Came in on a Sunday afternoon expecting a good meal, not having been there before. What we experienced was TERRIBLE. 1/2 empty restaurant and was ignored at the front hostess bar for over 5 minutes. They then took our name and said it would be another few minutes to be seated! But they suggested we go to the bar to eat. We sat ourselves down at a table that was filthy, service from a weary waitress who clearly didn't want to be there and waited again for 10 minutes before an order could be placed. Food was so-so and prices were ok. I would however have been really disappointed if I had ordered a $20+steak, as my burger was lack luster. Overall, I'd suggest skipping it. Its really not worth going. I'd suggest an Applebee's or Outback instead. What a waste of my day off :(

Last night we took our two teenage sons to dinner and were completly disapointed. The prices have gone up and now you must pay for a salad for your dinner. I realize that costs are going up but the quality of the food has went down tremendously. I ordered tri tip and half of it was fat and could not eat it.We debated about going to Olive Garden or Roadhouse and afterwards we realized we made a huge mistake. Don't think we will go back.
I've eaten at this Elmer's location dozens of times and the only problem I've ever had was a new waitress there got our order wrong. Other than that, the staff is friendly and the food is good and well priced.
one bad thing after another. saw a roach run across the floor out of the food areaand toldthe manager he said he was sure itwas just a mistake my husband showed himwere he steppedon it and said no mistake. we left well not be back

Good old boy steakhouse. Peanuts on the floor, line dancing and country music blaring. This is suprisingly famly style.
Grand salads come w/dinner (almost too much) all toppings including cheese and real thick bacon bits. Honey butter rolls probono. Good beer, and wine. Mixed drinks are large and strong.They have 2 areas, one for daters and another for families and large group.
Ther can be a wait especially on Fri/Sat evenings. Expect an hour long wait. We've had no trouble entertaining our 2 year old for and hour. the kitchen grill has glass so the kidos can view the grilling and flames. The music and people dancing begs your children to sing and join in. and as many peanuts as you can eat are available. mine like to stomp on all the shells.
