Nice modern, cozy Greek tendencies restaurant located at Pinecrest Community Center. Greek dishes typically contain various healthy ingredients such as olive oil, nuts, and fish, all linked to better heart health. There is also a playground for kids, so parents can ease forba moment. The library is right next to you in case you like cultural activities. It's worth the visit!

This month we celebrated our son's 5th birthday party at Elia Cafe and I can only say that we had a pleasant and wonderful experience. The owner of the Cafe guaranteed that the birthday party was a success! He was attentive to all the details from start to finish. The service was excellent, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious especially the sliders! I recommend this place for any kid’s or family event. Or to spend a quiet afternoon sipping on a coffee while the kiddos play in the park.

Amazing cafe right next to a park and playground, soccer fields and library. The food came out fast even though they had one worker and it tasted phenomenal. The kale smoothie was really good. Wraps were delicious and they have so many options for breakfast and lunch.

Loved going here all the time with my kiddos after the playground and library. Love the coconut ice cream and am missing it so much after moving to Tampa. I’m currently trying to find the name of it so I can order some for my home. lol

Super delicious place to get lunch. Healthy, light. Dessert was awesome. Had the cheesecake. Completely forgot to take a picture because it looked so good we dug in as soon as it hit the table. This is perfect place to have meetings and parties. They have an outdoor area that really adds value to events. The staff is friendly and helpful with the million questions we had about the menu since it was our first time there. Everything looked like a solid option so it was hard to choose. So excited that there is a hidden gem inside of Pinecrest to grab lunch during the week. Parking was easy. Will be back soon to try the key lime pie.....

Here’s a hidden gem worth checking out! The spicy feta spread comes with warm pita slices and is simply delicious. The Elia Signature Sandwich is equally simple and delicious. Chicken, lettuce, tomato and more spicy feta spread on white bread it’s the spot! They have a pretty extensive menu and everything seems made to order. Prices are reasonable as well. Glad I found this cafe, and I’ll definitely be back!
