The pizza dough is fresh, chewy & supple. We had four cheese & chicken pizza as our main course. Impeccable taste & one of the best pizzas in Montreal. Definitely a hidden gem.

What a delicious four-cheese pizza with white sauce-rich, creamy, & absolutely unforgettable. Easily one of the top pizzas in Montreal, & a must-try for anyone who loves great food.

The restaurant itself is warm & cozy, making it the perfect spot to relax & enjoy your meal. The staff are incredibly kind, welcoming, & bring such a positive, vibrant energy to the experience.

Definitely a place you'll want to come back to again & again!

Really nice ambiance. Pizza was excellent. I had the funghi & the flavours were deep & crust airy crispy light. The homemade chili crisps go super well with the cheese & tomato. Friendly owner clearly passionate about the food. Classy quiet decor too

Visiting from PEI. Was told by our hotel staff that this was the best pizza in town. They weren't lying!

Had to order take out as we had fussy kids with us. But we ordered the pepperoni & the 4 cheese pizza. Both were ready to pick up in 15 minutes. Very fresh tasting & full of flavour.

Happy to recommend!

It was our first time coming here. We ordered the pepperoni pizza, chicken pizza & 4 cheese pizza. They were all delicious. I typically don't order 4 cheese pizza but it tasted phenomenal!

I went to Elforne for lunch with a group of 10. We called in advance to let them know we were coming. When we arrived, the restaurant was empty - & unfortunately, we quickly understood why.

We waited about an hour for our pizzas. When they finally arrived, the crust was burnt while the middle was still raw. The ingredients did not taste fresh, & the cheese felt industrial & low quality. For $30 per pizza in downtown Montreal, this is completely unacceptable - especially in such a competitive market.

What made it worse was the service. Only one person was working in the restaurant. He never once came to check on us or ask if the food was okay. There was no follow-up, no acknowledgment of the long wait, nothing.

I genuinely wanted this place to be good. The concept has potential. But based on this experience, I cannot recommend it. With this level of execution & attention to detail, it's hard to see how it can compete long term.

Very disappointing.

A very welcoming restaurant with delicious pizza. The Margherita is topped with plenty of fresh basil, flavorful mozzarella, & a rich tomato sauce. The pepperoni pizza is generously loaded with slices, melty cheese, & a tasty sauce. The dough is light & perfectly cooked. The atmosphere is casual & relaxed, with a friendly chef & attentive waitress. A great spot for a quick & satisfying meal.
