   Bogdan gave us a great experience and was very attentive. One of the best experiences with wait staff ever! He's very knowledgeable and pays specific attention to customer details. He absolutely enhanced our evening! Thanks again

   We celebrated our 25th anniversary at Ella Dining Room and Bar, and it was an unforgettable experience! The service exceeded our expectations professional, attentive, and truly top-notch. Our waiter was one of the best we've ever had, making sure every detail was perfect throughout the evening. The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish prepared to perfection. From start to finish, the entire experience was exceptional. We highly recommend Ella to anyone looking for an outstanding dining experience, and we can’t wait to return!

   Food was great, service was good. . the noise was so bad though it ruined it. Also I had a reservation and they stuffed the 4 of us in the worst spot. People were walking by bumping into us, totally killed the vibe of the birthday dinner.

   I was really looking forward to this dinner for my husband and our anniversary. Service was terrible. We waited over 20 minutes for someone to come say hi to us. The lady who poured our water got in on my late and table and walked away. Bread and oysters were good. Our dinner didn’t arrive until after 8pm. Two hours later. My lamb rigatoni was so salty. If you are adding olives and pecorino you don’t need to add salt. I made my husband eat it and we didn’t finish it. We had originally wanted to order dessert but didn’t want to wait another hour. It was lack luster. Waste of money. Not worth it at all. Really upset about our anniversary dinner. The table next to us also were commenting that they had been siting for 2 hours, and they needed more than wine. If you can’t handle a full restaurant then don’t fill your tables and don’t over salt your food. Save your money! Apologized to my husband for the restaurant selection . Huge disappointment.

   Even though the volume was high due to a private event, the service alone was worth the visit. Interesting craft cocktails and a well imagined and prepared meal make Ella’s a stand out @ the capital.

   Great food but at times the service can get backed up. Be careful if your are on a tight schedule or make sure you get in and order before noon.

   The staff were very attentive. The food was absolutely delicious. The drinks were yummy. However the noise level was very loud. The prices were very reasonable for the quality of food and service. Definitely worth every penny!

   Wow!! Incredible service. Our server, Bogdan, was kind and thoughtful. He went above and beyond and made our anniversary celebration feel so special. And the FOOD! My mouth is watering just thinking about it. We got the Truffle Brioche, the Ricotta Gnocchi, the Fried Chicken, the Dungeness Crab Stuffed Halibut, and Vanilla Ice Cream. All were incredible and melted in our mouths. Highly recommend!

   Our first visit to Ella Dining Room and Bar was nothing short of spectacular. We started with the truffle brioche, which set the tone for an outstanding meal. My wife had the salmon, which she said was the best she’s ever had, and I had the crab-filled halibut over greens—easily one of the best dishes I’ve ever tasted. We finished with an incredible piece of chocolate cake. The quality of the food, the service, and the atmosphere made for an exceptional evening. Not inexpensive, but absolutely worth it. We’ll definitely be back!

    Highest quality, food, and service! A little pricey, so that’s an experience for once in a while for us. So glad we got the dessert menu and had the sticky bun with ice cream!
