IMHO We chose Elia because it is an InKind restaurant that gives a 10% discount when paying with their app. Check it out. Elia took over the space that once housed another Greek restaurant, Opa. I initially thought it would be too hot to sit outside on their patio, but in hindsight, indoor dining would've been too loud for my sensitive ears! We had a great table outdoors, well-shaded from the afternoon sun with their discreetly placed umbrellas. Francisco serviced our table and Johanna took our drink and menu orders. Both were very friendly and an asset to this establishment. Happily, we arrived just before the end of Happy Hour, so we took advantage of it and ordered almost everything on their HH menu but still had intentions of ordering off the main dinner menu. When you see the pictures of all that we ordered, you will understand why we didn't need to order more. And yet we still ordered dessert. The food was pretty darn good. There were a few misses, but generally we enjoyed everything. My tip is to dine during happy hour for the best prices and a good choice of menu offerings. Service was friendly and available. When it lacked, it was due to the busy crowd. The place was hopping on a Friday night, and it was fun to people watch. Will we return? You bet!!! read more

I really wanted to like Elia, especially since it replaced Opa, but there were simply too many service missteps for us to consider coming back. We visited on a Wednesday night when the restaurant wasn't busy, which made the experience even more surprising. After being seated, no server ever came to greet us. We eventually flagged down someone who appeared to be a manager to order drinks. She later returned to say our drink order was in and took our dinner order. Then the food started arriving before the drinks, which is always frustrating. We ordered the saganaki, but it came without bread. We had to ask for it separately, and by the time the bread arrived, the cheese had already cooled off. We also ordered sparkling water, yet a busser repeatedly tried to top off our glasses with still water. It sounds minor, but it's another example of the lack of attention to detail. Once all of our food arrived, we were essentially forgotten. No one checked on us, no one asked if we needed anything, and when we were ready to leave, we had to ask the hostess for our check. After waiting again, we finally got up and went looking for someone to process our payment. At that point, it honestly crossed my mind that we could have just walked out. The restaurant seems very focused on creating a trendy, Instagram-worthy atmosphere, but the basics of hospitality just weren't there. A beautiful space can't make up for disorganized service. I genuinely wish them success, but they'll need to fix the fundamentals quickly if they want people to return. read more

Tonight we celebrated our 18th anniversary and we absolutely fell in love with Elia's new Campbell location! We're huge fans of Greek cuisine, so seeing all the Elia dishes we've loved at this beautiful new restaurant made us so happy. We especially enjoy dining outdoors, and the patio is absolutely gorgeous--warm, inviting, and such a relaxing place to spend the evening. The atmosphere alone made our dinner feel special. The service was outstanding from start to finish. Everyone was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Most importantly, every dish was a work of art. You can tell that each plate is prepared with great care and attention to detail. The presentation was beautiful, and the flavors were exceptional. We had such a wonderful evening and left very happy. This is an amazing new location, and we'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend! read more

