    Visited with my family before a Wizzards game at Capital One arena. Nice ambiance, casual, low key. Service was attentive. Nice selection of pizza, calzones, and pasta. Close to Metro. Would recommend if you're in Penn Quarter

    Always love Ella’s before an event at the arena. The food is excellent, and the service is outstanding,,especially if you’re in a time crunch.

    The pizza is excellent and so are the cocktails. We also love the atmosphere. It was very cozy on a cold winter evening

    Great Italian! Tried the pasta/sauce/ meatballs. Plan to go back to try the pizza. Sangria was good, too. Place was full,or nearly so but I don't recall the noise level being too bad. Can't beat the location, close walk from NW hotels or Cap One Arena. Good service. We would've liked a refill on our drinks but I'm still giving service full marks because we were basically done with our meal anyway. Such a great food experience we will definitely go back again
