Elements is OPEN for DINE IN & TAKEOUT!

From the moment you walk in to the last delicious morsel you will taste, we promise to deliver a unique and exquisite dining experience. Our cuisine combines classical as well as modern Asian and European cooking techniques to enhance the flavors of local and sustainable ingredients. Our menu changes often to capitalize on the freshest and most seasonal fare. We believe George Barnard Shaw said it best when he said. There is no love sincerer than the love of food." We couldn't agree more. From fork to mouth, we wish you good eats.

My spouse and I have been going to Elements for special occasions for many years, and this place continues to delight us. The quality of the food is so impressive, and the service is consistently excellent. We had a lovely evening and we look forward to our next visit.

First time in this restaurant - food was very good, service and ambience excellent. The menu for Christmas Eve wasn’t too extensive but there was enough choice to make it interesting. We will definitely be returning before long.

We had a great meal at Elements. My friend had the Salmon Wellington and I had the peppered tuna special. We also ordered the Chinese buns to start which were just incredible. Our server Lizzie was wonderful.

great experience always trying to try new restaurants and new experiences. Tried their gin and tonic; tuna tartare appetizer; followed by the Cesar salad with anchovies; and followed by the duck bao buns. I had all appetizers but the meal was so satisfying. Finished off with coconut cake for dessert!!!!

Limited but excellent choice of Asian fusion options ranging from minimal to somewhat spicy. Shrimp dish is exceptional and seafood tastes like it was caught 2 hours ago. Nice ambience as well

The food was great but for some reason, this time at Elements, it took a long time to get our food. Apparently there were two large parties. I don't really want to do that again. And, the restaurant was cold. Too cold.
