Delicious food, great service (the hostess was especially kind and accommodating). The food was delicious and they even gave us more bread for the fondue dip (which was the highlight of the meal) A cute restaurant right by The Paramount. Our table was a sofa table with pillows and all, very cozy! I would highly recommend this spot to anyone in the area! read more

If my review can save others from making the mistake it's worth it. What an awful experience. We sat down at 5:45pm before a 7pm show. The only other people in the restaurant were 2 people at the high top by the bar. The first two drinks we ordered took almost 20min to arrive. Our group of 6 (once all arrived) then ordered more drinks which took also a very long time. The food was awful. Chicken breast so thick and dry, and not to mention the plates they use you couldn't actually cut it on because it was a bowl. The pasta over cooked and falling apart. The rice balls had consistency of a mashed potato. The cacio de Pepe was more like buttered noodles. Not to mention the portion size for the prices they charge. The poached pear salad was outstanding. Our last drink was ordered as some food arrived and didn't show up until the check was being paid. If you have a small menu like them, you should be able to execute it well. read more

Six of us went for dinner before going to an 8pm show at the Paramount. Had drinks at the bar beforehand and the bartender was so slow she couldn't get all our drinks made in 15 minutes before we sat down. We were seated at 6:30 (reservation time) we had to ask for more water, waitress did not check on us very often and the food came out at 7:45. I ordered the poached pear salad with chicken and the chicken cutlet was so dry I could hardly cut it with a knife. This was not a great venue overall. Next time we will go someplace else. read more

Ella's is a great spot! Its location couldn't be more convenient -- right next to The Paramount and close to town parking. When we walked inside, we were pleasantly surprised to find a dining area you wouldn't notice from the outside. That's where my husband and I were seated. It was a very busy Friday night, so the staff was definitely juggling a lot, but they still managed to be attentive and friendly. The space isn't huge, which actually made it feel cozy and helped the service stay smooth even with the crowd. We ordered the Big Cheese pizza and loved it. The prosciutto was such a nice touch, and it seemed to be a popular order -- we noticed a few other tables enjoying the same pizza along with calamari and meatballs to share. Clearly, their comfort classics are a hit. The bar area is small but full of energy and had a really nice vibe. Overall, Ella's is a cute, cozy pizzeria with great food and a convenient location. We'd definitely come back! read more

Stopped in for happy hour deals, 10-12 dollar pizza and 10 cocktails plus bites for 12 dollars. Overall a good deal. Cocktails were super original and delicious. The French fries on the side of the sliders were EXCEPTIONAL. Pizza was good, I wish it was crispier and I felt like the white pizza would have been better without the balsamic or needed truffle instead but overall great ambience and staff and good food. read more

Manny is an amazing bartender. Bianca is a great addition. Great drinks. Great little bar.

I booked a reservation through OpenTable for 5:30 PM on November 30th, as I have done for the past three years during the Huntington town parade. My friend and I were seated, dining, and consuming drinks normally while our husbands and children marched. It was our expectation that they would join us at the table once the parade concluded, as they have in prior years. Without any prior notice or warning, we were abruptly presented with the bill. When we asked for clarification, we were told we had exceeded a "time limit." At no point--during the reservation process, at check-in, or while dining--were we ever informed of such a policy. No signage indicated a time-restricted seating policy, and no other tables were asked to leave despite having been seated for comparable or longer periods. When we asked to speak with a manager, the first manager approached us in a hostile and confrontational manner. He raised his voice, came uncomfortably close to our faces, and stated that we needed to leave immediately. He threatened to have us physically removed from the restaurant. His behavior was unprofessional, intimidating, and entirely unwarranted. Oddly, The selective enforcement of this supposed policy made us feel targeted and treated differently. No other tables were given the same treatment. We knew the other tables in the room from the community. A second manager (Rachel) later approached and reiterated the demand that we leave. She partially comped the bill after learning that my friend is a Paramount Founders Room Club member. While appreciated, this did not mitigate the inappropriate treatment or the discriminatory nature of how the situation was handled. There were no guests waiting for our table at the time. No one from LiveNation cares about this community. It's so different under this ownership. read more

