The other evening I found myself at Elio’s an upscale, trendy, Italian restaurant where you might spot a celebrity or 2 but unfortunately I didn’t see anyone I knew…Lol  The restaurant is located at 1621 2nd Avenue between 83rd and 84th Street.

Here’s a view from outside the restaurant…

Here’s a view from the inside…

So there were so many interesting Italian dishes on the menu but it was late, I wasn’t that hungry and I wanted to keep it simple so I decided to order two appetizers.  The first was a Seafood Salad.  It was divine. It was sooo fresh and included octopus, shrimp and scallops with a light vinaigrette that I had on the side. It was great!!

With that I ordered a tomato salad with green, yellow and red tomatoes and so yum…corn. Very fresh!

Also with a light vinaigrette type of dressing “on the side”Lol

So if you’re uptown and want really good Italian food then try Elio’s.

But it is pricey, so be prepared…
