"My experience at this place was simply exceptional. From the moment I walked in, I was captivated by the unique decor that created a cozy yet elegant ambiance. Every detail had been carefully thought out, from the dim lighting to the decorative elements that added a touch of sophistication.
The background music was perfectly selected, at a volume that allowed for effortless conversation while also adding to the overall enjoyment. It created a pleasant atmosphere that contributed to the overall experience.
I started the evening with a Negroni with mezcal, a bold choice that resulted in a surprisingly balanced and delicious cocktail. The seafood appetizer of the day was a burst of fresh and exquisite flavors, clearly showcasing the chef's talent in masterfully combining ingredients.
The tomato salad was a refreshing delight, highlighting the quality of the ingredients used. However, the highlight of the night was the dish of tuna with wheat and chanterelle mushrooms. Chef Ivan showcased his mastery in creating a combination of flavors and textures that was simply spectacular. The smoky touch added a unique and indescribable dimension that had to be experienced to be understood.
The company of my daughter made this dinner even more special, and the photos we took perfectly capture the beauty of each dish. I want to extend my sincere praise to the chef and the entire team behind this culinary experience. Their attention to detail and passion for cooking were reflected in every dish that arrived at our table.
In summary, my experience at this restaurant was simply perfect. The decor, music, food, and service all came together to create an unforgettable evening. Without a doubt, I recommend everyone to visit this place and enjoy a culinary experience that exceeds all expectations. Bravo to Chef Ivan and his team!"
First time eating at this restaurant and it was an amazing experience. Friendliest staff we've ever had in a restaurant (all staff was amazing, but I want to give a big shoutout to Niko in particular!!!)
My friend and I enjoyed the food as well. The octopus and the pork ribs were well seasoned and tender. Nice and fresh tzatziki (I will be honest, the pita was slightly burned but it still had flavour).
Totally recommend eating here.
Amazing service and hospitality! This place had been on mine/wife list for such a long time and only wished we went sooner!
Food is delicious! Staff is warm and amazing! Have been back a few times and will be returning soon!
Took longer to get handed the menus than to get the food after ordering. Had to ask a second time for my drink order after it was missing when everyone else at the table got theirs.
Out of our party of 6, everyone enjoyed their food.
Excellent food. Excellent service. Excellent wines. Excellent atmosphere.
I ordered the New York Steak (medium). Highly recommend. I was able to try the lamb chops which were just as good. Our table loved the wines. As well as the octopus appetizer. Every dish was delicious. You cannot go wrong.
Great Greek Place. The owner is great. Bartender young woman was lovely, we were here for a doctor's meeting and Niko served our group. Food is great, we had great Greek wines, nice desserts. Appies are amazing, try the grilled octopus, saganaki, greek salad, galamari, and lambshank, lamb chops, or grilled whole fish selections which is fresh, charred on the outside and steamy inside.
Definitely is pricey but the food is excellent. Just have to learn not to over order.
Ben and Fernando were fantastic, they made the experience memorable.
Food is great every time!
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Elia in Brooklyn, and it was truly an outstanding experience. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted by the friendly staff, and the welcoming ambiance of the restaurant made us feel right at home.
The menu at Elia is nothing short of incredible. The variety of dishes available is impressive, and each one we tried was better than the last. The ingredients were fresh and perfectly prepared, with a true attention to detail that made each dish stand out. From the classic Greek appetizers to the main courses and desserts, everything was simply delicious. The octopus, lambchops, and branzino were some of my favorites!!!!
But it wasn't just the food that impressed us. The service at Elia was exceptional. I highly recommend Elia to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience in Brooklyn. Whether you're looking for a romantic dinner for two or a family celebration, Elia is the perfect choice. Five stars all around!
Wonderful formal (tablecloth) dining experience. Branzino was an excellent portion and perfectly seasoned. (When we went we dined, there was a pungent sewer odor in the restaurant. We felt they could’ve closed for the courtesy if it’s customers. I believe they’ve since fixed it.) Great location.
I have dined at Elia for many years and has always been a go to neighborhood spot of mine.
One cannot go wrong with the menu options. Some favorites include the roasted beet salad with whipped goat cheese and candied walnuts, avgolemono soup and the chicken entree might be one of the best out there.
In a neighborhood with such a diverse array of global food options this should definitely be at the top of your list, especially if you are looking for more than just a casual take out meal.
Staff and service are excellent, as well as the cocktails. Always a pleasure a dining at Elia.
Delicious, delicious and delicious! Their baklava is to die for ! Had a great time , the service is amazing ( I had a young lady in blue top as my server ) and she was awesome 👏 I will most definitely come back again :)
Very nice place. Not sure if tablet menu is the right choice for this particular place. I feel like real menu would be better for the atmosphere. Other than that, the food, service and atmosphere were great. I had grilled shrimps - highly recommend them.
Amazing dinner. Loved the ambience and the lamb shank. Very warm and friendly wait staff.
GREAT FOOD & THE STAFF IS GREAT THE BEST GREAK FOOD 🥘 N BAY RIDGE
This restaurant is fantastic. The staff is extremely friendly and the food is wonderful. Great wine selection and vibe. It’s relatively empty at least on the weekends. Definitely try some appetizers, they have one which they set on fire.
