Marathon Souvlaki in Dollard-des-Ormeaux specializes in fresh, tender meat souvlakis. Marathon Souvlaki has also won an award for the best souvlaki by the Gazette. There are a choice between pork, lamb, chicken or even vegetarian souvlaki. Other dishes are also available at Marathon Souvlaki.
Overall, Marathon Souvlaki is described as a reliable casual Greek spot with generous portions, good value, and consistently tasty dishes like calamari, chicken souvlaki, pork gyro, and the signature Marathon salad, with frequent praise for fast service and friendly staff. The dining options work well for both takeout and sit-down meals, and many reviews highlight the lively, busy atmosphere that makes it a popular go-to, especially in the West Island locations. While the food is largely celebrated, there are occasional critiques about busy or noisy hours, occasional slower or uneven service, and rare notes about changes in portion size or other quirks such as charges for sauces or being asked to wrap up after paying. Still, these are outweighed by repeated recommendations and the sense that Marathon Souvlaki offers dependable, flavorful Greek fare at generous portions and reasonable prices, making it a staple for regulars and newcomers alike.
I'm addicted to their rice. It's comfort food. Just had it with a chicken stick & house salad. The chicken is tender, juicy & succulent. Sometimes it's nice to eat out & feel you're eating healthy.
Rice is mid city, get the potatoes instead. Cheesecake is whatever, wouldn't order it again, just fine. Chicken souvlaki is good, not dry & good grill flavour. Good portion of Greek salad. Good service from the staff 👍

We celebrated my brother's birthday at Marathon Restaurant & had a fantastic experience. The food was good, we ordered the calamari, chicken brochette, & souvlaki, all of which were fresh & full of flavour. What really stood out, though, was the service. Peter, our server, was exceptional: attentive, friendly, & made sure everything was perfect throughout the evening.
Overall, a great place for a special occasion or a relaxed night out. We'll definitely be back.
We eat there all the time! Delicious food & quick service & affordable too! We always get the chicken brochette plate & add a souvlaki. The calamari is delicious. I have no pictures because I start eating the moment the food gets infront of me. Shout out to Thomas, he was an excellent server & so good at his job. Thomas noticed when I was picking at my tooth & got me a tooth pick to remove the food stuck!!!!!! Thank YOU!
Cheap fast Greek Food is the name of the game here. The chicken in the gyro was dry & the Greek salad was bland. I like to cook & I feel that I could do it better myself at home. It's saving grace is that the food came quick & it's affordable.
Went there a few days ago & ordered the chicken pita gyro plate & the fried calamari . The chicken in the gyro was super dry & not fresh so they put so much seasoning to make it seem better. Used to love coming here with friends. Maybe it was an off night but i was really disappointed.
Ordered to go was wrong Ordered 2 chicken plate Got pork large gyro had no sauce on the side Very disappointed that I had to throw out pork next time I will eat in so I can return order Laval location is much better It was 58 plus dollars wasted
We have been eating here for several years. Always friendly service. The food is delicious. Generous portions. I love their chicken stick platter! Their chicken pita platter is just as good!
Hi! The Chicken Brochette plate was the best one I've eaten! We shared calamari, which was delicious, & they began the meal with a garlic bread appetizer, enough for everyone! The service was excellent. All of our meals arrived together. Every order was at our convenience. Explanations were clear. Water & drink service was continual & they had unique three-way water jugs to serve from anywhere on the table by the waiter. The Brochette was among the highest priced dishes but it was well worth it. I could only eat half! I took the rest home in the nicest, reusable, washable box I've ever seen. I thought I saw a baby Nipsey, too. So cute! He probably had nothing to do with it, but live on! Happy 90th birthday, Bernard's Mami!
Fantastic chicken plate with rice, choice of marathon or Greek salad & fries. Went there for lunch with my husband & two teenage boys. The lunch menu includes a drink as well. The price is perfect for the amount of tasty, fresh food you get. Beyond amazing customer service. The service was impressive in today's world. I highly recommend this place.

Went here for lunch, well worth it. These are huge portions for the price - I got the chicken pita with a salad, some potatoes & rice (you can request for half/half). All of the Greek flavors seem to explode in your mouth once you dive in. Waiter was polite too.
Food & service was top notch! We tried out several items such as Lamb Chops, chicken brochette, Greek Salad, fried cheese, Calamari, chicken souvlaki in pita & we ordered the pitcher for the coke. All items tasted great! Food was served on time. Our server was very good too! Definitely recommend!
