We had the best time here for an early dinner before heading downtown for a show. Highlights of the meal are the French Onion Toast and Ricotta Gnocci. They also have a mocktail menu which had some delicious drinks on it. Will definitely be back soon!
The food and the staff were amazing. I will visit again.
Great food ... Leah did awesome Job

Ella Elli offers a delightful dining experience with flavorful dishes and thoughtfully prepared drinks. The Taylor Swift brunch is a must-try with incredible food and top-notch service. The cozy atmosphere, complete with a fireplace, adds to the dining experience.

The attentive staff provides helpful suggestions without being pushy and accommodates dietary restrictions like gluten-free options. The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable, making recommendations that enhance the meal. The restaurant’s atmosphere is lovely, with options for indoor and outdoor dining, creating a perfect setting for dinners, birthdays, or casual outings. The food is excellent, with inventive and delicious choices, and the cocktails, especially the cocktails, are often perfect. Many guests appreciate the reasonable prices and welcoming ambiance, making Ella Elli a favorite spot for those seeking superb food and a relaxed environment in Chicago. Vegetable dishes, scallops, and octopus are also highly recommended, though some cocktails like the Black Lilac may not meet everyone’s expectations. Overall, Ella Elli is a great place to enjoy a special celebration or just unwind with good food and drinks.
