content: We were staying at the Sanctuary for our anniversary weekend. Elements came highly recommended, but we had a lot of restaurants that we wanted to try, so had to go to Elements for lunch. The restaurant is beautiful with a fabulous view of the Valley. We had a window seat to take advantage of the view. Our server was prompt, friendly and attentive. \n\nThe food was unfortunately a huge disappointment. We started with the grilled pear and brie quesadilla. The pears were not grilled (were barely even cooked). The brie was good, but the overall combination lacked much flavor or pizazz. The honey and pine nut garnish were the only real source of flavor and made it tolerable. \n\nWe shared the \""specialty\"" Asian grilled chicken breast with grilled corn and cilantro slaw and the Angus burger with cheddar and balsamic roasted onions w/potato chips. The chicken specialty was an unseasoned cooked chicken breast with cold barbeque sauce poured on top and then cut into slices. I can't even remember having such a bland, uninspiring chicken dish. Trader Joe's frozen teriyaki chicken breasts are far superior. The grilled corn was actually grilled and was sweet and delicious. The cilantro slaw was some cabbage with shredded carrots and a few springs of cilantro, but no dressing or seasoning to bring it together. \n\nThe Angus burger was a good burger. Balsamic roasted onions were delicious. Potato chips were not anything special. \n\nWe also had breakfast from Elements via room service. Another disappointment. Average scrambled eggs. Fruit plate with limp, unripe cantaloupe and honeydew. Good latte. \n\nOverall, I am glad that we chose to go elsewhere for our anniversary dinner. We may go back to the Sanctuary, but not to Elements.