What looks like a small space when you walk in, has so much space! It's a little dark and loud in here, but it's Huntington, so you've got to expect their restaurants mimic the awesome night life. Upon being seated we were asked for our drink orders. I instinctively ordered a cosmopolitan. It was delicious!! We ordered Nonna's meatballs and the zucchini zeppole. The meatballs were out of this world and tasted just like my dad's homemade. The recipe has got to be a family secret. The zucchini zeppole were mid at best. Not heavy on flavor and all around not worth it. The main event was the pizza. We got the dark side of the moon pizza. It was absolutely insane. The smoked duck paired so well with the caramelized onions. Not your average slice and it was impressive. This place is awesome and close to the paramount. I would totally come here again for dinner or before seeing a show! read more

They recently changed the menu and it's just not very good anymore. We started with the riceballs and they were very bland. The Margaritaville pizza was tasty but the chicken parmigiana was terrible. The chicken was very thick, tough and all the breading fell off. The included pasta was over cooked and falling apart in the watery sauce. The service was also lacking. The waitress said our rice balls would come out first, followed by our pizza and finally the chicken parmigiana but everything came out of order. The staff repeatedly came over to try to take our plates while we were eating but never once offered a refill. We were disappointed and won't be coming back. read more

This is based off one experience... We made a reservation on open table and when we got there they said they didn't have a tables available. They were having a party in the back. We ended up sitting in the bar area which worked out fine. Sitting our child in a high chair that didn't reach the table was fabulous haha. There were a couple other hiccups with our waiter (appetizer not coming out, thought a salad came with my meal but it didn't, didn't provide us with the brunch menu...maybe a few other things lol). But once again, there was a party going on and apparently they had new software??? But generally the service was good...the bartender was great -gave us a cup filled with oranges for our toddler, they worked as a team to keep our drinks filled and the food came out fast. The food was really tasty. The brunch pizza was good, my steak was very flavorful (at first I was mad because I thought it wasn't cooked medium as I asked but it was just an end piece I picked up first), the salsa verde was really good with a hint of spice, the eggs were fluffy, the meatballs were also very good (also a little spicy but even my toddler liked them). The mimosas and aperol spritz with brunch were good also. Didn't try any cocktails but they looked good as well. I would Ella's again! read more

Ella’s - Us before ellas - Pizza Near Me - Huntington, New York

Restaurant right on main drag near The Paramount on NY Ave. Interesting and creative menu. Many vegetarian options. Food was delicious, however my only complaint is that the portions are small for the price. I hadn't realized that it was tapas. Or as they say, "more money for smaller portions". That said, each of our dishes were excellent! Also annoying is having to pay for bread, which we did. Nothing extraordinary , essentially 2 slices of toasted bread for $5. Service was very good. Parking is on the street or in municipal lot a block away.one room is a bar with high top tables. Adjacent room has regular tables and nice environment . read more

Possibly unpopular opinion (given all the 4 and 5 star reviews), but there is a real discrepancy/inconsistency with menu item prices at Ella's, hence the three stars. I'll start with the good/great - pizzas were spot on as was the chicken parm (which comes out plated and sliced like a pizza, except the chicken is the crust!). There are a lot of options to choose from and the combinations were an artisanal cut above your standard pizza joint. I'd have liked to see a buffalo or BBQ chicken personally but am not going to ding them for that as there were at least 10 varieties. There's an awesome woodsy smell that'll whisk you right into that ski lodge vibe, serving also as a reminder that all the pizzas (and some other menu options) are tastefully wood-fired. Bonus points for a creative selection of cocktails and a visual "rubric" so you get quick notes on each drink (e.g. main liquor, boozy, sweet, etc). Location can't be beat either, especially if you're catching a show at the Paramount, which is literally next door! My main critique is that portion to price ratio is way out of whack for some items. Particularly, the pinwheel lasagna (6 measly bites for $30) and the wings (6 segments - not full wings - for $17). Our waitress was friendly and knowledgeable in suggesting things for us to try, but after it all, your best bang for the buck is definitely with their awesome pizzas - stick to those. read more

