Well-liked Greek restaurant in Laval, with many loyal customers who have been coming back for a long time. Most reviews mention tasty and fresh food, generous portions, good value for money, and service that is often very friendly and fast. A few comments, however, mention price increases on certain extras, portions that are sometimes smaller, and uneven quality in some takeout or delivery orders.

Best greek food in Montreal, generous portions at a fair price. Atmosphere is nice, cozy and clean. Their plates are under $25 per person. Kids eat at about $15 plate. If you are into diets like restricted carbs or keto, the menu offers you plenty of choices. A must have if you are in greater Montreal area.

Absolutely love marathons! We always go here when we want Greek food! We often take family from out of town here and they love it! We ordered large amounts of their chicken gyro, pita bread and tzatziki here for our wedding anniversary as a build your own gyro station and it was absolutely amazing! Our guests loved it too!

Best souvlaki pita I’ve had, even better than some that I had in Greece. Some of the items prices like the express deal is very worth it. Please never change the price, it’s the only good, fresh and healthier option that is still affordable to get. I eat from there very often it’s simple and good. I definitely recommend.

I havent been here in at least a decade and decided to order off Ubereats. It seems my favorite classic gyro meat recipe has unfortunately changed and now reminds me of like schwarma (which i love) but did not expect. Not only does it look different, but the taste is exceptionally salty. The portions are still generous and well packed and I would continue to come back

Salut Timothy, ravi de te revoir après tout ce temps ! Nos recettes sont restées les mêmes au fil des ans, mais nous apprécions que tu nous aies signalé que la viande était un peu trop salée aujourd'hui. Nous sommes ravis que les portions t'aient plu et nous avons hâte de te revoir bientôt. 🙌💙

What happened? It was my favorite place to have a Greek gyro. Not this time. The meat was oversalted cardboard and hard to chew. The fries were refried and the salad had no dressing. First time I couldn't finish the plateJust a waist of money.

Bonjour Lucia, merci pour votre commentaire et pour votre fidélité depuis plus de 20 ans. Nous accordons une grande importance à nos clients de longue date comme vous, et nous avons été particulièrement touchés d'apprendre que votre repas n'a pas été à la hauteur de vos attentes.<br><br>Dès que vous nous avez fait part de votre remarque, nous vous avons immédiatement préparé une nouvelle assiette de gyros, et nous sommes ravis que ce remplacement vous ait davantage plu. Nous vous remercions de nous avoir donné l'opportunité de rectifier le tir.<br><br>Concernant la salade, notre salade grecque est traditionnellement servie avec de l'huile d'olive, tandis que notre salade Marathon est agrémentée de notre vinaigrette maison. Nous prenons néanmoins en compte vos remarques et continuerons à porter une attention particulière à la préparation de nos plats.<br><br>Merci encore pour votre fidélité. Nous espérons vous servir encore de nombreuses années.

Food was good, served fast even with a full house. All staff were super nice and accommodating. Only thing is that slippery floor as you walk up the stairs. Could be very dangerous for anyone with limited mobility or the elderly.

Used to come here almost weekly when my family used to live in Laval; since then, we moved and my father passed. Came back today with my mom and the food is just as good today as 20 years ago. We also had wonderfully excellent service by Gregory - he is one of the most attentive and sweet servers I’ve ever had and he helped make mine and my mom’s experience truly lovely. Thank you to everyone at Marathon for being a consistently excellent place to enjoy delicious food! ☺️🙏 03/05/2026 edit: came back again today and had above and beyond excellent service from Savannah. Greg also kindly came around to our table to say hi! 😊 The food, the service and atmosphere (with the hockey game playing in the background- Habs won!) is outstanding! Can’t rave enough about this restaurant 🥰🙏 Thank you Marathon for consistently excellent experiences!!!

Take out, I ordered calamari with rice. Rice was going bad, because they're keeping days old rice and serving it to customers. When I called to ask for another plate, they told me it's either 10$ credit for next time I order or nothing. I will not order from this place ever. Be cautious with your take out orders.

Hi John, we’re sorry to hear about your experience. Please be assured that we never serve old rice, everything is prepared fresh daily. We offered a $10 credit to fairly compensate but we cannot credit a full meal for a half serving portion of rice. Please call 450-681-7385 so we can discuss this further. Thank you for your time.

Always loved Marathon but recently had and not only was the meat dry, the portion size seems to have gotten smaller as well. Shame because it has been very good in the past…but at these prices these days, not worth the money.

Waitress brought the plate and asked, "Do you want anything else, ketchup? Mayo? Tzatziki?" Yeah sure you can bring me some Tzatziki. And they end up charging you for the sauce. I think not letting the client know that there's an extra charge for the sauce is unethical. I didn't really want the sauce but since the waitress asked along with mayo and ketchup, you really think it is offered for free. I have no issues paying, but LET THE CLIENT KNOW THAT THIS IS AN EXTRA.

Hi Qais, we appreciate your feedback. It’s never our intention to make a customer feel misled but we understand that the way it was offered felt unclear. We’ll be addressing this with our floor staff to ensure it doesn't happen again. We hope to welcome you back soon for a better experience. 💙

I’ve been going to this restaurant for over 10 years, and it has never disappointed. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and authentic across all the locations I’ve visited. It’s one of those places you can always count on for a satisfying meal. The prices are also very reasonable—our family of five can enjoy a full meal without feeling like we’ve spent an entire paycheck, which is rare these days. The service is another highlight. The staff is always calm, friendly, and welcoming, which makes the overall experience even more enjoyable. A reliable go-to spot for great food, good value, and a relaxed dining experience. Highly recommended!
