   I have now been here a few times and I have not been disappointed either times! The only negative is that it is so hard to get a reservation, so if you see one take it.

   I like Elena’s-my 4rth visit but there should be a stanchion set up with a sign that says “LINE UP HERE IF YOU HAVE A RESERVATION” and put another stanchion on the opposite side that says “LINE UP HERE IF YOU DONT HAVE A RESERVATION” This would eliminate wasting 10 minutes of time especially at lunch opening.

   The service was excellent. I had the combo chicken enchilada and crispy beef taco dinner. the enchilada was topped with cheese, sour cream and a mild green sauce with blended spices, fresh squeezed lime, and blended cilantro. The kitchen attendant proudly served his creation to our table.

   Great food, great ambiance, great service and great portion-sizes. A bit pricey compared to similar restaurants in the Sunset-West Portal area, but we expected this. A great place to dine for a special occasion 1-2 times a year. We'll definitely be back!

   Even with a reservation for a birthday ahead of time, we waited 20 minutes. The start wasn’t great. That said, once we were seated everything was terrific.

   Elena’s is a beautiful restaurant. The food was average. The service was ok, but late bringing or drinks for the meal. We were Almost done eating before we got our Margaritas!

    The restaurant has good quality food with excellent service and ambience. Not high end epicurean Mexican food, but worth enjoying the experience. Keeps in fitting with the owner's 'Original Joe's' style and comfort.
