ELEM is a new restaurant and cocktail lab on Main + 5th.

Guests can expect to indulge in Top Chef Canada alum Mayekar’s bold cooking, featuring creative flavour-packed dishes that highlight the unique spices from cuisines around the world with local ingredients, alongside Winnie Sun’s inventive, element-inspired and sustainability-driven cocktails.

ELEM’s food menu is an exploration of flavours and spices from all corners of the world, including Bangkok, California, Spain, Mexico, Italy, and Mumbai – all inspired by Mayekar’s extensive travels and Indian heritage. There will also be a big focus on local BC-grown ingredients.

The 2,946 square foot, 76-seat space was designed by Vancouver-based Marko Simcich Architect and features three dining spaces and an open window into the kitchen to see the chefs at work.

    Great time at Elem! Menu can be more cohesive in terms of thought, but the food does taste good. Inventive cocktails and story behind each drink. Great service throughout especially Supi!

    We had a wonderful experience and felt warmly welcomed throughout our visit. The space was inviting, and we truly enjoyed our time there. The food was delicious and hearty—on the heavier side, fasting-wise—but very satisfying. The cocktails were excellent and thoughtfully crafted. Toward the end of the evening, it did feel a bit chilly, and one of our drinks was forgotten, but overall, we appreciated the attentive service and the cool, vibrant ambiance.
