I feel like me and my partner have really high standards when it comes to eating out being the foodies we are and this... restaurant was amazing! The restaurant is in a great location and inside feels soo comfortable and well thought out. The serverswere really friendly and I imagine the owner put lots of work into this restaurant. The food was really delicious and this willbe a spot we come to often for sure. The food we ordered came with generous servings, was flavorful and made us full (mypartners a big eater and even he was full!) Thank you Ela Greek Taverna Restaurant! Read more

Thank you for the perfect experience! Read more

Lovely atmosphere and some of the very best food I've eaten. My one complaint is that my friends and I had made a tradition of... going and sharing the Greek Platter. It was the perfect amount of food for each of us (a hard balance to find) and gave asizable sampling of a variety of Greek dishes. Sadly this dish was recently removed from the menu to our great chagrin. Speakingpersonally I would be hugely thankful if that dish made a return for everyone to enjoy as well. With that one change they wouldsurely earn that fifth star. Read more

My wife went with her friends . She said the food was pathetic and tasteless. Service was extremely slow and servers were very... rude . Food quantity and quality was very low . Its a failed restaurant. Luckily I have not tried this restaurant and dont planto. I hate bad service. Such restaurant should be shut down doesn?t matter even if it is local. Simply get lost. The irony is Itold my wife almost 10 times not to go to Ela. Avoid it . The restaurant looks gloomy and a dead place by the look of it . Wellhere she is regretting. Posting food pics incase people want to take a look at what they are served at this horrific place . 0rating and thumbs down. Read more

We love Ela but, based in our last visit they may be slipping. Waitress told us coffee would be delayed while they brewed a... fresh pot. The coffee which arrived was little more than warm, clearly not fresh. We sent a glass of water back because it haddried food encrusted on the rim. On drinking our coffee my mug had a ring stain half way down from the previous user. The mughad clearly not been washed properly, if at all. They had run out of mint jelly for our lamb. Overall, lots of littlefrustrations throughout, all avoidable. Read more
