Review Summary

Reviewers describe Marven's as a cozy, family style Greek spot in Park Extension with wood fired grilling, generous portions, and consistently hearty flavors. Calamari is repeatedly singled out as a standout, often called the best in town, while the lamb chops, rib steak and souvlaki also receive high marks for quality and value. The menu blends fried and grilled classics with plenty of sharing plates, and many diners praise authentic tzatziki, Greek salad, and sauces that add real flavor. Service is typically friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, though the restaurant can feel crowded and noisy, especially on weekends, with lines forming before seating. Cash is required, with an ATM on site, and takeout or delivery is available for those who prefer. While most reviews are enthusiastic, a few note occasional inconsistencies in dishes or service and suggest the experience may vary by day or crowd.

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 !

Great experience at Marven's. Best calamari in town, generous portions, & a nice variety of food on the menu. Loved the service as well - friendly & efficient. Just make sure to bring cash, as they don't accept cards. Definitely worth a visit.

I had an amazing experience at Marven's - easily one of Montréal's best spots for hearty, authentic Greek food. The portions are generous & everything tastes freshly grilled: their lamb chops, mixed grill platter & souvlaki come out juicy & full of flavor. The vibe inside is warm & welcoming, almost like a cozy family tavern, & the staff are friendly & efficient. On top of that, the prices are reasonable for what you get, & the ambiance - with wood?fire grills & rustic decor - adds to the charm. If you're craving comfort food & a filling meal with great hospitality, Marven's is definitely worth the visit.

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.

Deux plats qui vaut le détour : calmar frit & Ribs steaks.

Their house & greek salad are one of the best, & they give good portions of it. The house sauce too, amazing to pour on the steak of lamb chops, which is what we always order when we go there. The seating is crowded, which is even tougher to move around with puffy winter coats, or with small kids (if they don't sit still).

Feels like this place has been open forever, yet their food & service has stayed consistent throughout the years.

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!

Pros:
A) The food is really good. Never once have I been sick or had a bad experience for now.
B) Service is friendly. Some waiters will take notes some no. They speak English & French.
C) The atmosphere inside is nice. It feels very comfortable. Upgraded the lights.

Cons:
A) The washroom is okay. Just clean well. There were some mold on the stalls & flush is broken on one of them.
Maybe renovate the basement.
B) The one heater outside the waiting shed is broken when we arrive please fix it.
C) I saw one. Bug & some fruit flies inside the restaurant please find a way eliminate them.

Conclusion:
A) It's very good restaurant been here many times. Very busy & popular on weekends & Friday nights.
B) It's money 💵 only. They also do takeout & delivery.
