Wife and I got the fried rice, string beans and bao buns. Great as per usual. A Korean fusion gem in the heart of Greenport.

Food kinda good, not the best but it will do (you are never going to write home to mom and say you had the best dinner here)…. However the fried chicken was lovely.
Where my problem really starts is with the service…. Shocking! We arrived and there was one other table in the whole place (actually they were sat by the bar having having a drink). We asked for a baby chair as we had a child with us. The old lady with the leathery skin who was serving us - (clearly sat on way too many sun beds) and the Karen haircut. Was just so rude and dismissive to me. I was the only brown guy with a group of white friends who she was clearly more accommodating to.
It started with when I asked her for a high chair for a child. She bought it out dumped it at the entrance to the restrooms near our table then walked off. Errr what? Didn’t even bring it to the table (we thought she went away to get a wipe to clean it - clearly not, she went and served the two people at the bar).
We paid a tip but you know what I would have never given her a dime however my friend is American and he believes in tipping even though you receive shocking service. Here is our bill just to prove that we. I come from the uk where we reward good service with a tip because people have done a good job, it’s not expected despite the shocking level of service that is received.
This woman is working in a customer service role, she clearly does not understand what customer service actually is. If she is the owner, then man! She should just shut up shop and do something else because customer facing roles are not for her.
Also if you are the person who owns this place and you are reading this… fire this woman immediately! This is how she is treating your customers when you are not around.

Ellen’s perfectly balances casual and classy. The beautiful dining room offers an upscale experience where kids are welcome, or you can enjoy a cozy date night at the bar. Don’t miss the fried rice or the whipped ricotta—they’re both incredible! The music is always on point, adding to the great vibes. Ellen’s is not to be missed, whether you're in Greenport for a long time or just a good time. Plus, it's locally and family-owned—a true North Fork gem.

Nice atmosphere. Food was very good with a lot of Asian influences. Sunday night service was a bit slow due to there being only one waitress running the whole place. No busboys.

My husband and I have been coming to greenport for the past 4 years. We wanted to try Ellen’s last year but unfortunately didn’t work out. I made reservations in advance and when we went last night we were 15 min late. The woman who was at the front was also the waitress told us we were 15 minutes late we apologized obviously things come up. She scolded us like we are in school. We are both over 50! She seemed very irate and told us that we could sit at any of the 3 tables that were empty. There are only 6 tables total with a bar which was empty. My husband asked her which would be easier for her and she responded “okay sit over here” which we did… nevertheless I have never in my 40 years of going out to dinner was ever spoken to so rudely. I was NOT EATING HERE! so we got up and left: sorry who ever the owner is should probably give this woman a speech on how to speak to people with grace! I’ve been in customer service and I still have a business which deals with clients and would never in my life speak to someone in this degrading manner! Shame on her!!!

Hidden gem on Front street. The menu holds a wide variety of flavors that all sound delicious. We need to come back just to try more dishes. The fried chicken, mussels, fried rice and spare ribs were all incredible. We will be back!

food was delicious! got lobster roll with tons of fresh meat, two big claws inside. We also loved the Thai crispy shrimp wraps, but were disappointed with the dipping sauces that came with it. Service is great, but the atmosphere compared to the rest of the town is feels dull and lacking

Fabulous dinner from start to finish! Calamari and whipped ricotta appetizers, delicious and tender steak frites as a main and ended with a delicious panne cotte. Ellen herself was there and she is a fabulous host! Highly recommend!!!

Food was outrageously good- I got the BLT with avo (the bacon was SO GOOD) and my boyfriend ordered the crab cake sandos. Our waitress was attentive and so kind! She brightened up our days! We cannot wait to come back!

Highly recommended. We had the fried chicken, string beans, stuffed clams, asparagus, clam chowder, fried rice (party of 4.). Everything was delicious. We'll be back. Best restaurant in Greenport if not the North Fork.
