Great food, service, and ambiance. Got there about 11 am on a Sunday and was seated immediately. Steak and eggs as well as gyro and fries were perfectly done.

A delightful Greek dining experience! The indoor and outdoor seating places offer unique takes, both very pleasant. The tsatziki appetizer was thicker than the usual sauce and quite tasty. We also had some interesting cocktails, and the lamb shank was absolutely perfectly made. Would definitely return!

Had early dinner and experience was great as usual. Spiro took time away from his manager position to serve us and was excellent as always. Had octopus and cauliflower appetizers which we love. Two people had the grouper special and two had the lavraki and were able to share dished. Both entrees were delicious. We had a complimentary dessert (Galaktoboureko) which was the perfect was to end the evening.

More Turkish than Greek to be honest but the salads are good (greek &roasted beet), the lamb shank giouvetsi is divine. Vegetarian options: roasted cauliflower, zucchini fritters, vegetarian moussaka are highly recommended. Top class service!
Loved the food—eggplant and red pepper appetizers;beet salad; bucatini lobster;grilled chicken skewers entrees were all excellent. The flaming cheese was fun to watch but a little too salty. If you replace it with a less salty cheese, it would be gone! Great service as always. Noise level was high when the restaurant is full.
The food, wine and service was excellent. We had Saganaki, Flaming Cheese and Calamari for appetizers. I had the sword fish and my date had the pasta with lobster. We had an excellent bottle of Duckhorn Sauvignon Blanc which complimented the entire meal. Service was excellent.
Food was great. There probably needs to be an additional waiter or two to help on busy nights. I had to get up twice to get something myself because the buss boy or waiter forgot. A bit crowded in the restaurant but I'd go back to try some more dishes.

Wonderful. Beginning to end. The flaming cheese and brandy appetizer was off the hook yummy. Recommend Gatsby cocktail ?.

Nice restaurant but there’s a pretty server-boy who made smarty pants comments while waiting on our table during romantic dinner date. Owners should train their staff- this is not a cafe or a casual eatery.2024 Update: got ridiculously expensive for small portions and pretentious menu items. Budget $120+ per person unless you want to leave restaurant still hungry!
Crowded, loud and lack of intimacy.Expect strangers coats to be hung up next to your table in an already crowded space suffocating you further.Don't plan on hearing your tablemates, just cacophony. (For the restaurant; there are ways to fix this, google is your friend.)Do plan on overpaying for an average meal.If this is your scene, then you're in for a treat.I walked out of my last dining experience. This is not it.

Great spot for a romantic meal. The decor takes you away to the Mediterranean and the food was beautifully plated and delicious. Only minor drawback is that the tables are a bit close in the center of the floor, but I didn't notice it after we started our meal. The moderate noise level is welcome as it allows for the conversation at your table to not be easily heard by the next. I'll definitely be coming back.

It was very crowded and even though we had reservations were seated about 15 min's later. We were a party of 5 and were seated very close to a large party. My husband had a seat very close to the party and was actually in the pathway. He was bumped several times with passing traffic and when the party was leaving he was again, was bumped with purses and the party saying their farewells. Then to top it off, a coat/purse rack fell on him. The manager did however, apologize but noting else. I have been to Elia's several times and wanted my husband to enjoy his first time. I don't think he did.

Great service. Friendly place. Loved the interiors. Went for my son's birthday dinner. Oh, they definitely made him feel special!Will be one of our go to
Brought my wife here for a birthday dinner. While very loud, the place was beautiful. Our waiter was very attentive as were the busboys. We shared the octopus appetizer— very tender and delicious. Wish it were an entee item. Also shared the Greek salad which was so authentic. My wife loved the seafood paella and I loved the bucatini pasta. Beautifully presented and awesome flavors. The only downside if there was one was it is a bit difficult getting the lobster meet out of the shell — but well worth it!!! Will definitely go back for another date again.
