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.
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.
I have been eating at Marathon Souvlaki for many many years. They started in Chomedey Laval where I lived as a child. The restaurant was small but it had the family, home cooking feel.
The same goes for the location in Dollard-des-Ormeaux. Although it is a bit noisy during the lunch hour, the food is just as delicious as when I was a child. The Pork Gyro is by far, the best in the city. You Must try it.
The lunch specials are amazing. So worth the money. Portions are huge where I had leftovers for dinner.
Service was exceptional. If I could choose more that 5 stars I would.
Will I go back? Absolutely 💯.
Lunch special was basically regular price lol, but we got the gyro plate & pita. Very good 😊 checkout us out at @mtlfoodbros on IG/tik Tok for our review video :)

The place to go for Gyro in the West Island. I live off the island & make it a point to go there for the best gyro. Great service, great staff & reasonable prices. The marathon house salad is amazing too!
Grew up in Montreal & live in Calgary now, but am here for my yearly pilgrimage. Was introduced to Marathon 20 some years ago & always eat there at least once on my return to town. The food is awesome & the portions huge!!!! Ate there tonight with my sister. She had a souvlaki pita , I had the gyro plate...far from disappointed!!!!!! It was great!!!!! Our waiter Martin was also awesome, very friendly, talkative & efficient. Thank you sir. This is one of the best restaurants in Montreal & possible the whole country!!! A must visit!!! Thank you for an unbelievable meal & experience. You guys knock it outta the park every time!!!!! Cant believe there is one bad review.......some people are just complainers.....

Hello Well my family & I have been coming here for over 15 years & always loved the food. Today it is a different story I had ordered online & when I got to the restaurant they said no internet so had to show them my phone order. We ordered gyro plate with salad...got home & we started to eat. The gyro was so tasteless, dry & hard to chew.......rice was not up to the taste we are used to & salad was soggy. Then the bread that came with meal was so hard you could not bite into it. I was shocked to the point we threw most of it out .....it is not the Marathon we have known..........well they have lost my family from ever going back to Marathon again. Shame on this restaurant
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
The staff was so kind ! We came for a pick up , they realized as we were leaving that there was a mistake in the order & ran after us to fix it. Even gave us an extra gyros !😊 really appreciate the food & great service thank you!
Whether you choose to dine in or opt for takeout, you can always expect excellent service & consistently high-quality food. I highly recommend the marathon salad with the gyro pita!

2023: excellent service. Gyro plate was nice. Would be better if the olives in the salad were pitted. Nice dressing. Good portions even for a small platter. 2019: Decent place but highly overrated. Generous proportions & okay service. I like getting take out from here but calling it the best Greek food means you really need to go out more.
This is probably Marathon most chill location. Spacious & full of parking, this place is the ideal spot for a quick lunch or dinner amount friends. Nothing tops a Pork Gyro from Marathon.
