Je suis allée chez Elena à quelques reprises, & c'est un véritable incontournable. C'est toujours délicieux, dans un décor magnifique & une ambiance conviviale qui donne envie de s'attarder.

Nous y sommes allés en groupe pour un anniversaire, & ce fut une soirée merveilleuse. Le menu fixe de groupe était exceptionnel, il permettait de goûter à tout, ce qui a vraiment plu à tout le monde.

Tout était excellent : les entrées, les pizzas, les pâtes, & le dessert… mention spéciale au gelato, probablement le meilleur que j'ai mangé!

Une expérience mémorable du début à la fin.

Excellent!
My daughter surprised me with a birthday dinner at Elena. When we arrived, our table was not ready & our host Olivier sat us at the bar & suggested a glass of bubbly wine while we waited. Once seated at our table, our server was very friendly & attentive. We started with the olives & the salumi - both very good quality. We then shared a Caesar Salad & the Supplì. The salad was tasty & you could tell that the dressing was made in house. The supplì were just as good as the ones I had in Rome. We then had the pasta special, triangular ravioli with ricotta & artichokes, with a very light sauce made with mint, lemon zest & Parmesan … what a surprise!! It was delicious & refreshing & very well designed. We also had the AP style pizza which was amazing. We had gelato for dessert, the pistachio was to die for ! During the meal the service was great, & Olivier was knowledgeable & great at suggesting wine pairings.
We will definitely be back!

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 salad was very salty & just lettuce & about 3 croutons. The pizza was very garlicky & came cold. We were seated about 6 inches from the table next to us which meant we almost had to chat with them, even though it was a date night. There's no sign out front. Our uber driver couldn't find it. Definitely expected better given the hype.

Recently dined at Elena. The evening started well with a warm greeting & a friendly, knowledgeable server.

We ordered a bottle of white wine & several dishes to share. The food was delicious & well done, & it's worth noting that this review is based on the experience rather than the food itself.

That said, a few things took away from the night. The wine was served without a cooler, & the restaurant became noticeably colder as the evening went on, to the point where it was freezing by the end. As the night progressed, the friendliness from our server faded & they were often not nearby when we wanted to order more.

Overall, great food, but the service & comfort level didn't match it.

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.
