Elise's Eatery

Super friendly staff. Amazing service and amazing food. Definitely one of the best burgers I’ve had in northern California. It’s cooked perfectly. The fries were cooked perfectly overall just amazing. If haven’t been here definitely try it.

Great lunch spot! The staff is super friendly, the food is yummy, and they played solid music. I got a chef salad which was fresh and filling. The rest of my group got a BLT with fries, cheeseburger with fries, and chicken tenders with a side salad and they all enjoyed their meals. Definitely recommend stopping here!

Food was amazing. We had a burger and chicken. Generous portions, great food, very friendly and helpful staff.

From Canada, been on the road for about a week so you can only imagine all of the places we’ve been to eat so far. By far the best spot not only for the incredible food, but the atmosphere was amazing as well. Our server/hostess was Kjirsten, she was phenomenal. If you’re passing through or staying here, this is an absolute must to eat at. Btw we had the redwood burger.

Ate the best burger here. The service is outstanding and the location is very cute. We also had the chicken tenders here and there are no words to describe just how delicious they were. Absolutely worth a visit

Huge burgers with a ton of fries ! ($18. Range.) Wonderful homemade dessert options.She just created a black berry cobbler from Berries She picked that morning, delightful.

Hands down best service super friendly an fast with the food, I live out of town an I feel like they welcomed me with open arms at the restaurant. The food was BOMB as well. I definitely will be coming back

So glad we went here after hiking Jedediah Woods. We both had the salad with chicken tenders. Wow, the chicken was perfect, the salad fresh and crisp. Our server was terrific and we told her to tell the kitchen that they know how to cook. I wish I lived closer!!

Super cute little hole in the wall burger place. The burger was MASSIVE and the chicken tenders were also a great portion. What really topped it all off though was the service. Lily and Kiersten were so kind. Definitely recommend!

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!

Literally, best burger in town! Better than CC’s, any at the Casinos or places in the Brookings/Crescent City área. This place deserves all the 5 star reviews that it is receiving. It’s a small hole in the wall stop but man does the food pack a punch. The chicken is seasoned before it’s breaded and battered. It’s moist and is tender without being dry. The burgers are cooked to perfection and they’re not cheap run of the mill burgers. These burger patties are at least half and inch thick after being cooked, with real cheddar cheese (not the processed kind). The produce is fresh and the bacon cuts are thick and oh so crispy. With flavor that lingers way past your last bite. Elise’s Eatery really is a treasure and needs to be supported. The sweet potato fries were a nice alternative and were salted, warm, thick and crisp. The burgers we had weren’t saturated with grease and or soggy. The bun holds its own and don’t get me started on the homemade cheesecake. We splurged and got the turtle cheesecake with salted caramel and chopped almonds. That was heavenly - tasted like being back in grandma’s kitchen. Please give this place a try and to the chef, much love. To the young lady in the front handling all those orders, you’re killing it girl with class and kindness. We can’t wait to taste the whole menu, cheers!!

Excellent food and service. Cheeseburger and onion rings was one of the best I’ve had.

Very nice overall experience, the best burger around in my opinion. Generous serving and a choice of options to pick from. I definitely recommend eating at elise’s eatery.

Super customer service really good food can't wait to go back and try different stuff and very plesent atmosphere I can't believe it took us so long to try it but we are definitely going to support our local restaurants and this is an top of the list. Second trip had the chicken tenders so yummy 😋 I highly recommend

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!!

The food was amazing! And the service was very good. I got the fried chicken sandwich and it wasnt too greasy!

This unassuming little restaurant felt like a place where locals dine. The waitress was very friendly and the food was delicious!. We had burgers and fries and one had an eggplant burger that she loved. Fast service and very clean!

We are just visiting but this is NO DOUBT the best place to eat in Crescent City. Hidden gem and a MUST if you are in the area. Service and food were A+. Desserts were phenomenal.

This burger shop is delicious. We ordered the redwood burger and chicken tenders and they were both delicious. The service was amazing! I will return here anytime I’m in town

We tried the western burger and Mac and cheese both were delicious!! Everything tasted fresh and homemade. They even had fresh apple hand pies for a sweet treat 10/10 recommend. The restaurant was also very cute and clean the food came out quick and the waitress was so so kind and attentive. Thank you for a great lunch!!

