Thank you!
To all of our customers that helped us get voted in the top 50 romantic restaurants in Australia as voted by Open Table users for the second year running ……… thank you very much, we feel pretty romantic about you some days too (you know who you are).
Elio’s Osteria at Carina is a small independently-owed restaurant. It has no association with any other restaurant, whether or not they may have a similar name. A google search will quickly identify Elio’s bar in Sydney, Elio’s Bistro in Victoria, Elio’s Restaurant in Chicago. There is no tie to any of them. It is not a franchise. My wife Nat and I bought it from the Vasta Family in 1999; they bought it from Elio and Margie Marinelli in about 1994; Elio and Margie set it up about 1984 (or so).
I am in nearly every day, my trusted crew look after the store when we are having a day away. Please say hi when you are in , we thrive on our regulars, some of them we have served for nearly 20 years between this restaurant and others we have owned and run.
