I love Elaine's for many reasons. Its the go to restaurant if you want some authentic Jamaican food. I've been patronizing them since I moved from Dallas from Miami. When they were at the other location by the theater. I've never had any complaints because the food has always been and still is *chef's kiss. But TODAY I called in my order. Which is something I've never done. It took me 20 minutes to get there which is why I called it in. I get there and had to wait another 15-20 minutes to get my food. But I didn't trip. I assumed it was going to be fresh out the pot since it wasn't already plated and bagged up when I got there. When I saw the cook put a container of food in the microwave after I waited as long as I did, I was highly disappointed. I wouldn't have minded that if my food was getting cold because I took so long to pick it up after I called in. But why did I have to wait so long if all y'all had to do was stick it in the microwave for 30 seconds before giving it to me? Not to mention, I don't microwave my food PERIOD because it dries it out. But yeah, that's my review. I still encourage people to go there because it's authentic and the girls that work there are nice and its a chill environment.
