Tonight was our very first visit to the intimate and sophisticated Elements Restaurant. We came to celebrate our anniversary and were lucky to have Mary as our server. From the moment we arrived we were treated like regulars which included being sat at a window seat table with a Happy Anniversary card on it. What a sweet touch.Mary was gracious enough to walk me through the menu and possible modifications give that, sadly, I cannot eat dairy due to a medication I am on. They were very gracious and greatly helped me navigate the menu.Now let’s talk about the meal. We started with two drinks: An Old Fashion and An Apple A Day, both of which were very good. We then had the Octopus appetizer with the avocado mousse on the side. It was perfect. My partner, who can have dairy, said the mousse was very good and also agreed that the appetizer was great with or without it. For our entrees I had the Rigatoni and they had the Bucatini Pasta. The food was perfection. I finished off the meal with the Blueberry Cheesecake (vegan) and my partner had the Crème Brûlée. The cheesecake was delicious and my partner said the crème brûlée was the best they’ve ever had. Complements to Chef Sosa!We asked about their tasting menu (Mary stated this is a new offering) and were told that it is the chefs passion and that he would be willing to make modifications such as what I need so we immediately made reservations for two weeks later. We both agreed that we have found our new favorite restaurant.Vegetarian options: Several vegetarian and vegan options to choose fromDietary restrictions: I was happily accommodated with my dairy free needs. There were also several gluten free options on the menu.

Was here for a quick brunch before heading to Portland airport but it turned out to be an awesome experience. The pork loin dish was the main highlight with diverse flavors mingled very well with one another, but the pancake was spectacular too! Highly recommend!

We stopped in for drinks and appetizers on the patio and we ordered the Brie crab dip and the Asparagus crab cake. The Brie crab dip was so amazing and you definitely were given a generous portion of crab. The Asparagus crab cake was so beautifully presented that we almost didn’t want to eat it…but we did and the flavors were lovely, slightly sweet and slightly savory. Our server Mary was friendly and knowledgeable. Next time I think we’ll sit inside as it looks so pretty with the tree sliced dining tables and local art work lining the walls. Well done.

Amazing sustainable food. Prices are great, beautifully plated, and various cocktails. We reserved the top floor for a birthday party during brunch. I ordered the pork tenderloin schnitzel with poached eggs with espresso martini. Everyone’s food and drinks were beautiful and delicious.

Dinner was insane last night. The bucatini pasta was LITERALLY the best pasta I have ever had from a restaurant. Period. I’m literally praying that you guys keep it on the menu permanently. PLEASE.Also, the strawberries and cream tart was so lovely for a very light dessert. Not super sweet, a beautiful delicate vanilla flavor, and the super crunchy crumbly chocolate crust.Thank YOU!!!!

Delicious brunch spot in Vancouver. From the tasty cocktails to the savory specialties, everything was fantastic. Service was amazing and so friendly. Shrimp & Grits is my go-to brunch as well as Eggs Benedict. Hubby tried the Dungeness Crab Bene with a Housemade Portuguese muffin. The spicy flavor in the Shrimp & Grits were perfect and hit the spot! Definitely a must try if you are in the area. Parking lot directly behind restaurant with direct access.

Food was tasty - not amazing. Service was friendly, but slow. Place was a bit dingy and dirty and dead plants at entrance did not set a great tone.
