I have not eaten here recently, but I'd like to throw my two cents in as to why. I used to love the Elephant Bar when I first moved to AZ. The atmosphere is cool and they had some special lobster sauce. But after my initial two times, the food was terrible. I took my mom, stepdad, and little siblings there... They were not impressed. Then I took my dad and stepmom there... Again, not impressed. Furthermore, I had been raving and even my food was terrible. The fried food was so dark and greasy that even the kids wouldn't eat it. The sauces were different both times. It took forever for the food to come out. Their only saving grace was the coconut shrimp... Which quite honestly, is no better than the frozen costco version so not enough of a save to bring me back... Ever.
