I really enjoyed the Kale Ceasar Salad & the margarita pizza as well as the ragu pasta. The diavolo pizza I was disappointed by. The pastas are well executed!
Dans mes favoris depuis plusieurs années. Tout est bon & l'ambiance est superbe!
ORIGINAL REVIEW: Although most people seem to go for the pizza, I go for the salads. Always fresh, well composed & delicious. They may look like a medium sized salad, but trust me there's a lot in that bowl. Only attempt to eat one yourself if you're super hungry.
UPDATE: The loss of the back terrasse is sad. It was so much more pleasant than sitting in a terrasse in a reclaimed parking spot right next to Notre Dame St. Traffic.
The white shop towels are sure to cover any dark clothing with a pile of white lint balls.
What was a great kale Caesar now has an overly sharp dressing with way too much vinegar.
Waiting 45 minutes for a pizza on a Tuesday night just after 5:00 in an empty restaurant is an unacceptable attempt to run a bar bill.
Never again.
My second time going to the restaurant & I liked the experience again but I was not happy to see that they charge tip after tax. You have been in violation of the law for more than 6 months. There is no excuse in my book.
Expérience générale impéccable.
Nous étions deux, assis au bar. Nous avons été pris en charge rapidement par le barman & notre serveur. Leur service était irréprochable.
Côté repas, tous étaient excellents. Arancini & polpettes en entrée, suivi d'une pizza style napolitaine & d'un plat de pâtes fraîches maison savoureux. Mention spéciale pour le gelato, qui était d'une onctuosité comme je n'en avais jamais gouté.
Je recommande vivement!
Excellent souper. Très bon service de la part des employés. Menus variés pour plaire à tous les goûts. Je recommande & j'y retournerai sans hésiter.
10/10 atmosphere & food!
The sourdough & kale caesar are unbeatable for kicking off a meal, & we had fun discovering some new wines. The Margherita, Dany, & Passion Patate pizzas were all incredible. Perfect'pizza night' way beyond typical.
I really wanted to like Elena, especially after seeing so many great reviews, but overall it fell a bit short for me.
We started with the kale ceasar salad, which was quite salty, probably from all that Parmesan, so maybe that's just how it's meant to be. For pizzas, we tried two. The Amatriciana wasn't really my thing, I didn't like how the flavours came together, so it might have been a bad choice on my part. On the other hand, the pizza Dany was an expected delicious surprise: the spinach & hot honey were delicious; the sesame seeds a nice touch.
That said, the dough on both pizzas was very good. The spicy oil, however, wasn't spicy at all, which was a bit disappointing. Maybe they have different versions, but the one we got had no heat.
One of us wanted a tea, but they don't offer tea at all. For dessert, I got a decaf latte to have with the cake, but it arrived way later, more than halfway through it. The cake itself, though, the hazelnut with the gelato…very good.
Service was another weak point. The wait for everything was long, & at one point, the waitress came to clean the table, but just quickly wiped around without actually picking any of the pizza crumbs, which felt a bit careless.
The place itself is beautiful, nicely dimmed lights & a great atmosphere visually, but the music felt too loud for this type of restaurant.
All in all, I guess it wasn't that bad of an experience, I definitely expected better given the hype. I might give it another try, but this visit didn't quite live up to expectations.
Great food. Great wine, solid beer & beautiful space. Will definitely be back
Great pasta & starters. Good spot for a quiet date for two. Dining room is a little tight for larger groups. I've been here a few times & have loved the food every time. Kale Caesar salad is a must.
My daughter had a reservation for 7pm on the 26th of December for a birthday, it was confirmed a month ago. We received a call this morning to confirm the reservation & saying the was a glitch in the system, the reservation was for outdoor seating, the hostess offered 6pm or 8h15pm, the times didn't work for us, she sarcastically offered to set up a table outside warning they have no warmers, today is minus 21!
I worked 35 in hospitality, I would layoff this not qualified hostess today. If employees cannot work with public they should look for other opportunities, the first impression is what makes or breaks the experience.
She created more damage for your business than her wage.
Pizza pour emporter.
Si vous aimez la pizza à croute très mince avec pratiquement presque rien sur le dessus & bien cette pizza est pour vous.
Très décevant pour le prix mais malgré tout c'était correct sans plus.
On n'y retournera pas.
The minute we stepped in we were greeted & seated. The service was amazing , they really know their menu & are very friendly. The food was wonderful. We had the fried cauliflower with a red pepper coulisses, a pasta dish & a sesame, spinach & hot honey pizza wow !!
Excellente expérience chez Elena à Montréal ! Tout était absolument succulent, des plats savoureux & parfaitement exécutés, jusqu'aux moindres détails. Le service était exceptionnel : attentionné, professionnel & chaleureux. Une adresse incontournable que je recommande sans hésitation.
Déçue par la taille des pizzas.
Complètement différentes de celles qui sont affichées sur tiktok.
Payer aussi cher pour des pizzas qui sont petites.
Insipide & chargée de sésame & trop salée.
Déçue !
