the breakfast quality was so poor that we left our complimentary breakfast untouched and opted not to return the following day because the food was just so poorly thrown together. the eggs benedict with brisket looked like it was microwaved. the salad with my omlette was wilting. and the mushrooms inside my omlette was barely cooked. i wished we had better things to say but... we'd be really upset if we'd have to pay out of pocket for the food. given the restaurant is always dead when we visited it's pretty clear it's not the place to be in deep ellum. read more

Nice looking restaurant and great bar service. I am not sure on the food, I only had a couple of glasses of wine and a bottle of champagne. Located in the Kimpton Pittman Hotel in Deep Ellum. Dallas TX read more

We had free breakfast here from our hotel stay and it is such good quality. I ate the avo toast 2 days in a row, delicious! Also tried the cinnamon roll, ugh so good!! My partner had the eggs Benedict and pancakes. The pancakes were so fluffy and the Benedict doesn't come on English muffin, it comes on corn bread! So he liked that. Service is very fast, so that is nice because you can get your day going. The inside is very clean and comfy! A few good vegetarian options. read more

We got snacks for our room and cocktails at the bar in this BEAUTIFUL restaurant. Jose was our bartending and server both afternoons of our staycation and he was very friendly and helpful. So, we ordered chicken wings and deviled eggs to SHARE in the room. However, I guess I had built up a little bit of a hunger since I devoured everything except one deviled egg half and one chicken wing! My husband said the next morning, that all he "got was an egg and a leg!" I kid you not. The sweet chili gochujang wings and deviled eggs were just that good. So we got wings the second night and I let hubby have all of them. Aren't I sweet? The cocktails are top notch. I cannot say enough about the ambiance in this restaurant. I think it would make an excellent date night dinner experience. It is so cool that they have a really nice swimming pool outside and you can walk up to the bar pretty much poolside and order drinks. read more

It's a hotel restaurant and no worse or better than you expect. I ate four meals here in total 2 breakfasts and 2 dinners. The menu seemed small and pricey. Both breakfasts the service was good, friendly and prompt. The food was forgettable, not great (I had the avocado toast and eggs benedict). I also didn't think their drip coffee was great and just got an americano the next day. Dinner the first night was great! My waitress was awesome: prompt, attentive, and gave good recommendations. Both the burger and cocktail were great. Dinner the second night sucked. The waiter just did the basics (I actually had to just grab my cocktail from the bar because he forgot to pick it up / bring it to the table) when there may have been three other tables occupied in the restaurant. The food was nasty- I had the grilled cheese. It was very greasy and unappetizing. Overall, if staying in the hotel this isn't a bad stop for breakfast. The bar seemed great, the restaurant was expensive and below average for the price point. I'd recommend trying many of the resturants nearby instead of Elm & Good. read more

Although it was dead, the food was still so good. And our server was very attentive. They did run out of a few things but I was not bothered by that. Sometimes restaurants run out of stuff and that's okay. We opted for a Caesar salad and it was probably the best Caesar salad ever!! And for our main entrees we had a smash burger and the birria grilled cheese. All of it was 10/10 read more

