One of my favourite restaurant in Laval. They have everything right here ! The menu is great, they serve all kind of food. Their lunch menu is great to! Expect somewhat of a line to get in on weekends and thursday night. The food quality is great, portions are big and breakfast are great to! Only downer is that it's a very LOUD place, we could hardly hear each other at a table of 4. Worth trying! read more

Great place for lunch or dinner. Breakfast or brunch only Saturdays and Sundays 11am-2pm Really liked selection on their menu read more

Elixor - Picture if restaurant - Italian Near Me - Laval, Quebec

Think of Restaurant Elixor as Cheesecake Factory-Canada. Similar decor and menu, though not as large a variety of cheesecake. Had the "Palais the Poulet Croustillant" (Crispy Chicken Pallazo) which is served on basil pasta with prosciutto, arugula, shaved parmesan and toasted pine nuts. Very good and somewhere I'd return to. read more

We did a quick lunch here and it was super-busy. I can tell you that all of the salads are HUGE - at least three people would be full from one of them. The salmon salad was very good. The Pad Thai was tasty but didn't really rock our world - there is better. Everything was fresh and the place is clean. The noise level was high, but it did not slow down the efficient service. On the other tables I did spy a few handsome burgers that were being devoured - just not my choice for a lunch food. They serve brunch, at least on the weekends, from what I gathered. read more

I just picked up my takeout order since you can't eat in anymore and let me tell you it did not disappoint! The salad potions are generous and I couldn't wait to get home and the soup I got! Tomato and basil it was delicious I devoured it in under 5 minutes!! Thank you for the food and the fast service! read more

We took my sister out for her birthday to this restaurant while visiting Montreal. My uncle and aunt really hyped this place up (being the locals) and I have to say it didn't disappoint. There's a lot of good vibes in here, the crowd seemed to be a bit the up scale side and prices seemed very fair for the type of restaurant. I got the St. Louis B.B.Q. Burger and I have to say it was one fine damn burger. Burgers are on the very top of the hard to please me list and they did a very amazing job. The burger had a nice touch of bacon, Swiss cheese, some chippy onions and along the bbq chicken, overall the combination was absolutely amazing. Along with very friendly service, making the night that much better! Props to them. read more

It can be a little too loud sometimes especially on Saturday nights and be prepared to wait if you don't have a reservation. I recommend the Maui Salad, so delicious and filling, and has been on the menu for over 10 years. If you're a bigger group try the VIP entree, you won't regret it. read more

To begin, my girlfriend and I went to Elixor for our anniversary after hearing good things about it. When we arrived, there was a 25 minute wait, which actually passed much faster than that. The hostess was very polite and even though it was rushing, showed genuine care towards the customers. When we were finally seated, we were greeted by an enthusiastic female waiter who let us know everything we needed to. Since we had already looked at the menu on line, we were both ready to order right away. I had ordered the bronzed salmon while my girlfriend had the spaghetti, as an entrée we took the cheese and spinach dip. The dip arrived very quickly, and was fantastic. The only problem was the fact that the "pita bread" that came with it was as hard as a rock. The table next to us would stare at us every time they heard us chew down. Nevertheless, the dip made up for it, but I wouldn't order it again. The salmon was alright, nothing special. The flavours were lacklustre and the sauce used on the plate wasn't the greatest. The asparagus was overcooked and the garlic potatoes tasted extremely plain. As for the spaghetti, it came with a mere 2 shrimp and was loaded with mushrooms. The spaghetti is also very thin, which coming from an italian background, we weren't used to. There was also barely any sauce, but we still made the best of it. To sum it up, this place has great service but the food could be better. It might have just been our dishes, but it wasn't very enjoyable. The salads on the other table looked good though! Overall, it was an alright experience. read more

Best restaurant ever! I love the food there~ I order some salad today. The serve is hug~ however I ate it up since it was so yum! I'm so glad to find this one. read more

