Awful, awful, awful! My husband & I decided to try something new in The District for our one-year anniversary. We decided on The Elephant Bar despite several friends telling us the food was terrible. I usually don't write reviews unless the business is extraordinarily amazing or awful...this place is definitely classified as awful in my book. My husband ordered a chicken/tri-tip combo plate, which didn't look anything like the picture. The chicken was marinated in some sort of sauce that tasted like the smell of dirty feet; the tri-tip was not very good either. I ordered the Misoyaki Salmon, which was very dry and the sauce was average. The veggies were soaked in oil and appeared to be the frozen kind you throw in a saucepan. My husband is not a very picky eater, but even he agreed he would never come back. We should have trusted our instincts and celebrated at the places we know are good...Lucille's, Cheesecake Factory, GVR Cafe or even Al's Garage (bar food) put this place to shame. Don't waste your time... And now I know why such a 'high class' place puts out so many coupons. This place was also totally overpriced for the quality...my meal alone was $17+ and I only ate probably a third of it.
