    Service was good and the salmon was cooked perfectly, however, it would be better served over pasta. I did not love the potatoes with it. The atmosphere is a bit loud. The drinks were good. Valet parking is a plus!

    The dining experience at Ella's was amazing! The food was delicious, the after-dinner drinks were fantastic, and the service was exceptional. It got a little noisy when it filled up, but we were still able to have a conversation during dinner. Definitely worth going!

    Ella’s is the only restaurant in SoBro to screw up a pepperoni pizza. The Hot Honey & Pepperoni sounded delicious. When it arrived at the table, it was a mess… - The crust was great with some char and a nice crunch. I ate that first because it tore away from the pizza when I tried to pick up a slice. - Instead of shredded cheese, Ella’s uses the buffalo mozzarella you would put on a Caprese sandwich. So, it’s wet cheese on top of the sauce with a honey drizzle. The result is a soggy pizza. - The pepperoni didn’t even get crispy or bake through — it was like warm charcuterie slices. It’s an easy fix: Use shredded cheese and put the honey on after it bakes. For $18, there are better pizzas in the neighborhood.
    Ella’s by Christian PetroniResponded on 28 March 2025
    Hi Gary, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. We’re truly sorry to hear that our Hot Honey & Pepperoni pizza didn’t hit the mark for you—especially since this doesn’t reflect the quality we aim to deliver. While we’re glad to hear the crust had some redeeming crunch, we wish we’d had the chance to make things right during your visit. Our team would’ve appreciated the opportunity to address your concerns in real time. We’re always working to create bold, craveable dishes that live up to their promise, and your feedback will be shared with our kitchen team. We hope to have you join us again the next time you are in SoBro, so we may show you a flawless visit and restore your faith in our pizza-making skills. Warmly, The Ella’s by Christian Petroni Team

    I went for breakfast and had the delicious eggs Benedict. It was a sharable portion if you’re not a big eater. Highly recommend this great gem!

    Hello Stacey, Thanks so much for starting your day with us! We’re thrilled you loved our version of Eggs Benedict—we’re glad it hit the spot. We appreciate you pointing out the generous portion, too—it’s perfect for sharing or savoring solo. We hope we’ll see you again soon next time you are in our neighborhood. Cheers, The Ella’s by Christian Petroni Team
