ELA MESA CAFE RESTAURANT

One of the best Greek food I’ve ever tasted. Fresh seafood and well balanced flavours. Nice courtyard seating views of the water. Staff is friendly and welcoming.

The food here is authentic. The atmosphere is great too. Highly recommended.

Thank you Ela Mesa for the fantastic night we all had for my Mums birthday booking on the 3rd of June! The food was amazing and plentiful (reminded me of going to Nona’s house :) ) the staff attentive and friendly and we just loved the bouzouki & guitar players who played some of our favourite music we heard growing up. We look forward to visiting again 💙🤍💙🤍

2023 update: we've been going to Ella Mesa regularly and can say that the quality is excellent. Updating my original rating from 4 to 5 stars.

Original 2017 review.
Nice restaurant with authentic Greek food on offer. Busy (popular) so try to book ahead so you get a seat if you are going on a weekend. The prices range in the mid to high 20s for a main with entrees in the mid teens to low 20s. Portion sizes are good and the food is tasty.

What a gem , tucked away in Woy Woy..we enjoyed everything about this wonderful restaurant...the food was authentic Greek cuisine and typically very generous serves. The staff attentive , entertaining and contributed to the evening ..Elias thanks for insisting we try the baklava..!!
The two man band was thoroughly entertaining But if you don’t like Greek music you may not appreciate their skill and repertoire...being Greek I loved it !!
We will definitely be coming back with our friends and family...
Μπράβο Πεδία!!
Our party of 11 celebrated New Year’s Eve ...we had a Fantastic time the set menu was ALL delicious and lots of food ...the bouzouki of Andonis was magnificent..great night ...highly recommended!!!

Good host, food and location. we were seated outside which takes away from enjoying live performances and also windy weather impacted our experience. Will visit again and hopefully get to sit in a place where we can also enjoy the live performances with everything else.

Great experience, especially with the live band on the weekend. Highly recommended.

Entrées: Octopus, pita with dips, scallops, grilled haloumi with figs
Mains: Prawn saganaki and Lamb cutlets
Desert: Baklava + Greek coffee

Great service. The host recommended an imported wine (not on the menu), we absolutely enjoyed it.

Highly recommended, can't wait to visit again!

Feels like a family run business (which is the best vibe for a restaurant) the food is awesome, and the environment is legit (growing their own lemons on the patio!)

The pita and dips were amazing, as was the halloumi and fig dish!

If you’re into European lagers, you have to try the Alpha beer…and the Mythos of course!

Definitely make this a place you visit when you’re in Woy Woy

This was my first time visiting Ela Mesa, WOW! Great service (Paula is amazing!) and the food was absolutely delicious! I can't wait to edit and upload my other camera shots, these mobile phone ones will have to do for now... I highly recommend this place for any functions, weddings, events or performance spaces. Well done to the friendly and efficient team at Ela Mesa. This StarViking Diva 🌟 enjoyed every minute!

I booked for about 35 people for my wifes suprise birthday.

Prior to the night i had changes in the amount of people and also doetry requirements

The guys at ela mesa accomodated everything without any issues at all making it a stress free process

In addition to that, the food was awesome as usual, probably the best value we have had on the coast and all the guests commented the same

Thankyou ela mesa for making it such a great night !

Always had a good experience here food and service is always nice, had the set menu for my mums birthday lunch couple weeks ago service was friendly and efficient food amazing I will be back

Delicious food, nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Other ratings seen to indicate consistent excellence. A safe bet for any occasion.

Food is pretty good and you get a good taste of greek food. Staff are nice and polite. Artworks on the wall give you a feeling of Greece and overall experience is really enjoyable. Highly recommended and good vibes there.

The food hear is top quality and fresh. We ordered muscles and went back for seconds. Great atmosphere and great food.

Can’t praise Ela Mesa highly enough! Everything is perfect every time! The people are lovely, the food devine and their Greek wines add a further level of authenticity. Plan a visit as soon as you can!

Great food friendly and knowledgeable staff and not too pricey.

Lovely food, helpful servers, food came out quickly and was delicious.

My experience was extraordinary. Not only did we enjoy a delicious lunch with charming service in a beautiful riverside spot, but when the restaurateurs later found I had left my loaded wallet behind they reported it to the Woy Woy police, traced and contacted one of my sons, drove to Sydney and delivered it to my front door in Bondi, politely but firmly refusing any reward. Have you ever heard of such kindness?

Great coffee spot. Coffee was good, atmosphere was chill and service was fast and friendly.
