| - This is my second review for Ely's; but, this time I've got pics!!!!!
Ely's is offering buy one, get one free after 4pm. That alone is fantastic. My fear is that they are offering it because they are not doing well. We lose too many good local places. It's a passion of mine to support local places, when they deserve it. Ely's does.
Last night, I had the tilipia cooked in spinach, mushroom, and alfredo sauce. My husband had the bbq chicken and shrimp. Both were delicious. My husband and I are rather talented in the kitchen, so eating out can be a mixed experience. I'm always excited when I have a dish that is not something I could make better. (I know, now I seem obnoxious and conceited. I promise I'm not. I'm actually kinda cute and sweet.)
Both of our dishes were lovely with excellent portion sizes. It's just the entree, no soup or salad. They do offer a nice appetizer menu. They also offer a lot of sweets for desserts. Twice now, I haven't had room for one of their crepe or stuffed french toast offerings. My body and I had words about it!!! The pictures look yummy and more than a bit decadent. Definitely something to try.
I do always try to include information for those of us concerned with mobility, seating, and access. If you don't struggle with mobility and size concerns, please feel free to go back to the part about the desserts. If bathrooms and seating keep you out of restaurants, you will appreciate this. The chairs are sturdy and without arms. There are mostly booths; but, I've not had to wait for a table. I was VERY pleased with the ladies restroom. It is wide enough for a walker or other device. The door is not super heavy; which can be quite a struggle when you're managing a walker. When will "they" design doors that are reachable, light enough to open with one hand, and don't swing into you? Ok, that's a soap box for another time! Ely's door is less difficult than most and they have amble space on either side of the commode, plus 2 rails!!! The commode is a bit low, but there are 2 rails, so no problem. 2 rails and space!!!
Service was wonderful. It has been both times. Our server treated us like a regular on our second visit. She's attentive, personable, and seems genuinely interested in your having a good time. There's no pressure to turn over the table or push to order more.
I hope we can keep this local gem going strong. Check out the buy one, get one after 4pm!
