Above all else, Elio, like its cousin Savio Volpe, celebrates liveliness, warmth and hospitality. Viva la convivialità!Reservations are available for dinner from 5 pm to 10 pm every night, and for brunch on Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays from 10 am to 1:30 pm.

Wednesday evening (6th, May). We accidentally booked for Thursday the 7th and Savio staff were incredibly accommodating to fit us in. Our waitress was outstanding and food was incredible. We had a tight timeline as we had an event to attend at 6pm - and the service and attention to detail was fabulous. Thank you!!!!
