Freshly grilled meats seasoned with Mediterranean herbs serve as the foundation, accompanied by traditional sides like creamy tzatziki and crisp vegetable salads.

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.

Hands down some of the best Lamb Chops I've had in Montreal in a long time, I selfishly want to keep this little slice of Heaven to myself but had to share & the Calamari so good Dimitri & the Boys must have put their whole foot in it, you can't go wrong with Marven's

★☆☆☆☆ (1 star)

Unfortunately, this was a very disappointing experience.

I called to order what I believed were five chicken souvlaki sandwiches & one order of calamari. Instead, I received five chicken skewers with a small salad-no pita or sandwich. When I called the restaurant, I was told that I should have specifically asked for'pita.' In my opinion, if there is any ambiguity, the person taking the order should clarify it with the customer rather than making assumptions.

To make matters worse, I drove 30 minutes from Laval to pick up my order because the restaurant was about to close, & then another 30 minutes back home. I spent an hour just picking up the food, only to discover when I got home that the order was not what I had intended to order.
The calamari was also cold & did not taste good.

I paid about $85 for this meal, & when I called to explain the problem, I didn't receive an apology or any attempt to resolve the situation. I was simply told that the mistake was mine.

Good customer service means not only taking an order, but also confirming unclear requests & making a reasonable effort to resolve problems when they occur. Unfortunately, neither the food quality nor the customer service met my expectations, & I cannot recommend this restaurant based on my experience.

The lamb chops were delicious & definitely worth trying. The food & service were a little slow, but the quality of the food made up for the wait. Overall, I had a good experience & would still come back again.

Prices have gone up, 4 ppl ~200$ is on the steep side. No alcohol, but we did get the 2x lamb chops. The waiter was in a hurry & not very nice. The food is still amazing so yeah its worth to go there maybe 1once a year in my case.

Une très belle découverte dans Parc-Extension !
Chez Marven's, tout est au rendez-vous : de grosses portions généreuses, une cuisine authentique pleine de saveurs, & une ambiance intime & chaleureuse qui donne envie de revenir.
Nous étions 5 personnes & le service était rapide, sans compromis sur la qualité. Le serveur était super sympathique & attentionné, ce qui rend l'expérience encore plus agréable.
Un endroit parfait pour bien manger & se sentir comme à la maison. Je recommande sans hésiter !
