This is rapidly becoming one of our favorite "go-to" places on the island. We have never had a poor meal here in several visits, and this last visit was no exception. The short ribs were "melt in your mouth" good, and the grouper was just outstanding. Service was friendly, efficient, and unrushed. You won't be disappointed!

The presentation of the crab cakes I ordered was superior and they were excellent -- made in a somewhat different style than most other places and delicious. The shrimp cocktail appetizer my wife ordered was filled with big, succulent shrimp and she enjoyed it. A side of two small potatoes (for $7) was a pricey add-on and they were not good. My wife barely nibbled them. The prices for beer were about double one would find in a lower tier restaurant for the same brand, but that's not unusual on HHI. The other couple at the ta... read more

Awesome!! An hour drive was worth it. Ela's elegant announcement is short of the quality of the treatment they provide. Top notch!! Very impressed with all that was offered during restaurant week!! We'll definitely return!!

This was my third visit to Ella's over the past 1 1/2 years. We had a rough start from a Service perspective because no server appeared to be assigned to our table, and then a cocktail arrived in a glass with lipstick stains (yuck). However, when we saw the special menu, with wine samplings, we settled in for a wonderful dining experience. The Prixe Fix menu with wine pairings was only $55 per person and the choices were exceptional. Will continue to return to Ella's on our Hilton Head trips!

My wife and I selected Ela's from the Restaurant Week (RW) selections because the menu options looked to be a perfect fit for us. The location, at the marina on the second floor, yielded some nice scenery and we picked our dinner time reservations to coincide with the sunset on a beautiful Friday evening. We were promptly seated, and at a table by the window (nice view!). Our server was professional and polite, but not overly talkative (no description of the menu items, for example). Other staff members, too, were polite inc... read more

Ela's was a great spot. It was a romantic dinner for 2 but I would go again with friends. I had the pan seared grouper, my boyfriend ordered the scallops. Both meals were amazing as were the oysters. They also had a singer/ guitarist for entertainment this past Thursday. He was really good. We sat in the bar after dinner and listened to him for over an hour

This is my husband's favorite restaurant, so I take him here for his Birthday each year (and on other special occasions). This year we again came for the wine-pairing dinner and brought friends along. Our hostess, Katarina, made sure we were comfortably seated and was knowledgeable about the dinner offerings and the wines. The food and corresponding wine selections were excellent. Wines I typically would not select, such as Reisling, paired so well with the soup/salad course and really complemented the lobster bisque and pea... read more

The table by the window was wonderful with the view of the boats. However the service was very poor. Because I had been to Ela's before and know the excellent service and food I would have been disappointed.
