    Steaks were great, and I especially loved the creamy horseradish sauce. The sides could be better. We ordered the artichoke, which was a bit tough and over salted, and we ordered the brussel sprouts, which did not live up to the expectation.

    Overall Elway’s was good, but isn’t worth the bang for the buck… For the price we expected great. The one ‘great’ from dinner was the crab cake. It was beautifully presented, big enough for 4 to share, and delicious with big lumps of crab. The downside is that we were freezing! 🥶 They honestly need to fix something. We had a plug in heater at our table that we gave to the table next to us when we left. They were freezing as well.

We hope to see you again soon at ELWAY'S Downtown, and we'll strive to make your next visit a more comfortable one. Best regards, ELWAY'S Downtown Management Team

    This was our first trip here. I had read the mixed reviews but wanted to try Elways’s for myself and form my own opinion. The restaurant was very busy and Steven was our server. He was super friendly and we asked his opinion on a couple of items and he gladly answered our questions. Food was nothing short of amazing. We started with grilled artichoke and salads for appetizers. Both were fantastic. My wife had an 8oz filet(medium) and I had the 10oz filet(medium)and mashed potatoes. Steaks were cooked perfectly, very tender and tasty. Wine was great. Overall one of the best places we have eaten and again Steven was fantastic. We will definitely return soon.

    I celebrated my birthday at Elway’s with my husband , my two boys and a friend. They made my birthday weekend special with excellent service and phenomenal food. We ate 2 breakfasts and 2 dinners in one weekend here (stayed at the Ritz-Carlton) and we enjoyed each occasion. I highly recommend this restaurant.
