We very disappointed with our dinner last night. The service was mediocre at best. My appetizer was OK. My wife had the caprese salad and it lacked mozzarella. When the entrée came my yellow fin tuna was cold. My wife's steak was cooked OK (med rare) but that was cold as were the vegetables. Beautiful restaurant but an unfortunate meal. Prices on the high side but the portions lacking.

We were visiting from Ohio and chose Ela's Blu Water Grille based on reviews on TripAdvisor. Perfect choice! Despite the weather (torrential downpour) the view of the small harbor was pretty cool. We were seated right on time. Great location within the restaurant a few tables away from the musician. For our meal we chose scallops and their filet. Both were prepared perfectly. Service was excellent. Overall, a great night!

Our first visit to Ela's, booked based upon good reviews on Open Table. The location is lovely, right on the yacht harbor at Shelter Cove. Outdoor dining area is nice and indoors the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. Our request for a change of our assigned table was very nicely met and we had a lovely table at the window. Our server was efficient if not polished; we never received the bread basket other tables enjoyed. Serving of our food was very rushed -- we had just taken the last bite of our starters when the entrée arr... read more

Waterview was really just all the boats in the harbor. Couldn't see much from the table we had just 10 feet from the railing. They claim nightly sunsets but the outside dining area was not facing the right direction for that. Food was very good and great service.

Grouper and Snapper dishes were very good. Memorable key lime pie.

Three days after our dinner, the group is still talking about how good the meal was at Ela's. Service was prompt, but not rushed, view of the harbor was very nice, and the staff was very friendly. It was nice to stroll around the harbor after dinner.

The tuna tartare and carpaccio were outstanding. The seared tuna was dry but the scallops were very good. Always love the scenery, quiet and pleasant atmosphere. Casually elegant

We went here for a special date occasion, overall a good restaurant, but not great: - food was very very expensive. we live in Charleston and used to same pricing, but much better food - service was lacking, it took several times for the waiter to come back and take our orders, tell us about specials - overall, the views were great and the food was good, but not worth the 185$ tab
