About

Faros focuses on the authentic preparation of Mediterranean seafood and traditional Greek culinary staples. Patrons encounter a selection of whole grilled fish seasoned simply with lemon, olive oil, and wild oregano to highlight natural flavors. The kitchen utilizes imported ingredients to maintain structural integrity across classic spreads, grilled octopus, and crispy calamari. Fresh vegetables and briny feta feature prominently in salads served alongside charcoal-grilled meats and hearth-baked pita. The interior environment emphasizes functional simplicity to mirror the coastal origins of its primary menu offerings. This establishment prioritizes the direct presentation of quality proteins and seasoned produce, ensuring each element remains grounded in regional preparation techniques. The culinary approach centers on high-heat grilling methods and balanced seasoning to deliver a consistent experience for those seeking traditional Hellenic seafood dishes.

First of all, I want to thank our waiter Alam for his great service & recommendation. The food was amazing, My husband loves his swordfish steak, it is done just right, The owner was very friendly & let us try the Octopus & it was amazing. If you like spicy, ask them for the chili oil, you will not regret.

The best seafood restaurant! Unbelievable how good everything is! Staring with the Greek salad... Amazing flavor of the tomatoes, cucumbers, onions & delicious Feta cheese 😋 The fish of the day is fresh fish. We enjoyed the fresh Red Snapper & I choose the Chilean sea bass, it was amazing!!!. We also ordered the octopus dish, it was so tender & delicious!! For appetizers we enjoyed the spinach in filo pastry , fried zucchini & eggplant & the tzatziki !!! Very good!! Fresh bread with olive oil & vinegar mmmmmmm good! so good!!! We would highly recommend this restaurant. When you are in Montreal, take the time & have dinner here. You will not be disappointed. The chef truly understands Greek cuisine & all the flavors !! I lived in Greece for almost 3 years & Faros Restaurant Hits it out of the park. Hands down !If you love fresh seafood this is the place you want ! The service is very friendly & accommodating. There are enough tables but making a reservation on a busy weekend is highly recommended. Enjoy!
