    I met my friend at Elmos which is her favorite restaurant. The decor is beautiful but we were disappointed with the outcome of the food. We ordered the Elmo burgers. My friend asked for medium rare and I asked for medium well. They both came back well done! The funny part is NO ONE was dining there for lunch when we arrived and the chef STILL got it wrong. The waitress offered to have the chef redo my friend's order but I told her that would put us off kilter in terms of finishing at the same time. There was no excuse for this to happen!

    Pleasantly surprised by the whole experience. Just chose the restaurant at random and we had a great evening with our friends.

    The service and the food were very good. The space was nicely done. The only issue was that the noise level was high.
