My husband and I decided at the last moment to go out for supper and found this gem. The food was excellent and artfully plated, the service was amazing and loved the ambiance. Going to go back soon to try more items from their menu very soon..
My husband and I celebrated our 21st anniversary last night and definitely enjoyed it! The atmosphere was very "french quaint". The food was delicious and very well priced for the type of cuisine that is served. Danny was charming and very accommodating to our "anniversary candle tradition". I will definitely return and bring friends. Thank you for a lovely evening! �
I found elixir's bistro to be one of the most fascinating resturants I've been to in Cambridge. The head chef is really talented with his plating and his combinations and fuision style. I would highly recommend Elixirs bistro to anyone who wants a great dinning experience, service from the servers and it's food it's good for the whole family, friends, dates and to bring your kids. Found his restaurant very affordable in comparison to other fine dinning restaurants.
I will say. It was a fantastic little French restaurant. Atmosphere was great. Danny the server was great. And the food was awesome. I've already spread the word about how good it was. We will return
