" If you're looking for a lively atmosphere, look no further than Elephant and The Dove! Everything from the decor to the music adds to a vibrant dining experience. I had the tacos al pastor, and while they were tasty, I was hoping for a bit more seasoning to elevate the dish. Nonetheless, the margarita selection is fantastic, and my friends and I left with big smiles. I’d definitely come back, especially for those drinks! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food and great cocktails are what wait for you at Elephant and The Dove! I loved the variation of dishes they had, particularly their birria tacos that left me wanting more. The meat was tender and seasoned perfectly. The waitstaff were friendly, making the whole experience enjoyable. It also had a chic atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a great evening out! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Elephant and The Dove was pretty good, but it could have been better. The food was decent, and I appreciated the vegan options on the menu. I had the cauliflower tacos, but I thought they could have been seasoned better. Service was decent, but it did take a while for us to get our drinks. The atmosphere is really nice, and I loved the decor; it’s worth trying if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was a little underwhelmed by my visit to Elephant and The Dove. The ambiance and decor were lovely, but the food did not live up to my expectations. I tried their shrimp tacos, which were well-made but lacked some of the spices that would make them pop. Service was attentive, but the overall experience didn’t just wow me. It was good, but I think I’d explore other places for Mexican food next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, Elephant and The Dove should be the benchmark for what a modern Mexican restaurant ought to be! The atmosphere felt chic and lively—a perfect night out spot. I could not get over how fresh the ingredients in my burrito were, but it didn't feel as authentic compared to what I've tried in Mexico. However, it's such a beautiful place, I can overlook that! I will definitely be bringing my friends next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Elephant and The Dove to celebrate my friend’s birthday, and it did not disappoint! The ambiance struck a balance between casual and upscale, making it perfect for our celebration. The food was fresh, with the highlight being the churro sundae—absolutely amazing! The only downside was the slow service during peak hours, but the staff were friendly and accommodating. Overall, a place I highly recommend for both food and atmosphere! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dinner at Elephant and The Dove was a mixed bag. On one hand, the atmosphere was lively, and their signature cocktails were fantastic. On the other hand, the enchiladas were average and didn't match the hype. The service was friendly, but slow. I might return to try something different based on the excellent reviews!
