Really lively restaurant. The food was top notch wow. I am most certainly going to crave that salad again. Even though I am full to the max I still took my leftovers as it makes me sad to part with such deliciousness.

Everything - top to bottom was approachable, the menu was beautifully simple while allowing us to really get something each of us wanted. The servers were lovely, and the central bar design is unique! I loved the food so so much. Somehow my favourite thing we ate was the cauliflower. Cocktails were also great! What can be said other than we are in debt to those who recommended us.
Yesterday, during dinner, my partner proposed to me (of course, I said yes!). The staff at Elena went out of their way to help my nervous partner make the moment really special.
The food was spectacular - fresh, creative and delicious. The rigatoni with morels is to die for!
The service was 10/10. We were greated with warmth and guided through the menu at every step. Our server had a lovely, relaxed and efficient vibe. Thank you to everyone who helped make the night so special! Xox

Brilliant all round. Excellent food and service. Our server, Kalila, was the best server we have ever had - very attentive and fun! Toilets are very dark though so take your phone for light.
TLDR: food poisoning, very loud environment, CHARGES MONEY FOR TASTING WINE!!!! (A sip of wine to taste and choose!!!)
This is one of my most confused experiences ever. I genuinely do not know how I feel about this restaurant as I am writing about it right now.
The food was delicious and the service was great. Very beautiful cutesy restaurant and nice atmosphere too. An absolute sweet girl treated us very well. I enjoyed the food so much, only to go home and throw up at 4 am in the morning. It was definitely the food, no stomach bug or anything else. So that’s weird. Like I really wish I didn’t get food poisoning, cuz it really was delicious?
Here is where it starts going down south: the music was WAY too loud, and because of that the waitresses also had to scream to the costumers for them to hear which added up to the noise (I don’t mean scream in a bad manner but in terms of decibels). I asked the very nice girl who was serving us to do something about it, and she apologized and said it wasn’t possible. No blame on the girl tho she was an angel.
But here’s the punch line: we didn’t know what wine we wanted to order and we were discussing that with our waitress. So she suggested “do you wanna taste the wine before ordering it?” And it seemed like a very reasonable thing to do so we did so. About a sip of wine only, so we can taste. and we were 2 people, we tried 2 different wines and ended up ordering 2 glasses of one of them we chose. And I’m emphasizing: very very small sip of wine just to taste. Not even 1/3 or 1/4 of a glass. And guess what? We got charged for each time we tried, 5$. 20$ extra on our bill. Now hear me out i genuinely do not have a problem spending 20$ and i am not stingy. But that is just petty money. like what???? No one and i mean ABSOLUTELY no one told us we would get charged. and even if we were to be told, charging someone for a “sip” of wine is CRAZY. PETTY ON ANOTHER LEVEL.
So here’s a summary: the food was great and the service was great but next time try being classier and don’t charge petty money on people. If you really need that extra 20$ on each of your bills just raise the price just don’t be petty. Or if you absolutely think you shouldn’t lose money on that extra sip of wine, inform me before charging me! Also way too loud and noisy. I also ended up getting food poisoning. Very disappointed and I mean VERY.

Everything was amazing. I love that their pizza is made on sourdough. The kale Ceaser was to due for and ragu pasta was delicious. They have some amazing seasonal wine too. The service was also top notch. Interacted with 3 staff members and they all left a positive impression. Recommend!!!

We tried their Margherita pizza and the daily special pizza with stracciatella and cherry tomatoes. We loved the latter, but the Margherita was somewhat disappointing—we expected much more given the restaurant’s reputation and the price. We’d definitely go again, but we wouldn’t order the Margherita.

This place is a must when in Montreal. The staff is great and the food is amazing. Had a pizza (of course) along with a salad and the meatballs. You have to have the meatballs *chefs kiss.
