Hotel restaurant. First time here. Plenty of off street parking. Classy decor and comfortable seating. Looks like you can wear casual or dress up. Waitresses wear a Tshirt and jeans so don’t stress what you wear. Good for large parties. Takes reservations on Resy. I started with the oysters. Beyond knowing there were oysters on the menu and where from, the waitress did not have a description for me but did go ask the kitchen. I was told medium size oysters and moderate Briny flavor. They were very good. However, I would call them small not medium. Price could have been better for the size. The octopus appetizer taste was absolutely amazing with perfect tenderness and grill flavor. NOT shareable and honestly very tiny so again, overpriced at $18. Entrees are fairly priced. My husband was delighted over the tavern steak. It was a little undercooked per our request for medium but they will take it back if needed. He ate it anyway and said it was outstanding. I had the salmon dish and it was superb. Cocktails and wine fairly priced. Mixed drinks w a smaller pour. For desert the crème brûlée did not disappoint. Our waitress was not the best but from what I could see, the other waitresses were very attentive. Food 5/5. My service and some overpriced items gave it a 4/5.

We made the trip from Brattleboro, VT to New London, NH for an event at Colby-Sawyer College and decided to try Elms Restaurant and Bar — and wow, we’re so glad we did!
The entire experience was top-notch. We started with fresh, perfectly shucked oysters that set the tone for an incredible meal. The steak was cooked to perfection, the burger was juicy and flavorful, and the crème brûlée was the ideal sweet ending. Every dish was prepared down to the T — we honestly hadn’t had food this good in a long time.
The drinks were equally impressive — well-crafted and delicious. The atmosphere was cozy yet upscale, with a welcoming vibe that made us want to linger. The staff was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind.
We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. Elms is truly a hidden gem in New London and absolutely worth the drive!

We were looking for a nice dinner after attending a wake for one of our veterans. The staff was very accommodating of our party of 7. Krystal was very good and bonded with our boisterous party. She was on point getting drinks, apps, and dinner. Always checking on us to ensure everything was good. For apps we had mussels and mushrooms both were out of this world. Dinners included the house steak, scallops, pork shank, everything was delicious. Only complaint was that the Mac and cheese was bland. Make no mistake this place is pricey so be prepared, but the overall experience and atmosphere is amazing. Cheers, Dan.

Loved the atmosphere and decor of the restaurant. Our server Avril was amazing and so attentive to dietary restrictions and allergies.
The food was more expensive than what I’m used to and I wish there were a few more options on the menu but everything we had was delicious. Lots of gluten free options. The desserts were the best!

Not so fancy as mentioned in different forums. Quantity of food is rubbing ridiculous and taste is a question of culinary experience of the guest. Internacional wines: 5 oz glasses are charged at bottle prices. Fortunately I’m from Rioja and the wine I tasted I never saw in my life and I’m a wine lover. Elms seems to be a place where people want to be seen….

Honestly, this is the only truly good food in the New London ‘cuisine desert’. After visiting the charming town for years, bit being consistently disappointed in the restaurants, I can say that this is the only place worth your time, calories and money.

Always a treat to dine at the Elms, a standard now for my family. Not been disappointed by the dishes or cocktail menu. A lot of variety for people eating specific diets. Even the mocktails are great. Easy to make it casual (burgers) or more upscale (octopus).
