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.

Yes, it's noisy! We were there on a Saturday evening. Thank goodness we arrived at 5:30 & were nearly done by 7:30 because at that point we could not hear ourselves talk.
Food was good, a bit pricey considering portion size (no greek rice, 1 potato, very small entrées). Service was good but when we asked for a twist cap to recap the wine (wasn't left on the table) the server pulled a cork out of his pocket & stuffed it in the bottle (ick!). Will not go back.

Philinos has officially claimed the crown as the West Island's new premier dining destination. Bringing the legendary reputation of its Park Ave & Laval predecessors to Pointe-Claire, this spot perfectly blends upscale elegance with a lively, welcoming atmosphere.

?The menu is a masterclass in Mediterranean simplicity. The charred octopus is arguably the best in Montreal, & the crispy zucchini & eggplant towers with thick tzatziki are absolute non-negotiables for the table. Whether you're diving into their perfectly seasoned lamb chops or the buttery lemon potatoes, the quality of ingredients is evident in every bite. While the West Island has no shortage of Greek options, Philinos stands out by offering a more refined,'event-style' dining experience with impeccable service & a great wine list. If you're looking for the best meal on St-Jean Blvd right now, this is it just make sure to book a table in advance.

I recently organized a holiday lunch for the McGill University Retiree Association (MURA) & it was perfect! Fifty-eight people came to the lunch & every comment we received was extremely positive. The food was excellent & the fact that we could bring our own wine was a bonus. I think that many of those who attended the lunch will be going back on their own or with friends, myself included! Thank you to everyone at Philinos who made this happen & made us feel so welcome!

Our waiter always with a smile was making sure that we were okay & if we needed anything! The food quality & presentation were excellent! Everything was fresh & tasted delicious!
