Marathon Souvlaki in the Décarie district of Montreal, specializes in fresh, tender meat souvlakis. Marathon Souvlaki has also won an award for the best souvlaki by the Gazette. There are a choice between pork, lamb, chicken or even vegetarian souvlaki. Other dishes are also available at Marathon Souvlaki.
Overall, Marathon Souvlaki comes across as a reliable, family friendly Greek spot with fresh, flavorful food, generous portions, and friendly, efficient service at a fair price. The menu staples like gyros, souvlaki, pita dishes, and the marathon salad are repeatedly praised, with many noting fast service, easy parking, and a welcoming atmosphere. Some reviews mention moments of inconsistency in quality or portion sizes over the years, louder peak hours, and occasional takeout experiences that aren’t perfect, but the restaurant remains a popular go-to for casual Greek meals.
$19.50 for a chicken brochette. A little pricy. Today December 15, 2023 ordered take out. Thanks for the gallon of salad dressing on my salad. With take out you would usually separate the sauce.
This place has never disappointed & the food quality is 🔥! I always keep it simple in my order for my plates: marathon salad & half-half (token potatoes fries & pilaf rice). All the pita sandwiches are worth the bucks & the staff are very friendly. I always go to the one on Decarie & will never change the formula. p.s. My mom love this restaurant & keep asking me to take her back. 😎 Try it & you will love it/ L' essayer c'est l'adopter... ✌️

My significant other was craving Greek food so we decided to make the trip to marathons. Our waiter was attentive & service was quick & good. I am glad we came. We ate well at a very decent price.
I have been going to the des Jockeys location for about two decades & the food has been consistently delicious. Last week we had exceptional service from George. He was super attentive & helpful & so funny! That kind of first rate service deserves a shoutout. Thank you so much George!
My initial review was Good value always good service, the portion-size has diminished very significantly, no doubt resulting in unhappy patrons who tip less which is reflected in the diminished quality of service.

Frite qui ressemble plus à des patates déjeuner d'un fast food cheap ! Sauce souvlaki passable pita trop remplie de sauce .service malheureusement nous avons eu une dames qui ne semblais plus avoir envie de travailler .....je n'y retournerai plus
Came a couple of times already. Food is pretty good, price is reasonable, & portions are filling. The souvlaki, lamb chops & fries are delicious. Really recommend the marathon salad over the Greek salad, which mainly consisted of tomatoes (?!). Rice tend to be a bit undercooked to my taste. Lunch menu is available with some of the same food, but a bit cheaper.
It's Clean - it's bright - I'm pretty sure I heard some Greek music playing in the background but I could be mistaken 🤔😁 Service was fast but they're absolutely not rushing you out the door & they do check to make sure you're enjoying your meal & top up your water & coffee - Very Hospitable Environment with Mouthwatering Food that brought me back to Greece & all with Great Service - Thank you George!! You're the Best!

Thanks to our waiter Alex! Great service. We are not from Montreal & it’s our second time around here & the food is fantastic. Lots on the plate & the pita are very good.
Fantastic restaurant with great food & service! I went here for brunch on a Saturday & had an excellent souvlaki pita plate. The fries were good, the salad was good (although was maybe a bit too heavy on the tomatoes); & the pita was excellent. I would highly recommend this place!

Nous sommes arrives vers 22h, ils étaient en train de fermer. Mais la cuisine nous a donné un repas bien fait. Les serveurs nettoyaient & ils n'ont jamais essayer de nous pousser vers la sortie