Elise and her crew are knocking it out of the park. Maybe I was just famished, but it's one of the best cheeseburgers I've ever eaten. Everything was right about that burger. My wife's club was also good. The coleslaw is interstellar. I sampled the mixed berry cobbler a la mode. They put too much ice cream, and I ate the whole thing anyway. I'd do it again. The room is not exciting; I found it a touch dingy and a smidgen stinky; but, they were rocking 80s hair-band music. Nevertheless... 6 stars.

You’re probably sitting in your car trying to decide where to go eat. You should go here. The reviews are legit. This place serves you fresh, hot meals made with care by people who are proud of their business. Friendly smiles as soon as you walk in the door! Next time I’m in town I’ll be eating here again.

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.

Delicious food and great service. All chicken that our party ordered was delicious as well as the cheeseburger. All sauces were delicious too.

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.

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.

Found this on Google on our way thru town. High rating is definitely accurate. Diner food but great recipes and portions

Great food and service. It's a small location, but well worth it to give it a try. The Western Cheeseburger was spectacular, and the onion rings were perfect. Stay and enjoy or get it to go.

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!

Small 'hole-n-the-wall' place the wife found as we were driving through... and it got 5 stars, so let's try it.. and we agree 5 stars all day!! The food was great! The service was great! When we are in Crescent City again, we will definitely stop in again!

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.

Such a delightfully simple delicious spot ! Had the chicken tender sandwich- crispy flavorful toasted bun and all sorts of sauce choices - the waitress is down to earth friendly and on task for your every need ! Not fancy or full of airs just good ol down home cooking atmosphere and service

Great veggie options field junk food or what some people refer to as vegetarian comfort food. Always nice to have the option of that a sa vegetarian, but I definitely couldn't eat that heavy food very often.

Best food I've had in recent memory. Everything tasted good and the portions were HUGE!! We recommend.

Honestly walked in not expecting much from this place. Wanted just a quick burger and some fries. However, not only did i receive one of the best burgers i had in this long road trip of mine but also had awesome sweet potatoe fries and onion rings. The burgers were amazing and the service was awesome!!! Honestly there was a good selection of desserts as well but honestly the burgers filled me up. Was ready for a nap and i don't get full that easily. The western was my favorite out of the two but both were amazing. There is not many places i usually stop to get a bite to eat but this one is logged in to my next road trip. Keep it up and will soon be back with some homies and friends 😊

If you want a quick lunch, don't go here, they take their time here, and I say that as a compliment! It didn't take very long, but this isn't fast food! I loved the painting on the wall🌊❤️ The basket of biscuits, so yummy, the jelly was homemade 🍓. My daughter & I teared up over how good the chicken tenders were, probably top 3 I've ever had & I eat them a lot, d have been all over this beautiful country of ours! I added that because it speaks volume to how amazing it is. If you have the chance, just go, you will not be let down!

Came to visit crescent city and after a long drive this place was sooo good. Def will remember the food and the nice lady at the counter. The western and redwood burgers were delicious!

Elise is a very kind person and helped me pick the right item for my sweet tooth. This was these best apple crisp with vanilla ice cream i have experienced in my 63 years of being on the planet! I will be dining here again. And FYI I have eaten at many restaurants across the US. I'm please with my expierience!!!❤️

Adding to the words of another reviewer. If you are torn about where to eat, COME HERE. Goodness gracious the food was prepped fresh, and you could tell. We ordered the crispy chicken salad, 3 piece chicken meal, onion rings and curly fries. The only miss? The biscuits, didn’t care for it. Everything was bloody delicious, and the slaw that comes with the chicken pairs so well, I wished it was bottomless. The service was great too, smiles from the moment you walk in and they are super friendly! Don’t leave town without trying this place out!

Super cute little hole in the wall burger place. The burger was MASSIVE and the chicken tenders were also a great portion. What really topped it all off though was the service. Lily and Kiersten were so kind. Definitely recommend!

Standard diner fare, I’ll be honest we chose based on reviews without looking at the menu and that was a mistake. Service was good enough, food was not that great to be honest and doesn’t live up to the google reviews we read which influenced us to give it a try. My beef dip sandwich had a burger patty in it not sliced meat; which was not what I wanted, had I of wanted a burger patty I’d of ordered a burger. The bread was heavily fried one side and nicely golden and less greasy on the other. My fellow diner had the fried chicken which was wasn’t too bad but the biscuit it came with was barely able to be called a biscuit, it was almost flat. We liked that the server was polite and kept our drinks refilled at no extra cost. However, overall we would not return if we return to the area.
