Best Greek food imo, love their tzatziki sauce & their pork souvlaki & gyro are always so delicious (never dry either!) Nice decor with lots of seating, fast & friendly service & they have lunch specials - but the prices are pretty reasonable regardless. I always make a point to go to St-Viateur whenever I come to Montreal, not for the bagels but for this Greek restaurant! I've been a customer since the 80s & the fact it's still there & there are repeat customers says a lot about the consistency & good food.
Arahova used to be decent if you wanted simple Greek fast food. I went yesterday & wow… I should've known what was coming when I saw the washroom, which honestly looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a week.
We started with two beers served in dirty glasses. Wanting something fresh before the main course, we ordered the pikilia. Technically it was fresh… straight out of the fridge. Easily one of the worst pikilias I've ever had. Everything was drenched in some kind of oil that definitely didn't taste like olive oil.
Then came the chicken gyros platter. Pretty standard dish, but again, disappointing. The potatoes were bland, the Greek salad looked sad, & while the chicken & rice were okay, the whole plate was extremely greasy.
We spent over $100 for this experience. Honestly, a shame. Definitely not going back.
Ordered a souvlaki pita. Disgusting. 4 small pieces of meat, very chewy full of nerves, tasted burnt. Pita was so small seemed like a children's portion, French fries were awful. Not going back. Too bad new ownership hasn't improved anything.
I had an AMAZING experience here at Arahova on St. Viateur (THE ORIGINAL)tonight with my friends!!!! I felt SOOO nostalgic going back there since I haven't been there since I was VERY little!!!!! Food was DELICIOUS, place was spotless & staff was PHENOMENAL!!!! 😊😊😊😊🥰🥰🥰🥰 I'll DEFINITELY come back soon!!!
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.
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.
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
