Do not order their greek style whole chicken. Tasted boiled then bbq lightly. Barely seasoned. It was awful. We left 4 pieces & did not take the rest home. Yes that's how bad it was. Tzatziki is so so. Salad was pitiful, with soft feta. What remains good is their marvens sauce & good service. But that's not enough to beat competition which is not far from them, see my other review. Wish it was like before years back but it's lost its touch.

Ça fessait un ti-bout que j'avais manger à ce resto... déjà 20 ans que je connais l'endroit .... Moi personnellement , j'ai trouvé qu'il en non perdu calmars non croustillant,salade grecque fromage très mou & non appétissant ...À mon avis ils ont perdu leurs authenticité!! Beaucoup de bannière avec aussi bon menu similaire sont alléchant au même prix & stationnement inclus . À chacun ses goût & par contre très bon service & bonne portions .

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.

"Une expérience culinaire exceptionnelle au Marven's Restaurant ! Les portions généreuses de souvlaki, accompagnées de riz, frites & salade grecque, étaient délicieuses & parfaitement assaisonnées. J'ai été impressionné par la qualité & la fraîcheur des ingrédients utilisés. De plus, le gâteau au fromage était un pur délice, une fin parfaite pour un repas mémorable. Le service était impeccable & l'ambiance chaleureuse. Je recommande vivement ce restaurant à tous les amateurs de cuisine grecque!"

Attentive service & amazing food. The place is pretty small for how popular they are, so expect at least a 20 minute wait during peak hours. The lamb chops are flavorful & tender. Calamari is just lightly breaded & crispy & fresh. Greek salad comes with a block of feta cheese & not just feta crumbles. Highly recommend their pork gyro pita. Very large portion we had so much leftover to bring home.

Classic Greek restaurant in Montreal. The fried calamari appetizer is very good & is enough to feed 4 people. I had the pork souvlaki. It was good but nothing extraordinary. I've had better souvlaki elsewhere. The complimentary bread was also not great. My friends ordered the lamb which was very good. Potato house fries are good as well. The rice & salad were average. Service was nice & fast. There are better Greek restaurants in Montreal in the plateau area but overall not a bad choice.

Average pork souvlaki, meat was overcooked & dry, rice was just ok, the salad came with no dressing. The calamari was good but overall too expensive for the quality

Holy, this place was very fast! The service was great, food came out quick. It's been a few years since I last came here -- the atmosphere is nice with the new updates. We ordered the calamari plate, the baby back ribs & the steak. The salad to start with was very filling we had the greek salad each. The steak with medium rare was cooked to perfection & the ribs were pretty good. In my opinion the rice was a bit bland & they give a lot of fries. Very filling & worth if you're looking for quantity & quality food.

Ordered here in the past for take out & the food is pretty good. Came in for lunch & the menu doesn't say what's included. The server didn't say anything but we asked & there was a choice of salad, rice or fries or both. I would maybe understand if it was busy but it was not. Also they only accepted cash during our visit.
