Was there for a routine dinner upon return from our vacation April 10th. As always, food was delicious! Was a Saturday night, restaurant was full. Niko served us. He is one of the youngest servers I have been served by to date. Hands down, best service to date! Way to go Niko!
Marathon 1 de mes top 10! Jamais déçu tellement javais hate de manger jai completement oublier prendre en photo mon plat principale, javais pris l'assiette gyro au poulet & un dessert a l'oreo
Placed our order at 4:30pm & it was picked up at 5:00pm complete with no errors. A bit too many onions in the Greek salads we ordered but other than that all the Souvlaki Plates were delicious.
Wowww , what an amazing tasting food, gyro chicken is outstanding, portions are generous & price is fair. Thank you for the kind service as well. Not pushy. Merci beaucoup, c'était incroyablement bon. On revient bientôt c'est sur! Jerome & Camila
Marathon Decarie is our family's go-to restaurant for delicious Greek food that is fast & well priced. The gyros & & souvlaki are fantastic. The staff are excellent. On our last visit I forgot my wallet, & when I called, the manager, he went to look, found it & kept it for me until I returned Amazing & very much appreciated!
Always fresh Greek taverna style food. Wonderful staff with attentative & pompt service. Enjoyed the chicken souvlaki pita player & large gyro platter with my spouse. The honey balls with nuts - a true dessert delight to finish the night. Its busy which is good but can get loud during peak hours. Free parking & easy access off of Decarie Express Way.
Food is delicious, wait staff is always friendly. However, the portions have really shrunk in the past couple of years. Disappointing to be getting less of that delicious Marathon salad than I did a few years ago
Très très bon ,portion généreuse avec plein de bons goût & qualités des assiettes.Service excellent.Beaucoup de personnes savent que C est bon ,alors beaucoup de gens ,beaucoup de bruit.....mais cela vaut le détour....✨✨
I popped in looking for a decent quality gyro at a fair price. I paid $14 for a chicken pita gyro with fries & a drink. The freshness, taste & obvious attention to quality is superb. This is probably the best lunch deal anywhere in Montreal. Add free parking & the fact that it's close to Walmart, Addison Electronics & other stores & it's about as great a deal as I've come across in Montreal.
