Testimonials

“We always order the calamari, it's the best we've ever tasted! Great service and relaxing ambiance overlooking Shelter Cove marina.” ~ Denise S.

“My two friends and I spent a wonderful evening at Elas. We could not get a reservation but were able to sit at the bar. The food was delicious. We had drinks, lobster nachos, fried green tomatoes as starters. We each tried a different entree and were all happy with our choice. My one friend has dessert and she and I topped it off with espresso martinis. Vinny, the bartender worked tirelessly to keep us happy. The fireworks were that night and he told us the best place for us to watch and it was the end to a perfect night.” ~ P. Carrano