Elia restaurant: This Greek restaurant has been open now in downtown Campbell for about 2 months. The atmosphere is absolutely fabulous, I could tell they spent a lot of time thinking about every aspect of the interior, from brick white walls to archways, they transformed this place into a little slice of Greek culture with soft Greek music playing in the back ground "Absolutely beautiful" 5 ++++ stars The the service here is fantastic, they continued to fill our glasses with water, they do not rush you, our waitress knew the menu inside and out and was super helpful, as we were contemplating about five different dishes because everything looks so good" 5++++stars. They Change plates and utensils in between servings and the plates are beautiful 5stars. While we waited for our food we were given 2 nice pieces of bread with a Tapenade Dip, let me tell you...that dip with capers in it is something special " it had a light Kalamata olive flavor" 5 stars. We ordered an appetizer of calamari that comes with sliced fried habanero peppers. The Habanero peppers slices were so good that I found myself hunting for them on the plate. The gave us nice big pieces of tentacles with Calamari and everything was cooked to perfection "not chewy at all" unfortunately I did feel that they were too oily, the oil did not detract from the flavor however, the oil is a little heavy on the stomach. Flavor 5 stars, prep due to excess oil 2 stars... 3 stars total. "I probably will order it again anyways because of those peppers" I ordered the Keftedes Meatballs: 3 lamb & beef meatballs with a Greek salad and a big piece of feta cheese. The meatballs were light and airy, not dense and chewy at all. The salad was what I'd expected from traditional Greek culture, with big chunks of tomatoes, cucumber, black, and green olives and more! The flavor was wonderful: a couple negatives about the salad was that they were very heavy handed with the olive oil, they put way way way way too much olive oil on the salad "I mean it was drenched in olive oil, a little goes a long way" also the chips were soggy, again with the oil. Last but not least, the salad on the same plate with the meatballs...I found it clunky & very hard to eat the salad without making a mess all over the table. All that being said it's was still a very good dish and I enjoyed the leftovers c-: 3.5 stars Wifey ordered the Kotopoulo Souvlaki: chicken thigh skewers with couscous and fruit inside . Wifey said she loved the dish, I tasted the chicken skewers, let me just say that they were extremely juicy and flavorful 5 stars. Overall rating 3.7 I feel that 3 stars would be an injustice so I'm giving them 4. I took off 1 star for the heavy handed olive oil and greasy calamari and soggy chips. Other things of interest: They have Indoor & outdoor seating and a full bar. read more

Here with friends last night and got stuck with the worst table in the back by the restroom, with the sun reflecting off a mirror right into our eyes...very uncomfortable. Manager was nice about it, so not a big deal there. Service was the challenge...very rough. Took forever to get our order in. Our waiter was brusque and oddly very sweaty. There was one time where he came over with a cocktail from another table and said it was going back. I joked and said, you can leave it here and he very brusquely said..."I am going to drink it". At one point food was served to my friend and just as they were about to dig in, a staff member rushed back and yanked the plate away without a word because it was the wrong order... they told us that when they came back with basically one less chicken skewer on the plate. Very odd and awkward. Food was okay, but the service cast a real pall. Not coming back! read more

Came here last week with my coworkers for a birthday lunch. The inside of the restaurant is so pretty, the color, the vibe, felt like if you were in Greece. The customer service was great. The owner of the restaurant was very nice and helpful with what items on the menu were gluten free. I ordered the coconut ceviche, the ceviche was served with a real coconut shell. The juice of the coconut is served in a wine glass. The coconut juice and the ceviche tasted fresh. For the price of the ceviche I wish the portion size was a little more. Everyone else seems to enjoy their food. Definitely will be back again. read more

Elia - Inside sitting area - Mediterranean Near Me - Campbell, California

Greek Season Fourth location for this Bay Area chain of Greek restaurants, but their first one in the South Bay. This one is located in Downtown Campbell, ironically at the old, shuttered Opa! which occupied this spot for many, many years (RIP). Elia promises authentic Greek flavors using hand-curated, seasonal items and a strong bar program in a casual, but elegant environment that's good for a casual lunch or a fancy date night dinner. The Good: * Reservations via OpenTable * Free street and lot parking (more on this later). * Live music Friday nights * They have three different menus: Brunch, Lunch, and Dinner * Downtown Campbell is one of our favorite local downtowns. * Dog-friendly outdoor dining * Booths!!! We love booths :) * Beers on tap, as well as a full bar. I ordered the El Greko and thought it was fantastic! It was muy fuerte, but not so much so that I'd consider it boozy. The perfect mix between flavor and alcohol. * Moussaka was good, but I felt like it needed just a rich more seasoning to put it over the top from good to great. * Carissa loved her Horataki (Greek) Salad w/ Salmon add-on, as all the ingredients were fresh and delicious, and the salmon was cooked perfectly. * Roasted Cauliflower app (aka Kounoupidu Tou Fornou) had good flavor, but we wish they had roasted the cauliflower just a bit more as it was still very crunchy. Also needed a bit of salt, but otherwise it was yummy. The Meh: * Service was good to start, as we were all yucking it up and having a good time with our waitress, but by the end she was ghosting us and didn't seem quite as convivial towards us. Not sure if it was something we said or...?? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ * They only had one beer on tap at the time of our visit. I give them a break since they just opened not too long ago and are still sorting things out, but c'mon... =/ * It's a little pricey for what you get but it's Campbell. So... yeah. The Ugly: * Parking in Downtown Campbell can be a bear at certain times (mostly weekends and Fri evenings). So if you have a reservation, make sure you allow plenty of time for parking. Conclusion: Welcome new addition to Downtown Campbell as there's always room for some high-end Greek food. read more

