Many guests highlight the vibrant atmosphere, stylish design, and attentive service as key components of a memorable dining experience.

Loved the waiters always serving water, so attentive that my glass was never empty
The ragout was great & their gelato/sorbet is delicious
You cannot tell this is a restaurant from the outside so it gives a great underground vibe

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

The pizza was really good, the pasta too. Smaller cozy vibe inside which I liked, & the kale Caesar was really good . Would definitely go back.

🔥 Elena - Where the Diavola 2.0 steals the show

Everything about this meal was a win.

We kicked things off with a super fresh salad-light, crisp, & topped with a generous layer of shaved parmesan & herbs. Simple, but dialed in perfectly.

Then came the star: the Diavola 2.0. Wood-fired crust with that perfect leopard spotting, spicy soppressata, rich tomato sauce, & just enough heat to keep it interesting without overpowering the balance. Every bite hit.

The cocktail? Smooth, well-balanced, & paired great with the meal. & the vibe? Cool, modern, with the open kitchen adding just the right amount of buzz without being chaotic.

Elena doesn't just serve great food-it delivers an experience. Thoughtful, refined, & ridiculously satisfying. Already planning the next visit.

The Diavolo 2.0 pizza was incredible! Spicy, flavorful, & perfectly balanced. We enjoyed it on the backyard patio, which gave the whole experience a cozy, picnic-like vibe.
