What an incredible dining experience from start to finish.

The service was absolutely top-notch. Everyone was warm, attentive, & knowledgeable without ever making us feel rushed. They made the entire evening feel special.

Every dish we ordered was outstanding. The kale salad was fresh & packed with flavor, the Margherita pizza reminded me of the authentic pizzas I enjoyed in Italy, & the morel mushroom pasta was simply the best pasta I've ever had. It was rich, perfectly balanced, & unforgettable.

The atmosphere was lively yet comfortable, making it the perfect place to relax & enjoy a great meal with family. Everyone at our table loved their food, which is saying a lot.

This was easily one of the best restaurant experiences I've had in Montreal, & I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for exceptional food, outstanding service, & a memorable evening.

We'll definitely be back!

Had a good time with friends on a Saturday night. Was open quite late with our reservation at 22h00. They remained open for as long as we were ordering drinks & talking. The food was appreciated by everyone, & the Ceasar salad was impressive to see. I was not 100% of the pizza I ordered, which is a shame because they are all wood oven baked. I still very much recommend the place. It has a sophisticated vibe.

My friends & I enjoyed this place mostly due to the atmosphere & good service. The food really wasn't very special. For a restaurant that only serves pizza & pasta, why is there only 3 pasta choices? We had the pizza Dany. It was very original but overall wasn't the biggest fan & wouldn't order again. It didn't taste like a pizza & it was a bit overly sweet. The basque cheesecake was probably the best thing we had. Overall very underwhelmed & will not return/recommend but it does have a nice vibe

We were highly recommended to try Elena for their pizza, & it absolutely lived up to the hype.
We started with the meatballs & marinated red peppers as appetizers-both were incredible. The meatballs were rich & flavorful, & the peppers were perfectly balanced & delicious.
The pizza was outstanding. Every bite was spot on, from the crust to the toppings.
Everything we had was absolutely perfect. This is definitely a place I'd come back to without hesitation.

Very loud. You're also seated quite closed to other guests.

Had pizza (great) with lamb pasta (also great) with tiramisu (served with filtered coffee, do not recommend).

All in all a decent experience, but don't get the hype honestly.