Beautiful restaurant, fun vibe, delicious food, good service. This place replaced Opa in downtown Campbell and has a huge front patio seating, and beautiful interior with arches, blue wall accents, (faux) bougainvilleas and plants all over. Very dreamy interior. The menu is also fairly intriguing and there were many items we wanted to try. For starters we had the Pikilia a sampler plate of Tzatziki, roasted bell pepper dip, and a chunky eggplant dip. (I gave up on spelling the last two dips by their official name..) We loved all three dips- I am an eggplant lover and loved the chunky eggplant one, and mixed with the tzatziki was like a chef's kiss. Comes with pita along with thing slivers of cucumber and carrots to dip. Also ordered the Beet Salad- an arugula beet salad is generally pretty standard, but I liked the twist of these mini sandwiches of a purple beet and yellow beet slices with goat cheese mousse between them. Fun! From the appetizers we also had the Octopus which was a beautifully plated and juicy arm. For our entrees we had the chicken kebab which comes with two juicy and large kebab sticks, a side salad, and a cous cous/raisin side, so it was a pretty hearty and flavorful dish. Loved that they had two fish on the menu- we opted for the seabass, which is served as a whole fish, with a nice crisp skin and tender interior. comes with really juicy potatoes as well and broccolini. Overall we loved the food- fun spot for a girls' night out or a date! read more

A popular, high-traffic corner spot in Downtown Campbell that somehow transports you to Greece without the jet lag, passport, or having to explain to your bank why you suddenly have international charges. The liquor display and decor are beautiful enough that I briefly considered redecorating my house. The service is top tier, (BEKIR is the man) the music sets the mood, and whether you sit inside or outside, there really isn't a bad seat. The drinks were refreshing, and the staff actually looked happy to be there--which in 2026 deserves a five-star review all by itself. What an awesome addition to Downtown Campbell. I came for the atmosphere and cocktails, but apparently this place turns up after hours. I've heard they party a bit too, so I may need to return for some "further research." Strictly for scientific purposes, of course. PS : try the "Fire of Olympus" buzz button flower garnish for a once in a lifetime experience. read more

Overall experience was excellent, ambience reminded me of my time in Greece and Turkey, but what stood out most was our the world-class service from Furkan, our server. Really appreciated his check-ins with us and had warm conversations with us, which really elevated our experience. We were greeted with a complimentary olive tapenade and warm bread rolls. For our appetizer, we ordered a delicious grilled octopus argula salad and for our main course, we went with the chicken souvlaki and creamy mushroom risotto. No notes for the food! We'll definitely be back for the food and we hope to have Furkan as our server again! read more

I really wanted to love Elia because the restaurant itself is beautiful, the atmosphere has a great vibe, and the staff were genuinely friendly. Unfortunately, the execution fell short. We were seated at 6:30 PM and were not asked for our food order until around 7:10 PM. During that time, a table seated after us had already received their appetizers and entrees before our order was even taken. While our server was pleasant and courteous, the service felt disorganized and not particularly attentive. As for the food, it was average overall, especially considering the price point. The octopus was overcooked, and the lobster in both the paella and the bucatini pasta was also overcooked, which was disappointing. The cauliflower lacked flavor and was pretty bland. The cocktails looked great but tasted watered down, with more juice than alcohol. The standout dish at our table was the lamb shank. My husband thoroughly enjoyed it, and it was easily the best item we ordered. Overall, Elia has a beautiful setting and a friendly staff, but it feels like they're still trying to find their rhythm when it comes to service and execution. Not a bad experience, but for the prices being charged, I expected more consistency and attention to detail. read more

