There are a choice between pork, lamb, chicken or even vegetarian souvlaki. Other dishes are also available at Marathon Souvlaki.
Marathon Souvlaki reads like a Montreal Greek staple known for fresh, flavorful food, generous portions and solid value, with the Marathon salad and tzatziki singled out as must haves and the grilled meats reliably juicy and well seasoned. The menu covers gyro, souvlaki, calamari, and pita plates, and the food often arrives hot and quick, making it a popular choice for families and casual meals. Service is repeatedly described as friendly, attentive and efficient, though a few reviews note crowding, noise, or slow moments during peak hours, and some have reported inconsistency in meat quality or salad freshness at times.

Overall Marathon Souvlaki is seen as a dependable and affordable option for Greek cuisine in Montreal, delivering a welcoming atmosphere and reliable flavors that keep regulars coming back, even as opinions differ on certain dishes and days.
Very friendly staff. We went just before closing & food still tasted fresh. They did not rush us to finish or to leave. Excellent experience. Will be back.

Food is always fresh & delicious. & the service is so great that My husband says, let's go eat at Maria's! She's a great waitress, makes us feels like we're eating at her home.
Been going to marathon Décarie for over 20 years. Food is great, ambience & service is delightful. One of the nicest servers is Maria. She has been there for many years & had the privilege of being served by her once again on my most recent visit. Pleasant & friendly! Great job.