American food. "Upscale" is up for debate, but it's at least decent fare. I had the potato croquettes, which were a little soft and missing a little crunch. The croquettes themselves didn't have a lot of flavor, but the pancetta saved the day. Small serving, which was fine, because I ordered multiple courses. I also had the Brussels sprouts, which were well-prepared, but the flavors (orange, ricotta, candied almonds) didn't shine through. For my entree I had the pan seared filet medallions. I ordered medium, and they were probably a little over-cooked, but the flavors were better than many places I've been recently. And the parmesan fries were crispy and flavorful. At 36 dollars, this was a winner. My server, Jose, was personable and attentive. He checked on me often and made great recommendations. For cocktails, I had the Pittman Pear margarita (el jimador blanco tequila, st. George pear liqueur, all-spice agave, and lime) the Tillie, Take Your Time (Tito's vodka, Gifford pamplemouse liqueur, cranberry, lime), hot lips (altos blanco tequila, luxardo, orgeat, firewater bitters, and fresh beet juice), and Portia in Paris (domaine de canton ginger liqueur, lillet blanc, lemon, pomegranate, sparkling wine). All the drinks had a good flavor profile, were pretty refreshing, and not cloying or sweet. They did have a few sweeter and coffee based drinks that I wasn't interested in, for those with different taste palates. The menu here is pretty limited, which isn't a bad thing. Mains include roasted chicken, fried haddock, peppered salmon, and NY steak. They also have house-made pasta (which I love, but don't trust most places with). Their selections include: wild mushroom fettuccine, cacio e Pepe, lobster bucatini, and skillet Mac n cheese. They also have salads and several other starters. My server said they sopresata and fig bread is amazing. Deep Ellum has so many restaurants that I wouldn't call this one a destination dining spot. But this was a Monday, the ambiance here was nice, tables and decor were clean and stylish, and the service was good. Would definitely dine here again (after checking out some of my other more creative options). read more

I went to Elm & Good to catch up with a girlfriend for lunch. It's very elegant in the inside! Super beautiful and spacious with places in the back to work, not that much but some. I didn't realize it was connected to a hotel which is why my salad & cocktail came out to around $40. The service was ok, the girl who was my server at the time was new. Maybe I would return one more time to try other bites but I just wasn't wowed. read more

The restaurant has a nice ambience. Parking was not bad because the Pittman Hotel offers complementary parking if you're eating at Elm & Good. While our server was very polite and kind, the service was extremely slow. We had to get up multiple times to get help. Our food also came out cold. We had a group of 8 and they even said they were serving as it came out, yet it was cold. The food was also mediocre. Very little seasoning. read more

The (+): Lemon-ricotta pancakes were delicious and they were kind enough to split them for us! The ambiance is lovely and it was convenient, given our stay at the hotel. The (-): Service was slow; the cashier/waitress ended up helping us nearly the entire time. read more

We had breakfast and night caps at Elm & Good. As you can see from my breakfast menu, it's pretty straight forward. The staff was helpful and accommodating. For breakfast, we particularly liked the Granola Parfait, see my pic. The Greek Yogurt wasn't overly tart and quite creamy. The granola was ample so the ratio was just right with the yogurt. The granola had a nice chew to it since it wasn't too dry and brittle. It comes with bit of fruit: one morning it was ample and the next it was skimpy. We also had the steel cut oatmeal, see my oatmeal pic. The oatmeal was creamy, yet still retained the texture of the oats. As you can see in my pic, they added plenty of toppings that added texture and flavor. This also had maple flavoring included in the oatmeal. I also added 2 eggs over medium, see pic, - these were fine. On one evening we stopped by for a night cap. Our bartender was extremely knowledgeable about the rendition of the drinks he made for us. He was quick and efficient. read more

Personally would skip this spot. Many other good restaurants in and around Deep Ellum. Came here because I was staying at the hotel. Few points of improvement: Better hours Nicer staff Quicker order processing I came here once for dinner and once for breakfast. Both times, I did not have a great experience. Everything was slow. Restaurant was pretty empty. Food was poor quality. Best thing I had was the yogurt for breakfast I ordered: Fried calamari - very rubbery (ie overcooked), and literally no flavor. It was just a vessel to eat the Calabrian aioli. No lemon on the side Salmon Caesar - fish was over salted but tasted fine. Was not over cooked. The Caesar itself had like a clumpy sauce and weird after taste Yogurt for breakfast - best thing I tried. Needed more chia seeds and fruit read more

