Elise's Eatery - Crescent City, California

Marissa C.

We were so impressed by the food here. Our expectations were pretty high based on all the 5 star reviews we read previously, but honestly it exceeded our expectations.

The burger was smoky, juicy, the bacon crispy. The chicken tenders were some of the most tender and juicy we've ever had. The Mac and cheese is definitely homemade and the coleslaw is delicious. Make sure you try a biscuit with the blueberry compote (if available), it's basically like dessert with your meal. The cheesecake was soooo delicious to round it all up.

The service was some of the best we've experienced. It's a 2-man show but they do such a phenomenal job and are so friendly. They make sure everything is just how you like it. It has the feel of eating at a close friend or family members, who also happens to be a professional chef.

Definitely would recommend checking out Elise's Eatery while in Crescent City.

Are you wondering why this spot has so many 5 star reviews? So was I, so I took my girlfriend to see if it's a fad, hype or the real deal. Now I'm writing a 5 star review. The Pacific Northwest has lots of amazing restaurants, and this is one of them. Cuisine, service and decor are all excellent. Plus, it's just a short walk from the Tesla Supercharger. Servings are big so stop here hungry.

BEST burger joint in town! Super friendly and passionate staff, and amazing service!! You have to try the desserts… almost as good as the Redwood burger!!

Best burger I've ever eaten. The Redwood Burger made with avocado, bacon, cheese, and more) that I ordered here was probably the best burger I've ever eaten. The curly fries were served hot and stayed hot for most of the meal.
The service was amazing and attentive. I can highly recommend Elises Eatery.

I usually avoid leaving reviews because I hate the idea of standing in long lines or struggling to get a table at my favorite spots. But it would be a shame not to give Elise’s Eatery and their staff the recognition they deserve. I’d give them 10 stars if I could!

While I stayed outside with our dog in the spacious parking lot across the street, my wife and kids went in to order. The lady working there was exceptionally nice and welcoming, according to my wife.

I had the Western Burger, and it was phenomenal—juicy on the inside, crispy on the outside, and perfectly balanced with sauces and toppings. It’s easily one of the top 5 burgers I’ve ever had. The onion rings were also outstanding. My wife raved about her club sandwich, and even our picky eaters polished off everything on their plates.

If you find yourself in Crescent City and are craving a top-notch meal, Elise’s Eatery is an absolute must-visit. We’ll definitely be returning the next time we’re in the area! Apologies for the quality of the photos—I was juggling the dog and eating on the tailgate.

We were in town for a trip and decided to try Elise’s due to their ratings online and I’m so glad we did. We believe the owner was the one who took our order and brought our food and she was so very kind! The food was delicious and the portions very generous. I had to let the owner know that the service she provides is top notch and is something you don’t see too often nowadays. If we lived in the area we would certainly be regulars. I wish we would've gotten her name so that I could properly refer to her, but we wish her and her business the very very best and we hope to visit her again soon!!

This place is beyond 5 stars! We stopped here during our road trip after reading reviews about the best burger ever. The prices are reasonable, and the food is incredibly good. My only mistake was sharing the burger with my husband—it's too good to share! Additionally, the service was exceptional, and the place is very nice and clean. I would come back anytime. The fries taste like real potatoes, and the burgers are to die for!

Must try place!! 20/10!!! This was an excellent choice especially for picky eaters! All of the food was so delicious and satisfying. My husband said their housemade ranch is the best ranch he's had since the 80s! Their burger was a huge patty and the cheese was melted perfectly and they were just fine with adjustments. The chicken strips were so huge and good that we all were jealous of our son's kid's tenders meal. We were glad he let us have a bite. Both the fries and curly fries were delicious, too. My Club Sandwich was so fresh and huge and yummy. The bacon was thick and there were 2 kinds of cheese on it. It was definitely one of the best I've ever had.

The service was stellar! Kjirsten was friendly yet professional and patient with us having to deal with our challenging young human. At the end, she gave us the best Raising Good Human Discount ever, which made our night.

The whole place was clean, including the restrooms. Even the soap smelled amazing! We were too full for dessert since their portions are so huge, but the desserts looked phenomenal. We will definitely be back whenever in Crescent City!
