Thoughtless and disregarding attitude. Enough said about the service side of this establishment. Entree was served at the same time as a luke warm first course. The timing and temperature problems were especially unforntunate given that the food was actually very tasty. It gets worse sorry to say. We were forced to leave half way though our bottle of wine when the cleaning crew went into full motion including the flipping on of a vaccum. Go back..... never. Recommend ..... never.

Great baklava, poor service, a very off night maybe?. My husband and I went to Eleni's in Sellwood on Friday night at 7:50 p.m. We were promptly seated and there was no line. We ordered two appetizers - the grilled calamari and the saganaki, both appetizers which we've ordered many times before. More than 30 minutes passed - at which point our server mentioned that our appetizers should come soon and someone brought us bread. Because of the delays we decided not to order dinner but to cook at home and we ordered baklava to go (Eleni's baklava is one of our favorite.) By 8:30 p.m. our order still had still not arrived and our server said there had been a problem with the saganaki not cooking properly. (By this time the table beside us had finished their appetizers and received and finished their main meal!). The server said the bakalava we'd ordered to go would be on the house. Our saganaki arrived seconds afterward - was still not cooked properly and we sent it back. The calamarai arrived a couple do minutes after that and was delicious. When our bill arrived we paid for the calamari and the baklava (which was on the bill - even though we 'd been told it was on the house.) At that point we didn't feel like haggling over what was promised, so we paid and left. We really like good restaurants to stay in our neighborhood but were so disappointed with our experience I don't think we'll be back anytime soon.

oh my god!!. First, the service was outstanding, they had answers to all our questions, explained what everything was etc. Second, so many thing to choose from. Third, the food was to die for! It just got better with every course, and we tried a total of 3 apps 3 main dishes and 2 desserts.

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
