Review Summary

Estelle is widely recognized for its upscale, lively atmosphere and beautifully designed space, making it a popular choice for date nights and celebrations. Many guests praise the Italian-Mediterranean menu, highlighting dishes like fresh pasta and tartare as delicious and well-prepared. While many patrons enjoy the professional service and energetic, music-filled environment, experiences can be inconsistent, with some reporting long wait times, noise levels that hinder conversation, or challenges with the valet parking policy. Opinions on pricing are divided, as some diners feel the high cost is justified by the quality and overall experience, while others perceive it as excessive relative to the portion sizes or service level. Despite occasional critiques regarding specific menu limitations or service attentiveness, the majority of visitors leave with a positive impression and a desire to return for the vibrant energy and quality food.

Food & ambience were excellent. Server was familiar enough with the menu to inform us appropriately due to dietary restrictions. No non dairy option for dessert. At a minimum sorbet should be available. Server could have checked in a bit more. & when we arrived we mentioned to the hostess we were celebrating our anniversary. A nice touch would have been for the hostess to inform our server so they could congratulate us or even offer a glass of bubbly. Parking was the main annoyance to the evening. Parking lot was empty on arrival. I parked my own car & retrieved my own car. But still paid $10 for'valet' parking. If the lot has parking available it should be free. Charge valet fee when the valet is required to park your car because the lot is full. Overall a good experience with the exception of the dessert options & parking.

Good food, good wine & ok service. Parking is exclusively valet…. Ridiculous. Extremely expensive for the quality. Many great restaurants in the area with a better price/quality.

Un restaurant absolument charmant qui mérite amplement le détour.
La nourriture est savoureuse, parfaitement exécutée & met en valeur la qualité des ingrédients. Chaque bouchée était un vrai régal.

L'ambiance est tout simplement idéale : chaleureuse, vivante & portée par une musique qui contribue à créer une atmosphère 5/5. J'ai eu la chance de profiter de la terrasse chauffée, ce qui a rendu l'expérience encore plus agréable & conviviale.

Petit plus non négligeable : le service de valet parking à seulement 10 $, une rareté & un atout précieux à Montréal.

Amazing Italian eatery located in the heart of St-Henri. Estelle always offers a fine dining experience & is hands down Montreals best Italian restaurant serving up great food & good vibes! Delicious & stunning dishes (& cocktails) at reasonable prices (you pay for quality)! Ambiance is on point & the service was exceptional (thanks to Joey).
Valet Parking only 10$ which is great considering street parking is around 5$ an hour.
A must try if you haven't already.

I have been to Estelle a number of times already & every single time is a truly stellar experience. Worried about parking? They have valet service. The restaurant is stunning with a posh chic vibe. Food & service is always top notch. Special thanks to Dimitri who is truly outstanding & accommodating.

Very nice food & service. Nice terrace but the view is of a parking lot. The music is so loud that inside, it is impossible to have a conversation.

if the food were spectacular the $$$ could be justified, unfortunately its not. overabundance of staff felt intrusive from the weird paid valet parking to the guy in the bathroom offering towels, gum. felt like they were trying too hard to justify th exorbitant cost of the meal

Very impressive restaurant. Lot of people with more means (just check the parking lot), but food is very well done & place is stylish.

Food was tasty, especially loved the desserts & vibes were fun & lively. Very expensive for similar dishes you can find at most upscale Italian restaurants in the city, minimum 20$ per glass of wine, but my biggest qualm was with the parking. They charge 10$ for mandatory "valet" parking, but the lot is attached to the restaurant. Essentially paying for them to park your car 2 feet from the front door for you. Completely unnecessary.
