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.
Reviews paint Souvlaki Bar as a warm, welcoming spot with attentive service and a comfortable, homey vibe, where generous portions and good value pair with a menu featuring souvlaki, gyros, salads, and cocktails or mocktails. Food is praised for freshness and flavor, with standout mentions of tender chicken souvlaki, tasty calamari gyro, and satisfying plates that are easy to share; the drinks are described as enjoyable and refreshing. Accessibility and parking are noted positively, and staff are repeatedly described as friendly and helpful, sometimes adding thoughtful touches for birthdays. While several locations deliver consistently, a few comments point to decor or cleanliness varying by branch and occasional longer wait times for takeout or busy periods. Overall, the consensus is that Souvlaki Bar offers a reliable, reasonably priced Greek dining option worth returning to for a casual night out with friends.
We had a wonderful experience at this souvlaki restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, & full of flavor. The atmosphere is very warm & cozy, which made the whole meal even more enjoyable.
I especially loved the real green plants in the space, it feels so much nicer & more natural compared to many other locations that only use artificial plants. The photos & memories displayed on the walls were also very interesting & gave the place a unique & welcoming character.
& of course, the young woman who served our table was very friendly, which made our visit even better.
We truly enjoyed our time here & will definitely come back.

Mes amies & moi sommes allées dîner samedi, ce fut une très belle expérience! La serveuse Sylvia est excellente & très sympathique! Elle nous a bien conseillé & son service était impeccable.
Je suis en fauteuil roulant & je n'ai eu aucun problème avec l'accessibilité, le stationnement ainsi que le salle de bain. Très bon repas & une belle variété de cocktails!
J'ai commandé une salade je l'ouvre je tombe sur cet insecte vert de la même couleur que la salade . On voit à quel point il prenne le temp de bien laver leur produit avant de les servir à leur client.
Une chance pr moi je les remarquer avant de manger. Probablement que d'autre client ont manger une salade avec le même insecte dedans & ne le sauront jamais.
Good server the woman was lovely, prices are affordable, calm atmosphere, food was excellent but the gyro were very greasy. the fries are excellent, the salad too. the rice was soso but we can't complain for the amount/price ratio. i recommend the calamari gyro. i also recommend to skip the entrees, they aren't bad just nothing special. they offer alcohol & alcohol free drinks. the lady heard our conversation & knew abt my birthday & surprised us with a free carrot cake with a candle. so sweet of her.
Underrated place in my opinion. Me & my colleague ordered the meat shovel for 2 & we ate like kings for a good price. We brought back a big left over plate with us also. When you look at the restaurant from outside it seems small & normal but once you step inside you will find a nice decor with a very spacious space. I recommend it if you want to change from eating shawarma all the time ;)