Food and ambiance were top notch, and service was excellent! Had a reservation for 6:30 and were seated right away. A waiter came to see us quickly and took our drink orders. Got our drinks quickly and ordered our food. Everything was timely and it made the experience pleasant. We had the baby kale caesar with steak which was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Got the Seventy times 7 pizza which was so so good. Crust was perfect, sauce was perfect, burrata was amazing. Can't wait to come back and try more. read more

Ella’s - Seventy Times 7 Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Huntington, New York

I went to Ella's last week, and the menu had been cut to one small page. This is because they are changing their whole menu. I assume this is because of the change in ownership for the whole Paramount complex, which was bought by LiveNation. I'm going to withhold final judgement until I experience the new menu. My wife and I are regular patrons of Ella's, because they used to serve the best gluten-free pizza in Long Island. But last week, although they still had GF pizza crust, they had removed their dairy free and vegetarian pizza options. We just left. Customers who have allergies will understand my disappointment. To be continued! read more

I just ordered in the pasta carbonara and it had to be the worst pasta dish I have EVER had. $19.95 for the food in the video attached. It's disgraceful. I would be embarrassed as a restaurant to send this to a customer. Not even 1/2 a bowl of pasta sent by grub hub delivery total with fees $35.00. I have their pizzas all the time and they are delicious and I have no problem with them at all. But this is embarrassing and so disappointing This must've cost $5 to make. Watery and tasteless read more

I really had high hopes for this place, but I left severely disappointed. I am a big foodie and I rarely ever leave a spot 100% disappointed but boy oh boy... When I saw the cocktail and dinner menu before coming, I was excited.... nashville hot bao buns? pizzas? Nduja spread?!?! These are things that are very very hard to mess up and just delicious on their own... and given that it's an Italian taverna with 4 stars on yelp, I thought "this might be my new favorite spot". Boy was I wrong. Before I go into depth about all the dishes, I found all of them lacking in flavor and salt. Even the Nduja... which is unheard of cause Nduja offers so much flavor alone. Nduja, Bread, + Butter ---- Nduja is spreadable soft spicy sausage but this was hard. Rock solid. So every single time you ate some, you were eating cold hard fat and meat. I was shook. Fried Wild Mushrooms ---- I was super excited for this, and I've made fried oyster mushrooms as a chicken substitute (and if I can make it as a mediocre questionable chef, I assumed a restaurant would make it 10/10). Not the case. The mushrooms were not cut so we basically got a oyster mushroom florette that was deep fried and hard to cut and eat. Typically when making oyster mushrooms, you cut individual bunches/pieces and then dip and fry but this was such a lazy approach which made for a horrible meal and experience. All the breading fell off as soon as we tried to cut it because it was in one big chunk. Flavor on this was actually here but the dish was served so terribly that you couldn't even enjoy the essence of it. Nashville Hot Chicken Bao's ---- no flavor at all, not the chicken not the mayo which was very upsetting. It tasted like the bao it came in. I was so turned off by the apps so I went with the safest option on the menu for my main. Pizza. I get pizza from anywhere, but hardly at a restaurant, even though that's probably where it's served best. I opted for the Soppressata, Honey, Chili Oil, Basil... and these are good ingredients on a pizza for someone like me. The crust though... it tasted like cardboard. The texture and taste was so off that I couldn't finish anything past a slice. My other friend got a pizza, my sister got a pasta and brother in law got the cod special. None of them hated their meal as much as I did, but they didn't like or love it either. The cost for this was way too much given that it was probably the worst meal I've ever had at a restaurant. The only good thing about this place was our server, who was charismatic, patient and fun. Sorry to say but I won't be back. read more

