The location, ambiance and setting are spectacular. One of the best in the valley. Over the years I have visited Elements perhaps 30 times or so, and the one thing that it has been lately is very inconsistent . The food is usually good and well presented. Where the place falls short is on the easiest part of the job SERVICE, SERVICE AND SERVICE. Visited there last night and the service was the worst we have had ( horrible)the waitress looked like she should have been cleaning floors . Staff walked around not refilling water or wine glasses, the bread was awful , the butter a piece of ice and we had to ask for it. The waitress had an attitude, we ordered multiple appetizers and they all showed up at once. Not sure why I even left a tip, hopefully the 10% got someone's attention. They always seem to be in a rush to get people out of there , we were seated and done in 1.5 hours and $400.
It's really too bad and it will be a long time before they see me again. I suggest management train their staff and get rid of ones with attitude.
Clean up your act folks , appearances only go so far.
