Updated review: I've been coming here since 2016 (9 years now) & it never disappoints. Same great taste, same consistent quality, & always friendly service. Highly recommend the gyro souvlaki & the chicken-juicy, flavorful, & delicious.

The chicken & yero souvlakis are the
tastiest in Montreal...believe me as I tried Marathon's, Marven's, Village Grec, Arahova...Nostos rocks! I also really like their grilled chicken, never dry but always tasty & juicy. Damn, I just got a craving writing about this..lol
Delicious gyros. Loved the taramasalata. The French fries were good. Their salad was also delicious. I especially appreciated the retsina wine. It wasn't on the menu but it was available.

We had Gyro & Shrimp plate The pork was rubbery Shrimps we're casa grecque style , soggy We Really didn't like the food Service was good & place was clean. So 4*
A real mainstay for Greek food in the area. Portions are generous & our waiter John was excellent. Food quality is good & our Gyro salad was delicious. Haven't had a bad thing on their menu. Highly recommended.
My friend had gyro pita.nice big sandwich I had souvlaki pita thought was a kidy meal 6 little bits of meat 20 25 grams at most was trying to find the meat the cook who made My souvlaki should get fired the smalls souvlaki I had in my life wine forget it tom gore 20$ bottel $55 way over price
Had not been there in quite awhile but always enjoyed it. This time around, it was simply OK. & not just my belief, no one in the group felt the food was memorable. Freshness was very good but gyro both pork & chicken lacked a memorable taste. Tzatziki was not strong at all. More of a sour cream taste. Service was good but a little long. Not certain I would visit again. Sorry
Hadn't been to Nostos in awhile & we regret it. Hands down best greek food in montreal. The porc gyro is perfectly seasoned. The tzaziki is so tasty. Their pita is not overly thick where you are trying to look for the meat. Well balanced proportionally in other words. The salad is tasty with fresh produce & quality greek olive oil. Oh & those who complain about the fries they are out of their mind. Also they make the best grilled chicken.

Went there for a family dinner. First time but food was really good. Service was great. Took Chicken Gyro pita, Calamari entree & a side of Taramosalata (best I've ever had). Was pleasantly surprised. Would go back. Recommended!
they got the freshest salad in all Montreal. Ofc i didn't take a pic. because its just house salad but man, All ingredients are crunchy the tomatoes 🍅, green peppers 🫑 ,Onions🧅 & the delicious olive oil & aromatic seasoning all DELICIOUS . order the big size. lamb chops were nice too . They only got porc or chicken gyros or sandwiches no beef tho.
Expérience très bonne. La nourriture délicieuse & remplie de saveur. Nous avons pris le plat Gyro pour deux avec une entrée de taramasalata ainsi que de calamars frits! Très bon service ;)
