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.
We ordered from this restaurant today. The plates we got were soooo good. Generous portions, great prices. The quality of food was amazing. Enough tzatziki sauce on our pitas. & the salads, wow. Tomato slices big & juicy. Enough dressing. Delivery time was good too. Will definitely order from there again! Thank you for making delicious food!
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!
c'étais bien! Un peu dispendieux pour une assiette pita gyro mais il sont bons! Il manque unpeu de poulet dans les pitas pour un 5 étoiles mais les à côtés sont des portions généreuses!

Hadn't been here for some time. I didn't enjoy what we bought on this last visit. I was used to better. I'm addition, I don't know if this is the norm, but $20 for 2 chicken gyros was a little too expensive to my taste. Wasn't impressed this time around.
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 went here with my family this past weekend for my mother's 60th birthday, & it was such a treat. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome & well taken care of. The food was amazing, & you can really tell the team cares about both the food & the experience. We're already looking forward to our next visit!
