Score 14/20 "elio bares all to the street - full frontal
glass shows off a smart, casual space, midriff marble , open kitchen....The food
mirrors the mood - nothing superfluous to obstruct the pure, balanced
flavours. |

We love the courtyard, the service, the laidback friendliness of
the place ...but above all, we love Robyn Touchard's food. |

elio has always been ahead of the pack. Beef carpaccio is lifted
by salmoriglio and wild rocket .
Braised beef cheeks adorning perfectly aldente casarecce
pasta has a lush earthiness. With Elio himself suggesting clever tipples from
a ripper list, it's hard to say no when he suggests a grappa too." |

"What you need is more restaurans like Elio. Robyn
Touchard's food breaks new ground without losing touch with La Vera
Cucina." |

Score 14/20, 1 Chef Hat. Consistently very
good, effortless
Italian style...It is at once contemporary and exuberant, and with a menu
that's similarly simple, bold and beguiling. The listed dishes are familiar enough, but most
have an elegant twist, raising them above the ordinary.' |

the neighbourhood standard. Too many regulars know of Elio's fresh zucchini flowers,

Leichhardt best asset". |
