    Elephante was the ideal setting today for a table outside in the sun facing the Pacific Ocean. Staff were welcoming, professional , and knowledgeable about the menu choices. So many tempting menu items. The Shrimp Appetizer was perfectly grilled with a lively, spicy sauce. DELISH! Enjoyed the pizza with Pork, Proscuito, and Honey. Thin crust with lots of flavors. The Bloody Mary came with attractive garnishes and the Arnold Palmers were expertly mixed. Tiramisu was very fresh and tasty. All in all a PERFECTO lunch. Can't wait to return.
