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.

The restaurant is seen as a go-to for authentic Greek staples and has a longstanding reputation as a reliable favorite in the area.
I ordered for delivery, so I can't comment on the service or atmosphere. However, the food is simply magnificent
- The meat is delicious, well seasoned & full of flavour
- Their Tzatziki is perfect
- The food (Gyros platters or pita) are the best in town
Generous quantity of food
This THE best place to get gyros or souvlaki. Flavor is always right, you have to be a little patient because they cook your food on the charcoal as you order it, but the wait is really worth it.

Consistently delicious & quality food. The menu has a decent variety of protein choices (mainly chicken, beef, lamb/pork, & calamari). Fast & friendly service, busy atmosphere. Recommend reservations for large groups, the place fills up fast.

First time I ate there was over 20yrs ago, they are one of most popular restaurants in Laval as they are known for the amazing greek salad, dressings & meats!
Plusieurs personnes ma dit que c'était une excellente place pour mange du grecque ,mais j'ai trouvé les repas très normal,Un restaurant grecque qui n'ont pas leur fameuses patates grecque & qu'ils te donne des frites à la place en plus de pas donnez de tzatzaki qu'il faut payez en extra Loll je n'en revenais tout simplement pas !! Pour l'ambiance aussi c'est très ordinaire ,tous tassé comme des sardines collé en mangeant ,allez au toilette c'est presque une épopée. Mais les serveurs/serveuses rien à dire excellent service !
