    Our waiter was attentive. The food was very salty, vegetables over charred, and cold. Overpriced. Tax on bill was excessive.

    Can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience at Ella’s! The food was outstanding. Mozarella sticks were unlike any I’ve ever had! We also had the margarita pizza and fusilli a la vodka pasta. All wonderful! Our server, Jay, was one of the best parts of our experience. He treated us like royalty, was so attentive, not over-bearing, knowledge, and genuine! He even treated us to a complimentary dessert! We are so glad we chose to give Ella’s a try and it will now certainly be somewhere we frequent! And hope we have Jay each time!

    My server was AMAZING!! He greeted me right away. Gave me some great insight to the food menu and wine. He was very attentive. The food was incredible. I started with the in-house made mozzarella cheese sticks (not sticks at all-more like huge rolls) and home made pasta rigatoni with 8 hour simmering sauce and chicken. I wish I would have had room for their dessert!
