    Terrific service and excellent food! There were more kids than I would have thought there would be on Halloween evening but the food was tremendous. Steak cooked just the way my wife likes it and the salmon was tasty! The spinach artichoke dip was excellent and the sides (mashed potatoes and Brussel sprouts) were very tasty (and large portions for two of us!) Would definitely return!

    The steak was not cooked as requested on 2 separate occasions! Even with a second attempt, they did not get it right. The bread was store-bought and hard. Even the dessert was not satisfactory. Overall very disappointed in this dining experience.

    We celebrated my husband’s birthday at Elway’s and it was fantastic! He got the New York strip steak. It was cooked perfectly and he ate every single bite! He also enjoyed the mashed potatoes. I had the house salad which was simply delicious. I also had the coconut shrimp. There were 3 huge shrimp with a tasty slaw which included cashews. They brought my husband a slice if dark chocolate cake for his birthday. It was a memorable meal!

    Quality of food was below average, steak temperature wasn't to order. Potatoes were dry. Server had an attitude when it was brought to his attention.

    Love dining at Elways, as it's got an energetic vibe & wonderful food. The artichoke dip is one of our favorites & never disappoints. The filet is our top choice for meat selections & the almon is lovely as well. Wait staff is friendly & attentive, although they do tend to get overly busy at times.
