Decent pizza, well cooked - only the edges were a bit burnt. The dough was the best part, the topping for me were so so. Yes they were tasty, but overall not quite Italian. We had the Diavolo, the funghi e taleggio & the marinara con stracciatella & anchovies. Chill environment, attentive service.
Got together with some friends for a meal & one friends had reserved. We were warmly greeted upon entering & were seated at Justin & Anthony's table. They were both excellent. Service was fun, efficient & friendly with excellent recommendations. We started with the Kale Caesar which was good. Then we shared the Amatriciana pizza which I was super surprised to see an actual wood fired oven. Pizza dough was excellent with good hydration & good flavours. Then we shared the Mafalda al ragu which was delicious. What I didn't like was the lack of English menus & the lackluster reason why there weren't any, wasn't a fan of the kale Caesar, place was quite loud & finally, the little sign outside wasn't big enough to see when driving or even walking by. All in all, an excellent place & definitely recommended.
Love Elena! Food's always great! Kind & thoughtful staff :)
By far one of my favourites in Montreal.
Amazing staff. Super knowledgeable about wine & food. Consistently good pizza. Great vibes for date night.
than you elena for amazing salads & pizza. & a congratulatory bday cake! had a great night!!!
This is our second time coming to Elena. We visited back in August for our anniversary. I requested Elena for my birthday dinner, my husband made a reservation & put dinning room in the comments section.
We arrived & was told they only had the bar, or one table available only for an hour. We decided to stay, & would just eat fast.
Ordered a salad, & two pizzas.
When our pizza arrived one was completely cold, & the other was room temp/ warm.
Not the hot fresh out the oven I was expecting.
I usually don't care for pizza, but had such a great time in August, that I asked to come back to celebrate my special day.
Not sure what happened tonight, but I'm extremely disappointed.
Faîtes attention, le pourboire est calculé après les taxes. C'est toujours un peu désolant comme surprise après un bon moment.
Has a great experience dining at Elena for the first time. We ordered a peach & stracciatella appetizer, the red wine pasta, & the Dany pizza & everything was incredible. Wine & service were excellent too
Elena is hands down the best restaurant in Montréal. When I moved back from Italy, I was craving real Italian food & nothing compared… until I found this place. It's the ONLY spot in the city that tastes truly authentic, just like in Italy.
Every dish is consistently delicious, the prices are super reasonable, & the staff are always so sweet & attentive. The décor feels chill & low-key, & if you pay attention you realize how beautiful it actually is. In the summer, the terrace & the park behind the restaurant make it even more special. So cozy! Even the music is always cool too.
Make sure to try the:
Suppli, bread with olive oil, meatballs, mafalda al ragu, agnolotti if you get the chance, margherita pizza & kale salad.
I've been coming here for 6 years straight & it never disappoints. Always my #1 pick in Montréal! Best restaurant ever.
Some of the best pasta we've had recently & we just came back from Italy!
Beautiful place & vary tasty Italian dishes. Operations are good. Totally recommended for special occasions. Beautiful terrace.
Lovely place, great food! We tried 3 different pizzas & pasta with chanterelles, all absolutely delicious 😋 One thing that can be improved: food menu is written in such tiny font, that older people in our group had hard time reading it, please make it bigger.
Will be back for sure.
