Estelle propose une exploration rigoureuse des traditions culinaires italiennes en misant sur une approche axée sur la fraîcheur des produits du marché. Le menu privilégie les ingrédients saisonniers et les bases de qualité, transformant des éléments simples en préparations pensées pour souligner la clarté des saveurs. La clientèle découvre une cuisine d’inspiration méditerranéenne où l’intégrité de chaque produit brut demeure la priorité absolue. L’équipe en cuisine exploite l’agriculture régionale afin de concevoir des sélections rotatives reflétant les cycles de récolte naturels de l’environnement immédiat. Chaque plat témoigne d’un équilibre entre contraste textural et densité nutritionnelle, assurant ainsi une identité cohérente à travers tout le service. Cet établissement conserve une esthétique fonctionnelle qui maintient l’attention portée sur l’assiette, illustrant parfaitement la relation entre l’approvisionnement local et l’exécution technique maîtrisée.
Estelle est largement considérée comme une destination incontournable à Montréal, offrant une atmosphère élégante, chic et dynamique que de nombreux clients jugent parfaite pour les soirées en amoureux ou les célébrations. Les convives font régulièrement l'éloge de la cuisine d'inspiration italienne, soulignant la qualité de plats comme le tartare de saumon, les pâtes fraîches et les viandes, tout en mettant en avant l'énergie festive qui s'intensifie en soirée avec une musique plus rythmée. Bien que le service soit souvent décrit comme professionnel, attentionné et accueillant, les expériences peuvent varier, certains visiteurs signalant des manques de suivi, des problèmes de placement ou un niveau sonore élevé. Le restaurant est perçu comme une expérience haut de gamme, bien que les avis sur le rapport qualité-prix divergent, notamment en ce qui concerne la tarification, la logistique du service de voiturier et les options limitées pour les desserts. Malgré quelques retours mitigés sur la constance, de nombreux clients considèrent l'établissement comme une adresse essentielle et expriment une réelle volonté d'y revenir pour son esthétique et sa qualité culinaire.
Had a perfect experience here. The vibe is warm & elegant, the food is absolutely delicious, & the service is impeccable. While it's on the pricier side, you truly get what you pay for excellence in every detail. Highly recommend for a special night out. Will definitely be back!
We went to Estelle Saturday night & from start to finish we had an amazing experience. From the service, to the atmosphere, to the food, everything was a 10/10. Our server Ricky was absolutely amazing! He was so kind & friendly & had a great sense of humour! Highly recommend!!
Came to Estelle for great birthday party for our friends. We had a sharing menu, which was superb. The starters Insalata di Rucola E Radicchio, Insalata Di Cicoria Belga, Salmone alla milanese, & Tartare di Salmone were all amazing. I did not eat the pasta & gnocchi dishes (as i don't eat pasta), but everyone seems to enjoy those dishes. Bistecca Cowboy (i guess this is a version of tomahawk steak) was one of the best steaks i have had in 5 years, & i have steak weekly. Branzino & Rapini Piccanti were perfectly prepared also. For dessert, I really enjoyed Apple crumble cheesecake & Chocolate hazelnut semifreddo. The overall vibe reminded us the glory days of partying on Saint Laurent in late 90s & early 2000s .
Got to meet Karl & had a nice chat leaving the restaurant. Highly recommend & will be back again soon.
Coincidentally, this week the first edition of Michelin guide was released for Montréal & I am surprised that Estelle is not on their list, this place totally deserves to be included.

I recently dined at Estelle, & it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, the service was top-notch - attentive, friendly, & incredibly knowledgeable. The food was absolutely fantastic, & the atmosphere was just perfect, creating a truly special dining experience.
I particularly loved the Tagliatelle Tartufo, which was rich & flavorful, & the lamb chops were cooked to perfection - tender & bursting with taste. Every moment was enjoyable, & I'll definitely be returning. Highly recommend Estelle for an exceptional night out!
We celebrated my birthday this past Monday & our experience (like many other visits to Estelle) exceeded our expectations. Attention to detail from front of house & kitchen staff is unmatched- they are GREAT! The hospitality shown by Joey, David & the whole staff makes your dining experience so pleasant & special. Highly recommended- their atmosphere is so inviting & chic! Can't wait for my next visit!
This place is amazing. Their outdoor terrace makes you feel like You are on vacation. I love that they also have round tables so all guests can see each other. They have valet - 10$ It's a bit on the pricier side - ex: pasta plates are 32$ & up. Cocktails are about 20$- check the menu online. The food is phenomenal! The tuna tataki is delish, the mushroom pasta is to die for, the tuna tartare is amazing. The buratta is just MMMMM & enough to share. There is not 1 dish that was not excellent & everything was shareable - good portions. The desserts were also very good. It spacious & there is a dj on Friday & Saturday I believe. I was there on a Saturday. This is a great place for a date night or even for groups. Highly recommend.
My wife & I had the opportunity to get married at Estelle on September 14. Throughout the process of organizing the day, over the last year, the entire team at Estelle from the owners to the sommelier have been exceptionally helpful & welcoming. They put our dream wedding to reality. We had many compliments from guests that it was the best food they ever had at a wedding & that the wine was exceptionally good. The service was impeccable. Food was hot, glasses were always full & there was no wait time at the bar. Cocktails were beautiful & staff was friendly until the very last person left the restaurant My wife & I highly recommend Estelle as a wedding venue. It is in an intimidate setting that can accommodate roughly 125 people.
