We have travelled extensively and had great experiences. But we can walk to the Elixir for a terrific meal and ambience. One of our favorite restaurants anywhere. Great service and the food is terrific. The salmon is to die for. Ditto for beef bourguignon! Nice...outdoor seating in season. Highly recommended.

We were a large group with wide ranging tastes and preferences. Everyone enjoyed his/her dinner. The staff was friendly, helpful and efficient. Great place for a business group dinner.

I went to this restaurant for my boyfriend's birthday and we had a fantastic experience. The atmosphere was inviting, the food was delicious and all made in-house. The servers were attentive and knowledgeable.
