I was excited to try this restaurant after seeing so many 5 star reviews & it was nothing short of a wonderful experience. The lovely waitress Katalina greeted me with warmth as soon as I stepped through the door & kindly answered any questions I had about the menu. Seeing that I was eager to try a wide variety of food, she also shared some helpful cost effective hacks that allowed me to indulge to the absolute fullest. At one point the owner Kosta even walked up to my table to make sure all the food was up to standard. The man is not only a sweetheart, but from simply expressing my love for both their signature lemon sauce & house dressing, he insisted I take a giant complimentary jar of each of them for free.

Nous avons été déçus par la qualité de la viande. Dans nos quatre pitas, les morceaux de porc étaient très gras.
En ce qui concerne le service, nous avions appelé à l'avance avant de nous rendre sur place pour récupérer notre commande. La personne qui a pris notre commande nous avait mentionné que cela prendrait environ 10 à 15 minutes avant que ce soit prêt. Malgré cela, nous avons dû attendre une heure.
Donc, la qualité prix ni est pas.
Tout était parfait, très bon service , désolée je n'ai pas le prénom de notre serveuse mais il y a le Numéro 7 sur ma facture … le restaurant est magnifique & très propre
We come here frequently! Love the chicken skewer plate. The house salad & dressing are addicting! The potatoes are always made to perfection, then with the added sauce; it's just too good. Great servings & amazing staff as well.
My friends have been raving about this restaurant for a long time, & I finally had the opportunity to stop by & eat there recently, & let me tell you what an absolutely amazing experience. The staff are Joyful & polite. They frequently, checked on our needs, making very good recommendations on menu options & explaining the differences between authentic Greek & the more commercialised big chain restaurants. I shared an appetiser with my friend of warm pita bread, drizzled with the best olive oil I've ever had & three dipping sauces. I've had this from other restaurants before but never tasted this good. The taramasalata in particular was my favourite, & the kopanisti, which was just the right level of spice. I also had the chicken souvlaki pita, & the meat was perfectly seasoned & perfectly cooked. The decor was bright & clean, it actually made me feel like I was eating in Greece. All that was missing was a salty ocean breeze & I could swear I was there! Thank you for the lovely meal & I look forward to returning to this restaurant to try more of their dishes!

Très bon restaurant grec dans la région. Je commande régulièrement & je ne suis jamais déçue. Je donne 4 étoiles car le temps d'attente pour la livraison me paraît long toujours long, sinon je donnerais 5.
The food is the best ever, the quality is superb, the quantity is for a big appetite you get your money's worth :) . Everything is perfect except... it is very long to be served. This was our 4th time at the restaurant, one waitress is very good to take care of the customer, she makes sure everyone has what they asked for. Unfortunately the other one does not follow up & make sure that we get served in a timely manner. We had to ask one of the girls if they had forgotten us :( We even had to ask for the bill because she never came back to see us.
For someone who love Greek & Mediterranean cuisine, this place was a delightful surprise. So lucky to have found this gem & now we have a go to place whenever we visit this side of QC.