I walked in and immediately felt as though I was being judged, as if I didn't belong or couldn't afford to dine there. The initial interaction set the tone -- the bartender spoke to me with a condescending attitude simply because I wasn't aware of the restaurant's schedule, and even one of the hosts seemed unsure of it themselves. After a quick restroom break and being served water, it became very clear that the TikTok I had seen portraying this place as warm and welcoming was completely misleading. I had been genuinely excited to try this restaurant and had looked forward to it all week, but the experience -- although brief -- left a very negative impression. The atmosphere and the staff made it feel uninviting and pretentious. I ultimately chose to leave before even ordering anything because the overall vibe was uncomfortable. It appears this establishment caters exclusively to a more "luxury brand" crowd, so I'll be staying away unless the expectation is to walk in wearing a $40k Rolex and driving a Lamborghini. read more

Service here is excellent. Stayed at the hotel for a work trip. The bartender gave us some tips and asked if he could refill my water bottle. At breakfast, the server double checked on us and made sure we had everything we needed. During the midday, it smells of warm wood, like a cozy fire. My favorite dish was the stuffed French toast. My lease favorite was the burger. It was super overcooked. read more

As noted by many others, Elm & Good is located in the Kimpton Pittman in downtown Dallas, and that is the main reason I gave it a try on several occasions. I love the hotel - it's fantastic and my go-to whenever I'm in Dallas. As part of my stays, I generally get breakfast comped with my room at Elm & Good, and the last time I was there, I decided to try them for dinner too. I want to give this place five stars, but there is so much inconsistency that it's hard to. The food is generally excellent. I've had everything from the croissant breakfast sandwich to the duck pasta and their various versions of potatoes (e.g., breakfast potatoes, frites, etc.), and each dish has been fantastic. I haven't had anything bad at all. But the service and wait time - yikes. It's a real toss-up. I've had the rudest and the nicest service, and I've experienced the fastest and the longest wait times in this restaurant at various points. If they can clean up all of those important efficiency things, this could be a really solid place. read more

We really had the best bartender at this hotel bar. We were staying here on a layover and came down for a night cap. He made me a really amazing whiskey cocktail. It was a decently big place, with a good vibe. We had some tasty fries too but would love to try the actual food one day! read more

Very attentive as one would expect located inside a Kimpton hotel but the food fell short. The kolaches were overcooked and the stone mustard contributed little to an already spicy sausage. The breakfast tacos were resplendent with cilantro which might work well for some but my 18 year old has an aversion to it and struggled to extract it from the dish. The oatmeal was a bit runny but likely the best of them all. read more

I learned about this restaurant/bar due to my passport book. This was probably the best deal in the book. You got 2 full-size glasses of wine for $1.01. This was probably the best thing about my experience. I was considering between a 3 and a 4, but I chose a 3 because of the circumstances that impacted my visit. When I first got there with my friend, the hostess, which we learned later, was the manager asked if we wanted to sit at the bar. We asked if we could sit at a table and learned that they were not open for dinner yet. We walked into the bar, but the bar was packed. There were some seats at the back of the bar with a bench seating along the wall and 3 tables and individual chairs on the other side. We first close to a door that lead outside but then learned the door was broken and ever time the wind swung open we heard loud music. There were two ladies sitting next to us, and they told us to move to the other side because it was so loud. We took their advice. It was a little better but still took away from the ambiance. After we sat for quite a while and still had no one come to our table, we asked the ladies if we had to go to the bar and what was going on? We learned that there was a mimosa walk, and that was why the bartender was slammed. Why he was without help didn't make any sense. We went to the bar to get our drinks, the wine was good and we had fun people watching but I would only come back if I knew they were not going to have any other events going on. read more

Pro tip: use the hotel valet parking and get it validated at the restaurant to bring the cost down to $7 The atmosphere and decor are very nice and sleek. Wasn't very busy when we went. Our server was very attentive and helpful. The food tho was subpar and overpriced. We started with the Charcuterie board which actually had a nice presentation and quality meats/cheeses. It definitely needed more carbs on it. I ordered the Roasted Curry Squash thinking that it was a salad with straciatella and squash as toppings. I was very mistaken. There's no way it was worth $17. My friend had the House burger and it was pretty weird. The "patty" is not a patty but really just chunks of meat that fell apart when you tried to eat it. Another friend had the Rosewood Ranches' Flatiron which was good but such a small portion that it wasn't filling enough. Another hotel restaurant to stay away from. read more

