    Excellent experience from valet drop-off to dessert. Vista of Paradise Valley from the dining room is beautiful. Menu was varied (sushi to seafood and meat) and dishes we chose were excellently prepared and presented. This was a great restaurant for a special dinner!

    OMG, where to begin in our experience. Chef Mathew Hobbs cuisine & his culinary team blew these two hospitality industry veterans away with his creativity & fine food execution. We were fortunate to have the personable service master, Nathan guide us through the numerous delectable menu choices. Nathan is exceptional for his knowledge & a perfect collaborator to the culinary team. Elements is absolutely a Michelin Star level experience without the pretension & the gracious , friendly staff made this a most memorable evening for us. Thank you.

    This place is one of the best in the valley for views and ambience. The menu is a bit more traditional (and frankly less interesting) than it has been in past years, but the quality is high...as are the prices. Service seems to have taken a step backward from prior visits and wasn't commensurate with the pricing. Our server was friendly enough but seemed to have too many tables so we had a few lulls. But the views are amazing and the food well-prepared, so it's still a great special occasion restaurant.
