Not a fan ... stopped in late Saturday night, 10:30 pm and got the feeling when we were ordering that they were closing soon, which they said they were not, but it was a bit odd. Terrible music... just bad 90's music, made us want to leave. Had one of the pizza's, something like 23 dollars, too much. Our fault, should have had a slice across the street at one of the dive pizza places... this pie was a simple pepperoni with hot honey and with tip came to 5 bucks a bitty slice. Perhaps the younger folks enjoy it here, not for us.

Ella's is a beautiful resturant in Huntington with a more intimate vibe and beautiful decor. The food is pretty good, not over the top. But I mostly come for the drinks and ambiance!

Local living in Huntington. Went to Ella's on a Tuesday evening thinking it would be quiet and would have great service. Rather, it was loud, obnoxious music, an incompetent waiter and awful food. We had to go to the bar on two different occasions to ask for ice that we had asked our waiter for. Nightmare and never again! Best to go to Jonina in town for better food/service.

The chicken parm is truly a show stopper - I'd drive well out of my way for it/to get to Ella's again.Combine that with great service at the bar, solid drinks and apps and i'd absolutely go back to Ella's for a night out or before/after the paramount.

The restaurant was very slow, the food took a very long time to come out. The plain pizza was good, but could have done without the sprinkled Parmesan cheese excessively. The salad was full leaves of lettuce, not chopped, which was a little weird. The side of meatballs were lukewarm and extremely salty and very hard to eat because of the salt. The bathrooms were not attended to all night long with paper and other items left on the floor  This place has potential, but it would benefit more from a manager walking around making sure everything is going perfect.  The staff was friendly, but not very focused

First time here and won't be the last. From the hostess to the servers everyone was friendly and accommodating. Had the special appetizer, Maryland crab cake and it was delicious! Mostly all lump crab, not “bready”. So good... Our dinners were tasty as well. Chicken parm and the blackened Gulf shrimp over risotto. The latter was extremely delicious and flavorful. Great place in our book!

I was going to the Paramount next door for a show so I booked well in advance and requested the dining room. We walked in 15 minutes early and told the Maitre d at the door we have a reservation for 2 in the dining room under my name. Imagine my surprise when I was told there were no seats left in the dining room and I would have to sit next to the door at the bar in tall bar seats. The Maitre d apologized and we were seated. At this time, I asked what was the point of making a reservation for the dining room to be told it was not available. The maitr d apologized again. We sat and ordered our drinks along with one appetizer and two entrees. The Zucchini Zeppoles arrived minutes later. The zeppoles were undercooked. The center was filled with uncooked dough!!! We ate around the uncooked center and at the darker fried pieces only. Upon awaiting our entrees 4 separate couples came in and were promptly seated in the dining room!!! WTH!! I thought the dining room had no available seats??? Some time afterward our entrees arrived. We ordered the Meatball Sliders and Guld Shrimp Rosoto. The meatball sliders were good, not great. The winner here was the risotto. Delicious! Now here comes the rub...As I am eating my food my phone rings. To my surprise, it's the restaurant Ellas calling me??? I answer and it is the very same maitre d that told us there were no seats! She asked for me and then went on to ask if I would be coming in for my reservation!?!? I told her that I was already here eating and she turned around and looked at me and apologized again. If you can't get a competent maitre d to take reservations and honor them then don't bother coming to this restaurant. Unless of course, you want undercooked food and an apology on why they can't sit you where you requested originally. I for one will NOT return to this establishment and suggest anyone who does decide to go here to cross their fingers and maybe you'll get the table you deserve or cooked food.

It was awesome. We had to dine quickly to make sure to get to a show at the Paramount on time, and our waitress was lovely and so accommodating. Food was delicious and staff was kind. Can't wait to go back!

We really enjoyed it! The steak, chicken, and marinara pizza were all excellent. Highly recommended.

We were attending a show at The Paramount, which is right next door, and everything about our experience was great. We sat at a high top in the bar area which was perfect for people watching. I have never had such great crispy Brussels Sprouts in their sauce. Plus the Nice and Smooth pizza with figs and jam was incredible. Great recommendations from our server. Highly recommend.
We met family for lunch on Sunday afternoon. We all were very pleased with the excellent food, quality service and quiet dining room which made for great conversation. Only one problem was the cold temps in the dining room. The manager raised the heat on request but by the time the heat was comfortable we'd had to eat our meal with our coats on.

A punch in the gut. Went there last night and was one of two tables. I ordered bread which is $5.90 (remember when they would give it to you...I digress). It came with olive oil. My kid wanted butter. No problem right? Well they charged me $7.90 for butter. When I asked about the "open food" charged they confirmed that was the price for butter. So bread and butter at this place cost me $13.80. Are you kidding me? Only redeeming quality about this place is its proximity to the Paramount but likely won't return after getting taken advantage of and you should heed my warning as well. Waitress had the opportunity to take it off bill and didn't. Too many options in this town and I don't need to get fleeced. Next!!
Food was good, service was good until they charge me 8 dollars for butter!!! I ordered bread which I knew was a few but the pure fact that they charged me $8.00 for butter so my daughter could have bread and butter is unbelievable and will be the cause of losing a customer that usually goes there often.
Service was terrible - very disappointed. We even asked for the dessert menu and waited a good 10 minutes just for our waitress to bring us the check. Place was empty so no reason why service was so poor.
Poor service and very loud. Meatball appetizer was good. Had the smashed burger that was big disappointment. My wife had the chicken parmesan which was a very large portion and was good. Waitress never came by to check if we needed another drink after we got our food. Nobody came to clear out plates after we were done and sitting for awhile. Had to finally stop someone to ask for our check so we could leave.
