   Exquisite service from start to finish. Food was excellent Definitely Michelin star quality. Duck breast and venison were cooked to perfection. Very tender and so many flavours. High standards all round. First visit and will definitely return Highly recommended!

   Our second visit to this lovely restaurant, this time with our younger son and his partner. Another enjoyable evening, absolutely faultless.

   As usual food and service excellent - had the lunchtime tasting menu and it was perfect. It finished on a real taste of xmas with the Date sponge.

    So, having a Michelin star, gives a restaurant an obvious credence, so when I wanted to take a special someone somewhere special, this was the obvious choice. We booked about 2 months in advance using OpenTable which was effortless and waited for the big day. We hyped it up so much in our heads so when the day finally arrived, we were positively buzzing. Neither of us had been before and so were very much looking forward to it. From the second we walked in the door, the experience was like everything we had hyped in our heads and so much more. The service was exemplary, the location and setting were beautiful but didn't feel formal or stuffy in anyway, it was all very relaxed. We were given the most beautiful sourdough bread and butters to start which just kicked off the next 2 hours of the most incredible food I have ever eaten. Every single mouthful was the best food I have ever eaten. Every mouthful was savoured and enjoyed before taking the next. The staff were attentive but never intrusive and every single one was friendly and knowledgeable. To say I would recommend The Elephant would be the literal understatement of the year. If you get the chance, I guarantee you will not be disappointed. Is it more expensive on the face of it than other places in the bay? Yes it is BUT you cannot compare them. For what may possibly the best meal you ever experience, it is a small price to pay..
