Review Summary

Ouzeri is widely regarded as a staple for authentic and flavourful Greek cuisine, known for its inviting atmosphere and consistently friendly, efficient service. Many patrons praise the restaurant for its excellent lamb moussaka, generous portions, and suitability for pre-theatre dining, noting that the staff is often attentive and quick. While the experience is frequently described as a reliable and high-quality destination for groups and long-time visitors, recent feedback indicates some inconsistency regarding food seasoning, portion sizing, and a shift in the establishment's traditional charm. Despite mixed reports on recent visits, the majority of diners appreciate the vibrant environment and continue to recommend it as a must-visit spot in the neighborhood.

The Ouzeri on St Denis is one of my favorite restaurants in the city. I have been coming here for 25 yrs & it never disappoints.
The Pikilia platter as an appetizer is to die for. Then you have to order the Saganaki, Beef Martini, Lamb feta, as well the beet salad, grilled octopus etc… to name a few.
This place if why Montreal is such a great culinary powerhouse. Great food at a reasonable price. Anybody can pay a fortune to get good food. It takes a city with depth to find amazing restaurants that are reasonably priced. Enjoy.
Oh great atmosphere as well.

Food is good but portions are a little bit ridiculous for the price. Ordered two avgolemono soups which cost $30. The two soups combined didn't fill on standard size soup bowl. Have ordered before & experienced small portions but nothing like this. Shrinkflation clearly happening here.

Don't get me wrong - the food was great tasting. However, what we got was like getting an appetizer. Especially when you see the prices. We had grilled vegetables & salmon, it did not come with sides. If we hadn't ordered a soup & pita bread before the main meal, we had left hungry. In total, we paid $67, which is no small price even when you account for our appetizers. In addition, the salmon was raw inside & they had to recook it.

The food was good, but the service was a bit disappointing for the price of the products. The washroom was a bit dirty & they didn't have paper towels or toilet paper. I'm not sure I'd go back again.

I've been here a few times over the years. Food has always been good but I'm sad to say their prices compared to other restaurants today don't make sense. The smallest salad I've perhaps ever seen in any restaurant was 22$. I've ordered calamari at 50 Montreal restaurants, theirs is very good but the portion size compared to other good calamari is maybe 20% less at that price. We could have gone to a higher class restaurant & ordered 7 courses at this price because we ordered a few dishes to make up for the quantity. Excellent atmosphere. It would still be one of my favorite restaurants if the prices were maybe 20% lower to match other competitors.

I didn't like the food there that much, the dishes didn't come with any sides. The price was expensive compared to what we got.
