Tout était fabuleux! La nourriture est excellente, sérieux on est allez au souvlaki bar de Terrebonne il y a une semaine & c'était tellement pas mangeable, donc j'avais vraiment besoin de faire réconcilier avec la bouffe grecque & WOW! Mission réussie! En plus pour le dessert j'avais trop oublié de dire à la serveuse que je ne tolère pas la canelle au cas où & il y en avait sur le dessert. Aucun problème elle a repris & m'en a amené un autre Subito Presto merci beaucoup!
Not the same food anymore, I ordered gyro forget it I feel like I eat shawerma, not the same meat too salty too much cut corners, with it I eat Greek salad 4 cucumber 2 olives couple slices of onions & 1 very thin slice of cheese the rest tomato & potatoes they reduced too much before was perfect portion in the plate, I think son took over & not the same food anymore
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.
