Globalement, Elena est perçue comme une adresse italienne à Montréal où pizzas à pâte fine et pâtes bien exécutées côtoient des salades et antipasti qui séduisent, dans une ambiance chic et cosy qui peut aussi s ouvrir sur une terrasse agréable; les expériences sont majoritairement positives avec un service attentif et une belle sélection de vins, mais certains avis signalent des points d amélioration tels que des pizzas parfois brûlées ou de petites portions pour le prix, des plats qui manquent d harmonie ou des attentes longues et des soucis mineurs de facturation; la carte met en avant des classiques comme le kale Caesar, le mafalda al ragu et des pizzas telles que la Dany ou la Diavolo, offrant une expérience plaisante pour les sorties en amoureux ou entre amis et renforcée par une réputation solide, tout en laissant entendre que la constance peut varier selon les visites.
Cynthia was top notch! We were visiting from Toronto & she is so awesome. Her energy made the vibe & experience so fun. Great unique Italian food options & excellent dessert

It's expensive but very good. At 2/3 the price it would be a classic. That means top-tier food, great service, & all the accoutrements. There's expansive terrace outside, which was a gossent for us. Cocktails & mocktails were best so far in la ville aux milles clochers. The Elenagroni scratched my hitch for fernet (or did it only make it worse?) The issue is: $20 + 15% tax + 20% tip that's getting awfully close to $30 for a drink. Are we doing $30 drinks now? I don't know, maybe? But it's 5 star material: the menu appears to be uniformly quality dishes, the décor is nice & fresh in the restaurant. Oh, & very well managed place. Service is super efficient. Tables are reset minutes (second) after you leave. There was a jar of chalks on the terrace, I didn't catch who took care of it but it got picked up & store at its place on a shelf. Really, the place gives the vibe that the team is very tight & well directed. Many people with a dream open a restaurant, here it's obvious the managers are not dreamers but doers. This is the proverbial way of running a railroad.
pâte à pizza exceptionnelle, mais manque de fromage considérant le prix. Les croûtons de la salade de kale sont aussi exceptionnels, mais le prix est bien trop dispendieux pour de la salade avec peu d'ingrédients. Ce n'est pas un plat principal.Trop de vinaigrette sur la salade verde. Livre Elena en anglais. Pourquoi? Mousse au chocolat décevante. Arrière-goût que je ne peux décrire (beurre? trop salé?). Belle ambiance, mais très bruyant. Le son rebondit sur les murs, je crois, mais ce n'est pas leur faute. Bon service, ils sont gentils, l'embauche semble basée sur des valeurs inclusives, mais ce sont tous des millénariaux/gen Z). J'espère juste que c'est le fruit du hasard & qu'il n'y a pas d'âgisme.
Really cute ambiance, as much inside as outside. Big terrasse area! The Ragu pasta was DELICIOUS! The pizza was also tasty & fresh. I would definitely come back.

Food was good, however the utensils were dirty. After I waved down the waitress to replace the first dirty fork, you'd expect them to be more diligent handing us the next sets of utensils, however we found the second spoon to be also dirty. Would not come back
Great food, service & atmosphere. Was able to get a table right away without a reservation on a weekday night. I had a good time, but it is pricy though. Spent $70 for 2.5 meatballs, a bowl of pasta, & a glass of wine. I don't know if I could personally justify going back any time soon.
Delicious Pizza, great service & ambiance! We tried the M. Funguy,The rossa with Anchois, & a Marguerita pizza, along with a verde & kale cesar salad! (I would definetly recommend this kale cesar, soo delicious, & same for the M.Funguy, my favorite). The Pistachio Gelato was incredible, & likewise for the coffeee we took at the end.Excellent Service, & nice location!(Easy parking!)
I've been here a bunch of times & the food never disappoints! The kale caesar salad is overflowing out of the dish & overflowing with flavour! The pizzas are some of the best in the city, try the Dany & Diavolo
Food was very good. Everything was served on time & warm & tasted great. Desserts were tasty as well so worth a try if you still have room after your meal.
It's a hidden gem in the suburbs of Montreal!! Everything we got was amazing.. kale Cesar salad, pasta & pizza!! I wish I could have eaten more but I was already so full.. haha! Service was also perfect.. we did not feel like it was too fast, but had ample time to enjoy our meals without the waitress rushing us. We sat outside, its cute. Personally because I'm pregnant, I was hot. Next time will sit inside. I HIGHLY recommend this place. We enjoyed it so much we'd like to come back again tomorrow!!
Gorgeous food, gorgeous atmosphere, & friendly service! We've been here twice now for special occasions & the food never disappoints. The homemade pastas, in particular, are lovely. The terrasse that backs onto a quiet alley, adding to the special feeling of the experience.
Stumbled upon this spot, the place was packed & buzzing on a weekday so I had high expectations... the Cesar salad was great, tried a couple of pizzas: the quality is clearly excellent but the mix of toppings didn't make a lot of sense to me... wasn't a big fan of the flavours; I would suggest to stick to classics.
Everything was a 5 star. The only reason for a lower score of 3 stars for the atmosphere because we were a party of two & we got sat at a garden table & chairs & gravel on the ground which makes it an impossible set up. I would suggest to stop taking g reservations if you have to sit people on gravel. Everything else was amazing!!!
