Review Summary

Ouzeri is noted for a long-standing Greek and Mediterranean menu with many diners praising tasty, well-prepared dishes, fresh ingredients, and friendly, efficient service at times, along with reasonable prices that invite returns. Yet some visits were marked by slow, distracted service and a sense that the dining experience has shifted after a recent ownership change, with the vibe feeling more expeditious and less intimate and some dishes appearing less well presented. Favorite items are highlighted as grilled calamari and other seafood, brochettes, and saganaki, while some dishes were described as bland or lacking flavor or the overall menu as variable. The atmosphere is often described as convivial and welcoming, with a tapas style breadth and a bilingual menu, though on other nights the mood can feel rushed or less attentive from staff. Overall, Ouzeri remains a well-regarded spot for Greek fare with many praising its quality and value over the years, but there is evident variability in service and preparation that leaves guests hoping the restaurant preserves its warmth and authenticity while sharpening consistency.

J'ai toujours été un fan fini de Ouzeri. J'y vais depuis un peu plus de 25 ans!

J'y suis allé cette semaine - novembre 2025.

Le propriétaire a changé; La vibe a changé. Je me sentais pressé à table pour quitter avant le prochain service, alors que ça a pris du temps à nous servir. Le service familial chaleureux a été remplacé par de l'expéditif plus impersonnel. L'attention aux table défaillante… ça a perdu de son charme villageois.

Les plats aussi ont changé un peu aussi. Le saganaki semble changé, présentation de la pieuvre grillée: moins grillée, présentation moins soignée. Mais ça reste bon.

Bref… je vais y retourner. C'était peut etre une mauvaise soiree. J'espère me tromper & je changerai mon commentaire… sinon, ce sera un petit deuil pour moi.

Our takeout from Ouzeri, nestled on Saint Denis Street in Montreal, was a flavorful success. Known for its authentic Greek vibe, this place feels like a slice of the Mediterranean in the heart of the city. We kicked things off with a trio of appetizers-standout shoutout to the eggplant dish, which was a hit. The lamb chops? A universal favorite in our group. Even the kids got in on the fun, loving the side order of rice, while the garden salad brought a refreshing finish. Despite the dinner rush (it's definitely a busy spot for dine-in), the takeout process was smooth, & the food arrived fresh & full of flavor. It's clear why this spot has a reputation for both its casual, lively vibe & quality eats. 5/5-this place is firmly on our revisit list.

Unbelievable!! Food was fantastic but our server really made the night! Shoutout to Maya! We got the lamb chops, spanakopita, potatoes, & espresso martinis (which were surprisingly amazing). The vibe upstairs was great, would recommend it more than downstairs!

First visit in years. It's ok, the food is fine, ambience a definite zero, they should try playing some music. Went there on a Friday night, it had a retirement home vibe a bit. Might go back in another 15 years.

We were for looking to have dinner outside & it was nearing dinner time so we decided to call & see if it was necessary to make a reservation. The gentleman on the phone highly recommended making the reservation & so we had our table set aside for us. Upon arrival, there may be two tables out of the entire restaurant that we're occupied. so we thought maybe it was a false encouragement to make the reservation. However as we made our way throughout the meal, no more than 30 to 40 minutes later as we turned around the whole entire restaurant was filled. There wasn't a single table available & this was roughly 6 o'clock on a Saturday night. That being said, keep that in mind if you choose to visit this restaurant for dinner. It was explained to us that the dishes are served in the type of tapas fashion. Meaning, some of the dishes did not necessarily come with sides so you needed to order rice or whatever else you wanted. Some of the portions were also on the small side so they encouraged us to order a variety of plates. That way we could all share. In the end we have the Saganaki flambé cheese to share, Another order of bread & spread, a spaghetti dish, moussaka, feta lamb, & shrimp dish. There was more than enough food for the four of us, & we managed to take some of it home. The staff was very attention, it & quick . we enjoyed the vibe inside the restaurant & did delicious food. We managed to walk to the restaurant. However, if you're coming by Car, you will have to find parking on the street & depending on the time of day & the day of the week you might need to pay for street parking.
