The Elms - Excelsior Springs

The restaurant is now named Three Owls at The Elms, and my experience was very disappointing. I ordered a filet for $48, and it was tough and dry. The sides are all à la carte; I chose the $8 mashed potatoes, which were only warm at best and clearly instant. My husband ordered the pork chop for $42, which he said was very good. He also tried the chef's risotto for $12 that was supposed to include apple and rosemary, but it had nothing in it at all. We won’t be returning to this restaurant the next time we’re in town.

I had a wonderful breakfast and ordered the avocado benedict, which was delicious. My family opted for the buffet, and there were plenty of gluten-free options available to accommodate dietary restrictions. We dined in, and I would say that the price per person ranged from $20 to $30. Overall, it was a great experience!

We absolutely loved the banquet room; it was perfect for our large group! The wait staff was incredibly kind and attentive, which made our event truly enjoyable!

Our cousin visited from Texas, so we decided to have dinner at the 88. Everyone enjoyed their meals, the service was great, and our waitress was very attentive. Overall, it was a wonderful experience.
