The Manager is really great at this restaurant. She was able to accommodate us and our BIG party. The food is so-so, but at least the Manager really tried.

Great place for brunch.

I have been here on two separate brunch occasions in the past 6 months and I would definitely mark both experiences as pleasant. The mimosas are very tasty and I highly recommend the donut balls that they serve as a starter. Their eggs benedict, scambled eggs, and pancake are all very tasty and delicious. The place is always crowded so try and get there early, or make reservations.

The restaurant itself has a very nice decor, as you can be situated in a tiny booth that will give you plenty of privacy without anyone overhearing your conversation. The waiters while friendly, tend to rarely stop by, but I think this is due to the number of tables that they must wait on.

Great for groups!: I had originally posted a less-than-glowing review of Elite but after going there for Thxgiving dinner with a party of 8, I was thoroughly impressed. Our server was wonderful and took care of us throughout the evening. We had the option of ordering a traditional turkey dinner, a pork loin, or salmon. The sides were complimentary and our table was covered with so much food that we sadly couldn't finish it all. I could barely eat my dessert and that is unheard of. The biscuits were the popular item of the night - absolute melt in your mouth goodness. Thank you Elite, for a memorable Thxgiving experience.
