Elia Cafe Tapas Bar

The live music was my favorite part!

Wow, this place is fantastic! My wife and I celebrated Valentine's Day at Elia Cafe Tapas Bar and we're so glad we did. The food, service and atmosphere were amazing, but their willingness to accommodate my wife's allergies was incredible. Before we arrived, Madison had already briefed our server and the kitchen about my wife's limitations. While the Valentine's Day menu was prix fixe, my wife was able to substitute to accommodate her diet. Based on experience, we've learned that this kind of service is rare on a normal night and exceptional on a busy night like Valentine's Day. Incredibly, the food and atmosphere were just great as the service. All four courses were generous and delicious. The paella mixta, grilled salmon and pastel de chocolate were particularly good. Our server, Chase, kept the perfect pace with just the right amount of time between courses. We highly recommend Elia Cafe Tapas Bar and we'll definitely be back. Dietary restrictions: Elia Cafe Tapas Bar was very accommodating of my wife’s allergies. They went above and beyond!!

Elegimos visitarlo por ser una nueva opción en la ciudad, pero nos decepcionó. El lugar es agradable, y el servicio muy bueno, Fuimos a degustar buena comida, y esto falta allí, demasiado frito y salado. Muy poca variedad, cantidad, y sabor, a un precio alto para lo que sirven. Todas las tapas que pedimos no estaban, o bien terminadas o muy refritas. Además eran porciones excesivamente diminutas para el precio, y tapa no es sinónimo de poco. NO ES comida española, solo el nombre, por eso no continuamos pidiendo, íbamos por paella. Le deseamos mejorar en calidad.

The food, the music, and the atmosphere are awesome. I really enjoyed them with my girlfriend. The waiters are really nice and friendly. I am pretty sure I’ll come here again.

Every aspect of our experience was excellent. One caveat, however, the unsecured rag rug in the vestibule is an accident waiting to happen!

Elia is an hidden gem and one of my new favorite local restaurants. Excellent food, drinks, and service! My friend and I went for wine and split a couple of tapas. Both the shrimp and empanadas were fantastic, and Shelby was so helpful and friendly!
