What guests say about Marven's Restaurant
Marven's Restaurant stands out as a much-loved Greek classic in Montreal, with lots of positive comments about the fried calamari, lamb chops, skewers, and generous portions. The service is often described as fast, friendly, and attentive, but a few customers have had more uneven visits with overcooked or dry dishes. A few things to know before going: the restaurant only accepts cash, does not take reservations, and there may be a wait, especially during busy hours.
Reviews / Ratings for Marven's Restaurant
Rice need cook well.
Prices have gone up, 4 ppl ~200$ is on the steep side. No alcohol, but we did get the 2x lamb chops. The waiter was in a hurry and not very nice. The food is still amazing so yeah its worth to go there maybe 1once a year in my case.
Have been coming to this restaurant for so long and over the last little while there has been a waiter who stood out tremendously! Costa is the BEST!! He reminds me of my own son 😀 keep up the amazing work and awesome personality!!! Mom #1
Have loved this place forever but the highlight is always our server Costa. As long as he’s here we’ll keep coming back! AKA Mom number 3!
Best Greek food in the city! And Costa is the best server! He is an absolute doll! So sweet, charming and attentive! Mom #2 can’t wait to come back!!
Quite an expensive restaurant, portion are small compared to competitors. Fried Calamari entree and salmon were wonderful, however, the fries and all their meat selection were extremely dry. Good salad. Our waiter wasn't extremely cordial but was present enough to make up for it, decor was very nice and it felt warm and cozy. We were extremely disappointed towards the end of our meal: when we came, and there was barely anybody, we were given small portions of food compared to when the restaurant got busier, and we noticed a very noticeable difference on the portions given to us compared to other customers. CASH ONLY accepted, which is a big negative flag if you don't carry cash around; they mention an atm close by, but at this time with technology, there should be no excuse to have their terminal off.
Have been going to Marven's for many years but this week was very disappointed....Calamari were rubbery brought it home for garbage
This space is highly recommended because it has so many varied options for the community. Every person can easily discover an option that meets their personal needs. The entire vibe is very polite, peaceful, and warm. The staff responds quickly and provides good help. I will certainly return to this spot to explore further options.
absolutely incredible greek food that hits the spot every single time. the calamari is perfectly crispy and the souvlaki plates are massive, so you definitely get your moneys worth here. the staff is super fast and welcoming, making the whole experience feel like classic neighborhood staple
Why does a restaurant accept cyclists on Uber!!! My food arrived in 1 hour, it was cold. It’s unacceptable!
Went for lunch. I assumed they used tzatziki sauce in the souvlaki pita but it was their home sauce. Not a fan. Their salad, not fresh and brown. Very disappointed of overall experience for the prices charged.
The best 👌
Food and service is amazing here
Why didn’t I take pictures. Why?!?! My friend brought me here. He grew up in the neighborhood and had been going to this spot for most of his life. Legit. Calamari. Lamb chops. Greek salad. Loved every bite and would highly recommend.
Delucious, affordable and the best staff
There calamari is super chewy i was completely unable to eat it cost 29$ plus tax what a waste of money!! The fries were stale the chicken was overcooked back in the day their food used to be good and now I don't know what happened been like this the last couple of times I ordered and I had enough now I'm giving my honest review.
Very pleasant experience all around. Ordering didn’t take much time, the staff interacted with us kindly, and the food tasted excellent. The atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable too. I’d definitely recommend this place for a nice casual meal.
Very tasty food
This spot surpassed all hopes. The cozy vibe felt welcoming immediately. Their menu is vast, featuring top-tier ingredients. I adored the crispy salmon and rich risotto. Service was sharp but subtle. That molten lava cake? Pure bliss. A stellar evening I’ll be telling everyone about!
Great food! Calamari is a must! Lamb chop is awesome!
Just one word: WOW! Great service, freat food, best greek restaurant in Montreal.
Hype is real. Came in on a whim to place an order to go. The famous calamari is legitimately the best I’ve ever had. Literally writing this from my parking spot while stuffing my face on calamari and some insane house sauce, like crack. They said to eat hot and they weren’t wrong. Can’t wait to come back for a seated meal.
Best Greek food ever
The best dishes is the calamari and shrimp .