See all

One of my favourite restos!!! Loove their salads: cobb, indochina and maui salads :) i also love their franks bbq sandwich. I havent had much else on their menus so I cant vouch for them, but from what I have had, i've enjoyed. Always good service. Nice and clean resto also. read more

Pathetic excuse for a make shift Cheesecake Factory. Food is sub-par at best. Hostesses don't seem to like their jobs. Waiters are hit or miss, you'll get one that's amazing or you'll get one that's a asshole with a chip on his shoulder read more

Normally not my kind of place. But they make everything you can dream of and it's usually pretty good. I'm not a fan of the decor. It feels like a high school gym with some embelishments. But the bathrooms were spotless and that's always important to me. read more

This is the first time I've been there for brunch and I was told that they had great breakfasts... but I was disappointed to be honest with you. They have a huge menu but a super tiny section for brunch. I ended up having egs with sausage so it's really hard to botch that plate. I would go back just to try another plate like that breakfast burrito but sounded odd on the menu but when on the plate, looked delicious! read more

The food was ok at the most and the service was horrible. The worst of all is that they gave us a dirty table and they didn't even bother to wash it when we informed them about the problem... read more

Excellent service, delicious food, right portions. Deserve 5 star

There can sometimes be quite a lineup for the table but the food is pretty good. The pad thai was only so so but I must say I am a fan of the Frank's BBQ sandwich. Their fries are nicely seasoned. The desserts are usually good if you have room as the portions here are on the big side. read more

Went at 5pm on a Sunday. It was packed with kids!!! Food was good, plate size is huge, noise... Well, yeah, a lot of it... Do not go there if you're looking for French cuisine, it actually a fusion restaurant with Italian and American influences. read more

Came here with a large group of people from work. Huge selection of food so there is something for everyone. Service was good and fast. Good place to come with a large group of people. The place was busy. read more

Very nice place , very big, usually good service but this time around i had a waitress that wasn't very good at her job. Very slow, forgetful and never came to check on us. They also had run out of most things on the appetizer menu witch was a little bit annoying. I brought a cake for mothers day and its took forever for them to bring it out when i had said to do so in 10 minutes. Food was good. Portions are huge. Their deserts are good but very rich. All in all this is a good place but service could be improved read more

In Montreal there is no cheesecake factory. We have Elixor and to be honest I don't think it is as good as cheesecake factory. The location isn't bad and it is a very big place so finding a table won't be a problem. The service is horrible though. The waiters are not a problem however since this place is so huge the food takes forever to arrive. In terms of how it tastes it's nothing special. Overall if you are visiting the city and you need a place to eat, I would check this place out. read more

As someone said before, if you cannot agree on where to go, this is the place as they have so many choices. Our bill usually comes under $90 with tip for three mains, two adults and one toddler, two drinks, two coffees and one dessert. My favorite is the burrito. My husband digs their burger and my 3 year loves the pasta Alfredo. For drinks, try their Daiquiri. It is a bit too sweet for me but my husband likes the strawberry flavour. And all of us love their chocolate cake. We get only one to share between 3 of us. It is a very good place to eat with children. They have lot of high chairs and the restaurant is spacious, so people will not be bumping in the high chair all the time. They also have coloring paper and crayons for children. If you are not provided with one straight away, ask for it. Keeps children busy. Women's bathroom is nice and spacious with a diaper changing pad. If you are a large group, or you are hungry, or with a kid(s), go there before 1730 for dinner. You can expect to wait 30, 45 minutes after 1800 to be seated. Overall a nice family restaurant. read more

