Overall, reviews describe Anecdote as a welcoming, value driven Greek restaurant with generous portions and fresh, flavorful dishes. The lamb chops, moussaka, grilled octopus, calamari and Greek salad with its excellent dressing receive frequent praise, as do loukoumades that feel homemade and desserts that hit the right sweet note. The rib steak is noted for good quality and aroma, and many guests leave with leftovers thanks to sizable portions. Service is repeatedly described as warm, attentive and efficient, and the cozy atmosphere makes it a strong neighborhood find. A few notes mention a dish being a bit dry or an experience that could be better on an off night, but the consensus is that Anecdote offers solid value, thoughtful preparation, and a memorable Greek inspired meal in Montreal.
Ordinaire. On a pris la table d'hôte: entrées correctes. La tzatziki était bonne, bien qu'elle manquait un peu d'assaisonnement, & la portion est très généreuse. Je dois dire que la côtelette d'agneau était excellente, vraiment très tendre, le point fort du repas. Les accompagnements des plats principaux font pitié - légumes bouillis encore durs qui ne goûtent rien & un riz se rapprochant drôlement du riz pilaf en canne de mon enfance. Desserts bof. Le service était très attentionné & rapide. L'ambiance est peut être plus agréable dans la section arrière du restaurant.
Après 10 jours au Québec, dernière soirée de retour a Montreal: une pépite ! Un service efficace, attentionné & souriant & alors un plaisir degustatif: plats excellents!! Franchement bravo, merci & aux futurs clients: allez y les yeux fermés!

Nice & clean full service Greek restaurant. The interior is clean, staff are friendly & can speak English. Food is great. Very tasty. Service was fast too, food was served in a few minutes. The seafood taste fresh & tender. The hummus spread is just right not too salty & fine texture.
It is honestly an amazing restaurant! Home made Food is really good, sitting cozy .. trust me .. i'm a very picky guy & i really enjoyed it .. view on the mountain .. wow
Very good value & very reasonable
Prices were very affordable for the portions
Tried the Greek salad , the dressing was excellent & the vegetables were very fresh.
Fried zucchini & eggplant was ok , a bit too dry for my taste,
Rib steak was a real 16 ounce, served wuth cauliflower & broccoli. It was delicious
The lamb chops were the best thing we had , very tasty & juicy
Ended the meal , with the Greek fried. Loukomades , tasted very home made
So much food we tot home two containers.
Good service as well
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!
