    We love Ela Mesa. This visit they were busier as we try to go on the early side. The food is very good ! The Pita is excellent -- and we had the chicken Kebab, lamb chops and lamb shank. Everyone liked the main dishes. Owner was working hard with his staff. We will return. If this place was closer to us it would be packed every day. It is so much better than most other restaurants.

    Authentic Greek food. The fish is fresh and moist, cooked to perfection. Moussaka is absolutely divine. Saganaki is a special treat and even the sides of lemon potatoes and spinach and rice are excellent. Boris, our waiter, was attentive and actively working to make sure we had everything we needed. Took our friends along tonight and they really enjoyed the evening.
