We tried two pizzas while here - the Amatriciana & the mushroom pizza. Between the two, the mushroom pizza was our fave as it was a more interesting flavour profile. We also tried the Italian soda, which was orange & vanilla flavoured, I found it to just be okay. It was super busy on a Sunday evening, but it was also their special anniversary night. I felt like it was hard to have a conversation given how loud it was in the restaurant & at times hard to even hear our server. Regardless it was a good experience & the mushroom pizza would be worth coming back for.

Food was excellent & very tasty I feel that service wasn't to the level I would expect coming from this place. Don't get me wrong, I have heard only good things about Elena. But at a certain moment, they took our unfinished plates & went immediately to the next service. Also sometimes, we were waiting for a long period of time for the waitress to come see us but I guess that it might have been a busy night & want to give the benefit of the doubt. I would still strongly recommend this place 😉

We were a group of 7. We all got different types of pizzas. I enjoyed the funguy pizza (mushroom pizza), margarita pizza was nice too. I liked the thin, crunchiness of the crust. As an appetizer I had the Suppli al Telefono, fried risotto with mozzarella, very nice & had a good crunch to it as well. They have a good option for wine, a lot of options to choose from! Over all I had a good experience, our server was very informative & helpful!

Funguy (mushroom) pizza & ragu pasta were amazing! Perfect balance with the right amount of flavors. The pepperoni pizza had a spicy so look for another pizza if you can't handle it.

Amazing italian spot - The Mafalda al Ragù must be the best pasta dish in Montreal. Also, alot of dishes to share with friends (appetizers, pizza, salads, etc.)

One of the best pizza in town, especially their mushroom pizza. Swanky interior decor while having a discreet exterio

A very underwhelming & overpriced pizza spot. Sat us outside under crammed heaters while it rained, with a reservation. Wood fired pizza for $27 should have something a little more exciting going on. Worth skipping if you're visiting from out of town
