Au cours de sa tournée nord-américaine, la Superstar grecque Mihalis Hatzigiannis a découvert Melina Mammas, une jeune chanteuse grecque canadienne, fille de Lawrence Mammas, et a été invitée à dîner à La Belle & La Boeuf où il a été tellement impressionné par le groupe qu’il a proposé un partenariat pour apporter une cuisine authentique grecque Souvlaki, avec un concept Foodtastic à Montréal. Voilà que Souvlaki Bar est né, ouvrant notre premier magasin le 12 septembre 2014. Plus de 5000 personnes ont assisté à la grande fête d’ouverture où Mihalis et Melina ont joué à l’extérieur devant plusieurs fans heureux. Chez Souvlaki Bar : nous garantissons la fraîcheur et la qualité de nos ingrédients, d’où vient notre slogan : Je suis fresh.

Overall, Souvlaki Bar comes across as a dependable choice for casual meals, celebrations, and family outings, delivering great flavor and a warm Greek hospitality vibe that brings people back.
Really enjoyed this place for a quick bite. The staff was super friendly, & the traditional souvlaki I ordered was hot, fresh, & very tasty. Lots of vegetables, rice & the tzatziki was extraordinary. The portion was enormous to me 😁 Plenty of seating, clean tables, & fast service. Would visit again!

A go-to spot for a comforting & fulfilling meal at a reasonable price. They offer delicious off-menu specialties like lamb chops & the catch of the day. The staff were friendly, the ambiance was casual & comfortable, ideal for a family outing.
I had an amazing experience at this restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, especially the grilled chicken breast, which was cooked perfectly & full of flavor. The portions were huge & very generous, so you definitely get your money's worth. The service was great-everyone was friendly & attentive
Service & ambiance impeccables, de plus les portions sont parfaites avec des aliments frais & une cuisson irréprochable. Je suggère fortement ce souvlaki Bar.
The food at this location seems to be prepared better than other locations. I really enjoyed their biftekia. They were not over cooked & still juicy. I also had gyro porc pita & the amount of sauce was just right & the portion was generous. Our waiter was friendly & efficient.
Je tiens à remercier chaleureusement Mr Jerry, l'hôte d'accueil pour son attention & son professionnalisme. Il a pris grand soin de ma demande particulière concernant mon repas, s'assurant que celui-ci soit préparé sans poivre ni épices, ce qui était essentiel pour ma santé. Son écoute & sa bienveillance ont rendu mon expérience agréable & rassurante. Un service exemplaire qui mérite d'être souligné ! Merci encore à Jerry pour cette belle attention.
Je remercie aussi notre serveuse Andréas pour son très bon service professionnel.
Nothing wrong about the restaurent itself or the crew. All was good. My rating is about how much I loved the taste of the food which is personal preferences.
So myself comparing the souvlaki to turkish or iranian BBQs, I would chose the turkish as 1 & iranian 2 & Souvlaki 3.
I've been going to the souvlaki bar for a while & every time I go there it's like I'm tasting it for the first time. Again, it's so nice. Such a good flavor & it's one of my favorite Greek bars to go to. definitely recommend
All around an amazing experience. I always come back here for the delicious food & the excellent service, but they outdid themselves with the flowers on Mother's Day today.
