  • So in the spectrum of Greek restaurants, I would call Ellada great but not quite off-the-charts. They aim for the upper middle range and hit it just right. We had an unusually large group and they opened an hour early for us, which is a particularly remarkable level of service outside the US. The service was attentive but not intrusive and very accommodating. The food was fresh and tasted great. We were greeted with a mound of traditional village white bread and olives steeped in oil oregano and rosemary. One person made a comment that they would have liked butter, but kept on dipping, so it probably wasn't a big deal. A series of samplers came out in sequence followed by a particularly good Greek salad and finished off with a mixed grill of lamb, pork, chicken and beef. After all, Greek cuisine is about simple peasant food prepared with care. Freshness and seasoning is paramount, any error is glaring. The fact that all the food was spot on speaks volumes! In fact, one of my frequent beefs is greasy fried food due to improper preparation and maintenance of the fryer. We had both calamari as an appetizer and lokoumades for dessert and both were exceptional in being hot, crispy and not greasy at all! One of my little quirks is to check out the men's bathroom as a predictor of the quality of the food. Restaurants that aspire to some greatness but don't have the resources renovate the women's restroom first. Here the WC has some cool design elements, echoing the main dining hall's tile and sculptural motif. They also had a DJ the Saturday night we were there, but we left before the party got going, so I'm not sure why he was playing the boring stuff he was playing. The background music during our dinner was way better! As you can tell, I was impressed, but To justify the 5-star review (because they are not a "Milos"): they don't aspire to a celebrity dining moniker and they are a much better value with food that is probably as good with a notch lower ambience and service. They achieve their dining niche with unusual flair.
