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.
Heard lots of good things about this place from many different people. Food was good, but the service wasn't up to standard. Ordered 2 apps, a salad, a pasta & a pizza to be shared between 2 people. The apps came normally but the pasta then came super late, 10 minutes later the salad came, & by the time we were full from eating everything after waiting for so long, the pizza then came. No word from the servers.

We were a group if 6 & ordered a variety of pasta, pizza & appetizers. Everything was great! We loved the service. One of us broke the water glass on the table & they responded instantaneously. They also replaced all the food on the table without any extra charge. Loved the service overall.
I love Elena - both the indoor & outdoor experiences are great, friendly, yummy. But the music is *so loud* we usually have to leave or cancel our reservation & take it to go. Why does music need to be blasting at 80dB at 5:30pm? It's so unnecessary. Otherwise, charming & lovely place.
They make excellent Neapolitan pizza. Hard to find one as good as this in Montreal. The ambiance is perfect, very classy place. Good pizza selection. Service was great, waiters very attentive.
Pizzas were excellent. Apps were good. Pasta was good except for that red wine & butter concoction. Prompt service. Great staff. Ugly looking place. Looks like a big room in a house but the food is what counts.
The staff was rude & said ! we booked a table for 6:30pm arrived 10 min later & she told us the table is booked at 7:30 pm & we have to give up a table by then! what do you mean you got rush us during our meal lol! that was rude & unacceptable! cool place un organized staff! bartenders are great tho

The Diavolo 2.0 pizza was incredible! Spicy, flavorful, & perfectly balanced. We enjoyed it on the backyard patio, which gave the whole experience a cozy, picnic-like vibe.
Elena is incredible! We had no reseveration & it was quite busy but they explained that they have a takeout section & picnic tables in the back so that's what we did. We got the Kevin McAllister & the Fun Guy pizzas, as well as the kale cesar salad & some wine. Everything was incredible! I would highly recommend the Fun Guy pizza it was delicious. Really loved the outdoor picnic area, a great idea for a busy area. Will for sure go back!
Un incontournable à Montréal & les bons avis parlent d'eux-même ✨
Cela dit, notre serveuse aurait pu être plus attentionnée ; nous avons dû insister pour avoir nos boissons, même après avoir terminé notre entrée, demander à deux reprises pour payer nos additions & si je n'avais pas demandé pour mon restant de pizza pour emporter, je ne pense pas qu'elle me l'aurait apporté.
Bref, je suis contente d'avoir visité le Elena, mais je n'y retournerai pas.
We travel often & the food was some of the best Italian we have had! We have a mix of appetizers, pasta & pizza & it was all delicious. The restaurant is a bit loud but we were there at a peak time so it was very full. Staff was great with wine recommendations as well. Would go again!
Keal's Caesar salad is unbeatable, fresh vegetables, crispy croutons & delicious dressing, covered in Parmesan cheese... delicious.
Pizzas are very good with natural & fresh ingredients.
My friend & I are seated at the bar. We didn't know what wine to get but the waitress was very helpful. Service is top-notch! Love the ambience & food is great.
