The Blue Elephant Pottstown

This has been on my list for sometime. Happy to have finally ✅ this box. Can't wait to go back! Tempura broccoli is highly recommended. I had the sea bass (honey sauce is incredible), our friend had the chicken teriyaki, and my wife had the pork chop. The seasoned crust on the pork chop was a bit too salty, but you could trim that edge off and still enjoy something delicious. I don't live close by but I can assure you I'll be back. There is street parking, so it should be easy to find a spot. Service was great. Kitchen was a little slow but not a big deal. Clearly the building was a bank in it's former life, but the renovations are very well done. Even though the place was packed it wasn't too loud. Oh you must try the beer bread. It's fantastic

I would recommend the cheesesteak egg rolls to get as an appetizer and then the pastas for an entree 😍 staff is SO amazing and friendly . I did like the umami fries and ramen too but the pastas and gnocchi is just perfect. Cocktail menu isn’t extensive but are by far the best tasting around . The inside is beyond aesthetic and makes for a perfect outing. I’m obsessed .

We dined as a group of ten on a Friday evening. The space had a chic, upscale vibe with a lively ambiance that set the tone nicely. One unusual aspect was being asked to place both our appetizer and entrée orders simultaneously, which felt a bit rushed. Service at the table was average, and unfortunately, most of the cocktails didn’t quite hit the mark. That said, the food more than made up for it. Highlights from our spread included shrimp fried rice, drunken noodles, pork chop, branzino stew, crispy wings, dumplings, and a sushi platter served in a charming little boat. The sushi and drunken noodles were standouts—packed with flavor and beautifully executed. We also tried the Hokkaido bread, which was perfectly done and a delightful finish to the meal.

We go for happy hour and it's amazing. $8 craft cocktails, and $6 spicy tuna, spicy salmon, and yellow tail rolls. They are very conscious about food allergies which is fantastic as I have gluten intolerance. I was able to get the rolls gluten free and they had gluten free soy sauce on hand as well. Will highly recommend

Have come here a few times now. The food is good but was disappointed in the menu change, no longer having mushroom dumplings. Have gotten things I really like here. The drinks are sort of a miss for me overall. The flavors just never seem to work for me. I also feel like every time I go here it is very cold. The air is cold and the overall vibe is a little cold if that makes sense, because the building is very open since it was an old bank. I totally get that, I just think more heat is needed. Went for my birthday this last time and it was a bit more lack luster than expected, somehow a lady next to me also had a birthday and she got more attention and detail it seemed, especially in her dessert. It was a good meal but felt less special than going to my original restaurant pick. The staf
