Great dine-out Volpe menu of 2026. Restaurant was very busy even on a Monday but service was very good and food was satisfying. Fennel salad was refreshing, Beef Tenderloin Spiedini was tender and the sauce was yummy! Pepperoni pizza smokily delicious with thin crispy crust, the Duck legs dish was also delicious. Citrus semolina cake nice and fluffy but a tad too sweet for our taste. Nom-nom😋
Super cute place, with delicious food and drinks! The atmosphere was great and was constantly busy throughout the night. Totally worth having a reservation. Only downside was that our waitress wasn't the most pleasant. It looked like she was having an off day with minimal expressions or checking in on us. But overall, still a great place! Would recommend their semolina house rolls & calabraselli alla vodka
I visited this place after hearing very positive recommendations from someone I know, so I had fairly high expectations. I’ll be honest about my experience. The dishes we ordered were quite heavy on sauces, to the point where one felt overwhelmingly salty while another leaned strongly toward sour. The pasta portion was smaller than expected, and the pizza was fairly basic. The ambiance was pleasant overall, though it was a bit too dim for my personal preference. Service was polite, but the food took longer to arrive than expected, and the pace felt slower than it could have been. I wouldn’t say this is a bad place by any means, but for me, it didn’t quite live up to the hype. It feels like more of a one-time visit rather than somewhere I’d return to regularly.
Celebrated my friend’s birthday and the holidays last night, it was both our first time at Elio and they knocked it out of the park! Only bar seating was left for reservations but it was pretty spacious and comfortable. The house rolls and thin crust pizza were amazing! Loved the sole mio dessert as well. Restaurant ambiance was cozy and inviting, would definitely visit again. A special shout out to all the staff and our server Maya who were so attentive and welcoming throughout the dining experience!
It was my first time trying this restaurant for brunch. Megan was in charge of my table and her service was fantastic. She ensured my guests and my glasses were filled at all times, and provided promptly everything we wanted. The food was fabulous, and we have nothing to complain. The atmosphere was comfortable and cozy. We were seated by the right side of the entrance by the bar(?). We like the high privacy of the area. Something to work on would be the payment system. If you pay by card, whatever amount of tips you pay is calculated after tax is added. For instance, I chose to pay 18% tips, but ended up paying 23.5% tips. I guess a workaround would be to pay by cash. I will return to try the other dishes.
