My husband and son and I decided to stop here for lunch one Monday. We arrived just after 12pm. Sat down, had our drinks and food order taken and my little boy needed to use the toilet. My husband took him to the public toilets which to his utter disgust where completely blocked and disgustingly dirty. He then tried to take him to the restaurant toilets and they where pretty much the same! Could not use them. He alerted a member of staff and it wasn’t even acknowledged and I took him to the female restaurant toilets which where not as bad but had definitely not been cleaned. We again spoke to what was meant to be a young girl duty manager. Her response was oh the cleaners mustn’t have been i...
Dined here as a party of eight and made the right choice! Modern, bright, clean and comfortable restaurant. Menu to cover all tastes and very competitively priced. Best of all was the friendliness of the servers! We were all made to feel special by staff who showed real appreciation for our custom. Main courses ordered included stir fry combo, steak, chicken all cooked to perfection, served piping hot and almost simultaneously. Good portion sizes. Desserts included apple crumble, ice cream mix and meringue. Washed down by Guinness, lager, wine and soft drinks. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. The bill made our spend extremely good value. Already planning a return visit!
The restaurant has lovely staff and a nice atmosphere, but the food does not justify the high prices. Despite the sparsely occupied bistro on a Saturday afternoon, the quality of the food was disappointing. The wine selection was limited to Chilean options, but the server mentioned they are updating the list. We opted for a bottle of reasonably priced Rioja instead. Despite nostalgic memories of great food from a decade ago, our meal (including steak, duck, kids pizza, and salt chili chicken) left all four of us unimpressed and unlikely to return.
A group of 30 of us stopped by The Elk restaurant on 8.9.22 while on our way to Belfast for a show. We had pre-selected our menu choices and were impressed by the attentive service we received. The staff paid close attention to our dietary needs and provided excellent service. The experience was delightful, with friendly and welcoming staff who demonstrated a strong understanding of customer service and hospitality. We had no complaints - the food was delicious, reasonably priced, and plentiful. We highly recommend this restaurant! Book a table now
Family restaurant I don't think so sectarian music played over full restaurant and when complained solution was to close the door to the bar! We live in the 21 century not the 1980! I thought the elk would have learnt lessons over the overpacked teenage disco but as we seen they think they can do whatever they want. Disgusting behaviour in this day and age.. did the wolftones not get into police investigation over these types of songs and encouraging people to sing along as they were in the bar and band asking them to do so
Couldn't fault our experience today at all. The Elk hosted our party attending the MADMC Targa Rally. Lovely friendly atmosphere staff. Restaurant/bar was pleasantly warm from early morning, right throughout the day (on a very bitter cold day) We availed of breakfast, lunch and dinner, all of which was served fresh and piping hot in no time at all but most importantly all was really delicious!! Will definitely make a point of making a returned visit with family friends again soon!
I never put any reviews on my page at all but I was absolutely disgusted today. Went to The Elk @Toomebridge for dinner. The food was beautiful so I can't complain about that. On arrival the place was very busy and they had Irish music which was fine, But what I thought was totally unacceptable was they then started to play OH AH UP THE RA
Visited here recently to use a voucher the wife got and I have to say we were very impressed, we enjoyed our meal and staff were very good, we will definitely come back Book a table now
I haven't been to this restaurant in a while, but the value, service, and food were all excellent. We will definitely be returning. Thank you!
