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.

EDIT The prices have gone up from 12,75$ to 20$ for the souvlaki pita plate & the quality has downgraded. Tiny piece of feta (today it was 2mm thick) less vinaigrette sauce, less black olives, etc even the candy at the end. We used to come often but we cannot afford to come as often & we now share a plate & buy a second pita. .......... This is our comfort food. Delicious greek food, affordable (which is rare nowadays) & quick service. I always have the souvlaki (pork) plate with Marathon salad & half & half (rice/potatoes). If you prefer to have the greek salad, the tomatoes are so fresh & tasty, you won't be disappointed. The only downsides to the Laval location are the parking (very limited) & the A/C is too cold (we're always freezing).

This place is so amazing. The staff is super friendly, the place is very clean & the food is incredible. Coming from someone who's greek herself, this is authentic Greek food & tastes so delicious. The meat melts on your tongue & the Calamari is a 10/10. I definitely recommend this place if you're looking for great greek food.

Big let down. Grew up in the area & this was the go to place for Greek. The food was sub par & nothing tasted like it used to be. Rush rush place the food on a plate & serve the customer. It's about volume now at this their first family run & owned restaurant. I could not believe it. I left over most of my food as it was it even tasty & the protein in the souvlakis we ordered had fat in it as well. Can't believe they are still doing (lots) of business. Have people lost their taste buds or don't know any better & what happened to the lovely family that used to work the line & cook amazing food What is going on here that the dollar supersedes quality & taste etc. Anyway much better places to eat like Greektown grill.

The place is overall good , the atmosphere is not great, clean but feels like a cafeteria then a cozy greek restaurant, staff are respectful & attentive overall, the food is also overall good ( had the chicken pita & Calamari), the quantity is not at all generous, normally if it is high price like that it is justified by the large quantity served, not the case ( they must either reduce the prices or at least give a nice generous quanity & not skimp on ingredients) , I am often at other greek restaurants & others in general & I do see higher prices like that but it is always justified at least by much larger quantities, the greek salad is very small & you feel they are skimping on some ingredients e.g. papers & the feta cheese is so thin & almist any olive oil & literally one olive & it is spread thin across the plate to fill plate space, the pita was good on the other hand, the chicken is nice & well marinateand & the tatzeki was very good as well. The Calamari was good but also small quantity for the price. Conclusion it is too expensive for what it is.
