Elena is a gastronomic project under the concept of cuisine from the ground floor, in an environment
of comfort where diners can enjoy an extremely pleasant experience and
within a fun and relaxed atmosphere.
The restaurant offers a menu where our respect and appreciation for local ingredients is reflected, always using the freshest and best quality ingredients. The result is dishes created using a mix of influences from traditional and contemporary cuisines.
We ensure that the best accompaniment to our cuts of meat and seafood is, without a doubt, a good glass of wine. Our wine list is made up largely of wines from the Valle de Guadalupe, consistent with the idea of taking advantage of the region's product. Or if you fancy something more refreshing, we have a House Mixology menu from the most experimental and avant-garde to classic cocktails.

Elena es el nombre del restaurante principal dentro del cual contamos con una cava con los mejores vinos de la región así como italianos, franceses y españoles de la mas alta calidad para brindar una experiencia de 360 grados entorno al vino. Gracias al clima tipo mediterráneo contamos con una cocina con productos locales como frutas, olivos, quesos y por supuesto frutos del mar como abulón, langosta y pesca sustentable a lo que le denominamos COCINA DE LA BAJA .

We had a reservation on Valentines Day indoor. We waited over an hour for our table. They were very polite and kind about it and offered a place to sit outside while we waited but still poor operations. After waiting an hour they created a table for by us by pulling out a table which was very nice effort but we were placed next to a door and people kept walking in and out. Food was uneventful. Not bad, but when you are surrounded by so many good restaurants in the area it feels a little flat.

La comida es excelente, los precios un poco elevados, pero el servicio es terrible, 20minutos de espera para que nos permitieran la carta, 20min para que nos trajeran la bebida y para colmo la cuenta con cargos extra

We were there on a Monday and were the only guests. Service was outstanding, as there was no one else to serve. Food was good and pretty well priced for the area. Only negative I would say was the “bait and switch” we experienced while ordering drinks. We asked for a certain brand of mezcal and they didn’t have it. We asked for any other house mezcal. We were brought a “booze cart” and chose a drink (without pricing)..needless to say our one shot each cost much more than our entire meals. Beware the booze cart!
