Review Summary

Overall, Philinos is described as a lively yet welcoming Greek‑Mediterranean spot where the food is consistently delicious, fresh, and well presented, with standout dishes like charred octopus, lamb chops, chicken souvlaki, and moussaka; portions can be generous and the prices high but felt warranted by quality and BYOW options, though a few reviews note small entrées and the greek salad surcharge; service is repeatedly praised for being friendly, professional, attentive, and accommodating, with staff often cited as a major part of the positive experience, while a rare interaction with management is mentioned as less smooth; the atmosphere is warm, festive, and homey, suitable for birthdays, groups, or business meals, and accessibility is highlighted with a large space, helpful staff, and well designed facilities; despite occasional noise on busy weekend nights, most reviewers would return and many call it the West Island’s premier dining option.

Great restaurant! My table had pork & chicken filets, with salad for appetizers, & cheese cake/baklava. Tasty, well spiced, generous portions, great presentation, well cooked as desired. Served appropriately quickly.
Cappuccino & coffee were excellent.
Prices are overall on the high end but also reflect the quality, freshness, portions, cooking art mastery that is served.

The main part of my experience was with the staff, whom all participated in making this a great evening! Friendly & good sense of humor, professional, polite, very respectful! A real pleasure!

Accessibility:
Main entrance with double doors. No push button.
The restaurant is large. The space between tables is okay for manual & power wheelchair.
The staff is also always willing to give priority to accessibility & move tables for more space if needed.

I would recommend to a mobility scooter user to ask for a spot to park, if possible, because it's not much possible to maneuver inside the restaurant with a scooter.

Bathroom (women):
Door has no push button & is relatively heavy.
Very large accessible stall, allows power wheelchair to turn inside of it, with safety bar properly placed, toilet paper easy to access, nothing to block the space. The stall door opens as supposed, towards the outside.
Total of 3 stalls, 1 of them being accessible.
Sinks with access under, soap easily reachable.
Bathroom impressively well adapted for accessibility! Well done!

The staff is very respectful, helpful & seems used to have customers with disabilities.

Thank you for the great experience!

Had a nice dinner tonight - food was good, & the portions were generous. We had the trio of spreads as an entree & moussaka as a main. The atmosphere was festive so sometimes it was a bit hard to talk to my partner but it was understandable considering the large party they were accommodating.
The prices to me were fine as it is a BYOW restaurant.
The one thing that bothered me was the Greek salad that accompanied the meal. It has a surcharge of 4 dollars compared to other salads. I guessed it was because of the price of feta & olives. In the end though, there were 2 olives & a couple of crumbs of feta & pretty much the equivalent of a whole red onion - which I left. Not was I expect from a Greek salad in a supposedly highly regarded Greek restaurant - especially with them charging extra. I told the waitress & showed her the pile of onion in my plate - but it was disregarded & I was charged the 4 dollars. That was disappointing & off putting.
