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.
Os pratos sao enormes.... um pedido atende tranquilamente duas pessoas. A atendente fois muito atenciosa e simpática. Com certeza tenho interesse em voltar.
We asked for a starter & a plate, the calamari rings & the half chicken plate. The calamari rings were extremely chewy, & it felt like having some kind of rubber. The chicken plate was a bit better, yet the potatoes were over-spiced & overcooked that you could not hold it with the fork. The chicken taste was bland & did not have anything special.

Je suis arrivée a 20:30, le resto ferme a 21h. Il y avait 5 personnes qui y travaillaient. Il est indiqué d'attendre qu'un membre du personnel nous assigne une table. J'ai attendu jusqu'à 20:40 que quelqu'un vienne massigner une table, & on m'a dit que le resto fermait a 21h, donc de faire vite. J'entendais les membres du personnel mécontent a l'arrière. ...... Ça aurait été plus vite s'ils avaient arrêté de chigner en arrière du comptoir pendant 10mins avant de m'asseoir a une table, & ensuite, remettre la pression sur moi, mais bon.
We were very pleased with the food & the service! Gabby the waitress was amazing!! The meat shoval for meat lovers was amazing & the chicken souvlaki was tastly & tender. those greek patatoes ..mmmmmm I recomend this restaurant!!

Souper de groupe 12 personnes samedi 7 décembre. Première fois pour moi. Super service de notre serveur si je me souviens bien, Pierre Alexandre...le repas excellent Je vais y retourner c'est sur & certain
Assez déçu de ma première visite dans cette chaine de restaurants grec.. Tsé, quand faut que tu demandes des ustensiles & des napkins parce que personne n'a pensé à nous en donner avec notre repas... ouf! Nous avons commandé des calmars frits. Ils semblaient fort prometteurs. Toutefois, assez difficile à manger (caoutchouteux). La panure & les sauces était correctes. Plat principal, assiette de pita gyro au poulet avec patates grecques & salade. Je m'attendais à de bonnes patates rôti avec assaisonnement. Non, reçu des quartiers de patates toutes pâteuses avec une sauce style poutine. Le gyro était bon par contre.

First time there & quite disappointed. I don't think I will eat there again. The souvlaki pita was dry & the pita had pronounced uncook floor taste. Chicken was super dry. The octopus was a total miss & simply not good. This is not how to cook octopus!
La nourriture très bonne, bon service, mais la musique des chants grecs est très forte & désagréable. J'ai fait part à la serveuse qui n'a pas aimé mon commentaire, suite à ma demande, il y a eu changement de serveur. Peu importe où nous sommes assis, il est difficile d'échanger avec la personne en face. C'était ma 2e fois à ce restaurant, mais la 1re fois la serveuse avait baissé le son & vérifier que cela convenait aux gens à la table. Bref, un restaurant est un lieu de discussion & non une discothèque.
