First time at Ela's and yes it will be our last. I started with 1/2 dz oysters which were so tiny I could not believe they cost 12.00. My wife had oyster rockerfeller which were under cooked and very mushy. For dinner I had the slightly seared tuna which was over cooked and needed a knife to cut. It was removed from our bill after the manger looked and tasted. He acknowledged it was not properly prepared. My wife had crab cakes which were very bready. Not a restaurant I would recommend

The portions were small and overpriced. The lobster bisque serving was shallower than the soup spoon. The "jumbo " crab cake was fair but only two inches in diameter. The wine by the glass serving was the stingiest we experienced at Hilton Head. The service was lukewarm. We will not return.

6 of us went there for dinner. We all enjoy a great meal and fine service when we go out and we definitely weren't disappointed. Jason was knowledgably about the wine and food options. Nothing we ordered was disappointing. We were lucky because we had both the Valentines day menu and their regular menu to chose from and everything we had was unique and full of flavor. Thanks for making our pre Valentines Day dinner a memorable one.

The waitress recommended the specialty wine, then when we asked for another glass., she said they were out of it...the blackened tuna came out stone cold...we've been there and will not go back again

Green bean casserole was undercooked, turkey was bits and pieces instead of slices of meat, gravy was thin and cool, cranberry sauce and stuffing were tasty, but sweet potatoes slices were hard as a rock. Mash potatoes tasted and looked artificial. Service was okay if distracted. In other words food very disappointed as was the promised view. Made to walk up two flights of stairs to a small room at the top of the building that was very cramped, after telling the reception person that I had COPD and was having difficulty with... read more

Have been to Ela's several times. Food and service were always good. This time, they were short on waitstaff, the kitchen was backed up. We were seated promptly and then no one asked us what we wanted to order for 45 minutes. When the food came, it was cold. Doubt that we will return to this restaurant.

Far to expensive for the quality we received. I don't mind paying for really good food but it was just not there on the three dishes we were served. The restauran t was terribly noisey. Food was mediocre at best,

We had reservations about a couple of weeks ago on a weekend nigt.They had 2 different steak options... One with sides 2 sides and one that was a la carte and a bit more pricey. My husband liked ths setup of the one with the 2 sides since it had horseradish on top and just asked about alternating the mushrooms for asparagus. She said there was an up charge... He said ok. When he received his steak it was the a la carte one with a little something on top... Looked like cheese. We asked the server when she came back where the ... read more
