Elios Restaurant in Epping Forest

Treated really well. Food was great we all enjoyed our visit.

Fabulous evening,food was lovely,great service 🙃

Maybe it was the night we chose, but we were the only people there till a couple came in as we were finishing. Chef didnt know how to make garlic bread!

We visited for a family lunch recently and had a great meal. Service and food both excellent. However I knocked a mark off as a service charge was added (we were only a small group of three). Unfortunately we found out that none of this actually goes to the waiting staff, which is pretty poor. A new law comes into effect later this year which will ensure the owners must share tips with its staff.

Gorgeous Italian restaurant with some of the most authentic food I’ve had in years. The service is welcoming and warm. We had the carbonara and lasagna with bruschetta and tiramisu, couldn’t fault anything. I’m not usually one to leave reviews, but Elios blew us away! Will definitely be returning.

What a lovely evening spent with family celebrating a birthday. Food was delicious, ambience fantastic and staff were friendly and more than happy to help. It was also great to meet the owners, who were brilliant. We shall see you again very soon. X

One of the best authentic Italian restaurants around. You can taste the love and passion in the food. Very friendly staff. A gem of Italy on Epping high street.

We celebrated my husbands 30th birthday here a few weeks back and we haven't stopped talking about it since! The food ,the customer care and the drinks were all out of this world fantastic , tj and Kerry were so helpful in the planning of the whole evening and went above and beyond to make the night perfect for us , all 34 people of us have said how delicious the food and cocktails were they were so attentive even for the amount of us there was and are all in talks in returning on a regularly basis it was enjoyed by all , thank you so much we will be back very soon!

Amazing place!!! We had such a good time! Service and food are brilliant I really recommend this place for a good night! Owner is a great person! Love it

Amazing amazing service and food was star strucked when I tried their new added steak on their specials list WOW WOW WOW!!! the waitress was quick on her feet and so lively and fun and made our night a 10/10 experience. Drinks were delicious I am so impressed definitely recommend!!!

In my opinion, a bit pricey for what you get. 4 starters and 4 pasta mains, 8 soft drinks £160. Portion sizes good and food was tasty.

We went to Elios restaurant on Saturday 18th November. We can only agree with all of the previous comments. Excellent food and service - the staff and owner couldn't have been nicer. We were so impressed that we have booked a table there for Christmas Eve!

This is an absolutely superb restaurant, amazing food, brilliant sevice and great atmosphere. Thank you Laura for a great evening and we will see you again very soon

First time visiting Elios for my husbands birthday meal with family. We all really enjoyed it. We shared garlic bread to start, then 3 of us had pastas and my husband had veal in cream mushroom sauce. All lovely and fresh. The strawberry cheesecake dessert was also delicious. The owner was very friendly and welcoming which I haven’t found in many of the other local restaurants in Epping. The restaurant decor is beautiful and restaurant was very clean. We will definitely return soon.

Very pleasant and stylish restaurant. I loved the decor and color scheme. The variety of food is really good! We had mussels from day special menu and mains. The size of portions are hearty with fresh ingredients (even took some away) Highly recommend

My family and I had a lovely meal. The service was excellent food, fantastic. The owners are really helpful particularly with one of our party who was in a wheelchair. Also very kid friendly

What a lovely evening we had. Great table, service, food, wine, attention and music was spot on. Thoroughly felt at home and will definitely be back.

Heard this restaurant from a few people and decided to give it a go. We had excellent time here. Green Olives was delicious. Mozzeralla was very creamy and fresh, stuffed mushrooms were divine. The veal with mushroom sauce was thinly cut and tender also was very good portion definetly worth the price. Good wine list too Malbec was quality. Nice elegant decor, definitely recommend it.

Really lovely restaurant, great food, great atmosphere and got given 2 drinks on the house by the owner TJ who was working alone and still gave perfect service! Also very accommodating for dietary requirements, I got gluten free pasta which tasted amazing. Thanks TJ for the best Sunday!

Amazing food, beautiful decor and very good service. Lots of vegetarian options too!

Amazing food and service! Extremely welcoming staff. All around great atmosphere. Definitely recommend.

