Reviews show Pizzéria Elena delivering light, ultra thin crust pizzas with high quality ingredients and a strong New York style vibe that many consider among Montreal's best; the menu includes a range of flavorful slices such as mushroom, spinach, pepperoni and calabrese, with a focus on balanced sauces and creamy goat cheese toppings, and guests frequently praise the friendly, attentive staff and the cozy yet artsy atmosphere; however seating is limited and many orders are to go, and a few critics note that prices can feel high for the size, with some mentions of pizza oiliness unless oil is requested to be omitted at the time of ordering.
Currently sitting in my car after mowing through quite possibly the best pizza slices I've ever shoved into my mouth. Great staff but the pizza…good lord!
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
Delicious thin-crust pizzas! The mushroom pizza is spicy & packed with flavor, topped with creamy goat cheese, while the spinach pizza is unique & tasty with a hint of honey that adds a perfect touch of sweetness. Highly recommend for anyone looking for something flavorful & different!

The absolute best, best, best team! Elena is right around the corner from my street, & unfortunately for my wallet, they serve one of my favorite slices & Caesar salads in town. Not only is the food amazing, but the staff is absolutely brilliant. The sweetest people out there ☀?
