Elk restaurant stands out for its prime location, spacious layout, and friendly staff. However, the espresso drinks leave much to be desired as they are often burnt or made incorrectly. Additionally, the food is underwhelming and overpriced. If you are seeking a spot to work with wifi near the park, but are not particular about the food and drinks, Elk could be a suitable choice.

The restaurant was really nice, but the lattes were the worst I've ever had. They had to throw them out because they tasted like tepid flavored water.

I adore this restaurant; I typically visit for the outdoor seating in the back while enjoying one of their teas. They serve delicious French toast and have friendly staff. I will definitely return!

Drip coffee was fine. Cold brew was watery. Good blueberry scone and avoided the sandwiches due to the reviews. Nice backyard. Food: 3 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 5
