We stopped by on our trip to the beach and were not disappointed! I ordered their version of the party melt and the curly fries. I would definitely recommend getting this meal, curly fries were seasoned and fried perfectly. I really like how the sandwich was fried, the bread was crisp and it was delicious . Service was friendly. Kudos to the team there! The restaurant got full while we were there, so it's super popular. Street parking is available.

Showing half of the Redwood Burger and a Chicken Strips from my husband's basket.

Based on other reviews, we drove here for lunch from Brookings, OR. Glad we did! My husband ordered the Chicken Strips Basket which came with 6 huge strips perfectly fried, onion rings, coleslaw, Mac n Cheese, and a biscuit. All kinds of dipping sauces are available and they are not stingy with them either. I ordered the Redwood Burger with Fries and coleslaw. The burger is huge and tasty and I loved the brioche bun. Service was great! Prices are fair and I highly recommend going there! Plenty of parking across the street.

The blue building hosts the restaurant and a surf shop.

I ordered the chicken meal that came with three pieces of fried chicken, mac & cheese, coleslaw and a small biscuit served in a basket and two small bowls. The chicken was very hot and all the food was very good. Service was friendly and efficient. The restaurant is very basic and clean. Except for take-outs I was the first customer at noon but shortly after the place begin to fill up. A large parking lot is just across the street.

Not too many (decent) eateries we could find for dinner in Crescent City, but glad we went with Elise's. We arrived around 7:30pm and they let us know it was takeout only with a 45min wait. Everything else closed at 8pm so we were stuck. We picked up our food around 8:15pm and since they were closing, they threw in a mac & cheese for free. So nice! Food: The chicken tender basket was exactly that. Good ol' chicken tendies (good portions). The curly fries were kinda soggy, but the to-go box may have steamed them during transport. Overall, not memorable, but satisfying. The fried chicken was delicious and crunchy. If i ever found myself here again, I would get that as my entree. It's good the mac & cheese was free because it was okay. Kinda dry and bland so we added some pepper and buffalo to make things interesting. All in all, service was solid, food was expected, and at least we had a full dinner for the night!

I initially was excited about trying this new place here in Creacent city, but honestly for the price of the food the portions ARE disappointing. All the entrées are single so if you a burger & they ask you what you would like for a side its 3.50 for small handful of French fry's. so I ordered the club & was taken back by the fact it had store bought lunch meat it Only came with two slices of meat for my club sandwich .def didn't look like the menu picture I paid 17.50 for the sandwich & 3.50 for my side.

I accidentally found this restaurant by walking by. I ordered the Turkey melt and fries. This was absolutely delicious and I mean delicious. Great atmosphere for any and all ages. They open at 11am JP the cook was so nice. Kjersren the waiter was so nice and friendly. Her customer service skills are very good. She was beautiful and fun to chat with. Elise's was worth the visit. Outstanding food and fantastic service was perfect for a much needed meal. Thank you Jim

The food and service are 5 stars. We were hungry and a bit desperate for a late lunch since our first place was closed. The group was a bit skeptical the 4.9 rating could be true, but it lives up to the star rating. The food came out quickly and was so tasty. I'm eating some of it for a leftover dinner. We'll go here again and send others too.

Chicken tender sandwich super good especially w the curly fries‍ Must go top 3 restaurants in cc

Such a little hole in the world restaurant. We had a big group on Christmas eve and Elise was open. Stopped by to get a quick burger meal but it turns out to be the best burger I've had this year. We ordered pretty much everything on the menu. Fried chicken, tenders, Redwood Burgers, salads and Swiss cheese and mushrooms burger. All are really good and made to order. swiss cheese mushrooms burger and fried chicken were my favorite. both of them are perfectly cooked. soo juicy, and chicken is crunchy on the outside read more

What a quaint and friendly little place to grab a bite! The owner (red-headed with glasses) seems like an utterly wonderful person running a quality restaurant with a charming personality. Decent variety on the menu including some more unexpected (but delicious!) offerings like bone-in fried chicken and lemonade made with blue butterfly pea blossoms. They even have a special sticker activity for little kids that put a big smile on my daughter's face. read more

My wife and I were looking for a place to eat while in Crescent City. She found this place and I read the reviews. Because I consider myself a hamburger connoisseur, I said let's try this place. The hamburger came out just the way I was hoping it might. It was an easy "10". On top of that, the curly fries were as crispy as any french fries I had ever eaten. Every last one of them. My wife had chicken tenders, and not only were they delicious, but we had plenty extra to take back to the B&B. A couple of young people own the place, and it's definitely worth a try. read more

I ordered a cheese burger with fries. It was a 10. Thick burger with tomato and pickle was delicious. The Fries were just like I like them. Now the Coleslaw (that comes in a small cup included) was not up to my liking, it needs a touch of vinager or lemon. Not taking points off because its my personal taste. My Friend had the chefs salad and it was a 10 also. Just the right size and presented nicely. The server was sweet and worked her butt off. (you are going to need a helper ). Good luck to this darling mom and pop and happy to support a local business. read more

Hub had a cheese burger, 7oz, and I had the chicken tenders with curly fries. We both absolutely loved it, next time we are getting the onion rings and hub fried chicken they looked delicious.