Elia is a small chain Greek restaurant that just opened in downtown Campbell. The place took over from Ola and is a big upgrade. It's nicely decorated and clean. The service is great, friendly and efficient. I think our waiter was the front of house manager. We got the spanakotiropita which is basically spanakopita with cheese and is very difficult to spell and pronounce. Anyway it was served quickly and hot. It has really good flavor but the two pieces seem quite small for $15. The seafood paella was just ok. There was a decent amount of scallops and ground chicken. The salmon was minimal but there was a decent chunk of lobster. It has a fishy smell but didn't taste bad. The seasoning was a bit overpowering. Honestly though, teleferic has better paella. We tried to provide feedback but the waiter didn't seem interested. I'll probably go back but probably order different items. read more

This restaurant opened only a few days ago and we were excited to try this location. Plenty of free public parking in downtown Campbell. This place has an outdoor area and a beautiful indoor area. We were greeted immediately upon arrival. They had both the breakfast and lunch menu when we went. There is free bread upon arrival with dip, the bread was warm and the dip tasted great. We ordered the calamari and the eggplant appetizers, both tasted okay. The calamari was not as crispy as we would have liked while the eggplant appetizer tasted good, I felt like it could have used a bit more salt. Now onto the main course. We had the seafood paella and seafood bucatini. These took a while to come out, which is totally understandable, the dishes looked and tasted delicious! The seafood was fresh and plenty. We even had enough to take home. We also ordered the truffle mushroom soup which was so good! I would order that again for next time. Customer service was excellent and they kept refilling our waters without having to ask and kept checking on us. We wanted to walk around downtown after and we were worried about our seafood left overs as it was a warm day, the staff were more than happy to pack it up for us with ice so it stays nice and cool. Thank you Elia, we had a wonderful time and we would definitely come back! read more

It was my first time at Elia; from the reservation, greeting and services it was above and beyond in courtesy, professionalism and a pleasant experience. My friends and I loved the food, which was rich in flavor, appearance and a true Greek cuisine - super delicious. The ambience was super cozy, very traditional Greek style and the decoration super nice. Indoors or outdoor the experience was very positive. The only thing that will probably hold me to go back are the prices of drinks and entrees. Maybe a bit high for my budget, but the place is pretty good and I certainly recommend. read more

Elia - Mediterranean Near Me - Campbell, California

We had a nice meal here for a date night! Overall the food was decent, the atmosphere was charming and the service was excellent! Very attentive. Delicious cocktails! My husband had the lobster pasta-why are prawns so often used on menus when it's so clearly shrimp? That said, the dish was flavorful and generous. I had the lamb chops which were perfectly cooked. And they did not skimp-which was refreshing considering the price! Unfortunately, the Brussels sprouts were not done. Neither was the cauliflower appetizer-both perfect a couple days later when we finished them in our oven at home. Hope they'll iron this out before another visit. Nice to see another Greek restaurant in downtown Campbell! I think we'll try brunch next time! read more

Elia - Lamb Chops - Mediterranean Near Me - Campbell, California

I was so excited to try this place, but was quickly disappointed. Ambiance: 3/5 I came on Friday evening around 5:45pm. My party of two was seated pretty quickly inside. The tables are really closed to each other but luckily it was super busy at that time. Very lively staff and bar area was packed. Food : 2/5 stars I don't know if flavor was off because restaurant opened not too long ago but some dishes had zero flavor while others were too salty. Also, there was feta cheese on everything even though it was listed on menu. - fries - it was so bland - prawn appetizer - this is classic dish but somehow it came with feta cheese crumble on top (threw off the flavor so it was not good at all) - roasted cauliflower - also came with feta cheese on top (called out in menu) but it was sooo salty - chicken souvlaki - chicken was not very seasoned or lacked some salt. It was so bland. Service: 3/5 - our waiter was super friendly, though he barely checked on us. - one of our cocktail (tito and sprite came out wrong he gave is tito and tonic and we had to flag down bus boy to get our waiter). - our fries and prawns cane out fairly quickly. Then crickets... we waited forever for cauliflower and were disappointed with the flavor. We barely touched it. So our waiter was nice enough to take it off our bill. After the cauliflower, we waited some more for our entree. At this point restaurant was beginning to fill up. We didn't stick around for dessert - didn't want to risk waiting or disappointed with flavor. read more

