    Food was very good. Though the service of the waiter was the real reason for this review. This is a very spendy place to eat. Bill was over $800 for just my wife and myself and we didn't eat that much food. Service by the waiter was phenomenal. Very knowledgeable and very attentive to our needs and requests. That really made the evening special. The food was very good, though not really worth the cost. Really was the waiter.

    Came here for our 21st anniversary, we had our reception here 21 years ago. Probably won’t come back for another 21 years. Good was average and over priced for what it was. A table of noisy drunk guys behind us, kind of disappointing.

    I always love the food at Elements at the Sanctuary. I love the views most of all and I have a favorite booth. I wish it was easier to write a review on open table though as the email code takes so long and I typically don't wait. Why isn't the phone number verification enough. If it was I'd leave more reviews on open table.
