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!

The place looks very pretty and the food is plated beautifully. But food was mediocre at best. The menu seemed limited and the flavor palate didn't wow. Service was attentive

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.

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!

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.

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.

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!

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.

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!

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.

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.

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!

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.
