" I enjoyed a fantastic evening here! The staff was welcoming, the wine selection is impressive, and I particularly loved the octopus appetizer - it was simply the best I've ever had! The ambiance is jazzy and inviting, which makes for a perfect date night spot. The main courses we ordered were great too, although the portions could be slightly larger, especially for the price. Still, the quality of the food makes up for it. I will definitely be coming back soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I always make a point to stop by Elis Wine Bar when I'm in the neighborhood! The cozy atmosphere and authentic vibes make for a great night out. Their happy hour is wonderful, with fantastic small plates, especially the calamari! While I don’t think the full menu is as strong in all areas, I always leave satisfied and happy after a night of good wine and lively conversation. It’s a lovely local spot! I highly recommend. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so much about Elis's wine selection, I opted to give it a try! I really appreciated the knowledgeable staff who helped pair our wine with our food. The charcuterie board was brilliant; however, I found the pasta I ordered a tad salty. The owner was charming and made rounds to ensure everything was satisfactory. I think with a couple of tweaks to their seasoning, this would be a stand-out destination in NYC for Italian cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've had the pleasure of dining at Elis Wine Bar a few times, and each experience is incredible! The authentic Italian dishes are a highlight, especially the pasta which is always fresh and flavorful. The atmosphere is cozy, perfect for romantic dinners or casual nights out with friends. The owner, Elis, is very attentive and always makes it a point to greet guests personally. I highly recommend the dollar oysters during happy hour; they’re definitely the best in the city! Overall, an amazing spot that I can't wait to return to. " (*Curated Review*)

" Finally made it to Elis Wine Bar after hearing rave reviews! The service was attentive from the moment we walked in, and the owner greeted us at the door with such warmth. We ordered a variety of dishes to share, and I must say, everything was delicious! My favorite was the mushroom risotto, which was rich and flavorful. The only aspect that could improve slightly would be the portion sizes. Still, it’s a fantastic spot for a relaxed weekend dinner with friends or family. " (*Curated Review*)

" Elis Wine Bar never disappoints! I’ve been multiple times and love the various offerings each time! The atmosphere definitely helps with the overall experience—it’s bustling yet intimate. The food is consistently good; I usually go for the risotto, but this time I tried the lamb sliders, which were juicy and incredibly tasty! I just wish portions were a little more sizable for sharing with friends. Still, it’s worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a somewhat mixed experience at Elis Wine Bar. The owner was charming, and I loved the wine selection—they really care about the pairings. However, I found the food quality to be uneven. While some dishes were excellent, others fell flat. This might be a hit-or-miss situation depending on what you order. I think with consistency, this can be a top-notch establishment.
