Marven's is widely praised as a Park Extension staple with a warm, family atmosphere, where generous portions and consistently bold Greek flavors like fried calamari, lamb chops, souvlaki and rib steak have made it a go to for locals and visitors alike. Reviewers emphasize fast, attentive service and a lively, welcoming vibe, even when the house is busy, with a wood burning grill adding a distinctive char to many dishes and a signature sauce that patrons love to smother on their plates. The menu is described as reliable and affordable for the size of the portions, though crowds can mean long lines on weekends, cash only payments and occasional notes of strong noise or a rare hiccup in quality. While most experiences are glowing and nostalgic, a few visits are mentioned as less than perfect including a bad batch of calamari, a day with dry gyro or missing ingredients, and concerns about upkeep and cleanliness in some parts of the venue. Taken together the reviews portray Marven's as a Montreal icon that delivers hearty, authentic Greek food, large portions, and consistently friendly service, with the caveat that patience and cash are useful when dining there.

Not what it was 30 years ago. Waiter can be rough at times (pause). & cash only is a dead giveaway to whatever what ever it is one would be suspicious of. Used to live two buildings over on Ball on the same block. But you notice that about a lot of great restaurants in Montreal & that were peeking in the 90s to early 2000s. On top of that, with Uber/Skip/etc, cooks all over the place are given more work for the same wage. Not surprising, just a shame. Miss the days where you had to actually go to a place to get great food & delivery was (generally) for quick fast food like pizza or fried chicken. OK BYE
