    The restaurant was short staffed, but the only server, Veronica, did her best to keep everyone happy. She was very attentive. The food was wonderful. We will definitely dine here again.

    Well, the service and the building is great. The food, not so much. We started with the French toast sticks. It was basically greasy break sticks. The burrito wasn’t very good, just lacked flavor and the steak was chewy, it also came with a bowl of Marinara that tasted like it was from a can. Why was that even paired with it?? 10/10 would not return. Oh and the iced coffee is literally milk. Server was super sweet and cute restaurant atheistic.

    Portions were good sized but many of the dishes were missing something - just not delicious.

    We had a very good dinner. The service was great. It was a busy night but everything ran smoothly. We had the Pecan cake for dessert. It was very good but big enough for 4 people.

    Sat outside because it was very noisy inside. Service started great… but by the end of our meal, our server was non-existent. Ordered vanilla ice cream bc the marinara was acidic and it was never brought out. The food could have been better without being drenched in marinara sauce.

    The restaurant is small and very loud! We were seated at a high top in the corner and had difficulty getting up and down from the chairs. The food was amazing and the service attentive.
    Ella’s by Christian PetroniResponded 7 days ago

We’re sorry that the seating wasn’t as comfortable as we had hoped, and we truly appreciate you letting us know.
