My mom liked the Slovakia bar full of rice, steamed potatoes & the Greek salad with a hint of cheese & the Zara was very good. My family enjoys it. My dad too. My grandma & me would come again & would recommend to friends & family.
A go-to spot for a comforting, fulfilling, & reasonably priced meal. The Meat-Shovels for two was an excellent value.
The Greek style chicken was my wife's must-have dish.
Fresh Greek fare, delicious feta, gyros. Kings menu offering pita or rice- healthy options.
Unfortunately the lunch menu takes over an hour for salad & gyros. Wait staff didn't offer us neither the drink nor the dessert offered in the menu. Very disappointing.
This is my favorite Greek restaurant & I never had to complain on the food. Last night though I was disappointed. One chicken stick, potatoes & salad, didn't want the rice. The potatoes seemed just cut, no spice. The chicken lacked spices & juice. The tzatiki had no salt, very bland. My salad had no salt & was very bland. I don't know if the regular chef was in vacation but my meal was missing that Souvlaki Bar special unique taste. Service was great & the staff are wonderful.
I came today oct 17 2020, let me thank you for this shovel & loukaniko you gave me, you're magic, thanks for staying open, you do a wonderful job!!
2 years later, kalamaria still rules!
2025 still one of the best!!
Great Greek food at Centrpolis Laval. We've been coming since they first opened.
Their Greek potatoes & gyros & souvlakis are delicious.
They even have lunch specials which iare a great deal. We had the chicken pita trio, which came with a drink & salad, & the meat shovel meal for one. Mixed chicken & pork gyro meat is presented in a small shovel with Greek potatoes & pita, & a huge portion of salad.
Great ambience & very spacious, with a terrasse & an upper floor.
The food here is so delicious. The staff is very friendly & welcoming. They play Greek music while eating Greek food. As someone who's greek herself, the food here is amazing & authentic. If you're looking to come here in a bigger group, I'd recommend getting a reservation.
The food was good overall. We ordered the gyro bowl & the pork gyro plate. The gyro bowl had too many onions, & the portion sizes were a bit too large. Unfortunately, the drinks were terrible. We tried the jardin de gin & the Greek mojito. The Greek mojito was okay but had an overpowering licorice flavor. The jardin de gin was undrinkable, lacking the sourness needed to balance the sweetness, making it overly sweet & unpleasant. The service was even worse. We were seated & then forgotten. We had to flag down a waiter, & while the food arrived quickly, the drinks did not. With only about eight tables occupied, most either already had their drinks or weren't drinking, yet we had to get up & remind the staff about ours. Overall, while the food was decent, the drinks were disappointing, & the service needs improvement.

Had pork souvlaki pita...it was really good...tzatziki was good...great plate & worth the price...& I'm greek & former restaurant owner, so I know what I'm talking about
I am a Greek Food lover in general, my first visit to this restaurant with my wife, the food was good . However, I ordered a platter of Greek salad with an extra of chicken. I noticed that there was no dressing in the salad, & the extra chicken bites were uneatable !
The waiter suggested to replace it with a dessert which we agreed. In general it's a nice place with reasonable prices & quantities..
The place was packed, which is always a good sign.
With reservation, we got in within 10 min of our booking time, which is very reasonable for a Saturday night.
We had the meat shovel, which contained pork, chicken biftekia & loukamino, plus tzaziki & Greek style potatoes, $35.00 for two people. Very good portion & everything was tasty. Family style dining, good basic food ,no one went home hungry.
Great outing at reasonable price. with drinks, tax ,tip , approx. $100 for two.
I would recommend this place for a casual lunch, dinner.
