Imrahil replies to Legolas by saying that the Elves had walked in his lands a long ago; earlier he is shown with his knights, all looking alike with grey eyes and tall bearing; perhaps it's not a direct line of descent? He and his knights are portrayed as being very truly Numenorean, it might be that he is not the only one descended from Elves (arguably he's the first Dol Amroth man Legolas meets in the city) and more mixing was possible as Elves had lived there while Gondor flourished. Legolas doesn't say anything about Faramir or Boromir who both should have some kind of Elf-blood recognition through their mum, oddly enough.
