Pappou Souvlaki est largement reconnu comme une destination incontournable pour savourer une cuisine grecque halal authentique et savoureuse à Montréal, de nombreux clients louant la qualité constante des salades fraîches, du poulet tendre et des portions généreuses offertes dans les spéciaux familiaux. Bien que la nourriture obtienne régulièrement d'excellentes notes pour son goût et son rapport qualité-prix, beaucoup de visiteurs soulignent que l'établissement fonctionne principalement comme un comptoir pour emporter plutôt que comme un restaurant où manger sur place, ce qui peut influencer le confort global. Bien que la majorité des retours soient extrêmement positifs concernant le service amical et la préparation soignée, quelques préoccupations mineures sur l'attention portée en cuisine ont été soulevées, mais la plupart des clients demeurent fidèles et décrivent cet endroit comme un véritable joyau culinaire offrant des repas délicieux à chaque visite.
I was craving Greek food. I thought it was an authentic spot by Greeks. Portion are huge. Food is meh ok. The salad dressing is really sweet. The chicken pita was way too saucy. Rice isn't Greek at all.
I'm sorry for this review. I didn't get to taste the food. I tried ordering first in English, then in French, with two different employees.... I kept asking for the chicken plate with two skewers. They kept entering the wrong item.
They didn't seem to know their own menu, as they needed to be reminded that it comes with rice ...
They couldn't communicate sufficiently in either language (not looking for high fluency just enough to take an order). I tried ordering by pointing the the menu & placing it in their window...still didn't understand. They remained polite the entire time. I just couldn't spend more than 15 mins, carrying a toddler, trying to place an order.
It's really unfortunate to enter a restaurant excited to try the food & having to leave after trying to order food for so long.
FYI if you speak Arabic, you will be fine ordering. Unfortunately, we don't.
I would strongly recommend staying away from Pappou Souvlaki.
I placed a takeout order an hour & a half in advance, yet the order was still about 25 minutes late. That was already disappointing, but the bigger issue was the food preparation.
When I arrived, I noticed that the chicken souvlaki was being reheated in the microwave. I asked the owner about it, & his response was that he'had no choice.' There was no apology & no concern, as if serving microwaved chicken at a restaurant is normal.
One of the staff members even commented that he microwaves food at home as well. But that's exactly the point - people go to restaurants expecting freshly prepared food, not something reheated in a microwave.
If I wanted microwaved chicken, I could easily do that at home & save the money.
Between the delay, the microwaved food, & the lack of acknowledgment from the owner, the experience was very disappointing. See the videos showing how the food was reheated.
The food was so amazing, very saucy & well cooked! The person who served us, explained to us by detail the difference between the salads, chicken & more. Quite nice of him.
I read the reviews & the place seemed like it served good food however... When I brought our order home, it was another story.
The rice tasted as if it had been microwaved, the potatoes cold...chicken was dry. The only thing that was decent was the salad. I will not be returning...
Wanted souvlaki & a quick supper. Went to Pappou souvlaki. We were nicely greeted, & they do have a couple of booth so you can dine-in. It is mostly a take-out restaurant, but having the seats was nice. Had the small Gyros platter & my boyfriend the chicken souvlaki pottar combo. Both were very good. Service was nice, & we even had a course of the rule of cricket as it was what was shown on TV, & we had no idea how the game rules were. Our waiter took the time to explain it to us. Will go back for sure.
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
Showed up with wife 10 minutes before closing not knowing their hours. They sparked up the fire without any issues & provided us with amazing chicken gyros. Great service & delicious food!!!
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!