Really enjoyed this place! The food was slightly pricy, but in my opinion fairly priced for what you get. The menu was on the small side, which I enjoyed. I believe it was a new seasonal menu. The food was delicious and the servings were perfectly sized. The inside is upscale and comfortable. Only qualm was the service was a bit slow to receive our food despite the restaurant being rather empty. Staff are polite and attentive. Would definitely come back! read more

Went to Ella's with a couple of girlfriends. I've heard so much about this place so I was so excited to try it out! I think they recently changed their menu... it used to be family style and now it's regular plates. The drinks were very good... refreshing and I enjoyed the way they were listed on the menu. They explained the type of alcohol in the drink as well as the other ingredients. The food for me, was just mediocre for the price. The appetizers were definitely the best part. I got cacio e Pepe for my meal and it was with black pasta, not squid ink, just black pasta. I thought that was a bit strange. It was served with an egg on top so it made it creamy but it really was very bland other than that. My other friends got steak and another pasta, again, just OK. I most likely won't be back for the price point of these options. Our waitress was super nice though and very attentive. They also don't have any happy hour at their bar. read more

Not a fan ... stopped in late Saturday night, 10:30 pm and got the feeling when we were ordering that they were closing soon, which they said they were not, but it was a bit odd. Terrible music... just bad 90's music, made us want to leave. Had one of the pizza's, something like 23 dollars, too much. Our fault, should have had a slice across the street at one of the dive pizza places... this pie was a simple pepperoni with hot honey and with tip came to 5 bucks a bitty slice. Perhaps the younger folks enjoy it here, not for us. read more

This place is super cute & trendy with a chill vibe. Our server was great, checking in on us every so often even though it was busy. We ordered brussel sprouts & beets salad to share as an app. They were ok- not bad. For dinner I ordered the pizza with spinach & pesto. It was ok- nothing special. I've had better. My friend ordered the fig pizza- also ok. Nothing impressive that would leave you wanting more. Typically I'd wrap up the leftovers to take home, but I left it. If they improve the menu, I'd come back. Otherwise, it's a pass for me. read more

The first time I ate here in 2023, I really enjoyed it and remember specifically the pizza being surprisingly good for the modern-age Italian spot it was. Less than two years later, I had a completely different experience; it took a realllly long time to get drinks, waiter didn't write down any of our order and then 2 items came out wrong, and the pizza was so thin and overcooked with barely any cheese or sauce. But worst part was the NY Strip that I ordered which was so fatty and tough all the way through that I had to send it back. Instead of comping it or offering something else, they gave me another full NY Strip entree to go. It was the same :( read more

Excellent food (great flavors) and nice service! My husband and I went in for a little date night dinner and are really glad we decided to finally check out Ella's. Service: Very friendly and attentive staff. My husband and I were wearing masks as we entered the restaurant. We were guided to a nice table that was a good distance from other guests. We really appreciate them seating us in the least crowded area without us having to say anything! Food: All delicious! I highly recommend trying the nduja, bread, and butter appetizer. The nduja has a nice kick to it but is not overly spicy, nor does the spiciness linger. They brought out A LOT of nduja and butter relative to the bread, so we ended up taking the remainder to go. The fresh pasta was good and the tomato sauce for the parpardelle had a really rich flavor. read more

A punch in the gut. Went there last night and was one of two tables. I ordered bread which is $5.90 (remember when they would give it to you...I digress). It came with olive oil. My kid wanted butter. No problem right? Well they charged me $7.90 for butter. When I asked about the "open food" charged they confirmed that was the price for butter. So bread and butter at this place cost me $13.80. Are you kidding me? Only redeeming quality about this place is its proximity to the Paramount but likely won't return after getting taken advantage of and you should heed my warning as well. Waitress had the opportunity to take it off bill and didn't. Too many options in this town and I don't need to get fleeced. Next!! read more

