Across reviews, Pappou Souvlaki is described as consistently delicious with fresh salads and careful adherence to order notes, delivering authentic Greek flavors and solid portions at a good price.

The service is frequently described as friendly and knowledgeable, with staff explaining menu differences and accommodating pickup or dine-in when available. Some feedback notes the venue feels more like a takeout spot than a dining room, and a few visits mentioned issues such as rice that tasted microwaved, potatoes that were cold, chicken that could be dry, or a minor kitchen precaution lapse like a stray plastic piece in sauce. Overall, the reviews converge on high regard for the food and a reliable, affordable option for authentic Greek cuisine and regular orders, earning it a reputation as a hidden gem and a reliable choice for quick meals.
THANK YOU FOR THE BEST SOUVLAKI! Grateful mom of 4 here. When I just can't make another dinner Pappou Souvlaki saves the day! Consistent, hot, fresh, delicious, friendly & so accommodating. Their pricing is amazing too. They really DO merit 5 🌟
My photo doesn't do this place or its food justice. Quantity matches quality which is EXCELLENT! If you're looking for some excellent, FRESH & authentic made Greek food, *this* is your place! The people working here are equally AWESOME & I will be returning here as a regular 🤩👍👍
Update: going on to 3 years coming here, I don't know what some of the recent negative reviews are about, but Ahmad always takes care of his customers & *every* time I order, it's SUPERB. Thanks as always my friend! 😊👍 My only recent regret is I forgot to get some chicken gyro meat on the side 😋 Now I have an excuse to come back sooner for it
Excellent food, I had the chicken stick pitas & fries, very delicious Greek Canadian fast food. I'm looking forward to trying the authentic Greek salad!
Meat was amazing, lamb, beef, & chicken included! However, everything else was mediocre, fries were stale & bland, rice was dry & tasteless, & salad was lackluster. However, the main reason for my very low review was because of my dine-in experience. When my Mom & I asked for water we were told that they have no cups so they cannot serve us water. The person working then said you can buy water bottles to which I politely replied that the water should be free because they are not providing any other option. The person working was pretty rude & emotionless about it, stating that they are mainly a take out resto so they don't have cups. Regardless, if you have tables & seating, offer dine in, I'm pretty sure having free water is mandatory, but I'm willing to be corrected. Aside from the meat, because of everything else, I would not come again, especially when for the same price you can get bigger portions & higher quality overall from other spots in the west island. Lastly, the place reeked of cleaning products while somehow not being very clean at the same time.
Did an uber order for kids & me. Chicken, bread, fries all very good tasting. Person called to confirm order & was very kind & put cheese on the side which was much appreciated & didn't put onions in the salad. Thank you! Removed a star because there was too much salt on the rice. We couldn't eat the rice due to the excess salt.

Great food, friendly staff & fantastic service! Definitely better than Souvlaki Bar! They can easily give Souvlaki Authentique a run for their money. Thanks again!
Best in Pierrefonds!!! Greek food is sublime!! My kids couldn't get enough! Service was great too. Owner was very courteous & friendly. A teapot customer for sure. I would recommend a million times.
There are a lot of great Greek restaurants in Montreal, but I think this might be the best one right now. Even when you order something super simple like a Chicken Stick, it's absolutely delicious & very filling, compared to almost all other Greek places. All of their meats are amazing, fries are amazing. It's clear this place does not cheap out on anything, very high quality. P.S: To the person who left a 1-star review because the in store payment asks if you want to leave a tip (which you can just choose $0), welcome to 2024, that's everywhere, & it's software based. You should edit your review as you said you found the food so delicious, yet you gave 1-star for a completely bogus reason based on your lack of understanding.
We were going to eat there but got there & the air conditioning was broken, so we did take out. The food was amazing. Fries were crispy, salad was delicious & the chicken gyro, beef gyro & the chicken sticks were great. Definitely going back!

Ordered many of their plates, absolutely delicious & tender meat, tasty rice, & fresh salad with delicious salad dressing. I've picked up from the restaurant & ordered home delivery, & both options offer a fast & friendly service. I highly recommend Pappou Souvlaki.
The chicken pita is amazing , chicken is tinder & love that the taziki isnt to garlicy. The lamb chops are amazing very tender . The calimaris the flavor was there but they werent crispy enough was missing the crunch. Hope you guys add the greek potatoes & the fries with feta on your menu. Would try again .
This is my go-to place for Greek food. The food is perfect everytime. I usually get a Gyro plate with salad & fries/rice. They get the perfect ratio of meat/tomato & Taziki for the gyro & the salad is fresh & crunchy. Most places I usually always choose fries as the side, but this place has amazing seasoned rice so now I usually go for that. The fries here are also great, with a crispy outsides & fluffy potato-y insides. The staff is friendly, & brightens my day every time I visit. The staff really has a passion for the food that you can taste with every bite. If you like Greek food, this place is a must go!