Typical hotel food; tasted like room service meals which, don't get me wrong, are great on their own but when I pick to "dine in" I have higher expectations on quality since spent time to dress up for the full experience. The tuna tartare tasted large-batch bland but its starch accompaniment was warm, soft, tasty bread. The cobb salad was decorated with so much blue cheese I almost asked for a to go box to take some home to add to my weekly meal prep and the chicken was just a touch on the ready-to-expire side. The fries tripped me out: they were dark brown like they had been over done but tasted underdone and failed the crisp test. Like they were par-boiled and then fried before they had a chance to dry? Give its location and decor the restaurant gives good face. The place is certainly pretty with a huge bar that perhaps would garner high reviews as a meeting place for drinks, but for sure the food is not their best selling point. read more

Service was OK and meals were edible. Tables are well spaced out but music is pretty loud under some tables. Goat cheese omelette was actually scrambled eggs assembled into a tube and filled with mozzarella. Latte was undrinkable, coffee was burnt. Lemon ricotta pancakes were light and fluffy. Chilaquiles were way heavy on the chips, more like egg nachos. Avocado toast was well made and poached egg on top was prepared just right. read more

A very pleasurable and relaxing evening it was here at Elm & Good. Their meticulous choices of furnishings, lighting, and, music set the mood. Loving every bite from Chef Graham Dodds' inviting farm-focused menu: starting off with perfectly cooked "East Texas Hush Puppies" dipped in an amazing Cajun remoulade sauce; next, the refreshing twist of "Lacinato Kale Caesar" with thinly shaved parmesan reggiano and crostini; as for my entree, outstanding "Lion's Mane", exotic mushrooms and saffron bomba rice; last but not least, mouth-watering freshly made-to-order "Churros" with tantalizing dips. With the ease of service, I felt right at home. Happy with all of our server's recommendations, including, "The Model-T" cocktail in kicking off the evening. I can hardly wait to come back to this lovely spot in Deep Ellum again and again. CHEERS! read more

Elm and Good is a gem in an otherwise young drunk infested neighborhood. The look is amazing and the vibe is on point. Food was really good - we had the two steak dishes. So why missing a star? It took 55 min from when we ordered till we got our food. No drink refills - service was spotty. Plenty of people, just not focused. Chef and team (3 others) should be able to maintain quality on a relatively short menu and crank up speed of service. Want a nice dinner before music and drinking - this is the place. read more

Wow wow wow. I was a guest at the Kimpton and walked downstairs for breakfast. The restaurant looks rode pretty hard for being fairly new; my table and chair wobbled, and the whole joint needed a bit of sprucing. Usually, when I have a meh experience dining out, I find myself feeling empathetic toward the staff. But my server's behavior was surreal. He seemed perplexed and bordering on annoyed in each of our interactions. I didn't get his name but Forest Whitaker would play him in a movie, and that's the only compliment I've got for this gentleman. I ordered a latte, and what was delivered to me was nearly boiling hot. Espresso is brewed at a certain temperature, and milk is steamed at a certain temperature, and after transference into a mug, a latte should never be so hot that it would burn one's tongue and throat. Inspecting it closer, it looked like maybe it was a previously made latte that had been put into the microwave. The breakfast sandwich I ordered was inedible. I felt like I was on candid camera. It tasted like an ashtray. I kept removing different components and going in for another bite, trying to figure out what on the sandwich was so foul, but I quickly realized there was no single component that was not stomach turning. Would not recommend even for convenience factor. read more

Loved our quick brunch before the big game. Food and drinks were delish and the environment was so perfect

