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.
Dans l ensemble, les avis mettent en avant Souvlaki Bar pour une nourriture grecque fraîche et savoureuse ainsi qu une ambiance chaleureuse. L espace présente de vraies plantes et une décoration soignée que beaucoup trouvent accueillante. Le service est aimable et efficace, le personnel explique les plats et contribue à une visite agréable. Les expériences à emporter, notamment via Uber Eats, sont décrites comme savoureuses et d'un bon rapport qualité prix, avec des portions souvent généreuses. Quelques convives notent que certaines portions peuvent sembler plus petites, comme un pita coupé en deux, ce qui peut donner une impression de valeur inégale. L'ambiance et l'emplacement renforcent l'attrait, et beaucoup prévoient de revenir pour un autre repas.
Tonight was my third time at this specific location. The service was excellent. The portions are good. The sauce they serve with the fried calamari tastes cheap (yellow mustard mixed with mayo & mayo+ketchup: not very Greek, if you ask me).
We ordered the half chicken plate. The chicken was quite bland; there were barely any spices or garlic or lemon on the skin.
Their salad dressing is disappointing. It's bland & uninteresting (you don't taste that punch from olive oil, garlic, lemon & oregano you usually find in an authentic Greek dressing).
Their rice is usually good, but tonight, it was bland & more like cafeteria rice.
Finally, during a previous visit, I ordered a chicken souvlaki pita & tonight, I asked some tzatziki on the side & I can say without a doubt that there is something off with their tzatziki. I can't put my finger on it, but it is something I make regularly at home & that I ate at other Greek restaurants & theirs doesn't taste good.
This restaurant has great potential, but you can feel some laziness in the kitchen (or maybe in the administration?) because they tend to cut corners & they don't serve authentic Greek food.
EDIT, MARCH 26, 2026: Lately, I ordered the fillet of sole, a dish I had ordered several times before. They ALWAYS served TWO fillets of sole per plate. This time, though, they put ONLY ONE (probably thinking that their customers wouldn't realize it!). On top of that, instead of the mesclun lettuce they usually serve, they had the nerve to make their salad with ICEBERG lettuce!! That was it, for me. Never again. I will spend my money elsewhere.

My wife & I were craving Greek food during our visit to Montreal. It's located in a plaza, which turned out to be a win - parking was much easier here than at another spot we had originally considered. We dropped in for lunch, & it wasn't too busy, which made for a relaxed atmosphere. The staffs were incredibly kind & helpful, especially since the menu was in French. They took the time to explain everything & made us feel welcome. When the food arrived, we were pleasantly surprised by the generous portions - huge plates & everything looked delicious. It was really tasty! We opted one of the plate with no rice & asked for extra salad instead, & even then, the servings were more than enough. The mocktails were also spot on - refreshing & flavorful. All in all, it was a great find & on the list next time we're back in Montreal!
We passed by @svkbar for a quick dinner before a night out. A spacious & inviting establishment, we were greeted by the aroma of Greek spices & grilled meats. We ordered the calamari plate, which was a very large portion size, served alongside a refreshing salad & decent fries. The calamari was well-cooked, tender on the inside & crispy on the outside. We also had the grilled octopus, which was well-prepared with a smoky char that added depth. Most of it was good, but it got a little chewy near the thicker part, & we didn't finish it. A restaurant that offers ample seating for guests to enjoy their meals in a comfortable & lively atmosphere. The large bar area boasts an extensive drink menu, making it a decent spot for very large groups & parties.
Souvlaki Bar St. Léonard is a Greek restaurant located next to Galeries d'Anjou. The restaurant is spacious with tall ceilings, giving it an open & airy feel. The food & service are good, making for a pleasant dining experience. Additionally, there's plenty of parking available, which is convenient. Overall, it's a great spot for enjoying Greek cuisine in a comfortable setting.
