You should remove The Elbow Room from Tableagent.com they have no access to online reservations only ones made by calls so I actually had No Reservation when I arrived at the restaurant.

food was mediocre and our server seemed to forget about us at times. place was clean but kind of shabby for example the finish on the tables was very worn. bathroom had no paper towels to wipe hands after washing and no lock on the door which also did not shut completely.

The hostess was quite rude and my reservation wasn’t found. Other than that, our waitress was sweet and the food was great.

We attempted to sit on rooftop patio but kept getting bothered by hornets flying around. We finally moved downstairs to indoor dining room; which wasn’t very cool on this warm summer evening. The nachos appetizer was sparingly topped with “all the fixings”. It had chunked chicken, cheese, jalapeño, small side of sour cream & salsa verde. Missing olives, cilantro, salsa, beans. The turkey sandwich was dry. My shroom burger and the Mac & cheese was fine. The frozen cocktails were quite expense , $13-15, for the amount you receive. Staff was accommodating with our table change, very pleasant and attentive.
