About Eleni’s

Eleni's, a cosy and refined restaurant, offers a piece of Greece across the globe. The heated outdoor seating area is highly recommended, providing a lovely atmosphere. The staff, including the friendly hostess and attentive waitress, ensure a wonderful dining experience. The menu features exceptional dishes like grilled calamari, octopus, and a variety of dips, all complemented by the restaurant's delicious olive oil. Customers appreciate the pretty decorations and the inviting decor inside. Portions are pretty big, so guests should keep that in mind when ordering.

Eleni's values its customers, making them feel like honored guests, and offers a wide range of "non-normal" dishes for those seeking unique culinary experiences. Recent reviews highlight favorites like the chicken souvlaki, which is well prepared and tender, and the dip sampler, which includes five different dips with tasty warm pita triangles. While some dishes, like the swordfish and the special of the day, received mixed reviews regarding texture and value, the overall experience remains enjoyable.

Guests have also praised the salads, especially for their amazing feta and fresh veggies, and the chocolate mousse as a decadent dessert. Although some items could be improved, such as the crispiness of the pita and the preparation of certain side dishes, Eleni's remains a fine place to come for an evening, with plans for return visits focused on specific favorites like the salad and dips.
