" This is a lovely restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere! I had grilled haloumi as an appetizer, which was delicious. For my main course, I opted for the chicken kebab, which was juicy and flavorful. The only downside was the wait time; it was longer than expected, but the friendly staff remained apologetic and attentive. Overall, a great dining spot that I will visit again to try their other dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" New favorite spot! Ela Mesa has a fantastic vibe – very cozy yet upscale. We ordered a variety of dishes, and every single one was delightful! The included pita with olive oil dip was a perfect start, and I highly recommend the fried octopus. Everything tasted so fresh, and I loved that many ingredients are imported from Greece. The only issue was that the staff seemed a bit overwhelmed on a busy night but still tried to provide attentive service. I'm looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was our first visit and it won’t be the last! The food was authentic, from the pita to the main course dishes. I had the grilled chicken, and it was both juicy and flavorful. The staff members were all very friendly, and the decor was beautiful and inviting. They also serve some unique Greek wines that complemented our meal well. A great dining experience overall!

" I recently visited Ela Mesa Taste of Greece, and I was completely blown away by the authenticity of the food! The grilled octopus was perfectly cooked and tasted just like the ones I had in Greece. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel at home. The atmosphere was cozy, perfect for a dinner with friends. I cannot recommend this place enough! 10/10 would come back again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ela Mesa has quickly become my favorite Greek restaurant! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warm hospitality. The moussaka was rich and flavorful, while the lamb shank literally melted in my mouth! The only downside was that the portions could be a bit larger given the price point, but the quality of the food makes up for it. The cozy ambiance added to our great dining experience. I will definitely be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ela Mesa Taste of Greece is fantastic! Their take on traditional dishes is both authentic and exciting. The roasted goat was a special, and I couldn’t get enough – it was cooked perfectly and bursting with flavor! The server was friendly and attentive, ensuring we had a great experience. The decor was an elegant touch, bringing a slice of Greece right here to Maryland. I'd only suggest that they could offer more variety in desserts, but the meal overall was delightful. Will definitely be returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a fantastic experience here with a lovely mix of flavors in my dishes. The grilled octopus was exceptionally well done. The only critique I would have is that I found the portion to be slightly smaller than expected for the price. The staff was friendly and helpful, but they were a bit scattered during our busy dinner rush. Overall, I can see why this restaurant has such high ratings. I will likely be returning soon!
