    My experience tonight with The Acorn's Dine Out menu was wonderful! Two of the offerings will call me back again anytime they're on the regular menu! Superb flavor and texture union. And all the offerings were flavorful and simply delicious. And the staff care was just exceptional. Best ever. It is a little noisy for me, but nothing that foam earplugs couldn't handle. I will return!

    Elem has been on my bucket list since moving away from Vancouver. I was fortunate to get the chance to dine and it lived up to every expectation I had! The cocktails were extremely creative, and well thought out out. The food was exceptional ! The staff was very knowledgeable and made me feel at home! Tamir was great, going above and beyond with some extra care for the table! I will absolutely recommend Elem to everyone! Phenomenal execution all around

    Overall food was very good. The execution of the main entree (3rd course) was perfect; arctic char was cooked perfect with crispy skin and the beef was tasty and tender. Servers were attentive and the pace of putting out dishes was good.