Let's begin with the good. Elia is beautiful, inside and out. The outdoor patio is shaded, comfortable, and sits on one of the best people watching corners in downtown Campbell. The interior decor is just as nicely done. Genuinely the only nice thing about this place when we went. Everything else fell short for the price when you can go to Dish n Dash or even Doppio Zero down the street. The trio dip was actually good, but at $29 (only a dollar less than the steak and eggs on brunch) it's not $30 good. It's just an appetizer, and we were expecting more for that price: more pita, plus other dipping vehicles like veggies or extra sides. As it stood there wasn't nearly enough to go around. Charging a minimum of $12 just to add protein to a dish is also steep. Service had real growing pains: we watched maybe seven guys standing around watching FIFA while tables nearby waited on food, drink orders, and water. We were never offered a brunch menu even though another table got one on a Sunday. The inside dining room was completely empty on a Sunday, so it's hard to understand why it still took forever just to get a beer and a Coke. We ended up asking for our drinks again after the food arrived. The food itself was mid at best. The gyro sandwich was fine, flavorful enough but just a sandwich, nothing special. My husband's salmon Benedict I didn't care for at all. Our son's cheese pizza was the worst part, tasted like a frozen pie straight from the freezer aisle, raw in spots with that cardboard flavor. Skip the $10 kids pizza entirely. For what restaurants are doing now, even at Yard House their kids pizza is homemade and really tasty! It also came out 15 minutes before the rest of our food when it should have been together. With newer spots popping up around South Bay like Eos & Nyx and Strata raising the bar downtown, Elia just isn't keeping up for what it charges. We'd go to Joey or King's Fish House for lunch or dinner before coming back here or Croissante, The Breakfast Club, or Bloom for brunch. read more

The restaurant is so beautiful! We celebrated a birthday here and the staff made us feel very welcome and celebrated. The food (especially the dessert) was good, but taking off one star because they were out of a majority of the food and drinks we tried to order. As vegetarians, that made dining a little tricky as the menu has very limited vegetarian options. read more

4.5 stars. Deco is good, service is good, food is good, the only reason I took down points is their overall management and I'll elaborate. First off, I was able to make a last minute booking for Father's Day and we were able to snatch a 7:15pm appointment! Upon arriving, there were still plenty of seats outdoor and indoor, so I like the no-pressure no rush environment. Elia, a Greek restaurant that has multiple presence in the Bay Area, is a hot dining place in Campbell. At the corner with its opaque blue and white, it's hard to miss, and it's rather big with all the seating arrangements outside and inside. Even inside, we could choose tables or booth. The booths are cozy with lots of pillows and the table settings have shawls on the back of the chairs for the night chill. It's very inviting and accommodating for long lingering customers. The decoration mimics the cave hotels with the arched white walls, even the bathroom was painted blue, and the floor has the blue wavy lines. The music is upbeat and energetic. The menu has 2 sections, sharable plates on the top and bigger portion plates at the bottom. We chose 4 sharable and big plate to share. We had: - Complementary bread was warm and soft and the olive oil dip was delicious. - Grilled octopus (Octapodaki) which is soft and covered with healthy salad veggie and chopped olives - Roasted califlower (Kounoupidi Tou Fornou) which has big chunks of cauliflower roasted softly and covered with toasted almonds and crumbled feta, - Sea bass ceviche (Coconut Ceviche) which is fresh and sumptuous. I also love the creativity of the dish that inside a fresh coconut, chopped sea bass, halibut, prawns, and mango were stuffed with avocado slices on top and taro chips set aside. You can also scoop out the fresh coconut meat at the end, which is smooth and silky. - Beet Salad: all arugula are coated with goat cheese mousse, it's an interesting way of incorporating Greek elements. - Truffle Mushroom Risotto: can't go wrong with truffle. So all food were tasty and the presentation was nice. Menu was creative, not those boring gyro and skewer kind of Greek food. Service was friendly when you get their attention. But they were busy! Jesse took care of us along with the help of his colleagues and I like that we didn't have to wait for one single waiter but we could reach whoever is available. However, a couple things on my mind. First of all, they could leave a bottle of water on the table and that would eliminate most of the water requests and free up some of the waiter's time, coz those olives can be salty, you know. The whole situation just felt like they were a bit understaffed. At some point, some light switches were mishandled and the light on our booth went off. We waited a few minutes for the lights to get back on but the fact that no one immediately jumped on it to get it fixed left room for improvement. Overall, it was a satisfactory dinner. I wouldn't mind coming back again. read more

