Elsa's Grill Review…read more Elsa's Grill is a great spot for a delicious meal. The lamb is absolutely awesome -- tender, flavorful, and cooked just right. The salads are very good, fresh, and pair perfectly with anything on the plate. They've got a great lunch menu, and it's a really nice place to sit back and enjoy your food . Always a solid choice when you want good flavors and a relaxing place to eat.

I am sad to write this review because I really want Elsa's to thrive. We have dined in, called in…read moreorders to go and went into the restaurant and ordered take out. Dine in meals have always been great. Called in orders were repeatedly wrong so we decided to go to the restaurant and place our orders "to go". Most times we received a great meal with occasional errors. Today we went to the restaurant and placed our take out order but when we got home we discovered our main meal (Greek salad) incomplete - no salad dressing, 1 half of a sliced cucumber, 2 strips of purple onion, an over abundance of shredded carrots - I could go on but you get the picture. I'm sad to say that the only time we get what we ordered is when we dine in. Elsa's has been my favorite go-to meal but sadly no more. Wish they could do better.

Also major plus that they have outdoor seating and their outdoor seating was dog friendly. My fiancé and I came here on a Saturday afternoon and sat outside with our two pups and they were nice enough to bring them water without us even asking. We ordered the sampler to start off with which had a little bit of everything and nice big portions. For entrees I had the falafel sandwich and my fiancé had the gyro food. Food was absolutely delicious. I loved everything. I can't wait to come back soon.

I've a huge fan of this sorta food..and was one of the first customers when they opened..and I'd…read morejust like to take some time to adress the manager/owner Mike on here... I just want to say I walked in today and I just want to say the place smells like straight trash juice... tabbouleh was like encrusted to the sides of container like it's been out all week... The only one Grape leaves they had out looked putrid.. Like it's been out since last week as well Also no desserts in cold refrigerator The only dessert they had was left out and looked super dry and still trying to sale them and hardly anything in stock Along with wilted lettuce for sandwiches I've come to you and specifically order a chicken shawarma sandwich with hummus The guy who is working is sooooo rude and unwilling to help with order ... Told me he can't make a sandwich with hummus I told him if paying for the hummus was an issue...that I would pay 4$ for hummus if needed..but just refused to take care of the customer...this was before I asked him what he was doing because he grabbed a Togo box ...and proceeded to to put hummus in a box and then act like I didn't order it on a sandwich And this isn't the first time Last time he got mad because I asked for my sandwich in pita bread not tortilla bread..lol (that would make it a burrito) And acted like I was asking too much.. When all I want is a sandwich I order made correctly... I just gonna leave this here I would not recommend this place to anyone... You want good place go to Dimassi's on nasa blvd.. But do not go here unless you want to spend a lot of money on food poisioning And a hint of stank from there place up your nose for a good 30mins You'd definitely remeber this place but not for anything positive Please Mike hire new people Who know what they are doing And who care about the buisnes. While your gone Again do not eat here

We were a little intimidated by the reviews, but this place delivered. We both got the #1 Chicken…read moreShawarma plate and were very happy. It was traditionally made, with chicken thighs, and did not feel greasy at all. Very tender meat and mildly spiced. The hummus was mild as well, and you could tell it was homemade. Super creamy and light. The rice was cooked perfectly. The salad was small, but fresh. The yogurt sauce was flavorful, and was intended for the salad but could be mixed with the chicken if you need more flavor. My husband got the spicy mango yogurt and liked his, too. The whole meal felt very healthy. This a super casual, quiet and calm place to eat which we appreciated. Highly recommend it!

I've been eating here with my wife and daughter for 4 years and have ordered the beef shawarma and…read moreHallumi cheese every single time, and every single time we have never been disappointed. The beef is flavorful and fresh, the hummus is seasoned, and the fried potatoes are always PERFECT. My wife and I have almost asked the cook how he manages to get the potatoes so consistently golden and crispy. The waitresses have always been nice and attentive. The decorations on the interior made us laugh the first time we saw it, but the music is quiet unlike every other restaurant that feels the need to assault your ears with music so that you can't hear yourself think. I have no idea what the bad reviews of this place are talking about with unflavorful food or bad wait times. We have never waited more than 20 minutes for our entree.

The food (fish aladdin with red snapper and a ribeye) was excellent, the service was superb, and even the area we were seated was relatively quiet, even though we dined at a later hour and big groups started coming toward the end of our meal.

My husband planned a nice date night that we thought we'd really enjoy based on past experiences…read morewith Mazen's, but we should have read the signs. Upon arrival, we realized my husband mistakenly booked the reservation for the wrong date. The host was incredibly gracious and managed to seat us promptly despite the busy atmosphere. Our waiter greeted us warmly, and our appetizers (the hummus and lamb lollipops were fantastic) arrived quickly which set a promising tone for the meal. However, after ordering our entrees the service rapidly declined. Our server became a rare sight. We both ordered the ribeye steaks, and while we know these aren't quick ticket items the wait time was a little longer than we expected. The meal took about an hour to arrive and our food was delivered to the table by another staff member. Judging by how badly she burned her hands on the plates compared to how dried out our potatoes were and how lukewarm our steaks were, we believe they had been sitting under a heat lamp for a good minute. Our waiter didn't check in during the meal, and our water glasses weren't refilled until we were nearly finished. Additionally, the table was quite unsteady which made cutting the steaks a bit challenging. The food and service quality didn't align with the prices and desired ambience of the restaurant, which was very disappointing. We arrived at 6:45 PM and received our check around 8:55 PM, making the evening longer than we anticipated for a typical date night. While the initial hospitality was appreciated, the overall experience fell short of our expectations. We may consider giving Mazen's another chance in the future, but for now we'll explore other dining options.
