    Superb Greek restaurant. We went there for my birthday in a group of eight. The service was excellent. The food was even better. They had multiple options and alteration for both the gluten free and vegan diners in my party. The desserts are scrumptious. I can’t recommend Cava enough!

    First time to this restaurant and I've been hearing a lot about it and I see why, Sara and Mike were great! I was on a first date and they made our date night even better. Service was professional and friendly all the way from the host stand to the table and the food was outstanding. This company knows what they're doing, will be back for sure

    Great time and good food as usual. Disappointing in that it was my 37th anniversary and I had mentioned it in my reservation. Nothing from the restaurant. Maybe I expected too much.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience at Ela Mesa. The authentic Greek food was delicious and paired beautifully with their Greek wine. The restaurant and restrooms were spotless. Our server Wellington was professional and attentive. Prices were a little on the high side but expected for the area. Although we were just passing through the area, we look forward to a return visit in the future.
