Old school Montreal institution, Benny & his team make magic. Key dishes are Greek Salad, house fries, the eggplants chips are tasty & obviously they cook your fish of choice to perfection 👌

Wife & I just celebrated our anniversary here.
we started with some Proseco, & had a Greek Salad with a side of Crab Cakes which were decadent. My main course was the lamb chops, grilled to perfection & wife had the grilled shrimp. Both dishes came with rice & vegetables.
For dessert, we finished of with Loukoumades for two & they were so good I ordered another single portion.
We spent three & a half hours there, they do not rush you, & the service is excellent.
The staff go out of their way for you. I had developed a headache while there & the waiter made sure I got some Tylenol.
Benny (the owner & chef) has a good thing going!

Fabulous meal at this very charming restaurant. Service was very attentive & friendly. Fresh ingredients with delicious flavours. The Greek salad was colourful, tasty & plentiful. We enjoyed our experience very much. Will definitely be back & sharing our positive experience with friends.
In a time where some restaurants tend to disappoint on menu items or service, this was a very welcomed moment!

Main dishes were not good. Appetizers like salad & spanokopita were okay.

The Branzino & lamb chops were excellent. Started with the chop chop salad (also great). Owner is attentive & welcoming. Prices were extremely reasonable for the high quality( double elsewhere like milos). Thank you for everything 🙏

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!

The food:
I ordered black sea bass & it was not tasty at all.
Also Greek salad was too bad (some sort of BIG tomatoes & that's it!) & not tasty.

Amount:
It was supposed to be 2.2lb but it was like 1lb or less! I went for dinner & i was hungry after restaurant, so i ate at home (I am not fat at all). I paid 60$ for nothing!

Service:
I was waiting very long time for food.
At last, since i was not satisfied, i paid low amount of tip. The waiter was too rude & asked me to change the bill!! so then i did it.

I went there on a Sunday night with my wife to celebrate our anniversary. Couldn't have chosen a better place! We started with a huge greek salad & a delicious grilled octopus. For main course, we followed our waiter's suggestion & had swordfish & lambchops; the plates were delicious except for the side of steamed vegetables that my wife & I didn't really care for.
When done, the owner of the place was kind enough to send us dessert for our celebration. Nice people, great food.