Downtown Campbell is a nice area and this place fits right in. Beautiful restaurant with outside seating and a classy bar. The management is very attentive and overall great venue. Six of us came here for dinner on a Wednesday night and it was good to see how busy it was. Our waiter was slow getting to our orders and delivering our drinks. Also, when our food was ready, they delivered all of our entrees and appetizers and different times. I had to wait about five minutes before everyone had their entrees. The food was very good. I had the slow roasted lamb and it was delicious. We all enjoyed our entrees but the slowness, timing and absenteeism of the service was the real issue. It's a really nice place to eat but they need improving on the wait staff to be worth the price of the restaurant. read more

Decent food, yeah spotty service as I am guessing they are still working out the process and the kinks. If it's a nice night, try sitting outside and people watch.

Amazing addition to downtown Campbell! Took over the old opa restaurant and made it upscale. Had the lunch chicken schwarma and it was so so good that I'm ready to go back a week later to get it again. They use chicken thighs and it was super moist and juicy. They have freshly hot buns with an olive oil dip and offered me more since I devoured it before my food came out but I didn't want to spoil my appetite. You know a restaurant is going to be really good if they can get their bread right. The service from the host to waitress was five stars! Super friendly all around. They have indoor and outdoor seating with umbrellas. Will be coming back to cross off other items on the menu! read more

Vibe: 5/5 Service: 4.5/5 Food: 5/5 Drinks: n/a Value: 5/5 Got a taste of Elia during their Boogie festival soft opening, and it was great. We sat outside because it was a nice day. If you're concerned about getting sunburnt or worried about an occasional leaf on your table, you may want to opt for inside seating, as there are no sun umbrellas, at least not at the moment. Monica, our server, was awesome. She was very friendly and paced out our order. When the last dish took a little longer, she apologized and used the opportunity to get us fresh plates. She handled it like a pro. We didn't get to try any of their cocktails, but they looked really good. For food, we got: -Free bread(5/5): A restaurant that doesn't charge for bread gets an automatic extra star. Their rolls were freshly baked and still warm. The complimentary olive tapenade was balanced and not too salty. Love! -Spanakotiropita (5/5): Did you know that when a spanakopita includes cheese, it becomes a spanakotiropita? I didn't either until today. You get two generously filled "spinach pies" encased in airy dough that almost evaporates as soon as it hits your tongue. The feta-spinach combo is full of flavor. It's the best version of this famous Greek dish that I've ever had and an absolute must-order app. -Coconut ceviche (5/5): I love that they serve the ceviche in a freshly halved coconut. You get a little martini glass of the fruit's coconut water and can even eat the inner flesh. As for the ceviche, there was a ton of fresh fish, which you could actually taste thanks to the very mild acidity. I didn't see any of the advertised prawns on the menu, but they weren't missed. The avocado, pickled red onions, and mango chunks added a ton of flavor. Their home-made (?) taro chips were fresh and crispy--another outstanding dish. -Lamb and beef sliders (4.5): These bad boys took quite a while to come out, but didn't disappoint. You could taste both lamb and beef without one overpowering the other. The meat was juicy and perfectly seasoned. Because the bun was quite thick and there wasn't enough sauce, it was a little dry. But after ditching the bread, we could focus on the protein, which was fabulous. Overall, an awesome first experience. We can't wait to come back and try their full menu and those yummy-looking cocktails. read more

