I have to say my husband and I were looking forward to trying Elmer's, and after reading all the reviews we went a few Friday evenings ago...we were REALLY disappointed. The food smelled great, but we never got the chance to try it. We got there around 6 during dinner rush, so we had no problem waiting. We put our name on the list, the host said it would be around 20 minutes, which was fine, and actually a pleasant surprise considering how busy they were. There was one name on the list before ours, however, as we waited for over an hour at least 5 groups were seated, all of which seemed to be regulars, when my husband asked how long it would we were told we could sit at the bar. We gave him 15 more minutes then we left after yet another table was seated before us. We were very disappointed!

They treat you like family! We've been regulars since moving to the area six years ago. Our 4 year old loves it. Menu is big enough for eveyone to find something. Burgers, and Buffalo Chicken sandwich are favorites, but the Fish sandwich is the best! Two big pieces of fried cod, yum! Pizza is pretty good too -- especially if you like lots of cheese.

We also like the Sunday Breakfast Buffet. Not a huge spread, but priced right, and everything is good, including the made to order omlets. Speaking of buffets, we tried the Thanksgiving Buffet and were knocked out! Who needs to go to all the trouble, when you can get a great 'home cooked' meal like that?

No, I don't work there -- just really like this place, and the people!

Elmer's Doghouse is the Best. The Staff is very friendly, the Stuffed Green Pepper Soup is amazing, and the crab leg special every other saturday is excellent!!! Great place to go hang out and have a few drinks. Very down to earth atmosphere, and loaded with good people. The Pizza is really good too!!!!

I have to agree with Charlene about the stuffed green pepper soup, it is great, and I am not a soup person. Elmer's is really known for it's fish when the original was on Farnsworth. They do have good fish and other American fare to satisfy all appetites. Give it a try sometime.

Elmer's has the best stuffed green pepper soup in the "world".
YES, In the world.
We featured it as a part of "taste of Montgomery" and it is just wonderful.
The place is great for a quick lunch, sandwich or salad.
I really enjoy this place and enjoy the menu! More people need to eat there and spread the word.
