The Eleanor Room

Really nice upscale, but yet down to earth restaurant. The food is delicious- our table shared all plates and loved everything we ordered. Sliders, bacon wrapped dates, garlic and pickle flatbread- surprisingly delish.,fried cauliflower, brussel sprouts, hush puppies. The sauces served underneath or alongside each item complicated each dish so well. I know we tasted more- but can't remember it all.The drinks are wonderful. The owner has a penchant for tequila- so they are well versed in tequila. Hubby had a tequila old fashioned that was so smooth- he had two.... (And a smile on his face all night).Dirty martini's were wonderful and us ladies enjoyed those too!

The Eleanor Room is elegant. The lighting stages a nice place to have a date. My husband and I came in on Sunday. I'm not sure if it's just because it was Sunday or if this is the norm. We got seated. Had a chance to look over the drink menu and when I ordered I was told they were out of basil. No biggie, I got lavender lemon drop instead. It was good but very sweet. My husband ordered a double jack and coke. And we put in our apps and entrees.After about 20 minutes our drinks were gone, no apps insight but our conversation was good so we weren't too bothered. We ordered another drink and then our apps came. So about 25 minutes after we ordered. We got the rosemary and honeycomb butter board. And the hush puppies. I wish there were more pickled tomatoes with the hush puppies. They were super fried. They were tough to put a fork in. They had nice flavor though. The butter board was miss leading. We were under the impression we were going to get actual chunk of honey comb but instead it just came in the shape of a honeycomb. We packaged up the apps and entrees came and shortly after that our second drink. Someone did come back to ask if we wanted another drink but it was in the works. We got The Eleanor, Oscar style. It was pretty disappointing. Our medium filet came out pretty rare and with little to no seasoning. We couldn't find the Bernaise sauce. And the twice baked potato was a half potatoe with no seasoning and cheese and sour cream on the side. Maybe we caught them on an off night. Bummer as it's close to our house and has an upscale vibe. We still had a good time and we could tell our server was nervous as she had to explain all the last minute menu changes. We get things happen. But we aren't in a rush to come back.

I had brunch at The Eleanor Room, and it was a fantastic experience! The interior is very cute and exudes French vintage vibes, making it a lovely place to enjoy a meal. Their menu features a lot of classic brunch items, though it is more breakfast-focused with no real lunch options.The portion sizes were generous, and the food was even better. I got the shakshuka, and it was incredibly fresh and flavorful. The staff was very friendly, and we discovered that they offer 250 kinds of tequila. So, if you love tequila, this is definitely the place for you!

Beautiful little gem in historic Greendale! We made a reservation for a Tuesday evening-although the restaurant was mostly empty, most of us were seated in close proximity to each other. We were greeted by our lovely server, our drink orders came out promptly. We were offered the daily amuse bouche-cucumber topped with a salmon salad-tasty & refreshing way to start our meal. We ordered a few things to share-the dill pickle flatbread was good, but in my opinion not "pickley" enough. The beet salad was fresh & light. The pierogies were good, but not the best I've ever had. We ended the meal with an egg nog tiramisu which was decadent. All in all, we enjoyed our visit & will be back to try other menu items!

The ambiance of this place was great. The moody walls, gorg bar, great music. Unfortunately the food was not good. Bland, under seasoned, and wildly underwhelming. I'd come back for drinks with friends but definitely won't be choosing to dine here for brunch again.

Upon arrival, they didn't seem to have our reservation correct. Then, we were seated fairly quickly. However, We waited 15 mins at the table and finally we asked someone if we had a server. They checked and came back to say "I'm sorry, I'm your server, but I didn't know I was". We ordered an appetizer and it was delicious. However, we sat with dirty plates for 20 minutes after that until we finally asked for the plates to be removed. When our food was ordered, we ended up sending my meal (chicken and waffles) back bc the chicken was grey. Which means it's spoiled. The waffle Benedict had no flavor which my partner got. Between the awful service and the poor quality of food, we will not be back. The table next to us had the same thing situation- concerns with their food and returned all their food and then left. The manager never bothered to speak to us to apologize for serving us food that will likely make us sick. Very disappointed.

