Ciao a tutti, sono italiano e mi reputo un buongustaio. Ieri sera ho avuto il piacere di vivere dei momenti unici, culinari e non solo, in questo magnifico ristorante: accoglienza del personale eccellente, servizio rapidissimo, bontà assoluta dei piatti (qualità e quantità). Aggiungo che da adolescente sono stato con la famiglia in Grecia e ieri dopo tanti anni ho riassaporato dei sapori che avevo perso. Se siete a Montreal non perdetevi questa ghiotta occasione!!!
🩵Complimenti🩵
Se vi trovate in questa parte di Montreal oppure prendete la metro arancione fermata Namur, vi suggerisco di non perdervi la cucina greca di questo ristorante. Piatti curati, abbondanti, eccellenti e personale molto disponibile e gentile.
Da non perdere.
Great Greek food. Can't go wrong at marathons. The staff was great. The food was savory & fresh. Just remember to always ask for extra napkins before inhaling your souvlaki pita because you're gonna be full of tzatziki ans no clean napkins!
My boyfriend & I love everything about this place & food, EXCEPT the fried potatoes. They taste good, look like Ruffles chips, but we prefer authentic Greek style baked potatoes like they serve at Casa Grecque, Au Vieux Duluth & other Greek restaurants. If Marathon gave the OPTION of ruffle style & authentic baked potatoes, they'd make us & everyone else extra happy 😊
Our family has eaten at this location in the past & had a good meal, this week it was not the case.
We ordered the pork gyro lunch plate that comes with a combo of salad, rice /potatoes. The plate was very generous no complaints about portions however, the main part of the meal the gyro was not eatable. The pita bread was very hard,the middle was slightly soft due to the sauce & vegetables toppings.
The pork was completely dried out to the point where it was just tiny dry crunchy pieces.
My husband emptied out his pita, put the meat on his plate & tried to pick pieces out that were edible.
I started to eat it as it was wrapped but gave up & ate the rice & salad. We came to have a gyro for lunch, not sides of salad, potatoes & rice.
I mentioned it to the server who shrugged her shoulders & walked away at this point lunch was a lost cause.
It's unfortunate that this is the experience that we had as we were leaving I noticed other plates being eaten that had plump juicy looking pieces of meat, not rocky hard tiny dried up meat.
It was like we got whatever was left on the bottom of the tray before new meat was cut off of the gyro spit.
It will be a while before we decide to go back there again. The experience really turned us off especially since we politely mentioned it to our server who did not seem to be very concerned.
The house salad was very fresh & the dressing tasty that's about it for our lunch.
J'ai été déçue par le service reçu de la part de la serveuse Maria. Nous avons eu l'impression d'être traités différemment des autres clients.
D'abord, le pain servi en entrée ne nous a pas été offert, alors que toutes les autres tables en recevaient. Ensuite, nos boissons étaient les seules à ne pas être garnies d'une tranche de lime, contrairement à celles des autres clients.
Ce n'est pas la tranche de lime qui change quoi que ce soit pour moi, mais plutôt le principe. En tant que clients, nous nous attendons à recevoir le même service & la même attention que les autres. Cette différence de traitement nous a malheureusement laissé un sentiment de déception.
Great food. Great service & good value for money. The staff are so friendly & kind. It can get a bit noisy when full but doesn't hinder your experience