This is a fantastic place to dine and also enjoy a drink always made to feel welcome and food is so tasty overall it’s a perfect place to chill out and relax nothing is to much for them and always welcome you with a smile on their face Starters mains and deserts what can we say all top marks thanks guys Tony Christine and Sam

Had a great night out. Food was delicious, staff really friendly and attentive, was a fun atmosphere. We were very well looked after. Looking forward to going back!

we were very impressed by the place, the food was simply delicious and the pizza takes you to Italy, I will always come back when I need to eat a tasty pizza

This was our first visit, but it won't be our last. Charming staff, good food, nice (if noisy) atmosphere. I enjoyed the veal. Good value.

Excellent meal at Elio’s! Fantastic hospitality, the owner took great care of us and the food was delicious. Highly recommend the chocolate soufflé! Looking forward to our next visit

We went here on a whim looking for somewhere different and were pleasantly surprised. Their special board is great, the staff are so lovely and the service is some of the best we’ve experienced in a long while! We got offered complimentary shots of limoncello with our desserts. We were planning on coming back before we’d eaten simply because we couldn’t make a decision on what to order because it all looked good, but afterwards this will be one of our favourites. Thank you :)

A lovely restaurant, food excellent, very good service and a lovely atmosphere.

The food was amazing ,great menu. Really friendly. Our waiter was attentive and friendly with a good sense of humour. We meet the owners who introduced themselves. They are invested in offering the best food and they did . We will be back

We came to Elios in celebration of my grandmas 70th Birthday and it was brilliant all round. The food and service was amazing. Staff were extremely friendly and made the occasion lovely! Would definitely recommend and will also be returning! Thank you, Elios!

I booked Elios for a birthday party and it was the best decision ever. Everyone enjoyed themselves, the atmosphere is lovely and so are the staff. The staff all went above and beyond to make it a memorable experience with amazing food. The ravioli lobster and the chicken milenese were delicious and the cocktails were great! 100% recommend.

We had a lovely meal out in Elios this evening. The food was amazing and the staff very attentive and efficient. Looking forward to returning for their bottomless brunch 😍

Fantastic, fairly priced pizza. Very average but overpriced pasta. Will return, but only for the delicious pizza.

Excellent restaurant. Very good Italian food. Attentive staff. Nice atmosphere.

Had a great time at Elios tonight! Good food, good music and great staff, a lovely selection of wines and cocktails too. Will definitely be returning soon!!

Came to Epios for our anniversary with my family. Beautiful food and excellent service. Sat by the windows and enjoyed the atmosphere. Try the carpaccio!!! The staff were so attentive!!!

Excellent service and excellent food definitely recommend to friends.

Great music, great food, great service. Will be coming back!

We held a surprise 70th Birthday party at Elios. The restaurant was amazing - so helpful, attentive and friendly. They went out of their way to make it a fun experience for all of our guests. The portions were generous and the food was delicious too. We'll definitely go there again. Thank you!

Went for lunch with my partner & baby granddaughter, staff very welcoming & attentive especially with granddaughter 💕 fantastic food , nicely presented, comfortable environment All round a very special restaurant & highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Visited today 6th june for my husband and his sister 71st birthday.lovely food and tj the owner so funny and looked after us .will definatly return

As a lover of Mediterranean cuisine, I really liked the food here. 😍 In particular, the quality of the ingredients used in the dishes was immediately apparent. The dishes, prepared with great care, were delicious. A place I would definitely recommend. 👍👌

Beautiful decor, great ambience, perfect risotto. Great menu. A must visit. Definitely will be returning!

DO NOT GO HERE we went to Elios and it took over an hour to get our food and when it arrived we were served RAW chicken!!! It was unbelievable and so dangerous - literally totally raw inside! My pasta was also absolutely tasteless. We waited for a new chicken dish and were given a free drink as a sorry but then we were charged for the second chicken dish! I refused to pay for the replacement we had waited 1hr 40minsfor - the follow up to the dish that could have made us beyond ill!! My main regret is on arrival of that dish we should have just left. Not serving raw chicken... basic 101 stuff. Very sad as it would have been nice to have a new addition to Epping restaurants.

Lovely restaurant, lovely food and very attentive friendly staff

Nice restaurant food decent and very Italian

Lovely food. Beautiful interior and friendly staff.

My friend and I had dinner at Elios last night and it was fantastic! The restaurant is gorgeously decorated, the service was excellent, the food was lovely (I had the burrata along with a king prawn dish, while my friend had seafood spaghetti), and the owners are incredibly kind and friendly. Go and support this new local gem!

