2 months agoWe went twice at this place at noon. At night you must reserve because there is a lot of people. We order several plates. All was very good and the waiters were very nice. Nice environment. You are in this little street and then you are seated at the terrace, at calm with the cicadas. I loved the seafood risotto with saffron

4 months agoIn the center of Kos old town, with a magnificent garden Elia is definitely one of the places that stole our heart. The waiter that served us, a young bearded man, was one of the kindest ever met on the island. The food was excellent at a very affordable price. We wanted to have a second dinner there before leaving but we had to cheang our pland last moment and it's been a huge regret! Definately to try!!! It's going to be worth every your cent!

3 months agoAlongside the obvious (great food and drinks) a meal is made or misses the mark on the ambience and the staff. The staff at Elia were incredible - warm, friendly, engaging and helpful. We had an amazing lunch with all different ages and tastes catered for. We went for a selection of starters for the table and then an array of mains. On the suggestion from the staff I went for the lamb kapamas, which was exquisite. Sweet and tender lamb shank in a die for sauce of cinnamon and honey. Really good value restaurant and would highly recommend.

9 months agoWe are nearing the end of a trip through Turkey and Greece and this was one of the best meals we had! It’s in a small pedestrian area so nice and quiet and away from the cars. We sat in the front but there’s also a nice back dining area. Such friendly service, delicious food (try the lamb with cinnamon and aunt’s chicken!!) and drinks. We also appreciated the complimentary bread with olive paste and liqueur. Can’t recommend this place enough!

9 months agoSo incredibly glad we chose this place for our first meal in Greece. The food was some of the best I’ve had in my life and the service was nothing short of perfect. Location is amongst the narrow laneways of Old Kos Town and offers great people watching and atmosphere. Just smoked mackerel, salad and grilled calamari was heavenly!
