I had gone to Elena Wu’s when it was over by the movie theater, but I wanted to try the newer location near the mall. (They call it the Voorhees Town Center, but it’s the mall. It’s just outside buildings now.) Anyhow, this is a good date restaurant. It’s fancy, white linens, anxious waiters— The whole deal.
I ordered the Elena Salad which was lettuce, chicken and crunchy bits with a side of dressing which tasted peanut-y to me. I thought it would be ginger, but it was good. I wanted some sushi, but it is pretty pricey. I was looking at like $50 minimum if I got my normal order, so I figured I’d just get an appetizer. I got two pieces of white tuna and when I ate them, I almost wished I had spent that money. Excellent.
Finally, I ordered Grandfather Chicken (sesame chicken) and that was really filling. It was a nice portion. The total bill was around $33 and change, so $40 with the tip with my bottomless iced tea. A little high, but worth it.
I give Elena Wu’s 7 out of 10 keggers.