I was very excited to order Ellas as our dinner choice for this years New Years Eve meal, and it was all very special. We went wild, ordered basically the whole menu, including: - Zucchini Bread- Delicious, Very Special - Beets by Koji- Alright, One Time Order -Fried Mushrooms- Very Good, Little Too Salty - Croquettes- Good, Tasty - Agnotelli - Very Good, Very Special - Skirt Steak- Savory, Special, Top Choice -Harvest Pizza- Tasty, Happy to Have Again - Nice and Smooth Pizza- Delicious The order was also taken seamlessly online through their website, they open up ordering availability at 4:30, they open at 5. Drive up service was top class, they have an area to easily pull up, they had a guy outside ready to run in and get your order, another guy who will direct traffic in a suit/mask. It was all very smoothly handled. We will definitely be returning for another high class dining experience in the future! read more

I've eaten their pies at the restaurant. I've eaten their pies in the founders room. Both times, The pizza looked good, fire cooked rustic and authentic. But these pies have very little soul put into them in regards to flavor. The regular no topping pie is no better than a microwave pizza flavor wise. I cannot imagine a pepperoni sausage pie I would have any problems with, however tonight, upon biting into a slice from Ella's with these toppings, it was a salt lick. I couldn't eat more than a bite even with a few beers behind me. read more

Firstly, the best thing about our meal/experience was our server. Didn't catch his name but he was just so helpful and nice and extremely patient. The interior of the restaurant was nice, for those that know the area-this restaurant is located where Swallow used to be when it was in Huntington. The food though-did not live upto my expectations. The Nashville hot baos were decent at best. The fried mushrooms were difficult to eat because it was like one massive cluster of mushrooms (that had not been separated) that was fried and served. It was kinda of hard to cut, and when you did try to cut it, the moisture of the mushroom made the entire dish soggy. The bread appetizer just seemed like sliced white bread (white bread may actually have been better), and then we asked for the nduja spread and it kind of threw me off. We got a bowl with a big chunk of very cold/hard/unspreadable nduja. Personally, I would've probably cooked it down and then served it so that it would be the right consistency for a dip/spread. If the bread at a restaurant is not good, it's setting our meal up for failure!!! My cacio e pepe was okay, but my husband got the cod special with sausage which he really enjoyed. The pizzas our friends ordered were fine, but our friends found something off about the texture of the crust. I had high hopes for this place but they were just that, hopes. I left unsatisfied unfortunately. I also do agree with some other reviews that state that it was very pricy meal. read more

The only reason this place deserved a star was because the server was amazing. The food and drinks on the other hand....not good. We heard so many good things about this place but I was so so disappointed. The meat and cheese board barely had meat on it, the rice balls were cold and tasted like mashed potato on the inside and the pizza was barely cooked when it came out. The martinis tasted like water. The place is cute on the inside but food is not worth the money! read more

I've been wanting to try this place for some time now and finally got the pleasure. It's bigger than it looks from the outside and there's a parklet with tables outside. We opted for indoor. The drinks are very good, I had an adios amigos and really enjoyed it. We shared 2 menu items the sweet corn agnolotti and a catch a fire pizza, both really good. I LOVED the agnolotti, buttery sauce, sweet deliciousness. I very rarely get the same menu item twice I like to try new things, but this I could eat everyday. The pizza was good too, spicy mixed with the spicy sweet hot honey, it was good! I can't wait to go back. read more

I was somewhat hesitant to dine at Ellas as a vegan. I stopped by the day before I had planned to dine and asked about the menu and what I could order. Basically a lot of things can be made vegan, but there is only one true vegan option in the menu as is. The anthem of the sun pizza was the only vegan option, but it was very good. I did not miss the cheese at all. It had a lot of well seasoned vegetables on it and was definitely filling. Their pizza dough/crust is really good here. My friends had the nice and smooth pizza and the wings which were both very good too, the wings come with a little bottle of hot sauce which I used on my pizza to take it up a notch. They had a special frozen drink that night, which was really nice on a hot day, but a tad on the sweet side. Our server was very nice and perfectly attentive. We were there for a couple hours catching up and she never made us feel like we were a bother. Overall the experience was good. I really wish they had more vegan options as is, rather than having to ask for things to be taken away or altered. Since they have the one vegan pizza option, one vegan appetizer option would've been really nice so that I could have easily shared an app with my friends. read more
