Had a midsized party here and boy did it not disappoint. The bar is perfectly situated around the entire space so it is easy to get a drink. The owners are super nice and made it easy to want to go back!

Underwhelming. We wait 26 min for a octopus, when arrived couldn't be further from the one advertised (undercooked, watery, and so small). The service was lacking of everything, beyond not checking once, the server didn't do the basic, as we order octopus and a dessert to come at the same: put a spoon on table. Of course after waiting 26 minutes, asking for a spoon result to additional wait, so I had to go get one by myself at the bar. Rush eating to be on time at our show.

Amazing food, music and staff.

The staff was very welcoming and nice. We went in on a Friday and there was some live music playing which added to the experience. The food was delicous.

Amazing food! The filet mignon (medium rare) was cooked perfectly, the lamb chop sliders were packed with flavor, and the tuna tartare was fresh and delicious. Can’t wait to come back!

Came for the happy hour, 4-6pm every day, enjoyed their $1 oysters with a glass of Vermentino. Divine. Perfect spot for a date night or a chill evening with friends and family! Plenty of outside seating options!

I stopped by while on vacation from Italy and I couldn’t have picked a better spot for dinner. The food was full of flavor and perfectly cooked, the staff couldn’t have been nicer, and the drinks were fantastic. Such a cozy vibe that made me feel right at home, even in the middle of New York.

One of my favorite spots on the UWS! The owner, Elis, who also frequents behind the bar, is very attentive and knowledgeable, and always greets us with a hug! The food and wine are consistently delicious (we love the mushroom pie, the branzino, and the double brisket burger!) and the vibes are always exactly what we’re looking for - buzzing, but not too loud or overwhelming. Live music on weekend evenings with dancing and fun, followed by a huge napkin toss that always makes us laugh. Excellent neighborhood spot!

Elis is truly one of the best restaurants in the neighborhood. Vibe and music are always on point, staff is attentive and friendly, while also not ever rushing. Elis and Artur always have a warm welcome and a smile. Aside from all of this, the food is consistently delicious, always fresh, fabulous presentation. Their cocktails are so fun, and their wine list is unmatched (personally I’m a fan of the Riesling 😉). This is a forever favorite!
