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.
Been coming here for years & the quality of food has always been amazing. Great prices delicious food & great service. Take out or dine in, the quality of food & service is always great. One of my favorite restaurants & has been since nearly ten years now!
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.

Nice & authentic Greek food served in large clean resteraunt with very helpfull staff... our group had many of the appetizers & pita sandwiches & found them all well prepared & tasty.
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.
This is a resto where I am going almost every week. One thing that I realized is that you don't receive tzatziki with your dish, even this is a greek resto & is one of the main ingredients. Every time when i asked, i was charged. You need to order for that & pay. I never heard something more stupid, about the missed item, is because some people they don't like. This was a good joke. I am very disappointed because this is my favorite & i am going to greek resto in special for tzatziki. I do not like to pay extra, so from now I will go to Souvlaki Bar & Souvlaki Authentique where i can ask how much i want. & the pork souvlaky felt as beef, very tough to eat. Very, very disappointed, & my friend too. I should give 1 star for all the tzatziki that I paid without to know.
First time trying out this restaurant, & my comment is "WOW." The food was delicious. The customer service we received from Angelo was excellent. He was very friendly & gave great recommendations on what to eat. I hope he can serve us again next time.