First time here with another couple. One person was having a birthday. We had reservations and were seated right away. They had placed a Happy Birthday placard on the table with a card signed by the staff. Nice touch. The dining area was half filled, noisy, but manageable for a conversation. Our server got to us right away. Was super friendly, and gave us plenty of help with the drink and food menus. We got a few glasses of wine. I had the Bon Bon Martini. All the drinks were good, but the Martini was a bit of a gooey mess (not a huge deal). We ordered a couple appetizers, and the each of us ordered our own entree (not tapas style, this is an important distinction, read on). The two entrees, brussel sprouts, and frites came out in good time, were hot, and well seasoned. The portions were small, and we each got a small taste. The Entrees of Trout, Eleanor (tenderloin), Short Rib Risotto, and Sliders all came out together. They were all wam, with good portions, and well seasoned. However, both the tenderloin, and the sliders were poorly cooked. Tenderloin was undercooked, and the sliders were overcooked. My slides were supposed to be medium rare. If it had just been the two of us, I would have sent them back. Ended up getting dessert, the Eggnog Tiramisu. That was very good. The experience was mixed. The atmosphere is nice, the service was very good. The cooked meats were a big disappointment. Perhaps ordering tapas style, and having plates come individually, as they are finished, would have achieved better results. There are plenty of good restaurants to choose from. Don't think Eleanors will be on my return list.

We went on Thursday January 30th for a pop-up of Lemonyay. Food was perfect, decor was adorable, and Cameron the server was very attentive. Will definitely be back and have talked highly to friends about this place.

We stopped in with a party of four with reservations. We loved the feel and the decor walking in. Cool arrangements at the bar, Neat table layouts, and retro-ish materials were used. They made a great setup with the small-ish space they're given to work with there. If anyone has been in the building before with prior restaurants, you likely know what I'm talking about. It was neat stopping in there because I felt like I had stepped back in time.We sat down and checked out the menus, and there were many great-looking things to try! The food came out quickly, though the bar was backed up.They're at the soft open stage, so please don't expect perfection. They were incredibly busy for dinner, with every seat filled shortly after our arrival, and if you're expecting perfection, they will need some time to get into the rhythms of Greendale.We all had sharables and drinks and no entrees. The shareables were really fun to try. Maybe a weird thing to mention, but it would be nice to have the quantities listed or make them consistent. You get the tacos, and there are three, meaning someone isn't having one. Get the burgers, three. Get the eggs, four, mushrooms, three. They're really not big enough to split/share, depending on what you get. Like tacos, you won't take the three and split it four ways. But, if you have two people in your group, you could arm wrestle for the last one or perform the Lady and the Tramp spaghetti technique, each taking a side, and that would work.I liked the black-and-white outfits the staff wore (all the ones I saw), and they all had wonderful attitudes and smiles, no exceptions.All the Old Fashioneds we got were great, and the drink glasses and water glasses they came in were classic. Sweet Marie was also a great drink to try.Stuffed Cremini Mushrooms had a wonderful taste to them, and Deviled Egg Duo had a bold pickle flavor with which I was pleasantly surprised. Pork and Pickles, stellar - you should save the honey glaze and dunk the sliders in there!Ahi Tuna Tacos have nice flavor profiles to them, albeit small; the jalaneño and cilantro is a nice touch.Smash Patty Sliders Three Ways was probably the table favorite, and you can't go wrong with getting them, especially if you have kids you want to bring along.The Flatbread with the dill and pickles was strangely dynamite. If you give me ten of them to make a pizza, I'm going to take it down all by myself. Seriously, maybe collaborate with Ricardo's!? Sooo good!We will absolutely be back to sample more of their menu items! Thanks for a wonderful night, Eleanor Room staff!

Go for drinks but don't bother eating. Super cute vibe though the food isn't up to par. Left disappointed in a date night.
