The best calamari ever! Lamb chops are excellent. They only accept cash.

Fried calamari were decent but lacked tenderness. The meat was very salty & not very tender. Caesar salad: average . Greek salad: good. The service was perfect. It's a loud place so hearing my friends wasn't easy. The only beer is Greek & there is no alcohol free beer. Cash only.

Marven's was a fantastic experience. From the quick service to the vibe it was amazing. The server was nice & the food was perfect.The only thing to note is that they only take cash & there is an ATM machine downstairs.

Big portions, everything tasted great. Only downside is that it's cash only, so either think ahead & bring cash or you risk paying ATM fees (one in the basement)

It's stuck in time that place. Don't get me wrong....good food but you have to go with the times. Kinda sketch when u don't accept any sort of credit or payment method other then cash. In the old days...sure cash was the way to go but in 2024...mmm. Overall it's good food.

We were for lunch but after the lunch rush! Totally recommended for the time & the food. Attn: CASH only. Food: flavors are on point, family meal flavors done right. Yes, price is high but portions are huge. We have to take some leftovers to-go. Calamari is a must but also huge so sharing among 2 or 3 friends is better. Steaks are also humongous, prepare your stomach well in advance. Sauce: traditional sweet & tomato-ey sauce on the table (see pics) are a must with calamari. Drink: Fix beer is a nice larger that would cut the greasiness from food. Vibe: small, cozy, wooden cottage vibe. Very familial & local. Super attentive waiters. Dine there & walk to parc Jarry for digestion on a nice sunny day will complete your afternoon with relaxation.

Impossibly crowded restaurant which, unfortunately , doesn't create a good first impression when you are waiting in the doorway for your table. Staff does a remarkable job trying to accommodate every arrival. The food is good, your basic chicken, pork, or lamb on a pita or in a platter, but I have to ask myself is it worth the wait? Cash only & no reservations makes little sense & seems to accommodate the owner more than the customers. Don't think I will be back for awhile.