Came here Saturday for my friend's birthday and had a great experience! The food was definitely the highlight. We tried several appetizers and entrées, and everything was full of flavor and delicious. I honestly can't pronounce most of the names of the dishes, so I'm not even going to try listing them . The drinks were also refreshing and really good. Our server was great, very attentive, explained the menu well, and checked on us throughout dinner. I forgot his name, but we talked with him and I remember he was Turkish and his name was a little hard for me to remember, sorry about that! We also met Bekir, the manager/owner, who was really nice and welcoming and came by to check on us. The restaurant is new, clean, and has a great atmosphere. We had a nice booth by the window, and the bussers and hostesses were also very helpful. I was visiting friends from LA, but I'll definitely come back whenever I'm in the area! read more

I wanted to like this place... but my friends and I were beyond irritated by our experience here. It felt like they prioritize their social media appearance far more than their overall service. My friends and I came here on Saturday for my birthday dinner 9:30pm, reservation for four at a booth. 1. We got sat directly in front of the kitchen door. The restaurant was dimly lit, so whenever someone came in or out of the kitchen, it felt like a blast of bright light. Would not recommend booth seating unless you're looking for more privacy. 2. No one helped us or checked on us. Had to ask several times for things. 3. Seemed like servers focused more on the bottle service experience, rather than selling that experience to every table. I would appreciate a better balance. 4. I understand the fun of sparklers, but it made the whole place smell like fireworks and humid. Moral of the story, the ambience, food, and drinks deserve the hype. The staff were pretty friendly as well. I recommend not going after 8pm if you want a quiet and chill dining experience, or perhaps sit outside. read more

Five star! So glad Elia has opened, absolutely delicious food, fun ambience and the owners and staff are great, friendly, attentive . We've tried so much of the menu, ceviche and shrimp appetizers delicious, grilled artichoke so good. Filet mignon and chicken souvlaki perfectly cooked. Lamb shank - delicate and hearty at the same time. Last night the scallop appetizer cooked to perfection and the Halibut- combination of flavors was unique and delicious. Highly recommend! read more

A tad pricey, but the omelette, potatoes and fruit I had for brunch were great. Bread rolls were pretty tasty. Service is a little slow, but our server was friendly and courteous. A friend ordered hot green tea and he raved about it. Need to see what the dinner service is like! read more

Came to celebrate wedding anniversary with Mediterranean and Greek cuisine. Made reservation for two for Sunday night @ 6pm. Arrived and seated on a small table for two by the entrance. Realize the table was too small for what we're about to order and request one of the empty booths. Hostess seated us after checking if it was reserved or not. Our server came by after bread and water was served and we ordered Fitvine Sparkling non-alcoholic chardonnay to toast the occasion. Then the calamari and grilled cauliflower for appetizers with the main courses of Moussaka and today's special of Swordfish as our server suggested. The calamari were very tender, and the grilled cauliflower was exceptionally flavorful. Moussaka was excellent and the Swordfish presentation with mango salsa, grilled asparagus and small potatoes more than satisfied my palate. Greek music was playing throughout the evening, and many diners were seating on the patio as it was a warm and comfortable evening. All the restaurant staff was very accommodating and definitely be back soon. read more

We tried Elia in Campbell for the first time and it was really good! We started with the fried olives and then enjoyed the Kokkinisto lamb shank, seafood paella, and kotopoulo souvlaki. Everything was flavorful and well prepared. The service was excellent. Jovana took great care of us, and John was always checking in to make sure our water glasses stayed full. Great food, great service, and a wonderful first experience. We'll definitely be back! read more
