   Elm Dining is an excellent restaurant with great attention to the preparation of food from a small but carefully curated menu, including the choice of ingredients and the manner in which they were assembled and presented. Our waiter Gisela was quite wonderful and engaging. She carefully explained the choices on the menu and at all times was attentive to our needs. This is a restaurant that we would be happy to recommend to anyone wishing to experience fine dining in a beautiful old home in an area of stunning beauty. And, Gisela’s thoughtfulness to present my wife with a birthday cake and an added sparkler was a brilliant way to conclude our evening.

   It had been some time since our last visit to the Elm and it has improved (if that is possible). The atmosphere was quiet with low lighting and the feeling of dining in an old homestead. The wine list was extensive without being overwhelming. The food choices were fabulous. A range that catered for alk needs (including dietary). Would recommend.

   Loved our anniversary dinner here. The food was delicious and the staff were knowledgeable and seemed to really enjoy working there. The perfect place for a special evening out. If I was still in Bright for my birthday next week I would go back!

   Excellent Christmas Eve menu, with the chargrilled prawns a real standout. Beautiful ingredients and well balanced in a lovely setting. Highly recommended.
