Warm and welcoming space with light Mediterranean vibe. We ordered lots of small plates to share and they were all delicious. Prompt service. Great dinner.
The risotto with mushrooms was a disappointment. It would be best described as a soup, heavy in the truffle flavoring
Lovely Greek dining! Great food and drinks with friendly and professional staff. Big space and nice ambience. Will definitely go back with friends and family.
Brunch was an excellent value. The food was great. The service excellent and the price reasonable.
We came to this restaurant for a birthday celebration and upon entering it immediately brought back pleasant memories from our vacation in Greece this past summer. The staff greeted us warmly and with excitement. We had multiple appetizers and entrées, being that we were a party of five, which you can see from the pictures below. Our waitress was amazing, the food was exquisite, and I would definitely recommend this place to everyone!

Honestly surprised with how good the food was here. All 3 spreads we ordered were delicious, the chicken kebob was extremely juicy and tender, and the spanakopita was amazing as well. The sea-bass was more like a 7/10, nothing to blow you away but still good. We didn’t try any of the meats which looked delicious. This is a great place if you have a big party or need a last minute fri/sat night res

It has wonderful, modern Greek fare. Drinks were excellent - lychee and fig martini were standouts. Lamb chops were the best I have had in a while. They were out of their signature dish - moussaka and meatballs. That was a bummer, as our reservation was at 8:30pm.
Place was really crowded - with literally no room to stand while we waited for our table to be ready. Our waitress was really soft spoken, hard to hear and not really helpful.

Great little Greek restaurant with a home feel. The staff and the customers are super friendly. The food is delicious and has a home authentic Greek feel. Loved everything here from the calemari to the octapus to all kinds of fish. The prices are good as well for the quality of food and service. A must visit if you are into greek food.

What a gem. We (2 people) shared 3 small plates and actually took some home so the portions are very good! Vegetable chips, Octopus (my favorite) and Souvlaki...all delicious!
Everything about this spot is an A plus. Service was impeccable, great vibe. Food is beyond amazing. Came for both brunch and dinner. Elea doesn’t miss!
Recommendations: French toast (brunch), lamb chops, Greek salad.

Was surprised how good the food is here. Had the whole dorade and just as good as anywhere in Greece. The trio of dips and hamachi was excellent as well. Service and atmosphere matched. Will repeat
