Review Summary

Pizzéria Elena comes up in many reviews as a standout in Montreal, with many calling it the best pizza in town and praising elevated New York style slices, a light crispy crust, and top notch toppings like mushroom with goat cheese or spinach with a touch of honey. Diners describe a casual yet stylish vibe with friendly, attentive staff and a welcoming feel, especially in Griffintown where the place has become a neighborhood favorite, though seating is limited and takeaway is common; some note a similar appeal at the St Henri location. A few reviews caution about oil or honey finishes on certain slices and advise asking for no oil at the time of order, while others feel the price is high for the portion and size, arguing that the craft and rent in the area justify the cost. The pizza is frequently described as flavorful, artisanal, and satisfying, with a crust that stays crisp and toppings that are clearly carefully prepared, and desserts like ice cream often highlighted as a nice finish. Overall the place is repeatedly recommended for those seeking a serious, well executed slice in Montreal.

Update 22 Feb. 2025

I came back & asked while placing the order that they do not add oil. The pizza was very delicious with great ingredients. Make sure you request no oil at the moment of the order. It might be too late after that.

Oil with pizza flavour

First time I walk in a pizzeria, order a pizza & I am not able to eat it

The pizzas are full of oil or sauce & they don't tell you beforehand they cover them into oil

I had to give away the one I ordered because they dip it into oil & I didn't know it. It feels weird to see your friends eating & you stand there waiting

I suggest people who dislike pizza with oil (or honey depending on your choice) to inform the cashier you do not want to have your pizza dipped into oil

'Dipped' might be excessive but the quantity of oil they put is just insane & very uncommon in any pizzeria I have vsisited anywhere in the world
