This was 💗the most welcoming restaurant experience💗 I've ever had. From the moment I stepped inside, the host(staffs) were incredibly attentive & thoughtful about every little detail.
The food was, of course, delicious 🤩 cuz many of the dishes were new to me, I had a lot of questions, & they were so kind to explain everything.
especially, the combination of the lamb & the rice was perfect 😍
It was a perfect meal that truly made my day 💝
One of best Greek restaurants in montreal. Top quality of steak with perfectly cooked. Soup,rice & also very good. I am highly recommend this place. Thanks chef shohel to taking care of me
Une superbe découverte !
Ce restaurant est discret, presque passe-partout au premier regard, mais il cache une expérience remarquable.
Le service est attentionné & professionnel, & la nourriture est tout simplement excellente.
Étant quelqu'un de plutôt difficile à impressionner, j'ai été conquise.
Les plats sont faits avec soin, à partir d'ingrédients frais, & on se croirait transporté directement en Grèce.
Mention spéciale à Marie-Ange, une serveuse expérimentée & passionnée qui a grandement contribué à la qualité de notre soirée.

Ordered myself the $39 3 course meal deal & everything was great I must say. From the nice appetizers to the main steak meal & then finishing it off with the dessert overall A1 I must say & brother Othmane gave amazing service.
Had the 39$ three course meal, for its value it was fantastic, the zuchini chips & the fried cabbage balls were very delicious & flavorful. I had the 16 Oz steak, it was perfectly cooked at medium rare, as well as the loukoumades with cream cheese as dessert was a perfect way to end it. Othman gave us excellent service!! Highly recommend this spot!
If you don't visit, you are missing out on a fabulous experience! Food & service were excellent. Warm & inviting atmosphere. When we are in Montreal again, we will definitely be going back. Try the many amazing dips (the Melitzanosalata was divine). So glad we discovered Restaurant Anecdote!
Newly opened neighbourhood restaurant with super fresh & tasty food & absolute excellent service. Our waiter was friendly, charismatic, & provided great prompt service. Very affordable prices.
The food was excellent. We ordered the seafood & the meat platters. Delicious food! The service was friendly & attentive. Beautiful experience for a group.

Petit spin off d'un autre restaurant grec du coin. L'emplacement est intéressant, la carte est honnête & les portions sont généreuses. Bien pour toute la famille.
Very good greek restaurant, it has big portions & good quality dishes, very welcoming & friendly staff, the vibe is quite & relaxed, the steak was delicious, totally recommended spot.
The service was excellent. I was really happy with the service. The filet mignon was perfectly made. The rice & potato were good enough to pair with the fantastic steak. The vibe, music, coziness of the restaurant was really nice. The washrooms were also nice & clean.
Un des meilleurs restaurants à Montréal. Le service est excellent & leurs plats sont impeccables. Nous vous recommandons la côtelette d'agneau, le poisson & le calmar frit. Nous reviendrons pour goûter les autres plats. Merci beaucoup, chef ! Ils offrent également un service de valet sur réservation.