Wonderful new restaurant with great gluten free options. It is beautifully decorated and the staff are lovely! Will definitely be back!

Excellant food, fantastic service, good atmosphere with great music,very good coffee to finish our meal .Tj was the perfect host and took the time to sit with us and chat with us after our meal. Would definitely come back again and would recomend to anyone who enjoys good food in a friendly atmosphere. Thanks guys for a lovely evening tonight.

Thank you for an amazing evening. The food was fantastic. The service was outstanding. Definitely will be back soon and will bring friends. Highly recommend to anyone.

After visting Elios I was flabbergasted by the impeccable standards this restaurant had to bring. The sophisticated aesthetic and rustic food really made my dining experience and would highly recommend

Went here to try it out . What a wonderful restaurant. The standards were so high, the service and food were amazing. I will definitely be returning and recommend you give it a go ... thank you for a great evening Elios.

Would give 0 stars if that was possible. The worst Italian I have had in a long time. Caprese: the mozzarella was obviously not buffalo but a cheap unbagged ball of cheese. The tomatoes were not ripe. Tasted like nothing. Arancini: inedible. Rice was overcooked. Absolutely zero seasoning. Tomato sauce was terrible. Calamari: again - NO seasoning. Tartar sauce was akin to a jarred sauce. Kitchen staff need to learn to season. Complete waste of money and food. Wish I could have the two hours of my life and my money back.

Elios is a newly refurbished, lovely restaurant with great selection of delicious meals. It looks really clean. Staff were welcoming and ready to help with our requests. I recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a cosy environment to dine in.

First time at the restaurant since it had changed to an Italian and it was absolutely delicious. We loved the variety of the food and the cocktails were amazing. Definitely recommend the Elios Elixr, Lychee cooler and the French Martini. The owner TJ was extremely helpful and took care of us during the evening. Between the 3 of us we had the spaghetti lobster , seafood risotto and the seafood spaghetti. Was all amazing with great flavours and excellent portions. Definitely a must visit.

Lovely new addition to the High Street. Yummy food, we had the specials: crayfish and prawn salad, which was tasty: and the scallops and bacon which was even more lovely! Main courses: spaghetti lobster which was plentiful and delicious, and we had seafood risotto, which was good. Great cocktails and service too. Will definitely be back!

My new favourite restaurant! The staff are so lovely and the food is incredible, I can’t wait to go back!

Lovely staff- so friendly and welcoming!!!

Beautiful restaurant - gorgeous decor and smells amazing in there! Food was delicious and very big portions. TJ the owner is such a lovely host he took great care of us all. The cocktails were to die for extremely delicious. Overall 10/10 experience this will be our new favourite Italian!!

Best Italian in the area. Such friendly people!

Delicious food and lovely friendly service.

The worst so called Italian I have ever been to and surely not in its business plan No seasoning no taste no garlic and how can you get so little taste from a basic Italian source Steak was not rare but raw Got up and went to Gail’s I hope they learn quickly for I really think it has opportunities and potential

I went to the opening of Elios yesterday. Very tastefully decorated, good atmosphere, good food.

Visited Elios this week and looking forward to returning again soon. Prawns, risotto, ribs and pasta all fresh and delicious. The restaurant is really tastefully decorated and the staff so friendly and helpful too. Perfect restaurant for a meal with family or friends.

Went to the opening of Elios restaurant, what a fabulous evening! Well done to the new owners, from the food to decor and friendly staff everything was perfect. Is a great place for families, groups and couples. Will definitely be visiting again!

I visited the new Elios restaurant yesterday and it was a fantastic evening. The staff were amazing, very attentive. The food and wine was brilliant with a great selection. The décor is very tasteful and has a great ambiance. The owners are very friendly and welcoming. I honestly have nothing to complain about. I will defiantly be a returning customer and if I could rate this restaurant more than 5* I would. Excellent place :-)

I went to the restaurant last night and the ambience was relaxing with delicious food and pleasant staff who went out of there way to ensure we had the best experience- will definitely return and let friends and family know this is the place to go 👍

A new restaurant which was excellent Staff were very friendly and welcoming nothing too much trouble Decor was clean and fresh and the ambiance was perfect Plenty of options on menu and it was a very enjoyable evening at a very good price
