What People Are Saying About Elenis Philoxenia

In Short – Sleek and theatrical, neighborhood locals sit amid dim, dramatic lights against dark wood high-backed booths or belly up to the bar. The appetizer menu features a filo dough pillow filled with feta cheese and drizzled with honey as well as pan-fried or grilled calamari. For the main course, tiger prawns come in one of two seasoned tomato sauces over zita or orzo pasta. There's also ground beef simmered with seasonings over spaghettini.
Tough Times
by DVF
I love Elenis. The food is fresh and authentic. I am a loyal customer and found through my observation that due to these tough economic times that the restaurant seems to be possibly experiencing some difficulties in finding a loyal staff that wants more than these times can provide. I just know this place has soo much potential and a good intention. Their are so many good restaurants in Pdx and this is one of them but also alot of competition. Try it out with an open heart and you will not be dissapointed.
- Pros: Great food and intention
- Cons: Tough times
