Please keep this place as wonderful as it has always been. ❤? One thing that often happens when a restaurant becomes busier & more successful is that some of the little details that made people love it in the first place can start to disappear, & I truly hope that doesn't happen here.
Tonight, unfortunately, the service felt a little colder than usual. There were no knives provided for the meat, & the calamari wasn't as crispy, flavorful, or delicious as I remember it being.
I also noticed something concerning regarding hygiene. The waitresses seemed to be handling dirty dishes & then clean items without an obvious opportunity to wash or sanitize their hands in between. At the very least, having hand sanitizer readily available for the staff would be reassuring, especially when they are moving quickly between clearing tables & serving food.

Another issue tonight was an extremely loud table that was disturbing the atmosphere for practically everyone around them. Of course people should be able to enjoy themselves, laugh & have a good time, but there is a point where it becomes disruptive to the entire restaurant. I was surprised that no one from the staff or management politely addressed it.

I'm sharing all of this because I genuinely like this restaurant. I drove an hour to come here tonight, & I've recommended this place to many friends. I would really love to see the same warmth, attention to detail, cleanliness, food quality, & pleasant atmosphere that made me want to keep coming back in the first place.

Came here last night to celebrate my wife's 60th birthday. Because we were a group of 12, we will obligated to take a price fixed group menu. It was a five-course meal with multiple shareable dishes. It was by far the best food, service & overall experience that I've had in the past few years.
The Chefs, our waitress, busboys, maitre d' & sommelier were extraordinary in their roles. Our glasses were never empty for too long & our dishes & utensils were changed often. Where certain individuals could not eat certain foods, they they substituted with other options that were just as delicious. All all of this with a friendly genuine smile.
The lighting was low but enough to see our food. The vibe was chill & not too loud where we could have a conversation & be heard.
If we ever make it back to Montreal, we are definitely stopping by again.

Best restaurant in Montreal. It could easily be a great restaurant in Athens, Mykonos, any place in Greece. The atmosphere, the service & music are classy & the dishes are an excellent modern interpretation of traditional Greek recipes.

What a beautiful space. Uniquely Greek, this place has a twist to some of your favorite dishes. Try the spanakopita salad - you won't regret it!

The atmosphere is beautiful, but unfortunately the service completely ruined the experience for me.

From the beginning, the server was unusually pushy & made multiple unnecessary comments throughout the evening that made me genuinely uncomfortable. I had clearly explained that I was on a calorie deficit & asked what lighter options he would recommend. After recommending a few dishes himself, he still continued insisting that what we ordered was'only appetizers' & repeatedly pushed for more food, even after it was obvious we were satisfied with what we had ordered.

What made the experience worse was the attitude behind the comments. There was a very condescending & mocking tone throughout the interaction, especially regarding my food & drink choices. Instead of simply taking the order & letting guests enjoy their evening, there were repeated remarks & expressions that felt judgmental & intrusive.

A server should never make guests feel embarrassed or self-conscious about what they choose to eat or not eat. Whether a table orders a full dinner or just a few dishes & drinks should not affect the quality of the service or the way guests are treated.

The food itself was fine, although the grilled calamari arrived cold. But overall, the lack of tact & professionalism from the service left a really unpleasant impression.
