Fabulous pizza in a great setting. This place is always busy so be sure to make a reservation.

Pizza is excellent as always! However the service was inattentive: our server came by only a few times. More importantly we asked for our leftover slices to be boxed up & they never gave us our pizza! I was looking forward to that but they clearly were trying to turn the table once we paid. That's so bizarre & rude!

Reserved a seat for a small group a week in advance, only to be placed at the bar table right by the entrance door. The pizzas were pretty mediocre, burnt (not leoparding, just burnt & bitter) & the crust was dense & lacked air pockets, I'm quite sure the entire batch was under-proofed that day.

Elena offers simple Italian cuisine & a pleasant atmosphere, well suited for a casual night out.
During my visit, everything was fine overall, but nothing really stood out, particularly the food, which I found fairly classic for the price.
For a similar budget, I personally find that Moreiras delivers a richer dining experience & a noticeably warmer ambiance.
That said, Elena remains a decent option depending on what you're looking fo

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.

Recommandé par des amis habitant dans le quartier, je suis allé en famille un soir de semaine visité l'établissement. Il est discret, j'ai dû regarder deux fois pour être sur que j'étais au bon endroit. On est en semaine, il est encore tôt, quelques clients occupent déjà la salle & à entre leur conversation avec les serveuses, je comprend qu'il y a quelques habitués & des touristes de passage. Le décor a du cachet, élégant, chic en plus d'être lumineux. L'accueil est courtois, le service attentionné. La carte est sobre, entrées, salades, pizzas, pâtes & desserts. La carte des vins & boissons alcoolisées est beaucoup plus fourni, c'est l'endroit idéal pour boire un verre entre amis, collègues & profiter de leur terrasse. Personnellement, j'ai pris la Mozza di bufala, épinards, miel épicé & sésame. J'ai adoré ! La pâte est à la fois tendre, croquante, un peu brûlé (on aime ça). Les pates valent le détour aussi. Les portions sont généreuses, je n'ai pas pris d'entrée, ni de dessert. Il va falloir revenir pour visiter à nouveau la carte !

Wrote in the reservation notes that we we're celebrating a birthday but it was a surprise. Immediately on arrival, the hostess mentioned the birthday (bummer). Barely any service, it took twenty minutes before I had to ask who I could order with. The waitress came by twice in the +2hours we were there & didn't speak a word. Not one hi & did not check in to see if the food was okay. We honestly didn't even know she spoke English until we asked for the bill. Our entire table works in service & we can all say that the servers go around looking at the tables but don't actually speak to their clients unless its to collect their payment. We never tip less than 20% but tonight, tipping 15% felt wrong considering the only service we truly got was from the bartender (he took our order as well). Probably best as a takeout spot…..
