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.
This is one of the only restaurants Iwould say I goto regularly. I usually go for lunch whether on weekdays or weekends & the service & food are consistently top-notch. This place has good quality food & quick service. The staff actually look like they are enjoying their work environment. I would recommend this place to anyone that wants a great no fuss, but excellent quality Greek meal. Also, if you're in a rush, they will get you in & out quickly.
Usually very good & consistent. Now they changed the bread from thick garlic toast to pita & the iconic salad dressing is no longer the same. That's like when Coke changed their recipe. It ruined a great thing. & on this occasion we arrived to pick up our order but they had forgotten one plate so we had to wait & since the rest was ready, everything was cold. The salad dressing change is really the biggest disappointment.

Still my favorite place, We always do take out for family events or comfort food. Sadly, the restaurant is not packed the way it was before covid. I do wish them all the success they can handle.
I actually prefer this marathons over the one in Laval, it has more room & bigger portions. Even though I live in Laval, I drive here for when im craving marathons.
Always a great time going to this restaurant whether it be for lunch or dinner it's always very good. The portions for what you pay are worth it & service is good.
Service was fast but they're absolutely not rushing you out the door. Fantastic restaurant with great food & excellent service. I would highly recommend this place.

We were here last night & were lucky to have been served by Elektra. Electra was extremely helpful, kind & thoughtful to our needs, making all our experience a very pleasant one. Food is good but with such an experience, it became great! Place was clean & decent. Customer Service made the entire difference!
