I went once, with my first "serious" girlfriend, 15+ years ago. It was one of several trendy chain restaurants she insisted we visit as inexperienced high schoolers. This restaurant and the Elephant bar will forever remind me of her: aggressively middle class with aspirations of upper class experience without really knowing what that is. And on one hand, I do understand it. On the other, it felt tacky and desperate at the time, and I can't really ever shake that association for either place.
