What People Are Saying About Eleni Restaurant

In Short – Rich, earthy colors and candlelit tables warm the high-ceilinged room, while the open kitchen and bar in the middle of the restaurant makes dining here feel like a night out on the town. On weekends, young hipsters and families crowd in to experience Dolmathakia, grape leaves stuffed with rice, shallots, pine nuts, raisins and dill, and garithes saganaki, prawns sauteéd with tomatoes, feta and green peppers. But, the must-try dish seems to be the Saganaki--flambéd kasseri cheese--which blue flames are extinguished tableside with lemon.
Obnoxious owner!!!

This place has a cozy nice abience one of the best in Portland . But the loud crewed and I'd say mentaly unstable j owner screeming at her staff just ruins the whole Dinng experience The food comes out sloppy although the taste is OK I had a bowl of avgolemono soup that had so much lemon in it it puckerd my mouth definitely won't be going back the owner actually made nervous

Read the post on shameless restaurants dot com on eleni's where employees discuss some of the food recycling practices at this restaurant. Look in the portland section and read away.
Lots of info to digest before you dip into that tapenade! Sorry eleni.
Fabulous Food - Flavorless Service
by melissamcclure
We were thrilled and grateful to get into Eleni's without a reservation on a recent Saturday night. The food was truly wonderful - marvelous! However, we were disappointed by the curt and bristly waiter who informed us, with no apologies, that they there were several changes on the menu to note, given that the oven was not working on that particular evening. Oh yes, and they were out of bread as well - so the appetizer would have to be served on ...? He certainly had the "like it or not" attitude about most things, but in spite of him WE DID LIKE IT - very much.
