    What a wonderful lunch we had at Elia today. I've been wanting to try Elia for a long time, so when my Foodie mom came to visit me, I knew I had to take her here. Of course she raved! So did I! The food was incredible - I'm still dreaming about the roasted cauliflower dish. We also tried the Smelts, Moussaka and Lamb meatballs. Everything was delicious. We had delicious cocktails which were prepared expertly. We wanted wine after our cocktails and our lovely server gave us tastings of various wines she thought we might like. Such a special experience. Thank you!

    We got our table 20 minutes after the reservation time. There was a DJ and a party with unbearable noise level, so we couldn’t hear ourselves. Not recommended!

    Great food, efficient but not friendly service. When seated they say by the way you can't stay any longer than X...somewhat rude I think, very noisy bar right next to the dining tables... High pressure on buying more drinks...

    What a great dining experience!!! Elia hit it out of the park in all 3 major areas: food, service, & atmosphere. It was our first time dining at Elia, and it did not disappoint. We ordered 2 appetizers (eggplant humus w/pita) and the calamari. Both were outstanding!!! For dinner we had the seafood paella, and the beet salad. We shared both, and we were plenty full. Presentation of the food was impressive, everything looked and tasted delicious. For dessert we both had Greek coffee, as well as baklava and the poached pear. Wow, simply superb!!! Our waiter was attentive, knowledgeable, and pleasant. Lots of food runners, who all were smiling and nice. It’s good a bit of a noise level, but I think it adds to the experience, and we could always hear ourselves talking. What a great time, can’t wait for the next time

    With a reservation two weeks ahead, our party was told at arrival we only had two hours for the table. The servers were asking to take plates before we were done and the whole thing felt rushed.

    Celebrated my husband’s birthday here and wow, the service was great, the food was amazing, and we loved the creative cocktails. We were so impressed by the Elia staff and their attention to detail. The special menus noting his birthday was our first surprise and he loved the sparkler candle at the end. We will definitely be coming back!
