Nice place with a modern vibe. The food was good, but quite expensive for the size of the portions. We were 3, 2 ladies who don't eat big meals and one gentleman that was very hungry. We started with the greek salad. It was nice, with a good size chunck of feta cheese and enough to share for 3 people. The calamari was tender and crispy, we loved the yogourt sauce that came with it, but the portion was more of an appetizer size for one than a meal. The same goes with the greek sausage, just one, cut into 9 pieces. The pork chop (only 1 in the "to share" ) menu was average size, good but I could have eaten the whole thing myself. Basically, they chopped it in 6 that's why it's "shareable" The green beans were delicious, but again small.We left hungry with a $150 bill (including only 1 beer).
Reviews / Ratings for Taverne Grecque Máti
Great ambiance, food and service
We loved everything about our dinner at Máti. We are still talking about the grilled octopus, the lamb chops and the crudo a day later. Great atmosphere and drinks as well, and the staff was very friendly. We’ll be back for sure!
The service was incredible from start to finish. Adrian went above and beyond to help me customize a birthday menu for my group, making the whole experience feel special and seamless. The drinks were delicious, and the food was outstanding. Thank you to Adrian and Sofia for making my birthday such a memorable night!
The salad, dips and deserts were tasty. Although it's no fault of the restaurant, our shareable main (Pastitsio) wasn't to our liking (it was almost like a Greek recipe meets Shepherd's pie fusion of sorts). Our server was efficient but rather terse in demeanor. We'll try something else on the menu next time.
Amazing food, fantastic service, wonderful atmosphere.
Outstanding food and service! This is easily some of the best Greek food in Montreal. Our waiter was incredibly kind and helpful. The taramasalata, deep-fried calamari, stuffed peppers, sea bass, and Greek sausages were all delicious, paired with great drinks. Slightly loud music, but we’ll definitely be back.
Unbelievable establishment. The service even better. Shout out to ‘Adrianoupoulos’ for the entertainment throughout the whole night. Recommend 10/10. Food and drinks were just exceptional !
A phenomenal experience on all levels. Shout out to Felix and Adrian for taking such great care of me! Sat at the bar and it is beautiful and cozy! Run, don’t walk to Mati!
An Friday evening meal in March while on a 4 night break. The sharing experience was great and the food well prepared and tasty. The Waitress had excellent English and was very friendly and efficient. The atmosphere was lively but not over loud with a couple of birthday celebrations.
What a fantastic place!!! Our 1st time and by far the best Greek food I ever had. The staff is helpful, super friendly, and very professional. We were a family of 5, we choose the seabass, pork chops, vine leaves, calamari, roasted potatoes, grilled octopus, green beans. Everything was excellent, well seasoned, and cooked to perfection, so so delicious. We also had the ice cream and the custard. It was amazing! I highly recommend it.
Very good experience. Staff is super friendly and all dishes were excellent. Perfectly cooked and seasoned. Even my kids that are picky asked for more!
I wanted to leave a review because my friends and I came here last night to celebrate my birthday, and the staff truly made it such a special experience. They couldn’t have been kinder, offering to help set up the table with balloons and making sure everything was perfect for us. Our server, Charlotte, was amazing, so friendly and attentive. She even helped us take pictures, which we really appreciated. All of my friends kept saying how we hadn’t had service this good in a long time. The food was also delicious with no complaints at all. Overall, such a great experience, I would definitely come back!
Best food on the planet, it’s as if you’re eating on a summer evening in Greece. I recommend the grilled octopus and Greek salad as well as the pork chops!! Truly, it melts in your mouth and each bite is flavourful. This is one of the best Greek restaurants in Montreal, I don’t think any other place can compare. The service was awesome, staff were very kind and always engaging with us making sure our service was good. This place deserves a 5 star rating, even higher if possible
Best Greek food I've ever had! 100% will come back and recommend to anyone. Service was amazing, so was the atmosphere.
Great food, great ambiance!
Taverne Grecque Máti is a perfect spot for those who love Mediterranean cuisine. They serve traditional Greek flavors with an exceptional focus on freshness and quality. From appetizers to main courses, everything is in perfect harmony. I highly recommend the calamari and stuffed grape leaves. It's also a very satisfying place in terms of price-performance.
Had a beautiful supper with my family. The food is great. Very flavorful and the right amount per plate. Would go back.
An amazing experience we had there !! From the atmosphere, food and service , everything was exceptional! The music wasn’t too loud so you can talk, the decor is very cozy and tasteful and makes you feel your somewhere in Greece, the food was full of flavours, from the appetizers to the main dishes to the dessert and drinks ! We had some dips with fresh pita for starters, then had the grilled octopus , grilled shrimps to share, then had the grilled pork chops and kefta , all of it was just wow ! For cocktail you need to take Minos ! The service with charlotte and Adrian was on point even it added warmth to our first time there! I definitely recommend that restaurant and will come back there and try others items from the menu !! Montreal needs more restaurants like this one nowadays !!!
I think Demeter is the chef there
Very small portions. Quality is average. Grilled Octopus was good. Service was very good. But overall its overpriced.
This was my third visit to Mati and every time I am blown away by the amazing quality of the food and attentive service. We shared the watermelon salad, the flambe cheeze, the grilled octopus, tzaziki with pita, the branzino and brocolinis topped with flan for desert. Every bite was more delicious than the last, pure delight. The service was impecable and warm and the setting is beautiful. I could not resist taking home a pastitsio home for lunch tomorrow. A gem of a restaurant, can't wait to go back. Visited again on a friday afternoon for a late lunch and the food is always divine and service excellent (thank you Charlotte)
I would love to be able to recommend Mati - the food is fantastic and service is very good. But one aspect was so unpleasant that I need to mention: the loud music. We went for an early dinner (6 pm, not party time), and music playing at that time was just on the verge of being too loud. It was was interesting music and no too intrusive at that point. Mid way through our dinner, they started playing loud, pulsing lounge music, inappropriate to the enjoyment of a good meal in good company. I eventually mentioned it to the staff and they turned it down 10 mins later. My preference is for music that contributes to a good, warm, comfy atmosphere, so unfortunately, I don't plan to be back.
Enjoyed a very nice meal here. Food and service were excellent. They were able to accommodate our low salt diet, by recommending my dishes to suit. The grilled octopus was very good and the lamb “fell” off the bone and was extremely tender. Altogether a great experience!
Great vibe overall, food was great
