A family Greek restaurant that emphasis in quality , large portions & great taste of food . One of the best Calamari/Squid dishes I had in a Greek restaurant , there are planets of choices to chose for .
Is more a family oriented type of restaurant that a fancy one ,more like a family type of gathering place .
I highly recommend it if you like quality Greek dishes .
The price of dishes is great for the quality & portion size . Takes at least 20 min before the social gathering as sometimes is a wait of 15-25 min .
As is such popular place !

fantastique!

had lunch at Marven's in Montreal, & it was nothing short of exceptional. I'd heard wonderful things about the place- Anthony Bourdain himself visited, & I can now see precisely why it has earned such a reputation.

We ordered their famous calamari fry, lamb chops, & steaks, & every single dish was absolutely spot on. The calamari was perfectly crisp & flaky without being greasy, the lamb chops were beautifully seasoned & cooked to perfection, & the steak was tender, flavourful, & honestly one of the best I've had in the city.

The service was warm, attentive, & effortless in that distinctly charming way that instantly makes you feel welcome. Despite how busy they were, the staff took the time to ensure everything was to our liking, & the atmosphere felt both lively & relaxed.

It's easy to understand why Marven's is so beloved by locals & visitors alike. A truly memorable meal & the sort of place you're glad you made the effort to find.
Highly recommended- an absolute gem in Montreal.

I usually go to Marvens for their famous calamari. The restaurant is pretty consistent with menu. Most things taste the as it did 20+ years ago! I just had one bad experience with the calamari & got served a bad batch while treating my date to a birthday lunch (worst timing possible). However this Traditional Spot Is still my go to for calamari so I would still recommend it regardless of my one bad experience. Btw did mention the calamari is too good to resist!

This is the absolute best restaurant in Montreal. Food, portioning, & appetizers are all amazing! I ordered steak & in my opinion, it's done best here at Marvens with the Greek style. Highly recommend for those who are traveling in Montreal.

Edit: I finally went back after 1 year of waiting. It is way better this time around. I would love to come back here as much as I can throughout my life.

STILL ONE OF THE BEST!
I've already given Marven's a 5-star review before, but I feel the need to update it because every time I come back with my family, the experience remains just as excellent. The service is consistently great, the staff is super friendly, & even though the place gets pretty crowded at times, the atmosphere stays warm & enjoyable. Plus, parking is never a hassle you can always find a spot around the block.

Now, let's talk about the food. We had the Lamb Chops, Salmon, Steak, Chicken, & of course their signature dish the Calamari with their famous Secret Sauce. Absolutely delicious! As always, the meal starts with some bread, followed by a salad of your choice, & then your main course.

The flavors never disappoint. My family & I enjoy every visit, & it has become one of our go-to spots for a satisfying meal.

If you haven't tried Marven's yet, I highly recommend it, you won't regret it!

*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.

This is for Marven's DELIVERY option via either UBER EATS or DOOR DASH!! I order the 2 porc souvlaki skewers with Greek salad, rice & potato. First the staff are great at getting the order done fast! Second the presentation is excellent, u feel like u are getting exactly what u would expect if a restaurant is treating u right when delivering food to u! the salad comes in it's own container, very nice looking, with a transparent lid allowing u to see the salad which is a nice touch, in a separate container, which again is very nice looking, u have the two pork skewers, potato wedges & rice nicely presented! The whole containers food presentation is excellent! Now the food, salad is fresh, large & excellent & comes with a lovely vinaigrette. The 2 pork souvlakis skewers are well cooked & tasty, the rice is perfect, the fries are tasty & perfectly cooked & u get a large serving of each. Add on a very tasty sauce that comes with it which adds a nice zest to the meal. So, excellent quick preparation for delivery, excellent presentation, generous portions & delicious! Highly recommend! The meal also comes with hot bread in tinfoil.
