One of the best Greek restaurants in Montreal, but not many people know about it.View more
Big portions, everything tasted great. Only downside is that it's cash only, so either think ahead & bring cash or you risk paying ATM fees (one in the basement)View more

I heard that this place was so good & they did not disappoint. Enjoyed the lamb chops. So flavorful & large portions. The calamari appetizer was surprisingly good - perfectly cooked & not the usual chewy squid texture.View more
Marven's Restaurant: A Montreal Classic Serving Up Succulent Greek Fare Marven's is a Park Extension institution that has been serving Montrealers delicious Greek food since 1973. This family-run restaurant is known for its warm atmosphere, tasty dishes, & legendary portions. The menu features succulent fish & meat dishes, with their steaks, souvlaki, & titanic mixed grill platter being particular favorites. The portions are so generous that they've become a talking point among diners. Few patrons are aware, but the secret sauce is that most all foods on the menu are grilled to perfection on a wood burning fire pit. Be prepared to wait for a table, especially on weekends, as this popular spot draws a crowd eager to experience Marven's charm; whether it's their first time or 20th!View more
I've been going there for over 15 years Still satisfied with everything This is one of my favorite placesView more
It's stuck in time that place. Don't get me wrong....good food but you have to go with the times. Kinda sketch when u don't accept any sort of credit or payment method other then cash. In the old days...sure cash was the way to go but in 2024...mmm. Overall it's good food.View more
My high school buddy has owned Marvens since forever. I remember this food from my childhood & it hasn't changed.View more
🛑 MUST TRY! 🛑 What a hidden gem! This place is a must try if your in Montreal! Great food at great prices! The amount of squid you get for the price is unbelievable! Their taramasalata will transport you right to Greece! You'll lick the plate before you leave!View more
We were for lunch but after the lunch rush! Totally recommended for the time & the food. Attn: CASH only. Food: flavors are on point, family meal flavors done right. Yes, price is high but portions are huge. We have to take some leftovers to-go. Calamari is a must but also huge so sharing among 2 or 3 friends is better. Steaks are also humongous, prepare your stomach well in advance. Sauce: traditional sweet & tomato-ey sauce on the table (see pics) are a must with calamari. Drink: Fix beer is a nice larger that would cut the greasiness from food. Vibe: small, cozy, wooden cottage vibe. Very familial & local. Super attentive waiters. Dine there & walk to parc Jarry for digestion on a nice sunny day will complete your afternoon with relaxation.View more
Overall the food is great .. my only comment is that in a few of the Geros the some parts of the chicken was dry felt like it was shaved little earlier or been rotating little longer .. next time I will stick the the chicken on a stick Gero.. the Calamari was fantastic 👏 👌View more
Fresh food with big portions! I love their calmars, the best one in the whole Quebec province. I wish I had a bigger stomach.View more
