    This place is always excellent. Huge selection of comfort food options. Large portions, well prepared and presented. Attentive, polite service. We had the fried pork cutlet and the almond crusted whitefish. Both outstanding.

    Food was excellent. However service was not great. Nothing terrible but not up to LEYE standards. Water glasses were dirty. Ordered salad with blue cheese on the side. Salad came covered with blue cheese. Waiter brought a new salad, half the size of the first salad and no blue cheese on the side. Had to ask for refills of water and drinks. Brought ribs without steak knives

    Although we always enjoy L. Woods, this time was extra good. Food was perfect, seating quick, and Gigi was a fabulous server. Great evening! P.S. the special dessert - the apple cranberry cobbler, was amazing! In addition thank you for supporting a cancer organization!

    I've been eating at Elwood's for at least 10 years. The quality of the food is always consistently high and a good value. The service is always friendly, knowledgeable and willing to accommodate.
