Our Story
Elia Greek Cuisine opened its doors in 2007, founded by two sisters, Charoula and Anastasia, who brought with them years of experience from working in renowned restaurants across Munich. With a passion for Greek food and culture, they decided to create something of their own in the heart of Schwabing.
The name Elia comes from the olive tree, which reminded the owners of their mother, who hailed from Epirus, a region in Greece. The olive branch became a symbol of their deep connection to their roots.
At Elia, our philosophy is built on serving only the freshest ingredients, many of which are homemade. We focus on traditional Greek dishes, keeping our recipes authentic while adapting them to modern tastes. We strive to deliver fresh, seasonal food that speaks to both the past and present, offering a true tasteof Greece in every bite.
Today, the restaurant is led by George Kourtis, the son and nephew of the founders, who continues to uphold the family’s vision while welcoming a new generation of guests

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY
See why our guests love Elia
“Simply wonderful. Very friendly service and good food. Good wines too. We love coming here, especially in the summer. We’ve already had many pleasant hours at the E lia. It’s too loud inside for us. Therefore, we prefer summer.”
“The ambience in Frankenallee is very tasteful and the map matches it. Attentive service, great aperitif variations and a great taste experience. Highly recommended. However, the price is also adapted to the performance”
“Wir haben am Nachmittag spontan einen Tisch für 19:00 Uhr reserviert. Die Kellner sehr aufmerksam. Das Essen durch die Bank sehr lecker und frisch. Pr-eis-Leistung echt super.. ..wir kommen wieder..”
“Ich habe mit Freundinnen einen schönen Abend verbracht bei exzellenten Essen und sehr freundlicher Bedienung. Ich kann das Elia auf jeden Fall weiter empfehlen”
“Rund um kompetentes Personal, sehr gutes Essen, Extrawünsche werden immer erfüllt. Wer einen günstigen Griechen sucht, ist hier falsch, wer einen tollen Abend genießen will, ist hier richtig.”
“Bester Grieche in München. Alle Speisen super gut, daher sind die Preise absolut gerechtfertigt. Wir holen das Essen immer zum Mitnehmen und das Essen schmeckt zu Hause wie im Restaurant. Das Zaziki ist ein Traum und zum Reinlegen.”
