Loved the pizzas (mushrooms, alamatriciana & Marguerita), Mafalda ragu & panzanella with fresh bread. Next time I want to try the salads. They looked amazing. Service & food are impeccable. The seats outside we so nice & quiet.
What an incredible dining experience from start to finish.
The service was absolutely top-notch. Everyone was warm, attentive, & knowledgeable without ever making us feel rushed. They made the entire evening feel special.
Every dish we ordered was outstanding. The kale salad was fresh & packed with flavor, the Margherita pizza reminded me of the authentic pizzas I enjoyed in Italy, & the morel mushroom pasta was simply the best pasta I've ever had. It was rich, perfectly balanced, & unforgettable.
The atmosphere was lively yet comfortable, making it the perfect place to relax & enjoy a great meal with family. Everyone at our table loved their food, which is saying a lot.
This was easily one of the best restaurant experiences I've had in Montreal, & I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for exceptional food, outstanding service, & a memorable evening.
Ce restaurant était sur ma liste à essayer depuis longtemps
Les points positifs: la nourriture. A prix raisonnable pour la quantité & la qualités. Des salades généreuses & des pizzas délicieuses
Les contre: le choix des vins & des cidre au verre était décevant & le service un peu trop familier. Me faire tutoyer par une hôtesse en short & en crocs dès mon arrivée disons que ça ne fitte pas avec l'expérience que je recherchais

Had a good time with friends on a Saturday night. Was open quite late with our reservation at 22h00. They remained open for as long as we were ordering drinks & talking. The food was appreciated by everyone, & the Ceasar salad was impressive to see. I was not 100% of the pizza I ordered, which is a shame because they are all wood oven baked. I still very much recommend the place. It has a sophisticated vibe.
Cute spot! Would be so easy to walk by on the street, but a little gem. We had the Dante salad to start which was yummy, although there are artichokes in it, not a lot mostly just the lettuce & radicchio but nice & refreshing.
Between 3 people we shared 2 pizzas, the M Funguy which was a white sauce style pizza, with wild mushrooms & a nice garlic butter flavour. We also had the Diavolo 2.0 pizza, which was slightly spicy, with the salami & peppers (fancy pepperoni pizza). Both pizzas were good & I'd have them again!
We had the chocolate tarte for dessert, & if you like chocolate it's very good, a rich dark chocolate flavour.
Only « negative » per say is it is a bit pricey for the pizzas, but you pay for a nice ambiance in the restaurant.
Has a cute decor, & lots of classic apéritives like amaros & grappa.
The cacio y pepe pasta was sooo dry & basic i was shocked for a italian restaurant… cesar salad was mid… only good thing was the arancinni & thats kinda hard to mess up
Our family's new favorite restaurant. The Kale Caesar salad, Fried Risotto balls, Funguy pizza, Fried Cauliflower, the Dany pizza, & the Kevin Mccallister pizza for the kids were all exceptional! The pistachio & chocolate gelatos were the tastiest we ever had. We are definitely coming back! The service was amazing especially our waiter who made our first experience there true perfection.
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!
