Review Summary

Marathon Souvlaki is widely praised for flavorful Greek cuisine, generous portions, and good value whether dining in or ordering takeout. The meat is described as well cooked on the grill, with standout tzatziki, fresh salads, and a house dressing that many find delicious. Service is generally fast and friendly, contributing to a lively, family friendly atmosphere, though a few reviews note it can be noisy or busy and occasionally service slows down. Some comments mention changes to the bread, extra charges for tzatziki, or variability between visits, but overall the food remains fresh, satisfying, and consistently high quality. The restaurant is seen as a go-to for authentic Greek staples and has a longstanding reputation as a reliable favorite in the area.

Amazing greek restaurant but for some reason they changed the bread , would've paid extra to get the old bread instead of the basic pita one they now serve, its a shame because otherwise its 5 stars! It's more of a personal opinion than a negative feedback , but would love to see an option to have it back on the menu someday!

We like Marathon Souvlaki because it's easy & convenient, & the food is good. It's not the best Greek food you'll ever try, but it's decent for the price & the type of restaurant. We're always happy with the food, & the portions are great for the price.

Hands down the BEST souvlaki I have ever had! It's not a secret that my favourite meal is chicken, rice & salad & this was next level. The meat was cooked absolutely perfectly. We ordered a spare skewer of pork which was so tender! The Marathon salad dressing was delicious as was the rice. We also ordered the tzatziki which came with this beautifully toasted pita drizzled with olive oil & Greek seasoning. Hubby had the pork gyro which was massive! My plate was huge & I could barely finish it. I can see why this place has been open for so many years; it's a gem & I look forward to returning!

Group of 3. Dinner at 530ish. Right from walking in the door greeted immediately. Seated. Water to table. Service is amazing. We all ordered the chicken souvlaki platter. 2 with 1 skewer, 1 with 2 skewers. Was a big plate of food that comes with rice, potatoes & salad. All the ingredients were fresh. Highly recommend this place if you are in Laval & have a craving for Greek Food. 3 ate very well for $70 including tip.

I've been going there for over nine years now, never disappointed. It feels like a mini-vacation for me while waiting for my order; the Greek music, the friendly staff-nothing to complain about. Simply the best!

Great Greek Chicken Gyro plate with delicious Marathon Salad & crispy fries. You cannot go wrong with a Large plate of Chicken Gyro. Good portion of chicken.
I highly recommend!!!

Went on a dinner date to this location during the holidays & although the booths are somewhat cramped, decor is well done services excellent & food quality is top-notch authentic Greek. Chicken souvlaki, taramasalata & tzatziki are awesome. Was not impressed with their fries, store bought frozen crinkle cut… which is why they only got 4 stars. Otherwise, incredible experience. Tarama was so good it didn't make it to the picture :-D

Super fast & friendly service at lunch time. Restaurant is clean. I wish the patatoes would be original Greek food but overall very happy.

This place has not changed in like 30 years - & that's a good thing. Still, for my money, the best tzatiki in town. Portions are ginormous, it's an old school Laval Greek family restaurant. Parking is a bit of a pain. Service is fine, though could do without the annoyed look when asking for modifications. Also free refills on the sift drinks would be appreciated. The pitas, salads & pikilia are all fantastic.
