The whole meal was excellent! The mushroom appetizer is top-shelf: perfectly sautéed, rich cream sauce with the subtle acidic bite of the capers, and the well-seasoned sausage was mild enough to not overpower the dish. A must order!
The smoked pork chop was also spot-on. The charred edges of the smoked chop with the truffle cream sauce is a winning flavor combination. Impressive cookery.

Our meal and dining experience at Parlour 1886 was great! Steaks were tender and flavorful and the salmon was delicious. The cheesy corn side dish and the oven roasted tomato topped with bread crumbs was a treat! Service was timely and courteous. The ambience of the restaurant and the Historic Elgin Hotel is outstanding!

We were promptly seated. The table was fine but a bit small and cramped. One by a window would have been nicer and we were right under the music tv which was a bit loud. The server came quickly and took our order accurately even with gluten free requirements. The salads were very good with excellent dressing. The steak was tender and had a good flavor. The salmon was grilled well but could have taken a touch more seasoning. Green beans were fine but a bit on the crunchy side. Baked potato was standard good. Wines were good. The death by chocolate dessert was an “out of the ballpark home run”! Wow! Overall- a wonderful, memorable experience. An easy way to step up your game, however, would be if all servers and hostesses would wear more formal attire. Black pants/white or black shirts. They don’t all have to be the exact same style to cut down on cost just a touch more formal. Best wishes for great success! We’d love to come again and bring friends next time.

We loved our evening at Parlour 1886. The ambiance was incredible and relaxing. We had a party of six, but, our meals were cooked to perfection. Most of us had steaks. Yummy!! Salads with our dinners were really good too, and the truffle fries were fantastic. They did run out of carrot cake, darn!!! We will definitely be back to try it!

Our group of 8 women was treated to a delightful dinner! We were not rushed and allowed to enjoy our wine and appetizers leisurely! Our dinners were very delicious and our special birthday carrot cake was an unexpected surprise! Being in our own room was perfect and we all enjoyed wonderful conversations and food and drinks! Thank you to our server for being so accommodating and so attentive to our needs throughout the evening!

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and evening at The Parlour. We both had the smothered pork chop and commented to each other that it was probably the best and most tender pork chop we've ever had. The carrot cake was delicious and topped off the meal!

Once we began eating it was delicious. This was easily our best experience so far! Thank you very much!

Bread was not fresh, tasted greasy from the grill. Green beans overcooked. Steaks very good..but too much salt. Twice baked potato was dry. Server handled other folks' water glasses and then ours...covid transmission no-no. Husband got sick in middle of night after the meal (no other food intake...) Server picked a lady's face mask off the floor and handed it to her...then handled food without washing hands. Covid and common sense...high risk.

What a beautiful hotel and restaurant. I a true gem in a small Kansas community. The service and food were great; the 8 instead of a 10 was mainly because I'm a bit picky on cheesy hashbrowns--the presentation of them was a bit understated. The Carrot Cake waffle, sausage filled crepes and the full breakfast were yummy. We couldn't resist trying the Carrot Cake either and it was all that we had hoped for! We will be back soon.

Everything was perfect, EXCEPT the Television. We planned an evening away from home so we could just relax and watch our NBC and ABC shows and received NOTHING. It was very disappointing to us and even 'tho we loved everything else we will probably NOT come again because of the television situation!!!!
