“ We went for a birthday dinner. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with Happy Tuesday! by a couple of lovely hostesses. Until that day, I dont think I had ever heard that from someone who actually meant it before. Our waitress was also very friendly. The drinks and the food were all great. We had the special boned in ribeye. I asked for the white truffle whipped potatoes and it was simply the best mashed potato I have ever had. Im so glad we found this place. Looking forward to going back soon! ”
“ Great cozy atmosphere. Pretty small and intimate. The person taking care of me Saturday night with an above the shoulder length hair was excellent. Knowledgeable about allergies as I have a dairy allergy and it was easy to order with them. I highly recommend the filet mignon! I switched the sides to accurate my allergy. The asparagus was really delicious though! Along with the potatoes. Im glad I got the sauce on the side however because it was a bit sweet. Lemon sorbet is the only dairy free option available. ”

“ Went to 9 Elm on Wednesday for a birthday dinner with a friend. She ordered the filet mignon and me the pork chop. Both were mouthwatering and cooked to perfection! The pork chop was served on a bed of delicious chipotle mashed sweet potatoes along with a side of asparagus and carrots. We did order the stuffed dates also for an appetizer...Yum! For dessert we had the creme brulee and chocolate cake. Both were excellent! They have an awesome cocktail menu as well. Our server Jillian, Wednesday nights, was super friendly, accommodating and attentive! Dont miss out on this gem of a restaurant! ”
