Outstanding view and the seafood was excellent, especially the seared scallops. Will be back!

This was our first trip to Ela's and won't be our last. Great food and great attentive service. For an appetizer we strongly recommend the Lobster nachos. I had the flounder and my wife had the grouper. Both were prepared perfectly and had some spices and herbs that made the flavors really pop. One of the nicest things about the service is when we ordered the Lobster nachos appetizer we asked the waiter if we should go ahead and order our entrees. He said, "I control the serving and flow of the food, so don't worry about bei... read more

We spent 8 days in Hilton head and Ela's was the restaurant we went back to our final night. They really know how to cook fish! We had oysters both visits, the first visit, they were great, fresh and meaty and a kind we had never had before-sorry we can't remember the kind. The second visit, we had two kinds of oysters. The Blue Points were great, the other kind were tiny and certainly weren't worth the price. The grouper was amazing!!!! Good service both nights with different waiters. The restaurant iis very noisy, especial... read more

We went to Ela's to celebrate our 1st anniversary and could not have picked anywhere more perfect! It was a beautiful night and our table on the deck had a gorgeous view overlooking Shelter Cove. The music and atmosphere was lovely. The food was delicious. We started with the lobster nachos, I had the grouper, and my husband had the crab cakes. We had mentioned it was our anniversary on the Open Table reservation form, only to make sure we would get a good table, but the restaurant surprised us with dessert on the house! Suc... read more

Our visit to ELA’s 5 years ago was so memorable. Our group from that trip has tripled this year and I knew ELAs was one of the first places our newbies have to experience on the island. Call me crazy but I’ve already booked my reservation for 2 months away. If you only have one Sunday on HH, brunch overlooking the marina at ELA’s is definitely not something to miss!! This restaurant ranks very highly on my top picks from ALL of my travels. I’m hoping for an opportunity to come back to try a sunset dinner later in our week as... read more

We had a table for 6 outside on the patio. The owner pointed out exactly where the full moon would be rising and it was BEAUTIFUL! The bartender is the best! Great wine suggestions from him and a nice personality! My grouper was great and the short ribs were awesome!!!

If you are in Hilton Head for a short time make sure Ela's is on your "short list". One of the most relaxing venues on the island with outstanding food.

Ela's is one of the best restaurants on the island and we have always had outstanding food and service. We took out of town guests this time and they were impressed even though it was rainy and the view was not the best. The fresh, local grouper was wonderful and their calamari has spoiled us for eating it anywhere else.