I just wanted to start off and say that I really like Elixor, I have been going since it has opened. I am used to having a great experience and great food. I used to live in Laval so the Laval location was usually the place I would go. (I now live closer to the one in the west island). We ended up going to Laval for a dinner with friends. This time it was different. From the moment we walked in, things were not right. The waiter seemed pissed off that he had to work and seemed very unhappy to serve us. It took him forever to come to our table. We asked the waiter if we can start by ordering our starters, that went fine... He came back a few minutes later ans told the table (we were 10) "We are busy tonight, I have two minutes to take your order..." We could not believe our ears. The waiter never came by to see if we wanted refills of water and drinks or even ask us if everything is OK, we had to ask other waiters for the refills. . The food came, it was good but not the same as it used to be... I find the location in the west-island is much better. At the end, we were asked if we wanted desert, nobody wanted so he brought the bill. When we were about to leave, my wife changed her mind and asked the waiter if she could buy a piece of cheesecake to go. The waiter said to go to the hostess, so my wife did and guess what! the hostess told her to go see a waiter! After playing the game for a while, my wife talked to the manager who was sitting by the door. She explained the problem she was having and the only thing the manager did was tell her to go to the bar and that someone would help her there.... Customer service at this location is a big "0"... If customer service is important to you, do not go to this location. read more

Going out for dinner isn't always just about the food, it's also about the experience. My gf and I had a pleasant experience eating here. The food was great and the service was delightful! If you like salads then you really should try the salmon salad. The portion is very satisfying and the salad was just great! Trust me you won't be hungry after eating this salad. My gf had the tuna salad and she claims it was delicious and the tuna was perfectly prepared. For desert we ordered the Lindt chocolate cheese cake and it was good but I've had better which is why I'm giving 1 star less than perfect. The whipped cream was frozen and the cheese cake was missing flavor. All in all a good experience and we'll definitely be going back for that salad. read more

Calamari entree is excellent with their curry dipping sauce. Menu changes from time to time and has a good variety of tastes. Desserts are amazing and have a rather big portion size so you might want to split it with someone. Coffee is good and the waiters top it up often. Good and friendly service. read more

Fantastic restaurant. SO MANY CHOICES! My favorite is the chicken avocada crema plus the beer/cheese soup which is served on Saturdays from what I know. Fair prices, and very attentive service. Can get fairly packed, but there is lots of seating. Always come back for more! read more

Elixor is a great place for big groups, you will find something for every taste, from pasta to Asian cuisine and various salads. The portions are big and prices are fair. For those who went to the Cheesecake factory in the US, it seems like a small replica without the Cheesecake deserts. read more

Great family restaurant, they are used to accomodate family with kids! The food is always amazing, I like the research behing the plates, well done. Service is courteous. Since it is a family restaurant, it is loud. Generally speaking, great place! read more

Food wasn't fresh at all! seemed like bread for cheese dip was old and hard, drinks I had a lemonade cocktail and wife had daquari (both were way to sweet ! And I'm not picky at all with my food or drinks, main dish Pad Thai was again wayy to sweet and my wife had a burger average at best meat was dry. Overall I've eaten here 3 times and seems like it's all about volume and size service was horrible I actually had to get up and go find our waiter for dessert and the bill. There are much better restaurant in the area and I strongly suggest looking elsewhere. read more

I go to this restaurant quite often. Delicious food and they serve pretty much everything. It's not expensive and the service is very good.

Extremely Disappointed in this place, I went with 2 friends for lunch at 1:45pm, we were seated outside and were never served, we waited 20 minutes and never even got our water!! tables coming in 5-10min after us were even served and I was trying to get the servers attention but we were ignored. Very disappointed in this place, I've heard bad about it and it's true. Very disorganized. read more

I go there with me and my dad almost every Saturday. I either order the filet mignon, spinach dip or chicken crispers. I'm telling you their awesome! I didn't know this site existed before watching "Kitchen Nightmares" Anyways this restaurant is a big win in Laval. read more

I've been there before and it was ok. Took my wife there a couple of weeks ago. The menu has all changed. Nothing much appealed to me. And I certainly was not going to spend $28 on a steak. I can Bbq them at home for half that. So I got a burger, which was just ok. The fries are like the frozen shoestring fries from the grocery store. We also ordered soft drinks which never came, but were on the bill of course. The waiter, who was just OK, got a little mad when I questioned the bill - 2 cokes are almost $8 with the tax. It took him 15 minutes to find someone who could cancel the first bill and make a correct one. Not really impressed with the place. Certainly overrated. Tries to copy the Cheesecake Factory - not even close. read more
