ELA (NOUN) PRONOUNCED / Ē-LAH /
Recognized as the best restaurant in Palm Beach County in 2022, Ela Curry & Cocktails showcases refined and culturally-focused cuisine from across India in a dynamic selection of street food and fresh, daring thali-style dishes. Ela’s menu draws on James Beard Foundation nominated Chef Marathe’s experiences growing up in India and inspirations from family and friends, most significantly the traditional cooking of his mother and family. Our goal is to transport diners to India through traditional aromas and flavors, presentation, and style of eating.

Full beverage program featuring inventive, seasonal, and whimsical cocktails best enjoyed in the expansive patio and outside bar “Peacock Tiki” where sports bar meets Bollywood vibe.

El has truly become one of my family’s favorites. Both the staff and food are wonderful. The best thing for me, as someone who is celiac, is that there are so many delicious options. We did the tasting menu last night and our server, Javier adapted it to include some of our favorites along with a number of dishes we haven’t tried with all of them delicious and free of gluten. I’m a big fan.

The food was amazing & Ali, our waiter, was very helpful describing the food & helping with wine choice. The only problem was my husbands order was never processed so he had to wait a long time for his meal while we ate. He ended up taking it to go. Ali did offer free dessert, but at that point we all just wanted to get home. Regardless of the mistake we would return.

We had the most amazing dining experience tonight. Elisabetta was our server and she was full of information and recommendations. She was extremely nice and had a very pleasant attitude. The gentleman that served our wine was very nice and gregarious. I would like to say that the support staff, especially Mary, were so attentive and kept our table clean and tidy. We had the greatest experience with our out of town relatives on Thanksgiving eve. So nice to have an Indian restaurant in our neighborhood! Excellent food. BTW our relatives have traveled India extensively and said the food was as close to India as they have had back home.
