empty - which is so important for me! Food: This was the best meal that I've had in a very long time. Now, I'm particular to Asian food so this place was right up my alley. I ordered a couple of glasses of wine, which were excellent (and generous pours). The Vietnamese Seafood Hotpot, though, was my highlight. Rice noodles, pineapple, cilantro, calamari, mussels, shrimp, and some white fish (normally comes with salmon but I'm allergic)... seriously to die for. I'm going to dream about it tonight. Ended my meal with an espresso shot (with a lemon twist which is my favorite thing ever) and the espresso creme brûlée. If I died tonight, I'd die happy. Five stars. Moving to Chapel Hill. Sorry friends & family in Iowa. This place rocks too much. read more

Simply put, this is one of the top restaurants in Chapel Hill! I went there for the first time, on a whim, and wow was my sushi some of the best I have ever had. Finding a safe place to eat out during the pandemic is always a challenge, and Elements has risen to the occasion in safe practices, by checking temperatures upon our arrival, wearing masks and spraying down surfaces, as well as the safe distancing of our fellow on the evening of my visit which was November 14. The sushi chef appears to me to be classically trained, and he puts out some of the best sushi and sashimi I have had the pleasure of enjoying. I had the toro special, which consisted of carpaccio, sashimi, and sushi, and it was a work of art, both in presentation and deliciousness. The chef has the blending of flavor profiles down. I also had the seaweed salad, and a spicy tuna roll, which were equally delicious. I had two diners joining me, and they were equally pleased with their choices of sushi rolls, which consisted of the oyster mushroom rolls and the shrimp tempura rolls. The bread basket was a great way to start, by the way! I will definitely be going back on my next visit to Chapel Hill. I live in SE Florida, so I have a very good idea of what fresh fish should taste like, and Elements has the freshest and tastiest sushi around! read more

We were first introduced to Elements at the Grand Taste of Durham. Their walnut prawn was our favorite dish and after looking their menu over and talking with the chefs at the event we had to experience the restaurant. Needless to say, we were not disappointed. Upon entering the space you feel like you are at a posh hotel more than a restaurant. The angles, edges, and flow are just warm and inviting. They also have a dedicated wine bar with a self serving set of spouts set to 2, 4, 6 oz pours depending on your intentions. This makes it even more tempting to return to have some of their small plates and wine versus a full size meal. However, our meal far surpassed our expectations. My wife had the hot pot and I had the seafood pad thai. While they were not what I would consider "traditional" interpretations of the dishes, they brought elements (see what I did there) that elevated the dish and made sense versus trying to be edgy and forcing a particular view. The Pad Thai featured some notes of tomato and red curry versus the traditional prep I received in the dedicated thai restaurants. That said, both of the dishes hit the right balance of traditional and adventurous without making the diner think "this is not the dish I ordered" which takes a deft hand. They offer a superb selection of drinks to accompany the menu as well; from sake you probably have not yet tasted to a full wine list selection featuring both bargain and pricey options. They also have a cocktail list that has Asian and local favorites for those who do not enjoy wine (rice or grape based). Elements surprised me in a number of ways. First, it has supplanted many of the other fusion restaurants on my list to take the top spot from a few that are more pricey. Second, it has a strange elegance to it and the service is superb. The space feels clean, makes you feel exclusive, and flows fluidly. It is a strange balance that few places have, so you should experience it for yourself. read more

Love Love Love - Did I say I LOVE this place? While on business in the Triangle weekly for a year I discovered some amazing places to eat and this place is on the Top of the list for my Top5 that I travel all the way to the Triangle to take my family to experience. The summer roll is awesome and the walnut shrimp. However WHOLLY WHOLE FISH, if you are ever told about the specials and it includes a whole fish TAKE IT. I was skeptical when told about the fish because I saw so many things on the menu that I wanted to try however the BEST decision I made was trying the fish and when I say it was the BEST fish I've had prepared on that manner I mean it (picture attached). The service is pretty stellar depending on the server and you know my reviews are overall from the Rutta to the Tudda so I review with overall experience. I had an amazing server when I came with my colleagues however when I came alone my server was distant and not very interested in serving me which is why this place lost a star. Definitely check this place out its amazing and tucked away. read more

Ambiance. I'm from New York and when I walked in, I thought I was IN New York. Seating. Far enough apart so I don't have to listen to the conversation at Table 2. Service. The staff is attentive, helpful, and knows when to stop at the table. Rachel **** Food. On a scale of one to ten, its a 9 (no place is a 10). I grew up in the restaurant business so its only fair to give a good, honest nod to those who do their best...and Elements is on top. Presentation. Just look at the photos. I was given a teapot for my tea (and the Earl Grey gets a nod all to itself). I'm almost afraid to post this critique. I want to be able to come home and have a seat the next time that I come to town. What the heck.... 5 Stars!!! read more
