Amazing place with authentic Mediterranean food & excellent service. Food: all the meals were really delicious, with the star being the spanakopita salad, extraordinary. The main dish, lamb, was tender, seared to perfection, & served with a jus & thyme oil. The dessert, fantastic. All meals divided by 4 people, lots of food, great value. Left pretty full! Service: our server, Josh, fantastic & knowledgeable, attentive, & quick. Sommelier: great recommendations all through the night, definitely go with Geek wines. Atmosphere: really brings us back to Santorini. The ambiance, the music, the seating. Extremely well thought out layout. The bars are snazzy too. Overall: highly recommended, delicious fresh food & authentic options, excellent service & ambience. Will go back certainly to try the moussaka.

Great ambiance, service & delicious food. Everything is made with fresh ingredients & you taste that. Lots of flavor in every bite. They have a very nice wine selection also. Because they're in the building with a hotel they're open when other places may not be. Definitely worth a visit & we'll be back.

Stepping into the restaurant, one is immediately transported to a charming taverna. The decor strikes a perfect balance between authenticity & retro chic, with vintage decor & music setting a lively yet nostalgic mood.The menu is a delightful homage to Greece's culinary traditions, with a modern twist. Each dish is a testament to the authentic flavors of Greece, crafted from fresh, locally-sourced ingredients. Standout dishes include the grilled octopus, tender & perfectly seasoned, & the moussaka, which is rich, creamy, & comforting. The tzatziki is a revelation - creamy, garlicky, & refreshing, it's the perfect companion to warm, freshly-baked pita bread. 🤩 our new favourite spot

The staff is excellent & the service truly amazing with a great attention to detail. The food is of high quality with quality choices & fresh products. An amazing food experience in Old Montreal.
