Didn't offer to remake it. We took it and moved on. The matcha was very good at least! The staff could use some work. There was NO even simple apology, or even acknowledgment. Even walking into the shop, no acknowledgment, or welcoming/greeting. We gotta train people for customer service, being attentive, knowing what they are selling and how it can be made. The cashier was not friendly or welcoming at all.

They asked if I wanted to meet for breakfast, and so after looking up the options close to their hotel (which was surprisingly limited), I stumbled upon Elly's. After looking at Yelp reviews, it seemed like a great option and would be easy for them to Uber to. And it was a great choice. We ordered coffee, which they promptly refilled multiple times for us, and then two of us got the crepes with either strawberries or blueberries on top, and the other got one of the omlettes. The crepes were extremely good. Portions are great and prices are reasonable given the amount of food. The staff was friendly at 6:45 in the morning (they were way more awake than I was) No photos of the food because it was my first time meeting one of my colleagues IRL (and only the second time meeting the other) and I didn't want to be weird haha. But trust me that the food looked great. I took my leftovers home to my parents' house (because I was visiting them afterward). I let my dad have them because I knew they wouldn't survive the extra 90 minutes back to my house when I was done with my visit. He told me later he put vanilla ice cream on them and they were delicious, so they held up well in the 45 minutes it took me to get from Elly's to their house, and being reheated later in the day. I'd definitely go back anytime coworkers are at a conference and want to meet up (which is surprisingly often. Perks of living near a hub!)

I've been to Elly's before (definitely the one in Jefferson Park, possibly this one too) but it's…read morebeen more than five years since. I don't remember it being this bad but... now I know, I guess. Food was not great. The pancakes were kind of--well, gummy is the word that springs to mind. Not pleasant to eat, at any rate. The omelet I ordered, the Southwestern Omelet I think, was ok. It was a bit thin, but maybe that's just because there were a lot of ingredients in it. The "Homemade" lemonade tasted like it was fountain lemonade. I left half of it, and the half that was consumed was mostly because my child wanted some. That was especially disappointing, because I don't order lemonade at restaurants unless it's not Minute Maid because that stuff is awful--and if Elly's truly has homemade lemonade, they should be embarrassed that it tastes identical to what Coke sells. I don't usually eat everything when I go out for breakfast and am happy to take half home for another breakfast, but I didn't want to take any of this home with me. I will say that they're fast--we were here less than an hour. I think it took fewer than 15 minutes from the time we were seated to when we got our meal, and we didn't order immediately upon being seated. We went on Saturday round 9:45 a.m. and it was half empty, though it was Easter weekend so I'm not sure if that had any impact.

Their playlist curates a cozy vibe, 90s disco with modern flair. The seating was very comfortable. If you're looking to do some work here, there's an outlet accessible booth on the left side. You'll notice everyone wearing a shirt that says "Food is our LOVE language" & it really shows. This is the kind of spot you hope never changes.

I chose the turkey sandwich and it was kind of a let down. The best thing was the nice crunch from the toast it came on. There were maybe two slices of turkey on the sandwich. The rest was crisp lettuce and fresh tomato. The fries were great. The breakfast burrito was good but overly saucy it took away the flavor from the ingredients inside. The French toast was great if you have a sweet tooth but the bread was slightly smaller than I expected. The ambiance isn't anything extravagant but also homely in a way. It's a solid 4 and not a back to back ,but will consider going again in the future.

My challenge is and why I'm giving two stars is that their food is priced on a higher side with mediocre quality. They serve lamb loins, but listed as chops. I ordered lunch all the time and I've never had two mediocre loin. I asked our great waitress of how thick were the chops and where they double boned. She led me to a manager who said you get plenty of food and dodged my question. He simply should've said we don't serve chops. I spent almost $500 for six of us. I think they're a better spot to spend your money for that amount. I did reach out via phone call and email as suggested with no return calls or email. I don't plan to go back for a high priced meal plus a 3% surcharge.

They're fairly new so that comes with small hiccups. Nothing that ruins their reputation. I ordered the corn beef hash dish that comes with a side of sweet potato hash. I liked the dish quite a bit but I really wish they had given more corn beef and remove the cinnamon from the sweet potatoes. It was too much and the sweet potatoes could've been cooked longer. I enjoyed the dish and know I will return but those are things I would point out should someone choose said dish. I am anticipating them getting their liquor license to serve drinks that pair well with the dishes.

Did not enjoy. Food…read moreseems premade in bulk that morning as it is served out suspiciously quickly and the quality seems like it was sitting on a heater for a while. This would all be fine if they didn't charge prices comparable to most downtown brunch spots. The menu seems very limited and offers little to no substitutions even if you have dietary restrictions. If you order a platter that typically includes sausage but don't eat meat you cannot substitute and will still be charged full price even if you don't get the meat. The espresso/latte drinks are pretty bad and demonstrate little knowledge about espresso and basic café drinks. Though they are very well priced, the low quality makes it not worth it. The servers here all seemed great. Biggest L's are food/drink quality and the food price. Biggest W is location. The ambience and decor is not really my vibe - it gives a sort of middle aged interpretation of instagram brunch joints. Prices need to be lower or the quality needs to improved substantially (i.e. food should be made to order, seasoned, and well balanced for $16+ per plate.). Will probably not come back and would recommend. Very disappointing for a local community spot . Im rooting for the team here to improve and really show how great restaurants in our community can be!!

The ambiance can be described as nothing other than...REGAL. Just grand, and beautiful - you feel like you're surrounded by luxury. Even the hot sauce is dispensed in these cute glass bottles.

We visited to celebrate a birthday on a Saturday night with a reservation and were seated by the window to our delight. The ambiance in the restaurant is so cozy and rustic, a wonderful vibe. We were first brought Garlic Pesto Bread that was still warm and delicious. Later we ordered drinks and appetizers. Both the Honey Whipped Goat Cheese and Beet Salad were phenomenal and so unique. For entrees we ordered the Beef Tartare, Caesar Salad with Blackened Salmon (an added request), Italian Sausage Orecchiette, and Braised Beef Short Ribs. Absolutely nothing disappointed and everything our waitress Lauren recommended was spot on. She is a rockstar! For dessert we ordered two chocolate mousses, and Crème Brûlée to share. The perfect way to end our night. This is a great upscale date spot or place to celebrate as it is on the pricier side, but we could not have been happier with our food, service, and overall experience.
