The Mango-pop mocktail is a fabulous beverage! Love all the food here, our waiter was excellent 🙏

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!

Food and service were excellent as always , though music is so loud one must speak forcefully over it.

Great food and great service our waiter was wonderful and took really good care of us Everyone loved their fish dishes and the zucchini chips are fabulous
Dustin
Sat downstairs in the room beneath the staircase - such a cozy/warm/intimate vibe with the wine room adjacent. Favorite dishes were the Elea Chips (tzatziki was really authentic) and Short Rib (perfect risotto and hearty Fall flavors).

So-so experience. Octopus was very good. Lamb was solid. Orzotto was over-marketed (very little seafood in it). Trio of sauces was undistinguished.

We had a small-plates dinner and it was very pleasant, with attentive and efficient service and tasty food. The area where we were seated, in an alcove on the 1st floor (not downstairs) was reasonably quiet for such a busy place. My only complaint is, the table for 2 (packed tight in a corner) was quite cramped for having drinks and sharing small plates.

I come here often. The food is amazing and the service is always good. The menu is authentic Greek and all the dishes are genuine. I especially like the Moussaka and the meatballs. All the appetizer spreads are to die for but very filling. I can never finish my main course when I have them but that gives me another meal! It is very noisy which is the only issue I have. They have tables outside under a tent which is much quieter but not too comfortable in the winter. Imhighly recommend Elea.

We were seated outside and it was not noisy, but inside is a different story. Loved the food and service very much!

This is a neighborhood gem on the Upper West Side. Always full because the locals (me, included) know it's one of the city's great Greek restaurants. The real thing.
I had a wonderful meal here with friends. It was a warm night, but one of the last. We sat outside, so had no noise issues. The food is excellent and we were well taken care of by the servers, who came by but managed not to interrupt any conversations. I will definitely be back.

The staff was awesome and very dedicated to making the experience enjoyable. We were in Greece last year and to taste a meal that was spot on authentic warmed or hearts.

I always have a fabulous time at ELEA and this was no exception. The Food and service are always top notch. I especially appreciated the excellent job my server George did. Can't wait to go back again!

Foods delicious. IDK if it was organic; I wish it were. Service was excellent and attentive. Downstairs dining room was clean and lovely.
