Elements Restaurant - Vancouver (WA)

5 /5 Kacie: We had the most wonderful experience dining here! The food was absolutely phenomenal. Every dish was full of rich flavor and beautifully presented. The service was equally fabulous; the staff was warm, attentive, and made us feel so welcome from the moment we walked in. We were celebrating a birthday, and they truly went above and beyond. A handwritten birthday card waiting on the table when we arrived was such a thoughtful and personal touch. To top it off, the crème brûlée we enjoyed for dessert was delicious, perfectly creamy with that classic crisp caramelized top. Overall, an exceptional evening from start to finish. Highly recommend for any special occasion or a memorable night out!

5 /5 Innovations Kiwi (Bigfoot Exteriors): I recently read on facebook that many peoples favorite place in vancouver was Elements, so i decided to try it out for my birthday. Elevated menu, if you love both veggies and meats especially, such an amazing balance of flavors. I have never heard my husband say "complex flavors" before tonight, he is usually a standard meat and potatoes man - we went for my birthday, but its now his favorite restaraunt. Try the drinks with beets and carrots in them, you will be so pleasantly surprised. The main dishes sound intense - maybe they dont sound good at all on paper, but they WORK. And they will blow your mind when you taste them. Its a small staff, be patient, its absolutely worth it.

5 /5 Richard Wardell: I tried to describe this place to someone and couldn’t quite find a category for it. It has the hallmarks of European fine dining with beautiful plating and complex flavors, yet also offers the generous portions you would expect from a traditional American restaurant. The menu has something for both adventurous and conservative palates, which makes it especially approachable. The melon and prosciutto appetizer was outstanding. The prosciutto was the most authentic I have had in America, and the melon was perfectly ripe. It was paired with a chili flake vinaigrette that balanced the sweet and salty elements beautifully. The New York steak was incredible, perfectly cooked, generously portioned, and well seasoned. The sauce really put it over the top for me. It was rich and flavorful, and the compound butter and cream mellowed out the black pepper’s heat. The pork chop was also fantastic, served with a sweet apple chutney that had a warm chili flake kick, rounding out each bite. We finished with the creme brulee, accompanied by slices of caramelized banana. It was the perfect dessert to wrap up a great birthday dinner. Thank you to our wonderful waitress, Amber (I hope I remembered correctly), who made the evening special and even checked with Chef Sosa about a flavor in the sauce I couldn’t quite identify. Element is truly a hidden gem in Vancouver that delivers a dining experience well above its price point.

5 /5 Rebecca Hemmen: We went here for our anniversary and loved it! Think fine dining, but normal portion sizes. For an appetizer, we ordered the steak tartare, which was served with bone marrow. For the entree, I order the Muscovy duck breast, and my husband ordered the Gochujang Roasted King Salmon. Both were absolutely delicious! The service was also lovely and we fully enjoyed our experience dining here. Didn’t get many photos because we got too busy eating, so here is my partially eaten entree for reference! We will be returning.

5 /5 Rachel Briscoe: This was one of the best meals Ive ever had out! Everything was packed with flavor, filling, texturally satisfying, and exceeded my expectations. Pictured are the "wheres the beet" mocktail, beet salad, salmon, and apple purse with ice cream. Everyone was super friendly and attentive as well! The tables are cute and unique, and its right near a bus stop.
