Best Pre-Theater Restaurants in Financial District

When we (8 people) came, we had an ability to select the table from few suggested. Waiter was polite and attentive. Order was taken and food and drinks were served in timely manner. Drinks were good. Food was pretty good. We often came to Elephant & Castle for lunch or dinner! Always good!

Over the top experience… they recognized and made a birthday very special!

We went there for the New Year's Day Buffet Brunch 2025. Usually, the food at the buffet is mediocre unless it is at a high-end hotel. Even then, the food can be hit or miss. However, the New Year's Day Buffet at the Marseille was very well executed. The beef steaks were a perfect medium rare. The salmon and the roasted chicken were tender and moist. The mussels were dressed well. There was a seafood section, raw oysters and clams, and extra-large shrimp. Service was attentive, and the atmosphere was festive. We had a good time. We will go back for dinner.

Our server was amazing! Great vide! Just there for drinks before the show! When a mixed drink came to strong she immediately could see something was wrong on my first sip. Took it back to to rectify! 2nd one was perfect. Chatted with us and told us about karaoke, line dancing and drag brunch. Super bubbly and enjoying her job. Will definitely be back!

Food was excellent, group got buffalo chicken dip and hummus plate to start — both great — and a burger, beyond burger, chef’s special pasta, chicken parm, and steak frites. Everyone enjoyed their meals with no complaints. Service however was not great. Waitress was not present or sincere. Otherwise great meal in a great atmosphere with lovely Christmas decorations!
