    We were there for my birthday dinner last night, food was excellent and the waitress was very friendly and accommodating. The only thing I did not like were the little bowls the sauce came in, when you poured the sauce it spilled over the sides and made a mess, the servers did not say which sauce was which and they were mixed up. Other diners were cold although it was the middle of summer and had heaters in which was uncomfortable for me. The food is excellent although some things I thought were a bit pricey. Overall it was an enjoyable night and the tomahawk steak was delicious so were the chicken wings!

    I've been to the other Elements restaurants in Darlinghurst and Pyrmont. This evening my friend and I wanted to try the Tomahawk steak and Tommy margarita deal, and decided to go to Walsh Bay. My experience at these restaurants thus far has been consistent. Great food, great atmosphere (especially at Walsh Bay where the views and decor are on another level) and excellent service. Tonight, Nico took our order and made sure we enjoyed our dinner and time at the venue. We ordered an entree of Buffalo Calamari to go with our tomahawk. Recommend! The tomahawk steak was incredible not only in its size but texture and flavour. It melts in your mouth! They take it out and finish preparing and cutting it at your table for added theatrics. This didn't affect me, but if you have dietary requirements, it seems like they are more than happy to accommodate your needs. Overall, I really enjoyed my time and will definitely be coming back.
