    I come to Ella's often and they continue to impress on all levels of performance. I especially like their salads for when you add a protein it is exceptional in the way it is served warm, not hot and adds to the overall flavor of the salad. Not an inexpensive dining experience, but worth it.

    Took a while to get served. They did provide us free bread service for the inconvenience of being out of something. The food was ok. The salad was very good. The pork chop was a little salty and the side vegetables were cold. Drinks were good.
