A celebration of LA's diverse food culture, Elena's Estiatorio is a new ingredient-led Mediterranean restaurant and event space in central Burbank. Take a trip to the Mediterranean with us!
Had a really lovely dinner here. My husband and I honeymooned in Greece and are always on the lookout for good Mediterranean food here in LA. Elena's didn't disappoint! Servers were friendly, food was delicious (the garlic lemon dip that comes with the complimentary pita bread was especially yummy), drinks were great. Really liked the interior of the restaurant too. Will definitely come back!

Best 2024 Dine LA Restaurant. Dined at the Glendale Elena’s for many years and decided to try their new upscale sister restaurant. Wife and I both had the $25 Diners LA Lunch #1. Usually you see sections on Dine LA menu and can only choose one item from each section…here you get it all! (See the menu pic). So much food to sample…you will know what to order for you next visit. Interior done well with large seats and tables. They also serve beer and cocktails. Well done!

Did a random search for Mediterranean food and stumbled across Elena’s. So happy that we decided to try something new. The decor and ambiance of Elena’s was very nice. Modern, clean and nice big space. We were greeted with a smile by the host and the wait staff was also very friendly. The food was very delicious…the sharable dip for two was amazing! Each item was delicious in its own way. Portion was very big so we ended up taking the leftover home. We also got the combination plate with filet and lamb. Meat was tender and juicy and that rice was amazing. Looking forward to going back to try their fish.

So the meal was good but what really impressed me was Cece! That girl was by herself working Monday December 23 as the waitress, bartender and hostess. Her boss owes her big time. On top of it she was genuine and just a real person with huge smile on her face all night. True keeper btw trained chef here with years in a kitchen/restaurant.

We decided to try this place since the Hollywood Way closed. The restaurant is Mediterranean cuisine. I have to say it was delicious and a big change from what was there before. There is a back patio for more casual dining and an inside dining area that is elegant with a stage for singing, dance area and big tables. The bar is beautiful and the bartender was great. A famous Armenian singer, Mer Hovo, sang for my GF and I. I had lamb chops and she had kabobs. Food was great! I hope this place picks up as it is new and was a bit empty when we went. There is also a private room for private parties. Thanks Chinar, Mer Hovo, for making our night a good one!

Wow ! This is a hidden gem in Burbank. Enjoyed a Dine LA night and they serve large portions with excellent service. Sampled new items- family style. The garlic sauce and pita to start are fresh and prepare you for the many dishes to come. Street parking and full wine/beer menu. Highly recommend!

I had gotten there right before 6:30 had ordered my appetizers along with my entries shortly after Arriving 10 minutes later, I had added feta cheese Fast-forward 45 minutes later, I was sitting with just the feta cheese for 30 minutes on my table now I’ve been there for about an hour and a half Then was when the salad had arrived, which looked like it was anything but fresh When the shrimp appetizer arrived, it was pretty much flavorless. I had asked the waiter for a side of olive oil. He said he wasn’t sure if they had That he would check He never came back with it meanwhile, it’s all over their menu He seemed a little brain dead And unfortunately, he was the only person working They had majority of the stuff wrong with the order I had gotten a lentil soup had no lentils at all My Entrées Was completely wrong When I mentioned something to the owner about two hours in and still hadn’t had my entrées, he said sometimes things like this happen Which is insane this is the first time in my life that I’ve ever felt like I was being robbed paying the bill. Worst Greek restaurant I’ve ever been to. Oh yeah, and a party of 15 had arrived, which had gotten their food 10 minutes later It just completely didn’t make sense. Whoever considers this to be a good restaurant knows nothing about food not even worth one star review

Went on a Friday night and restaurant was dead. We ordered the casablanca for 2. Mediocre food to be honest. The only thing that was good was the cheese borek. Shish kabob tasted good but it was too salty. I'd be surprised if this place is still around in a year.

Food was amazing! Everything from service to quality and quantity of food was great. The price is fair for the portion you get, the flavor of everything was very well seasoned, only thing was, music was kinda loud and it was slightly cold cause their door was wide open the whole time. Would definitely eat here again

This is hands down the best greek food I've had in the valley, and the price is pretty reasonable on postmates. Cannot recommend enough. And I've only ever ordered delivery, so I can only imagine how good it must be fresh off the grill! I plan to find out soon.

Everything is fantastic and this is their second location. Their first location was in Glendale and this one is in Burbank. You definitely will enjoy their food their bar, their drinks and their service. I’ve been going to Elena‘s at least the first location for many years and this one has been open for the last 45 months and it definitely blew me away and the size is huge but the food and drinks are great I would definitely, have you try to place if you haven’t been to Elena’s but specially ask for their lentil soup, in addition to their assortment of different dishes, as one order to try all their different types of food.
The price for what you get is definitely worth every penny it’s not the cheapest but it’s not very expensive either so give it a try and no I’m not being paid for by anyone .

Really great experience eating here! The drinks were delicious; they have a really extensive food menu as well and everything we ordered was very tasty. Our server was so kind and helpful with making good choices to order. It’s such a pretty and thoughtful atmosphere too! My only nitpick would be that the lighting in the main area could be a little dimmer in the evening. All in all, it’s a lovely spot and we’ll definitely be back!

We had excellent fish and Greek vegetarian dishes at the new branch of Elena's. The menu is similar to the Glendale restaurant of the same name, but the setting is more elegant and this location has a bar and cocktails as well.

This place just opened up and has an amazing outdoor space. The inside was still under construction at the time we visited. The staff was very attentive to our needs and genuinely cared about giving us a good experience. The food was tasty and very fresh. Everyone in my group enjoyed their meal.

Rarely is it open during the day, despite posting that it's open at 11am. Food is decent to average. The bartender is friendly. Always empty during the day. They don't seem to cater to the usual patron who likes to eat lunch and have a beer while waiting to get their car wash or those of us who work in the industry. Overall I would say it's disappointing, but if they are actually open during lunch hours i will still go have a drink and a bite.

This place is terrific. Great atmosphere, service was friendly and well paced. They do not compromise on the quality of their ingredients, I have a fine-tunes pallette and we know the difference when we taste, no? Come.
