Les avis sur Philinos décrivent une ambiance animée et chaleureuse et une cuisine grecque authentique qui récolte de bons retours, les gyros et les viandes étant souvent salués pour leur goût et leur fraîcheur, tandis que les accompagnements peuvent sembler fades, notamment une couronne entière de brocoli, et un supplément pour passer à une salade grecque a été noté. Le service est généralement perçu comme attentif et efficace malgré l affluence, l ambiance chaleureuse donnant l impression d une expérience conviviale et familiale. À noter que les gyros sont disponibles à emporter uniquement et qu il est possible d apporter son vin. Le niveau sonore peut être élevé et nécessite parfois de parler plus fort, ce qui peut gêner les conversations, en particulier lors des soirées achalandées. Certaines visites ont connu des temps d attente plus longs ou un service qui arrive rapidement, et certains plats comme le poisson ont été jugés un peu chers par rapport à d autres options. Dans l ensemble, Philinos est perçu comme une destination fiable pour goûter une cuisine grecque bien exécutée et généreuse, avec une ambiance agréable et des portions copieuses qui incitent à revenir, malgré quelques points à améliorer comme le choix des accompagnements et la gestion du rythme du service.
The place was bustling & a bit louder than expected. The pork & chicken souvlaki sticks were decent, but the sides were quite dull, literally a whole crown of broccoli. They came with a basic salad, & there was an extra charge to upgrade to a Greek salad, which felt odd for a Greek restaurant.
I don't know where to start so let's enter inside first ..
The first encouter you get will most likely set the tone for the rest & the manager at the door did just that. A zombie that looked at me top to bottom like i didn't belong there.
Philinos gives you a sense of high end, higher standard type of greek restaurant but its not..
I payed 39$ for a small bowl of rubber fried calamari
17$ for a bland grec salad (again another small bowl), 68$ for 2 pieces of 5cm lamb & half inch chicken filets (at least that was good)
36$ for 3 Baklava cheesecake.
Side note** we celebrated 3 birthdays at once. None even one of the cheescake was gifted.
I got robbed. The waiteress was very good but left alone on a crowded restaurant. All that to get the payment terminal ripped from my hands & vanishing without saying anything. Philinos was based on someone's recommandation while any other greek restaurant would've done better.
My family was deeply disspapointed. Manager should greet, make sure she's properly staffed & to stop robbing people. We're no fools
I will never go back nor recommend this place.

For quick, well-executed Greek food, this is the place. This was probably the juiciest, most succulent pork souvlaki I've ever had. The pork was tastier & juicier than the chicken. Honourable mention to the fresh, delicious, tangy roasted potatoes. However, the decor & ambiance needs work - it's tacky, cold & thoughtless which was disappointing.
Recently went to the Laval location with a large group of friends. The place was really empty & they seemed decidedly upset that we kept them there on a Sunday evening. The waiter was arrogant & straight up rude. Their Greek salad was an embarrassment. I could easily make it better at home. The octopus was tough & tasteless. The sea bass, however, was very good. Since there are many better options for Greek in the Montreal-Laval area & because the service was awful, I would not go back & cannot recommend it.

Very much enjoyed. Excellent souvlaki. Large excellent (fresh) Greek salad not skimping on the feta (although I like more olives). Others in the party also very pleased with their meals. We were with 3 Paralympic athletes & staff were excellent with all of us.
I've had my son's baptism here & come to eat regularly. The food is consistent & always tastes great. The service is always amazing & the wait staff take the time to listen & take care of you. Our fave Greek restaurant by far!
Great service by John. We had the'mezzedakia' plate. It's a meat platter with grilled classics like chicken breast, pork, loukaniko (greek sausage). & lamb chops. We added a salad & a saganaki appetizer. Very good. Efagaristo!
