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 a mixed picture of Souvlaki Bar, with many praising generous portions, fresh, flavorful Greek fare and friendly service that make you feel welcome, whether dining in or taking out. The atmosphere, decor and a variety of dishes like souvlaki, pitas, spanakopita and desserts such as baklava cheesecake are frequently highlighted as strong points. On the downside, a number of guests report inconsistent quality, including undercooked chicken and soggy or greasy calamari, oilier plates or overly heavy sides, and occasional order mix-ups or packaging issues when taking out. Still, the overall sentiment remains positive, with many diners intending to return for reliable comfort food at reasonable prices and to enjoy the authentic flavors and generous portions.
This is the second time in two weeks that I go there to buy some food & I am really disappointed about the way they prepared the chicken. It looks like they have change the chef or the people who prepared the chicken because it was uncooked & I didn't like the flavour. I also asked for a calamari rice the other day & the calamari were so soggy. I really very disappointed .
My friend treated me to a nice supper on Friday at Souvlaki Bar & I really enjoyed myself! The personnel, including our waiter Chris were very nice. The food was delicious! Will definitely go back.
Allez y c'est super bon.

Although I only had a lentil soup this time, I have been a half dozen times in the dining room & a few times for takeout & it is always great. My soup was delicious today & everyone enjoyed their bowls (pork & chicken) & salads. The service was friendly & efficient. We will return.
Excellent service to go along with authentic Greek food!
We went back to dine in & had an excellent meal with always great service. The spanakopita was excellent & not too oily. The mini souvlaki pitas are a great deal. W also had a souvlaki player which is always tasty, fresh & filling. & we finished it of with a delicious piece of baklava cheesecake 😋.... So good! We will return again soon. After diving here more than 5x in the last year, we can definitely say they are very consistent with their did & we have yet to have a bad experience.

Excellent service & staff à l'écoute des clients. Je commande régulièrement les salades souvlaki bar au poulet pour le lunch. Les portions sont généreuses. Touche authentique.
I went with my kids first day of the year, my 2 kids had KFC to eat, Me & my oldest were supposed to order adult meals for us, they refused us in, saying it is a franchise.. This was mean I did not like it! 😐
La nourriture est très bonne. Le demi poulet est un excellent rapport qualité-prix pour 2 personnes. Les bols gyros sont de bonnes portions à prix raisonnable. Le service est toujours impeccable surtout de la part de Chris, un service exceptionnel. Nous sommes toujours satisfaits à chaque fois.
Simple setup but the food was fresh & tasted really good, ordered the chicken & beef yero with fries & it was really tasty, great family place for a good meal that will not break the bank, Our server was also good & attentive which is all one can ask for when frequenting a restaurant
I ordered calamari, it was tasty but the nature of this plate is oily, I can't blame the quality, however the quantity is very big. I had a chicken plate also but I found the chicken & rice with extra oil too. Very very big cut of potatoes. Did I like it?! Yes, Do I go back? Not my taste.
Still I say it's a good restaurant.
Usually good, but had a bad experience First of all you should not be working in a restaurant when you are sick especially the one preparing the food. Secondly if you sneeze have a bit of dignity & wash your hands. One of the staff who was serving us sneezed a couple of times never went to clean or wash their hands & continued serving us our food. Have a bit of respect for your clients because without them you would not have a job. Respect for others goes a long way.
