Estelle est décrite comme une adresse chic et accueillante avec une cuisine italienne moderne et de grande qualité, une ambiance élégante qui peut devenir festive et conviviale le soir, et un service majoritairement attentif et compétent. Les avis saluent des plats savoureux et bien exécutés, des pâtes fraîches et des poissons ou viandes bien travaillés, ainsi qu’une carte des vins intéressante et une atmosphère qui transmet une impression de sophistication. Cependant, le prix est souvent jugé élevé par rapport à ce qui est proposé, et le rapport qualité-prix n’est pas unanime; le niveau sonore peut être fort et rendre la conversation difficile, et quelques expériences de service ou d’attentes ont été décrites comme inégales. Le parking valet est mentionné comme pratique mais parfois source de frustration, et certaines critiques regrettent l’absence de desserts sans lactose ou d’options plus variées. Malgré ces points, l’impression générale reste positive, avec des soirées réussies pour des anniversaires ou des dîners en amoureux et une forte recommandation de revenir pour l’expérience globale.
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!
It was my first time at Estelle today, i was so satisfied with my visit. Beautiful venue, amazing service & exceptional food. I had the burrata as an entree it was dresh & the ingredients were very good together a little sweet & salty moment. As for the lobster cappellacci & it was to die for!!!! Would definitely recommend & Id go back in a heart beat.
Unfortunately, I would NOT recommend this restaurant. Of the four of us who recently had cocktails & dinner here - three of us were sick with gastro-intestinal issues the next day. I emailed the restarant to express my concerns & inquire about whether others were sick. They couldn't even be bothered to respond. Zero stars on the food borne illness. Having eaten at a number of other fine dining restaurants of similar calibre, the food here was not the main event. It was lack lustre in comparison to my other experiences. The bus boy was the star with impeccable service provision. The menu on Estelle's website was outdated & they did not provide a cocktail list. We will never go back to eat here.
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.
Un de mes restaurants coup de coeur à Montréal! Superbe service reçu par Jessica, comme à l'habitude! Je la recommande fortement afin d'obtenir un service soigné & efficace. Notre prochaine visite ne tardera pas. ☺?🙏🏼
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!
had a group work event. Food was great. Good service. But boy was it ever noisy. People had to talk/scream to hear each other over the blaring loud music. It's a restaurant! not a night club. Simply because of this I won't return nor recommend.
Absolutely incredible! This was recommended to us, we were celebrating our anniversary. The staff were so attentive especially the manager! The food was exceptional & having valet parking was perfect!
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.
Service extraordinaire! Nous y avons célébré notre mariage & c'était le lieu parfait. L'ambiance, le décor, l'atmosphère, le service, la bienveillance du staff, les bouchées, le repas... Tout était 10/10. Je recommande chaleureusement! J'y retournerai assurément.
