Absolutely incredible experience at Elaine’s Cocktail Kitchen! First of all, the location is beautiful. It has such a great atmosphere that feels both upscale and relaxed. But what really blew me away was the food. Amy, the chef, is extremely talented. You can tell she pours her heart into every dish. I had the horchata French toast, and let me tell you, I’m a total French toast snob and this was hands down the best one I’ve ever had. Perfectly fluffy, flavorful, and unique with that horchata twist. I also tried the espresso martini, and as someone who’s also very picky about those, it was soooo good, creamy, smooth, and the perfect balance of espresso and sweetness. Everything from start to finish was amazing. You can really feel the love and creativity behind this place. 10/10, can’t

Elaine’s Cocktail Kitchen is my new favorite brunch spot in town. Their French press coffee is perfection, the fresh squeezed juice reminds me of European cafes, the quiche and salads are always fresh, the smoked salmon tartine, and cannoli crepes I haven’t tasted anything in Frisco that tops them… and they’ll even whip up a charcuterie board when you’re in a pinch. Friendly staff, gorgeous decor, and every detail feels intentional. Classy, elegant, and effortlessly welcoming.

A Surprising Culinary gem with a View! With a name like Elaine's Cocktail Kitchen, we were anticipating a great bar scene but we were pleasantly surprised to discover the wonderful dinner venue they offer.

We started the evening with cocktails while we perused the menu. For an appetizer, we chose the Caviar and Chips, which was a delightful and luxurious start to our meal. For the main course, I ordered the 6 oz Angus beef filet with blue cheese butter. It was an excellent cut of meat and cooked to perfection. The filet was accompanied by delicious crushed marble potatoes and fresh tomato salad, which complemented the rich

Elaine’s Cocktail Kitchen is truly exceptional. I’ve traveled all over, and living in Frisco it’s incredibly hard to find a place like this. This has become my place—the one I return to again and again. The quality of the food is outstanding. Every dish feels thoughtful and intentional, from the freshness of the ingredients to the way it’s presented. The cocktails are handcrafted with precision and care, easily some of the best I’ve had in DFW. What truly sets Elaine’s apart is the level of intention behind every move—from the customer service to the intimate, inviting atmosphere. You can feel that nothing is rushed and nothing is overlooked. It’s rare, and it’s special.
