Delicious braised octopus to start, with excellent wine and cocktails. We enjoyed dinners of Halibut and Gnochetti.

The food is off the charts and for the first time we had the artichoke heart bruschetta and it was to die for! My husband's daughter's favorite dish is the lasagna but I have never had it until our guest brought some back to our home so when they left I tried it and no question the best I have ever had!! Very smooth melts in your mouth is the only way I know how to describe it!

Love Ellina, one of Aspens tried and true, still standing. The Artichoke Bruschetta app so yummy.

We had a wonderful dinner. The service is outstanding and the food, atmosphere and vibes were just great!

Service was excellent, and the Black Pepper Fettucini was amazing!! However, the $68 Halibut was just OK, and the wine list had the year wrong on the pricey bottle of wine we selected. Our reservation was at 8 pm on a Friday night in early March - and the noise was insanely loud. Eliina offers nothing soft or luxurious to tamper the reverberations off the stone walls. It was obnoxious enough yelling across our table of 6, but I would have just left if I was out for a date night with my sweetie.

Food and service outstanding -probably the best fried calamari we have ever had. Inventive and tasty cocktails. Fun atmosphere!

We had the 1st seating when the crowd was minimal. Our waiter was gracious and inviting but he got in the weeds as people came in. He was less then attentive and was noticeably absent the rest of the evening

Wonderful food and service. They were very accommodating of our requests (table relocation, split plates, etc.) and attentive. The food is pricy, though, and it was fairly noisy. It is downstairs in a room with rock walls and the tables are somewhat close together.

Excellent service and food was superb. Our fish dishes were perfectly prepared; presentation was outstanding.
Ellina is a true Aspen treasure! Owner and sommelier Jill brings unmatched passion and expertise to every detail, curating a phenomenal wine list that perfectly complements Chef Miguel’s extraordinary creations. The menu is a masterpiece, from indulgent handmade pastas to tender braised short rib and the vibrant, must-try taco menu.
The service is impeccable, the atmosphere warm and inviting, and every visit feels like a special occasion. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, Ellina is a dining experience you’ll never forget. Kudos to Jill, Chef Miguel, and their incredible team!

The pasta was decent. Nothing special though. The Salmon was dry and had little flavor. The service was disappointing and it was so loud in there I could barely hear my wife who was sitting next to me. I would recommend going some where else.
