We had an amazing dinner at Orexi, & a huge part of what made the experience so special was our waiter, Steve!
Steve was genuinely one of the best waiters we've ever had. He was incredibly kind, attentive, & welcoming throughout the entire evening. He took the time to explain everything, patiently answered all of our questions, & even surprised us with a complimentary appetizer, which was such a thoughtful gesture.
You could really tell that Steve cared about making sure we had a great experience. His service was exceptional from start to finish, & he truly went above & beyond.
The food was amazing, but Steve's hospitality made the evening unforgettable. We will absolutely be coming back. Thank you, Steve, for making our dinner so special!
It was amazing. The service was impeccable. Our waiter was very attentive & helpful. He went above & beyond for us. He even offered us complimentary appetizers & accommodated our request to switch seats. I ordered the lamb chops & my wife ordered the Mediterranean Sea bass. Both dishes were top notch & very flavourful. We highly recommend.
Attentive service, a great ambience, & amazing Greek dishes characterize this restaurant, which proves the perfect place for an intimate get together, a night out, or a business dinner.
My husband & I stopped by for drinks & apps as we were roaming the streets of old montreal. Fantastic & attentive team. Very welcoming. Our apps were delish & filling. The calamari & mousakka were rich in flavor.
Beautiful restaurant with some of the best Greek food I've ever had. Fantastic service with very attentive staff. Beautiful ambience. We will definitely be coming back. Highly recommended.
This is one of the better restaurants in Old Montreal & the best Greek food I've encountered in the city by far. If you don't know where to go, go here. The food is outstanding (particularly the grilled octopus!!), the attention to detail is on a level I've rarely seen before, the wine selection is excellent, & the service is generous & attentive.
The owner is a chef who's clearly put his heart & soul into every bit of this place. 10/10. I'll be returning again & bringing friends whenever they visit to show them what Montreal has to offer.
Just visited this amazing hidden gem in old port of Montreal, the food is stunning, simple & so delicious, sea bass was the top
Peter has made our experience high quality we've ever received, he is very attentive & kind! If you want to try the best authentic Greek food with the real taste it's the place #1 for this 2026 year
Lovely ambience with Greek music in the background. Professional, attentive server named Kosta who offered great suggestions. Food was sinfully delicious! The octopus is a must along with the zucchini & eggplant chips! The grilled chicken was moist & cooked to perfection! The lamb shank was tender & tasteful….& finally the loukoumades which was the perfect dessert for a wonderful evening at Orexi restaurant! Will definitely be back 😊
This hidden gem in Old Montreal is an absolute must-visit.
We started with one of their specialty cocktails-perfectly balanced between sweet & sour (brandy, passion fruit, & ginger beer), & easily one of their standout signature drinks.
The evening began with a couple of sides, including chopped & Greek salads, followed by a perfectly grilled octopus that was a total hit.
For the main course, the Mediterranean sea bass was beautifully flavorful & paired wonderfully with grilled vegetables & lima beans-everything was equally delicious.
We ended the night on a high note with incredible desserts: honey balls drizzled with Nutella, black cherry yogurt, & their famous baklava.
A special thank you to Peter, our waiter, who was extremely attentive & guided us through the menu with excellent recommendations.
Thank you to the entire team for a wonderful experience.