We were staying downtown for the night and needed a brunch spot for the morning. We were not disappointed at all! Service: excellent. We got there right as they were opening, and were seated immediately and were treated excellently. The food and drinks were exceptional. I really want to go back. OH: Those deviled eggs! You have to try the deviled eggs! Breakfast food? Maybe not, but we'll get them for every meal at Elm & Good! Try it out! read more

Had a very enjoyable evening here. Great ambiance, perfect for date night. Waiter seemed new, a little nervous. But he was SO kind and attentive. Made sure we he checked in often, answered our questions on the menu well. Ordered the redfish.... very good! Well cooked. Also has the fried calamari as an app that was delicious. If you like gin, the cocktail with a pinch of cayenne was excellent - generous pour and it's a pretty pink color. Dress is business casual. Date night or after hours business attire. Great spot for that dress you've been saving to wear! Only downside ..... - entrees do not come with sides, and sides are over priced. Expect to pay $14 for 4 pieces of asparagus. With a typical order ..... one app, one entree, one side, and one cocktail, expect to be surprised that your bill will feel high. read more

Brunch experience: Went in optimistic. Had to seek out getting a cup of coffee after beyond reasonable and patient wait, lukewarm food, poached eggs were closer to hard boiled, competing music tracks (noted it but never remedied).

During our recent stay at the Pittman, we enjoyed dinner and drinks from Elm & Good, and I was blown away by both the food and service. Having gone so many years with a Christmas birthday, I knew that getting a meal can be complicated, especially while traveling, so weeks ahead, I contacted the hotel to ask if there would be a vegan option. I worked it all out with who I thought was the restaurant manager... who apparently did not mention any of this to the people actually working that night! But enter the bar manager (an amazing mixologist who I, unfortunately, did not get a name for)! He got everything worked out with the kitchen, who made us a special meal for my birthday that was off-menu and entirely vegan. It was incredible! We had an amazing mushroom paella, plus amazing ravioli and brussels sprouts appetizers. It was so good we wished we had more when it was over. It really meant a lot that they went above and beyond, despite the miscommunication, and they gave me a terrific birthday meal. Best yet- the bar manager personally delivered it to our hotel room door, allowing us to safely eat inside, although they did have great covid protocols in place. And I can't conclude without a shout out to the mixologist for his amazing cocktails! I had the Traveling Man, a twist on the Manhattan, which was incredible, and even better was the Creative Harmony, a mezcal miracle. I want one of those as I write this! read more

I had a great experience at Elm and Good. It's located in Kimpton Pittman Hotel. In a city that doesn't forget its roots, The Kimpton Pittman Hotel is stepping into the future with one foot in the past. Our building, designed by African-American architect William Sidney Pittman in 1916. I always wanted to go there and stay but it is eclectic having under a 140 rooms. I was going to an event the hotel was hosting. So having a chance to dine was right on the money. The space was quiet for about 10 minutes and then the bar area started buzzing. It got crowded with happy people having crafted cocktails. I think I confused the waitstaff when he offered me wine and my counteroffer was beer on draft. Sorry..not sorry . I'm a beer girl tried and true. It was a nice crisp lager as I waited for my friend. There was some beautiful lacing in the glass but I forgot to snap an after photo. I figured two appetizers and beer will keep full but not bogged down if I wanted to cut a rug/drop it low later. Deviled eggs are a weakness and when they add bacon you got me sold! I ordered that and bone marrow. That was a surprising because you don't normally see this at a bistro type of restaurant as I would depict having the range. It was filling and delicious. I would have loved another one. My friend had a big body burger. She seems very please and had a beer as well. Community IPA ..drink local my friends. Afterward we enjoyed Soul Rebels rock the stage with a New Orleans fusion with classic mashup's. It was so good. Elm and Good has parking for the restaurant and hotel. You have to be sure you slow down or you'll miss it like I did. I used the public parking and since it was a weekday it was affordable. I definitely want to go back and explore more of the menu selections and try a crafted cocktail. read more
