It has been many years that the likable Elio and his wife Nina from the province of Avellino close to Naples have opened the doors of Restaurant Elio Pizzeria. We must say that this restaurant is not just a simple pizzeria, Elio and family offer to their North American customers typical Neapolitans Home Style dishes. During all these years, Restaurant Elio has served numerous and faithful customers. When the restaurant first opened in 1964, it had the ability to serve only 18 diners. Today, Elio and family are proud of being able to accommodate more than 700 individuals due to their two reception halls (Buffet Anna Maria). With a gentle smile, Elio and Family wish you a great home style food experience, one you won't surely forget.
Elio Pizzeria is known for authentic Italian fare with pizza and pasta that many reviewers rate as the best in town, featuring fresh sauces, a chewy crust, and generous portions at good value. The warm, family friendly atmosphere and attentive service make guests feel at home, with hospitality praised across visits. The experience extends beyond dining in, with options to take home fresh pasta and sauces, plus outdoor seating and space for gatherings, reflecting its long standing place in Montreal's Italian scene. Overall, the restaurant delivers reliable quality and a welcoming vibe that keeps guests returning.
This is so far the best pizza I've ever have in Montreal, the tomato sauce is something I've never tried before, spectacular. The owner is so friendly & kind, the staff are also so friendly. I loved getting to know this amazing place, I will definitely come back!
My husband & I went for dinner & ordered pasta along with half a bottle of
wine. Everything was delicious! We definitely need to come back to try the pizzas - I noticed everyone around us was having one.

I took my girlfriend to Elio Pizzeria for Valentine's Day, & it was truly a hidden gem in Little Italy. The service was amazing from start to finish - friendly, attentive, & professional. At the end of our meal, the owner personally came to talk with us & even offered us a free drink & dessert, which made the evening extra special.
The food was absolutely delicious, the prices were very reasonable, & the atmosphere was warm & welcoming. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone. Next time, I'll be bringing my mother here to celebrate her birthda
Ce restaurant vaut vraiment le détour ! La pizza est tout simplement excellente, le service impeccable & le personnel d'un dévouement remarquable. Même la sauce pour pâtes à emporter est savoureuse & pleine de goût. Alors, venez chez Elio pizzeria , vous ne serez pas déçus !
This restaurant is truly worth the trip! The pizza is absolutely excellent, the service impeccable, & the staff wonderfully dedicated. Even the pasta sauce to take home is full of flavor. So come to Elio Pizzaria - you won't be disappointed!
Had pizza here with my husband! I made a mistake with my pizza order ordering one pizza while thinking I was ordering another one, when I was asking if it was the one I ordered the chef came & insisted to give me the one I wanted free of charge! So as you can see the service is really good! The place is very cozy & the music wasn't too loud which is so rare this days. Attached a picture of my pizza, tasted amazing!! Five stars.

Ristorante italiano a Montreal, io ci sono stato con parenti e consiglio a tutti gli italiani di passaggio a montreal di mangiare in questo ristorante. Cucina italianissima e pizza buonissima. Personale gentilissimo, attento e veloce. Lo consiglio vivamente.
Dîner avec amis. Pizza excellentes
Service TERRIBLE fait par un homme dans la cinquantaine. Pas aimable, j'ai eu l'impression de me faire servir par pitié ou obligation. J'avais commandé la table d'hôte si je n'avais pas demandé le dessert qui était inclus, il ne me l'aurait pas offert.
It's a great place to socialize with friends. Had a great time on the patio enjoying our pizzas & pasta....& sangria. Would go there again in a heartbeat
La bouffe authentique italienne qui goute toujours aussi bon qu'il y a 40 ans. Pizzas, pâtes, salades, calmars...tout est fantastique.
Le serveur limite bête mais efficace.
Un point négatif : les machines de paiement ont le pourboire 18% -20%-25% d'affiché.
Always a great experience. Been going for years it had been a few years since we've been, still as great as I remember. Great service & portions.
Thank you & keep up the great work the team puts in everyday!
Honesty... I took the days special
Veal Parm & it was kinda gross...
Usually it's good when I take pasta or pizza...
Service is super good & friendly though
La machine n'est toujours pas légale (18, 20 ou 22% de tip sur le montant après taxes) & la serveuse (déjà pas super aimable) n'a pas apprécié. Elle n'a rien dit & a haussé les épaules.
