About Elisa


A steakhouse reimagined. Meet Elisa, located in the heart of Vancouver’s Yaletown — a unique and feminine take on the signature steakhouse experience featuring a Grillworks Infierno wood-fired grill.

Steeped in both tradition and an unparalleled love of cooking, Elisa takes its lead from the values of sharing memorable moments around the table with family and friends.

Rooted in the ancient art of grilling, Executive Chef Andrew Richardson’s menu of prime cuts from around the world, sustainable seafood and locally-sourced ingredients exemplifies the pursuit of perfection.

It’s in this spirit of hospitality that Elisa offers a dining experience unlike any other.
