About

Marven's offers a straightforward exploration of authentic Greek culinary traditions through a menu defined by classic preparations. Freshly grilled meats seasoned with Mediterranean herbs serve as the foundation, accompanied by traditional sides like creamy tzatziki and crisp vegetable salads. The environment maintains a functional focus on the ingredients themselves rather than excessive ornamentation. Signature offerings include succulent souvlaki skewers and hearty platters designed to showcase fundamental flavor profiles. Guests encounter a consistent approach to preparation that emphasizes simple techniques and reliable product sourcing. This establishment prioritizes the execution of standard dishes, ensuring that core components like tender pita bread and salty feta cheese remain central to every plate served. The result is a pragmatic representation of regional cooking that relies on the natural compatibility of high quality staples.

Fantastic food, lively atmosphere without being too noisy, amazing service. We had the lamb chops, calamari, & a small Greek salad. I'm already looking forward to our next visit!

The service is quick & friendly. We ordered calamari, lamb chops & chicken souvlaki.
Calamari was a big portion, delicious & tender! Must get as everyone in the restaurant had a plate on their table. Lamb chops were also very good, moist & flavorful. The chicken souvlaki wasn't that great as I found it to be dry, wish I ordered the rib steak instead. Every table seemed to have gotten basket of bread but we didn't & we didn't realized until halfway through our meal.

Would come back next time we're in Montreal to try the steak & definitely back for the calamari!

Simply amazing!
We had the Chicken Skewers, Pork Skewers, Lamb Chops (so tender & perfectly cooked), & fried Calamari, along with all the classic sides. Everything was full of flavor & cooked just right. Big kudos to the kitchen staff, & a heartfelt thanks to the service team for always making me feel at home whenever I visit.

I think this restaurant has gone downhill. I also prefer the pre Reno woodpanel 60s vibe. Music was too loud, but that could be a personal preference. one of the waiters (not ours) was talking about personal things with other waiters using vulgar language which was pretty low class (I wouldn't mind that if it was some sort of hole in the wall greasy spoon but I'm spending a hundred bucks on dinner I want a little bit of professionalism ). The Caesar salad was pretty pathetic (maybe a 2 on 10) & they gave us the main meal a minute or two after serving the salad (which would have been an issue if we had wanted to finish the salad but in this case it wasn't). I would not recommend the loose gyro plate, i found the cut to be too thick but that can be a personal preference. The lamb chops looked good but passed on that when tzatziki was an $8 add-on. In retrospect I probably should have splurged for the lamb chops & maybe this would have given a better experience.

I heard that this place was so good & they did not disappoint. Enjoyed the lamb chops. So flavorful & large portions. The calamari appetizer was surprisingly good - perfectly cooked & not the usual chewy squid texture.
