Angelo hand-selects the freshest, seasonal ingredients and artfully prepares them in an inviting setting of warmth and sophistication. A carefully curated list of wines has been masterfully chosen to create an extensive wine list from every region around the world. Whether it’s for an elegant night out or a gathering with family & friends, Chef Angelo Elia looks forward to inviting guests for an authentic Italian Tuscan-style meal in a setting that feels like home.

Yummy!! The chicken fajitas were amazing!! Definitely recommend fajitas. We also had red snapper and beef fajita enchiladas, all delish. Margaritas excellent. Service two thumbs up. We went to dinner at 6:15, so it wasn’t too loud, got a little busier around 7. Views of the mountains were an added bonus. We will be back!

We enjoyed a delightful dinner at Elina. The food was terrific and the pasta special was a real treat. It was a fairly quiet evening and nice to converse easily. It's a charming venue, but the wine list is very expensive with not many reasonably priced options.
