I've been eating in Greek souvlaki type restaurants for close to 50 years and I would place this establishment at the bottom of my list. From the potatoes to the meat, quite mediocre fare. The pork souvlaki was bland, didn't appear ro have been marinated and without the tzatziki to save it, I wouldn't have eaten it. The potatoes, which they called Greek potatoes in no way ressemble any that I've seen anywhere else. Rather than being fried and basted with a mustard based oil, they were simply boiled and flavoured with a lacklustre, flavourless vegetable oil. If you're looking for Greek food that ressembles what's offered and has been for decades in other Montréal establishments, skip this place.

Souvlaki bar is one of my favorite restaurants, especially the one in Saint Leonard, the service yesterday that a waiter gave us was excellent, you can see that he is a person who loves his work, the food was perfect.

I've been going there for years, calamari is/was great. Last order about 2 days ago, the amount of calamari has been greatly reduced. Not worth the same price. Will not be ordering there again. Ordering out is already very expensive.

The place is well lit and quite roomy. The server was friendly and efficient. The food was good but not great. I had a chicken souvlaki pita with tzatziki and a calamari pita. The souvlaki pita was good but I would preferred more garlic in the tzatziki. The calamari pita was interesting and I am glad I tried it but much prefered the souvlaki pita. The sauce was a little sweeter.

It has been a few times that we have gone there to eat, and the service and food have always been good. We usually appreciate our visits every time.However, yesterday we decided to order takeout instead of eating there. When ordering, the server was not polite, was looking elsewhere while we were speaking, and overall was not attentive to what we were saying. We had to repeat ourselves multiple times, and we even pointed on the menu to show exactly what we wanted. Because of this experience, we will not be coming back again.I honestly did not feel very comfortable with the service, but we still went through with the order. When we got home, we realized that we did not receive what we had ordered. We ordered the 1/2 lb gyros plate, not the pita sandwich.Mistakes can happen, but I feel like this server made the mistake because she was not attentive at all.

Tonight was my third time at this specific location. The service was excellent. The portions are good. The sauce they serve with the fried calamari tastes cheap (yellow mustard mixed with mayo and mayo+ketchup: not very Greek, if you ask me). We ordered the half chicken plate. The chicken was quite bland; there were barely any spices or garlic or lemon on the skin. Their salad dressing is disappointing. It's bland and uninteresting (you don't taste that punch from olive oil, garlic, lemon and oregano you usually find in an authentic Greek dressing). Their rice is usually good, but tonight, it was bland and more like cafeteria rice. Finally, during a previous visit, I ordered a chicken souvlaki pita and tonight, I asked some tzatziki on the side and I can say without a doubt that there is something off with their tzatziki. I can't put my finger on it, but it is something I make regularly at home and that I ate at other Greek restaurants and theirs doesn't taste good. This restaurant has great potential, but you can feel some laziness in the kitchen (or maybe in the administration?) because they tend to cut corners and they don't serve authentic Greek food. EDIT, MARCH 26, 2026: Lately, I ordered the fillet of sole, a dish I had ordered several times before. They ALWAYS served TWO fillets of sole per plate. This time, though, they put ONLY ONE (probably thinking that their customers wouldn't realize it!). On top of that, instead of the mesclun lettuce they usually serve, they had the nerve to make their salad with ICEBERG lettuce!! That was it, for me. Never again. I will spend my money elsewhere.

We ordered through uber eats honestly very tasty. The tzatziki is phenomenal. However i would have liked a full pita instead of just a half that came with my plate, in general it felt like a small amount of food, we ordered from here for the first time because of the 2 for 1 deal on uber eats but if we had to pay full price we would have been disappointed.

We had a wonderful experience at this souvlaki restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. The atmosphere is very warm and cozy, which made the whole meal even more enjoyable. I especially loved the real green plants in the space, it feels so much nicer and more natural compared to many other locations that only use artificial plants. The photos and memories displayed on the walls were also very interesting and gave the place a unique and welcoming character. And of course, the young woman who served our table was very friendly, which made our visit even better. We truly enjoyed our time here and will definitely come back.

First time trying this restaurant via 'Too Good to Go'; I'm impressed. Delicious food, generous portion, great variety in the bag. Beyond the food, the service was prompt and courteous; the restaurant has a warm, welcoming ambience. I will definitely be returning for a sit-down dinner with friends. Thank you!
