I was welcomed to throw my sister her baby shower here and I could not have asked for it to have gone any better! I was offered to reserve an entire dining room area that was quite spacious and was quoted a rather heavy price so I only reserved a smaller section for what I needed. Then as I arrived the manager came in to greet me and ended up staying for over an hour to help me decorate, pick out wine, and set up the whole space. Then to my surprise since they weren’t too busy the manager closed off the whole set of TWO huge dining rooms and we had both huge dining rooms and the whole outside patio area to ourselves for the party which was way bigger than even needed for sure and at no extra cost they just gave it to us out of the fact that they COULD. The whole staff was very friendly and helpful from coming in to give a wonderful presentation and explanation of our whole tables spread to getting every request right on the dot such as placing the cake with its cake accessories precisely how I had quite complicatedly asked of them. On top of all this we ended up staying far past closing time and were welcomed to without any pressure on leaving. Ten out of ten would recommend

I wanted to rate this place 4 stars instead of 5 just because how expensive the lobster roll at market price was, but it was fresh whole lobster probably the best one I’ve had in my life. The garden signature cocktail was good as well, my wife got a pizza and tiramisu which were great, I tipped about 25% and it was around 120$. Expensive yes but justified, yes. Excellent food.

Look at your bill closely. The menu prices, even though they are already high, did not match what I was charged.

We had a really good time here. We sat outdoors and the spacing was great. Outside it’s called “The Garden at Ellera” which is a more casual, beer garden experience according to the website. We ordered the brussels sprouts which were amazing, although pricey. We ordered a couple of pizzas (cheese and Verdina) and a local beer and some wine. For dessert we ordered the tiramisu and the cheesecake. Both were delicious, although the tiramisu was a little watery at the bottom of the bowl. Overall a great place with some really nice food, but it can be on the more expensive end. Just know what you’re getting into when you go. My daughter commented the cheese pizza was her favorite pizza ever.

What brought us here is a picture of a scallop sandwich in search for a sea food. The market price of $36 for 3 scallops, however, turn us toward trying other appetizing menu items:

Our new favorite place! We had the BEST outdoor dining experience that our whole family enjoyed. It is also the perfect date night experience. The food is SO AMAZING, you have to to try their Capricciosa & Trasteverina pizza, Potato Croquettes and P. E. I. Mussels!
