éléments Bar & Dining @ Mercure Resort Hunter Valley Gardens

Very nice decor, we liked the environment there. But the food is still too expensive for a meal.

Excellent food and setting! The salmon with mashed potatoes is delicious. The filet de boef is perfect and the haricot verts are the best I ever had at any

We stopped in here for lunch upon arriving to Deauville and it was so welcoming and the people were so friendly.

We stayed at the resort and visited the restaurant on the first night. No complaints. It is a very welcoming business - great facility and service. Introduced us to a new wine that we sought out at the cellar door on the next day. We would come back.

My husband and I recently stayed at the Mercure Hunter Valley and dined at Elements.Elements presents well and the staff we lovely and very attentive. We choose the 3 course dinner but were a little disappointed with the meals. They were by no means terrible, but they needed a bit more attention to be talked about positively.We both had the pork belly and scallops for entree. The pork belly was well over cooked and as a result the crackling was tough and meat dry. The scallops were cut in half (and obviously so). This was not something I have ever seen done before.Our mains (beef cheeks) were nice. Served in a small pot with carrots, broad beans and mushrooms.The dessert (margarine creme brûlée) was not of creme brûlée consistency and as such we were a bit disappointed.I doubt that we would return to Elements, given the other amazing restaurants in the Hunter Valley area. Particularly when this was as expensive as many other more fine dining venues.
