Souvlaki Authentique

5.0

There have been many versions of 1345/47 rue Ontario East - a mac bar, a Greek restaurant, a mac-&-Greek hybrid, even a bar/club where I could imagine Mariah Carey walking by & saying,'I don't know her.'

But now, it's brand new beautiful Greek restaurant - with new owners, new energy, & a menu that is very delicious.

The moment you walk in, the space feels warm & inviting - soft lighting, light wood accents, & subtle touches of blue that remind you of the islands. The decor is simple but intentional; nothing feels overdone. It's the kind of place where you can stay a while - & you should.

The food? Fresh, flavorful, & comforting. The souvlaki is perfectly grilled with that smoky char, the tzatziki is creamy & bright, & the fries - golden, crisp, & impossible to stop eating. Even the pita feels homemade. Every dish tastes like it was made with care & pride.

Sure, Uber Eats is convenient & staying home is cozy, but nothing compares to sitting down at Souvlaki Authentique, having a meal, & soaking up the atmosphere. It's the kind of restaurant that makes you forget the weather outside.

A great addition to the neighborhood - & one worth supporting.

This is a spectacular Greek restaurant. The space is beautifully put together, lots of white & blue in patriotic homage to the Greek flag. The menu covers all of the Greek grill favourites. The pitas have a bit more variety with untraditional options such as a philly cheesesteak option. I went with the traditional Pita Onassis & it was so satisfying. The place wasn't busy so the server had time to converse, he was a very personable young man. I tried a side order of the potatoes as well & they were delicious, so perfectly seasoned. The pricing was reasonable too. This Greek restaurant checks all of the boxes, you will not be disappointed.

Decided to try this Greek restaurant for the 1st time. Besides having eaten Greek food for the longest time in so many places in Montreal, Laval. Québec, I will give a TOP 10 to SOUVLAKI AUTHENTIQUE located in Place Ville Marie on ROUEN street.

Ordered 2 chicken souvlaki pita plate with Greek potatoes & house salad. Fresh, delicious food. The chicken was well marinated & cooked perfectly. The greek potatoes with their signature sauce on top were so good. Rice cooked perfectly. The souvlaki pitas are unbelievably delicious. The Tzaziki is well done & tastes authentic.

I am very happy to have eaten here & will definitely go back very soon.

I always order for takeout here. Food is ready in 15min & no issue paying & getting the food unless there's a bunch of ubers. The food is always great. Love the meat with the pita. My only nitpick is the lack of sauce with the greek potatoes. Lots of potatoes but not enough sauce to cover them all perfectly!
