    Very kind and professional staff. Parking was easy. I had the horiatiki salad and a side of tzatziki. I loved both and thought the value for the food was excellent. I recommend and would return. Great experience. :)

    On a beautiful spring evening, the service, and food were wonderful. And the pavilion and play area with gleeful kids provided humorous entertainment. We loved it! Caveat, if reserving a table outside in the summer check out which band plays in the pavilion that weekend!

    Had a wonderful birthday celebration lunch at restaurant! Our server, Wellington, was awesome, helpful in understanding the menu options, and attentive to our luncheon needs! As we chatted, ate, and dined over 2 hours, we were never rushed and the food was very good! Will return for sure!

    Another outstanding visit to Ela Mesa, this time with visiting family! Had two entree specials (lamb and halibut) and one classic entree (chicken). Our server Wellington (yes, his real name) was superb. We sat outside in the perfect evening weather. This has become one of our regular places now, alone or with guests. The outstanding food, drinks, and ambiance here never disappoint.

    I recently had the pleasure of dining at Ela Mesa Taste of Greece, and I can’t stop thinking about the incredible experience. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm welcome and seated promptly in a cozy, inviting atmosphere. The service was top-notch, with attentive staff who made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The food was absolutely fantastic! We started with the [starter dish], which was bursting with flavor and perfectly balanced. For the main course, I tried the [main dish], and it was cooked to perfection—tender, juicy, and packed with bold, fresh ingredients. The sides complemented the meal beautifully, with each bite more satisfying than the last. Overall, Ela Mesa Taste of Greece offers a culinary experience that I can’t recommend enough. Whether you’re here for a special occasion or just a casual night out, you’re in for a treat. I can’t wait to return!

    The restaurant has a lovely environment (though noise echoes making it hard to hear). Boris’ service was delightful and the food was delicious. We loved the taste of orange honey cake at the conclusion of the meal. Looking forward to going back.
