" I ventured out to Elaine's after seeing all the good reviews, and I must say, I wasn't disappointed! The food is clearly prepared with care, but the service was just 50/50. Some staff members were very attentive, while others seemed occupied. I will give it another shot with some friends soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was very pleased with my experience at Elaine's. The seating arrangement made for a cozy evening, and the service was top-notch! I had the rigatoni with tomato sauce, which was decent but could have had a bit more seasoning. All in all, a nice spot I'd recommend to friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Elaine's after hearing all the buzz, but my visit didn't quite match the hype. The spaghetti I ordered was bland, and the meatballs were just okay. I had better experiences in the past, which leads me to believe it might have been an off day for the kitchen. The staff were friendly, yet the food was a letdown. " (*Curated Review*)

" Elaine's is a place I visit during special occasions. The service is always polite, and food quality has remained exceptional. I didn't quite enjoy their meat dishes; however, their pasta is righteous. A great family restaurant overall, just gotta be particular with the ordering. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was very disappointed with my last visit to Elaine's. While the ambiance is pleasant, my dish arrived lukewarm and lacked flavor. It felt like they were cutting corners with the ingredients used. Service was average; the staff seemed overwhelmed, which could explain our food being delayed. I hope they can turn this around because it's a charming place that I want to love. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had my skepticism on what to expect, but delighted at my experience at Elaine's! The ambiance felt like home. I had a mix of seafood and pasta, which was fresh and cooked rightly. Highly recommend to anyone craving some good Italian dishes with a nice twist! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently hosted a birthday party at Elaine's and everything went flawlessly! The staff was extraordinarily helpful in making arrangements for our group, and the food received rave reviews from all guests. The chicken piccata and the penne with vodka sauce stood out as favorites. I highly recommend this restaurant for any celebrations! " (*Curated Review*)
