Visited twice during a weekend in Montreal with wife & three daughters. Was impressed with hands on by manager, Mr T. He has excellent table-side manners & worked as hard as any of his fine employees.
Amazing service, great staff, the owner really made us feel at home with a big smile & delicious food would definitely recommend it. It was my birthday & I could say it's one of the best birthday diners I've had, cozy but classy environment
If you are looking for a fantastic dining experience, look no further. The owner & bartender, & servers will take CARE of you! This is a fairly new restaurant but it deserve all the hype. Don't miss this on your trip or stop into Old Montreal!

Mon amie & moi sommes tombées par hasard sur ce restaurant en marchant au Vieux-port & avons décidé d'y arrêter pour souper. C'est une de mes plus belles surprises gastronomiques de l'année à Montréal, le Taramasalata dip était excellent. Nous avons aussi adoré le Branzino & la salade de fenouil. Le service était super attentionné & j'ai adoré l'ambiance calme & feutrée. J'y retournerais définitivement.

Visiting from America. Amazing Greek food at a very reasonable price. The octopus is beyond phenomenal. Augustine Was an amazing waiter. Pleasant & shared a little bit of local culture.
This is a lovely place. It was around the corner from our hotel & we decided to give it a try. It was one of the best places we ate at in Montreal. Very cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, delicious food. The server helped us with our menu choices (it's meant to share) so we'd have enough for the table. The wine pairing was perfect. I wish I lived in Montreal so I could eat here every week.
Wow! Incroyable restaurant, super découverte. La bouffe est excellente, très belle sélection de vin & service 10/10. Zacharie notre serveur était rapide, attentif. Nous retournerons souvent.
I was looking at the posted menu thinking of my trip to Greece wanting a shot of Mastic Tears. Owner took me inside to a tiny bar & made me feel at home. Good drink, good Tzatziki & even better conversation for a woman from Kentucky. I hope to go back this week for a full Greek dinner. A lovely place to dine with friends & family, or solo like me.
Perfect location In Old Montreal, great food , service & atmosphere. We had some olives, a dip, watermelon salad & calamari that were all delicious. The watermelon salad an absolute fanoriite. We also had the pastitsio which was divine. We took half home as it was a large portion. Definitely would dine here again
This is only the 2nd review I have ever written. If you want FRESH authentic Greek food you have to visit. Not only was EVERYTHING delicious, the hospitality was spectacular. Theo made us feel so welcome & appreciated. Definitely, a must!
