" Eleni's has been one of my favorites since moving to the city. The ambiance is always welcoming, and the food is generous and flavorful. The seafood orzo is a must-try; it's always cooked perfectly. I also enjoyed the traditional Greek desserts they have, which add a sweet ending to any meal. Looking forward to my next visit for another satisfying experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere at Eleni’s is fantastic! It truly feels like a piece of Greece right in NYC. Unfortunately, my expectations fell a bit short with the food. Though some dishes were memorable, such as the lamb chops, others did not impress me as much. I would still recommend it for the ambiance and the service, which was top-notch. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was mixed. The food had a few hits like the seafood orzo, but the grilled salmon was dry. Service was friendly but a bit inattentive during peak hours. Ambience is lovely, capturing the Greek essence, but the culinary execution needs some improvement. Overall, I might give it another chance. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely lunch at Eleni’s last week. The fixed menu was a steal—quality dishes at a fantastic price. The highlight was definitely the spinach pie and prawns linguine. I can appreciate that they prioritize authentic flavors, true to their heritage. The ambiance, with the lovely lemon trees is such a nice touch and makes for a perfect lunch date. " (*Curated Review*)

" So happy I stumbled upon Eleni's! The place just feels inviting, and the authentic dishes reflect true Greek culture. The veal chop was described to me by the staff as their specialty, and it definitely lived up to the hype! Finished with a delightful baklava, and I left feeling completely satisfied! I highly recommend this place to anyone in the city! Perfect for date night or gathering! " (*Curated Review*)

" Eleni's should definitely be on your list if you're exploring Greek cuisine in NYC! The ambiance is lovely and warm. I tried the lobster pasta, which was flavorful and filled with fresh seafood. I even took some home; their portions are generous! Service could have been a little faster, but overall it was a delightful experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food with a vibrant atmosphere! The seafood pasta was a highlight of my meal—truly authentic and hearty. Plus, the drinks were strong and refreshing. While the service lagged slightly during peak hours, the staff remained courteous. A major plus was the beautiful decor that echoed the Greek islands. Can't wait to visit again! " (*Curated Review*)
