I’ve had a lot of delicious Mediterranean food in Atlanta. Ela is absolutely legit. The food was outstanding and the service was great! The Mezze board was out of this world. The hummus and whipped feta were the highlight! The skewers were outstanding! We had the shrimp, chicken, pork, and beef. All were perfect! Ela goes on the regular rotation for sure!

Delicious skewers! Meat was very well prepared and seasoned and portions good enough to be your main meal. Great variety within skewers as well, chicken and mushroom were my personal favorite. Drinks were delicious but not strong. Service is attentive and kind, highly recommend, great dinner spot in the Virginia Highland area.

My friend and I went for a simple girls night out and let me just say Amazing experience. For a girl experience where you just want to munch on variety but also get some strong drinks strongly recommend. We made reservations but we were seated promptly and were consistently check on by our waiter who was a 10/10. He gave us good suggestions as well as attended to us and also let us enjoy our time. Wide variety of veggie and meat options for different dietary needs. I will definitely will be back. There is parking in the back of restaurant can get a bit stuffy back there but other than that a good time and it was pretty good walking location for other bars in Virginia highlands areas

We went here for brunch and the food was good and unique! The fries were only ok even though they looked really delicious. The hot chicken was the best thing! We sat on the patio, which was very cute, but even though they have some fans…it was still very hot! The server was very attentive

We have been here twice so far & our experience has been great. My recommendation would be to eat moroccan chicken appetizer & beet muhammara, greek fries. Also for skewers try date tamarind pork. Shrimp & chicken was very average. Barely marinated or salted. Pork was delicious & juicy. Parking is outside in a lot. Staff is friendly & decor is amazing.
