Overall, Arahova Souvlaki comes across as a long standing favorite for classic Greek comfort food with a loyal following, offering friendly service, a warm terrace, and generous portions; the menu covers lamb, chicken, beef, souvlaki and pitas; many reviews praise the tzatziki, dolmades, and pita, and the catering service is noted as reliable and on time; some diners note price increases and changes since new ownership, with certain items like fries, pita, and tzatziki varying in quality; a few experiences mention portions being smaller or sauces heavy while others emphasize value for money and consistency; overall impressions lean positive, with some caveats about consistency and price.
Tried this Arahova location & honestly had a really great experience overall.
The food was fresh, flavorful, & well-portioned. The fried calamari were freshly made, the chicken plate was super satisfying with a nice mix of textures, & the pita wrap was simple but hit the spot. Potatoes so flavourful & addictive! Everything tasted clean & well-seasoned.
What really stood out though was the service. The waitresses were incredibly kind & patient the whole time. We were actually among the last customers close to closing, & they still treated us with care, no rushing, no attitude, just genuinely good service.
I was paying with a gift card & they weren't familiar with how to process it, but instead of making it awkward, they stayed calm, figured it out, & made sure I could use it without any issue.
Overall, great food + genuinely kind service (even at closing time) = definitely coming back.
Got the sliced chicken platter, which was subpar - the meat was quite dry, though the potatoes were delicious. The staff who looked like he might've been the owner or manager was nice & helpful.

My Spanakopita was ice cold the dough was basically raw & uncooked, feta had a really bad taste to it. Chaotic service, waiter forgot my friends order & brought Appetizers & the main course at the same time.. By the time we finished the appetizers, our main dish was cold. Friend didn't have his food yet. Kinda expensive for what you get
Propriétaire exceptionnelle sa fait 40 an je vais a cette place la depuis l'ouverture & toujours aussi bons ses souvlaki pita au porc meuilleur souvlaki en ville au porc tendre savoureux vive la grece
This restaurant that I have been ordering from for 25+ years is experiencing a big decline in food quality. This is unfortunate as consistency was its thing.
I found out that it's a new administration. Sad but I think this place is done

For a family event at church, I ordered Arahova for 50 people, to be served buffet style. They delivered right on time & the food was absolutely delicious. Everyone who attended was delighted to be served warm food. The catering service was spot on, & very professional. I highly recommend Arahova for their catering menu & service.
Bon je suis dans une classe spéciale puisque je fréquente le restaurant depuis plus de 43 ans, seulement ce n'est pas de gaieté de coeur que je dois relever une baisse notable côté cuisine : les frites autrefois croquantes & graisseuses ont été remplacées par de grosse frites pâteuses & moins goûteuses…le pita n'est pas aussi bon, le tzatziki moins ferme & goûteux…quelque chose est à côté de la cible depuis les changements de propriétaires.
Les prix ont aussi beaucoup augmenté!
Rien à dire côté service & la dame à l'entrée que nous connaissons depuis si longtemps. Mais c'est triste d'accepter que cette qualité est chose du passé & que nous devrons aller ailleurs.
Faut surtout pas se fier au image ...selon la photo 2 giro. 12.95. Bien lire la description. C est 1 giro a 12.95. Au moins si yavais du goût pcq sa goûtait la sauce tzatiki point. Même la viande goûtait rien. La ligne rouge sont ben meilleures pi 2 pour 13.50

C'est ok, très peu moderne & nourriture très basique, disons les termes, c'est un fast food, il ne faut pas s'attendre à une grande gastronomie. C'est de plus en plus cher par contre!
Ordered from here, got two chicken platters & some extra sauces. The bags were covered in grease.. & it was 70$ in all. Very little food & amounts.. pretty disappointing. 5$ sauces for that tiny amount seems like a rip off.
Arahova has been serving Montrealers classic Greek comfort food for years.
Their beautiful terrasse feels like Greek island vibes. The menu is wide & covers all the favorites. They even import wine & coffee 🇬🇷🧿
