Ce resto est mon restaurant préféré à vie. Tout est bien pensé, tout est parfait! Les pâtes au vin rouge sont un rêve, le service (la serveuse Lauréanne est une perle rare!) & l'ambiance font du Elena, le Elena. Si vous y allez l'été, je vous conseille la terrasse! Bref, un détour à faire si vous êtes dans le coin!

Très bon. Surtout la salade de kale & le ragoût classique.
La pizza saucisse & scarole est très bonne & équilibrée. Je l'ai préféré aux autres que j'ai goûté, je l'ai trouvé plus subtile. Les classiques sont évidemment très bonnes aussi.
Pour ma part, ce qui fait que je reviens c'est le mafalda al ragu.

Elena delivers decent food but falls short of being memorable. Out of three pastas, none stood out, the spaghetti ubriaco didn't quite hit the mark & felt like a less successful version of spaghetti all'assassina, & the genovese was overpowered by spice. The pizzas & entrées were solid but unremarkable. The wine list, based on private imports without cépage details, felt overpriced for the gamble. Desserts were fine but uninspired.
Tara & Elora's excellent service was the highlight of the night & made the visit worthwhile.

Very nice place, typical Montreal style. Not easy to find. Very nice Italian food with a perfect wine menu.

I went with my husband & we had such a great time! We went for an early dinner, made a reservation (which turned out to be the best decision), & everything went perfectly. Our waitress was incredibly sweet & gave us excellent suggestions for both the food & wine. The surprises for me were the cauliflower entrée & their ricotta cheesecake - both were amazing! We'll definitely be back.

Had a quick bite over the weekend at the cafe as we didn't have a reservation & let me tell you that the service & the food were beyond worth it despite how busy it was. Super quick as we were headed to a show & super friendly despite the customization we have asked for. The food was fresh & yummy. Highly recommend for a date or even as group.
