When life gives you lemons, squeeze it on your souvlaki! Authentic cuisine and lively Greek music, complemented by the Grecian passion for life: this is the essence of Souvlaki Bar. Greek Superstar Mihalis Hatzigiannis teamed up with Foodtastic to bring his passion for Greek cuisine to Montreal. Souvlaki Bar transforms the dining experience, reminiscent of a visit to the Greek Isles, by offering its customers traditional Greek food, in a fun, rich-ambiance environment, sure to leave customers with a lasting impression of what Greece has to offer. We are fresh
Reviews for Souvlaki Bar describe generous portions, fresh and flavorful Greek inspired dishes, and friendly, attentive service that many find welcoming and efficient. Diners frequently highlight the meat shovels, souvlaki plates, gyro options, calamari, and large salads as standout options, with prices considered a solid value given portion sizes. The atmosphere is described as cozy and family friendly, though it can be busy on weekends and peak hours, leading to longer waits for certain courses or drinks. Takeout is praised as well, matching dine in quality for many, while a few comments note inconsistencies in flavor or texture, including a dry shaved meat, underseasoned dressing, and in one case overcooked chicken. A few diners also mentioned slow drink service but quick plate delivery once orders were placed, and a small cleanliness concern with high chairs. Overall Souvlaki Bar emerges as a reliable, satisfying option for hearty Greek meals with generous portions, strong service, and a lively vibe, with most experiences leaving diners planning a return visit.
I'll start by saying that we tried making a reservation but we were told to just show up. Glad we went early because there was a lineup. You can only stay for 1.5 hours (which is plenty of time).
I didn't like where we were seated because everyone standing at the entrance waiting to be seated watches you eat & it is truly uncomfortable.
That said, the food was incredible. The service was perfect & our overall thoughts of Souvlaki Bar is that we will be back. This is our new go to spot for sure!
The food was not good at all. The chicken was not fresh, & the sour cream in the tzakski tasted funny in the chicken pita. The potatos were dark, like old & not edible at all. The rice was clumpy, like fresh & old rice combined. I was very disappointed compared to the previous time in the summer, it was very good! The waitress was very pleasant & helpful. Exchanged the pita souvlaki with tzakski to one without. It was a Tuesday dinner. Will not be returning there again.
On s'est présentés là en couple un vendredi soir, sans réservation avant d'aller faire une activité & il y avait quelques places disponibles.
Nous avons vite été assignés à une table & quelques minutes plus tard, nous partagions'La pelletée de viande B', un repas pour deux, accompagné de pain Naan & de patates grecques. Nous avons bien mangé & à un budget fort raisonnable d'environ 25 $ par personne. J'aurais peut-être pris un peu de musique sur place pour ajouter à l'ambiance, mais ça demeure un endroit très recommandable :)
Le service est excellent, nous recevons nos assiettes très rapidement. Les portions sont généreuses & la nourriture est fraîche & savoureuse. Nous avons vécu une très belle expérience.
Everything was perfect. The amount of food you get for the price is incredible. It was all very fresh. The service was wonderful from the moment we walked in. Our server was very kind. Overall, a fantastic experience. This was our 1st time trying this restaurant & we will absolutely be back.
Excellent, nous avons l'habitude d'aller manger directement au restaurant, ce soir nous avons pris notre repas en takeout c'était délicieux pareil comme sur place!
