Elle was created with the intention to pay homage to all that is maternal, womanly and goddess-like in each of our lives, past present and future. Elle is a universal interchangeable word that simply means "her". We created this space to acknowledge that through food and great company. Our Chef has created our menu with this in mind, as well as selecting and using only the freshest and brightest ingredients for his dishes. Everything is from scratch, and more importantly, made with love. We are thrilled to have you experience Elle. There is always room for one more at our table!

Christopher took care of us really well. Despite being arguably one of the best steak stops in Cleveland? We went for the seafood tower. Mac n cheese side and a chicken spring roll app. Food was incredible, everyone was attentive and the ambiance was superb. Honourable mention: the bananas foster desert is table made and done so beautifully. 10/10

We had the salmon blackened and the prime rib. Both dishes were very good, especially the salmon. Cheesecake for dessert with chocolate topping was nice ending to meal. Piano music by Stephen plus the Christmas decorations made for a wonderful ambiance. This is our 3rd Christmas Eve visit and hope to continue this tradition.
