We were thankful they had industrial sized fans to help keep everyone cool. We started with the Empanada Trio - DELICIOUS! The cheese one wasn't our favorite but when paired with the other two, it all worked. For drinks we had the Peach Old Fashioned and The Pineapple Forever Young. Both were good and strong. I really loved the Campanella Monterey Mushroom. I added chicken breast for protein. The serving is so big! I took half of it home and ate the rest with with baked salmon. My husband couldn't say enough about the Surf and Turf. He said the flavors were amazing. The steak was tender and delicious and all the vegetables were cooked perfectly. My husband wants to come back with his friends to try the Parrillada Argentina BBQ (for 3 people) Misc: We only say one gender neutral bathroom with a changing table. There are no toilet seat covers. It was roomy and clean.

We had a reservation right when they opened at 5 so it was fairly quiet when we came in but it started to get busy quick. Great service and generous portions. The bread was ok. The meatballs are huge and very flavorful. Sauce on the spaghetti was fresh. The dinner specials are such a nice variety but I had to get pasta! The pesto was so delicious very flavorful and giant portion with tons of flavor. Added chicken and it was juicy and cooked perfect. Everyone enjoyed their dishes and we can't wait to come back.

We ended up at De La Torre's last week after our original birthday dinner plans fell through…read morebecause another downtown restaurant lost power. The experience started off poorly. We arrived around 7:45 PM, with closing at 8:30 PM. The server outside did not seem happy to see us, and once inside there was no greeting or anyone to seat us. I had to go back and ask for a table. Throughout the evening, the owner or hostess also made us feel like our late arrival was an inconvenience. The one bright spot was our server. He was welcoming, never rushed us, and even surprised our daughter with a complimentary birthday dessert after learning we were celebrating. That thoughtful gesture was the highlight of the evening. The food was just average. The capellini was especially disappointing, as it was bland and lacked flavor. Overall, nothing we ordered really stood out. Between the average food and the unwelcoming atmosphere, this is not a place we would return to, despite the excellent service from our server

Everything was fabulous and my grandmother immediately decided this is the place to come back to with our group for her birthday next month. Thank you!!

We waited for around half an hour until there was a table for us even with reservation. The staff was really accommodating and even moved us inside when it started to rain.

Then we ordered the Brussels sprouts, blackened chicken rigatoni, chicken parmesan pasta, and bread pudding. We also ordered the lemon drop cocktail. Everything was delicious.

The food was subpar quality once actually delivered.. I wish I could say what they did well but they refused to even talk to us post incident even blocked the phone number which was incredibly childish and unprofessional.. We disputed it on our credit card and they tried to fight back, but the evidence was overwhelming and we won the dispute so that says it all about this restaurants service. Don't use them for catering.

We did a full inside restaurant buyout and had the option to select several appetizers, two salads and four entrees from the menu. Of all the places I researched, this was the only one that was willing to do a full sit down meal (as opposed to a buffet). The restaurant is very pretty (and photogenic) and there was plenty of space for our guests to mingle before the food service began. The food was outstanding as were the desserts. We couldn't have been more pleased with how our party turned out. I highly recommend Elia if you are looking for an excellent meal or party venue.

Love how open the restaurant is with windows and natural lighting. The food was alright and pretty expensive. We individually ordered, but shared like family style including appetizers. We tried the Saganaki $17.00+ Skillet-fried flaming kefalothiri cheese, brandy, lemon? It was okay. To me, it just tasted like cheese topping from a slice of pizza. It was cool to see it being lit on fire though. I did like the fried calamari, that was delicious especially with the sauce. I ordered the mushroom and spinach omelette $19. It came with potatoes and fruit like watermelon. It was decent, I mean it's an omelette so what can I say, lol. The serving size was perfect to share. Our server was good. The woman who helped us clean our plates and refilled our water was very attentive as well. The bathrooms were clean, two stalls. Parking is available in the back or on the street.
