We didn't come here for dinner, so I can't speak to the dining room experience.
However, we did come, unannounced, with a rather large group for drinks in the late evening, a few months ago. Since Jamesport doesn't really have much of a "going out" scene, the Elbow Room was a funny little dive bar, quirky in the best sense, and for the most part, very accommodating. We enjoyed our experience, had a lot of fun, and it was only partially soured by a waitress on a terrible bender. She yelled at my friends to get out of her way multiple times, and actually shoved one of my friends in the back at one point! CLEARLY, a bad day for her. However, I'm optimistically thinking it was a bad day for her...and not a reflection of the restaurant/bar's service in general. Our bartender was great! I would definitely go back a 2nd time, if I was in the area and looking for a fun nightcap.