Service: our server was kind and pleasant. Food arrived in a timely manner. Ambiance-average for the coast. I gave a 3 star because, while the breakfast was on par, later on in the day... not so good. We ate breakfast and headed south. Dessert review: On our return trip north at dinner time, we stopped in to get the chocolate cake as we were celebrating our 31st anniversary on 3/19. Husband went in without me and asked for chocolate cake. At first the worker began to cut "unusually small pieces" at ANY price point. My husband spoke up about how small the size. When the worker rung it up, the price was $30 for 2x , yes 2x, let me repeat that...2x pieces of cake!!!!! She had a bad attitude, she was rude, she was put out to provide good service to a paying customer. She justified $30 by saying the cake was from Cheese Cake Factory. I recognize good labor is hard to find on the coast. (I'm certain I've seen this same chocolate cake and cheese cake for sale at our local Grocery Outlet...about $30) I'm sorry for the restaurant that this is the best employee they could find. When my husband came out ... he was p.o.'ed. Then he told me the cake was a few dollars short of our breakfast price and $30 was charged to my card. I FLIPPED A GASKET AND WAS EVEN MORE P.O.'ed. We are locals and we feel SO RIPPED OFF AND TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF! My husband thinks he was hustled and gouged and overcharged BECAUSE HE WAS! Unfortunately, I don't think we'll return. Word to the wise, if the price isn't printed in the menu...buy at your own risk.

The guy helping with ice cream gave the impression he'd rather be anywhere else but there. One of the ice creams we got tasted old. The hot fudge wasn't hot and it looked like it was just clumped on top. After interacting with him, my kids asked if they had done something wrong. I had to explain to them that they were not the problem. Not really the experience you're looking for when you're getting a family treat. The lady at the register also had a sense of irritation. I ordered a burger and added mushrooms. The burger arrived without the mushrooms. I would have mentioned it but i decided I'd rather eat it without them than to interact with them again. The burger was okay. If the staff wasn't so bad, we'd give it another shot.

If you're looking for the best burger experience in town, look no further. The owners have truly created a gem. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warmth and genuine hospitality. Their passion for great food is evident in every bite, from the perfectly cooked burgers made with top-quality ingredients to the mouth-watering desserts that are simply unforgettable. The atmosphere is always clean and inviting, making it a perfect spot for any occasion. The care and thoughtfulness the owners put into every detail, from the food to the service, really stand out for around the area. If you're craving a delicious burger and a sweet treat to top it off, this is the place to be! Highly recommend, the redwood burger and homemade desserts read more

Me and my boyfriend went here the other day passing through the city. It was SOOO good, definitely one of the best burgers I've had. We told them we were sharing and they even split the food for us. The guy who was the host/server was awesome, cool guy! Im pretty sure his name was James or JP. You can tell how he had built a relationship with the people that come through regularly. Although the inside isn't the best looking (IT WAS CLEAN), there just wasn't very much decoration or anything but thats not anything we're worried about haha. Cant wait to come back sometimes and see if they changed anything, hopefully not the amazing food though. Keep it up!! read more

The BEST burger joint ever! Even if you don't know quite what you want but have a craving, talk to Kjirsten, she always has the perfect suggestions. My family is very picky, my husband likes his burgers cooked just the right way and now he doesn't like burgers from anywhere else. I try not to eat hamburger but was craving a mushroom Swiss burger, Kjirsten recommended eggplant instead of hamburger and now I can't get it out of my head because it was sssoooo delicious! I have been telling all my vegetarian friends, eat at Elisa's, the best burger joint ever! read more

So we were looking for a quick stop and saw Elise's with burgers and chicken. As we got closer, we read reviews and it had high remarks. There were six of us and we order all different foods off the menu. The service was great and the staff made us feel welcomed immediately. The burgers, chicken, cole slaw, fries and onions rings tasted great just like the reviews said. What really made the complete experience were the sauces that were served with the food. I would totally recommend this eatery to locals and visitors like us. :) read more

Service is good food is basic,chicken tenders are made in house yet without love.chicken is simply dipped and fried when they could be pressed down to flatten and shorten cook time. Not leave the chicken strips super thick and make them take longer to cook.dessert portions are also very small. You can order a sliver of a pie for dessert.Alabama white sauce had the consistency of water. For having 5 menu items alot more could be done. WEAK read more
