Elephant Bar
View on Wikipedia
Elephant Bar was a scratch-kitchen restaurant in the United States that specialized in globally-based dishes and traditional American fare. The corporate office was located in Las Vegas, Nevada. Their first restaurant opened in Lubbock, Texas in 1980. In 2015, the chain comprised 25 restaurants throughout the United States, with the majority in California. Elephant Bar Restaurants were also located in New Mexico and Nevada.[1] The restaurants were decorated around an African safari theme, with wildlife motifs. Many of the dishes offered were pan-Asian fusion in design.[2][3][4][5]
In 2014, Elephant Bar filed for bankruptcy and closed 16 restaurants.[6] In 2017, Elephant Bar closed a number of sites with no explanation. In March 2018, Gen3 Hospitality purchased the Elephant Bar chain out of bankruptcy.[7] By 2021, there was only one remaining location in Albuquerque, New Mexico, which has now closed as of April 2023.
