Best European Restaurants in Alameda

Absolutely superb and stunning restaurant! The food is fantastic and the service is wonderful and attentive. The ambiance is so soothing and relaxing. It is a gem. We had a fantastic family reunion meal and it was so special. While we ate inside, the outdoor tented front of the restaurant looks extremely appealing as well. The bar is amazing- stocked to perfection! Reasonable for the level of fine dining Elia provides. We will be back!

RUN to eat here. The best meal I’ve had in SF after 7 years. Better than Quince, Rich Table, Osito, Earnest, Saison. I’m not even kidding and yes, I know those are different cusisines. The food is divine. Authentic French food and service (if they liked Americans).

Love spending Christmas eve every year here. So festive. Friendly service & host.

I met up with three friends who live in the neighborhood (I work there, but live elsewhere) and we truly had a wonderful experience! We had flights of wine (paired with chocolates), then ordered glasses of the ones we most enjoyed and also shared a delicious charcuterie board among us. The staff was incredibly kind, thoughtful & went above and beyond multiple times to make us feel welcome and to create a delightful experience, filling the evening with treats and the best service I've had in awhile. This is going to be a regular go-to for us! Thank you all so much for a fabulous evening!

So nice to see this addition to the neighborhood. Food was delicious. I hope they add more small plates and hope they change them up - that would be fun. Definitely plan on going back and recommending to others.
