Best Greek grill in Montreal, since 1973 ! We've been coming for years & never disappoints.
The rib steak is truly amazing, tender & expertly grilled. It's served with sautéed mushrooms, chunky home fries, & a huge Greek salad.
Don't forget their calamari & tender lamb chops.
Special thanks to Jimmy & Peter, for the exceptional service.
This is a landmark in Montreal, & truly worth a trip to Park Extension. There may be lineups, but it's worth it.

Note : Cash only, but there's an ATM onsite.

As an Asian, this was my first time ever trying Greek food,& honestly, it's some of the best food I've ever had! I always thought Greek food might be a bit dry, but this was the total opposite: everything was juicy, the meat was so tender, & it tasted amazing. The fries were perfectly crispy, & the food came out really quickly too. The staff were super friendly, & honestly, just writing this review is making me want to go back already 😭.

*edit: unfortunately like many other good restaurants the food has changed here. Not sure if it's new chefs but the food doesn't even taste like Greek food anymore. Feels salty & tastes like heavily doused in Montreal steak spice & other strange flavors. The pitas aren't even wrapped properly, like someone who never made a pita before. It's sad because the service staff is so nice & it's a staple in the community. Hopefully it will get better again like to used to be.

Always the the best chicken/porc souvlaki & calamari. When most restaurants are giving smaller portions, lesser quality, Marvens doesn't change their portions, freshness & flavors! The service is always great at takeout . Keep it up!

Very tasty food. Even with the higher prices it's still ok because you're getting real food!

They need to wrap their pitas with wax paper or something. It's a wet mess! One layer of wrapping is not enough for takeout. But still yummy!

Been eating here for years...Porc souvlaki pita or stick is great! Big portion, good flavour & lean but soft. Calamari is great when it's hot & crispy & the oil doesn't taste fishy... same goes for the fries. Chicken gyro is very good too. The lamb gyro needs improvement...they need to slice it a lot thinner & it should be leaner. Overall would definitely recommend.

After 12 years since my last visit, it is still a very good place for calamari plus extra fresh Greek salad. I promised to go back more often.
