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

Signature offerings include succulent souvlaki skewers and hearty platters designed to showcase fundamental flavor profiles. 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. The result is a pragmatic representation of regional cooking that relies on the natural compatibility of high quality staples.

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.

Does this place really need a review? Probably not but I'll give one anyway. They do rib steak better than most steakhouses in this city, their calamari is unmatched & their portions are huge for fair prices. The only complaint is that they are so busy the wait time can be long & the noise level high. Definitely 5 stars

Amazing customer service & delicious food! The lamb chops were incredibly flavorful - truly the highlight of the meal. Our server, Andrea, was excellent & made the experience even better.

Best Greek grill in Montreal, since 1973 ! We've been coming for years & never disappoints.
The rib steak is truly amazing, tender & expertly grilled. It's served with sautéed mushrooms, chunky home fries, & a huge Greek salad.
Don't forget their calamari & tender lamb chops.
Special thanks to Jimmy & Peter, for the exceptional service.
This is a landmark in Montreal, & truly worth a trip to Park Extension. There may be lineups, but it's worth it.

Note : Cash only, but there's an ATM onsite.

As an Asian, this was my first time ever trying Greek food,& honestly, it's some of the best food I've ever had! I always thought Greek food might be a bit dry, but this was the total opposite: everything was juicy, the meat was so tender, & it tasted amazing. The fries were perfectly crispy, & the food came out really quickly too. The staff were super friendly, & honestly, just writing this review is making me want to go back already 😭.

Used to come quite often & loved the food. Very disappointed. Have not been there for a while & wow did the food quality go down. The chicken was tasteless . The gyro was missing so many ingredients. Too bad , definetely not going back again . When i think i was always recommending the place.
