Where to Eat and Drink in West Town

"Elina’s is a BYO Italian restaurant with a succinct menu inside a tiny space. There’s more of a chef’s touch here compared to many of the other Italian spots in the area. Find fresh pasta, chicken Parmesan, and more. It’s a spot that will impress diners on dates and for picky eaters who don’t like fancy spots. This is a restaurant that will fool them." - Eater Staff
