Souvlaki George consistently emerges as a beloved Greek spot with juicy gyros, fresh salads, and generous portions at good value, and a welcoming vibe thanks to friendly service and attentive staff. Reviews praise the chicken pita and lamb gyro, flavorful rice and potatoes, and refreshing tzatziki, while noting that renovations added comfortable indoor seating and a patio option. The restaurant is described as authentic with consistently high quality, quick service, and a sense that the place remains a reliable go to for students, locals, and visitors seeking warm hospitality and honest, home style Greek cooking.
It was my first time back since the renovation in 2021. We were in a rush, so we called in our order ahead of time to dine in. Adrian was very courteous. We arrived a bit late, so he reheated our food to ensure it was served hot. We had the lamb gyro & the chicken gyro with fries. Everything was delicious, but I preferred the chicken pita over the lamb.

INSANE food at this restaurant, especially the gyro. I've tried a lot of gyros in Montreal & this one is super super juicy, tender & very flavorful. I'm also a big fan of their Alex Poutine (it should be in the list of best poutines).
The dinning area is small so it you can, take put of eat on their patio.
Edit: Try the new apple pastry - delicious & freshly baked!
I love this place. My partner & I ordered chicken gyros (mine with salad). The chicken gyros are made with grilled chicken breast, fresh & hot, lightly seasoned, just the right amount of dressing, & light on the salt, which I appreciate. The salad was made with fresh romaine lettuce.
The portions are generous, & it's a good place to have a casual meal on the terrasse with friends, since the menu items are easy to share & the prices are fair. They now serve spanakopita, which I hope to try next time. I see that there are stools & a counter for dining indoors now, since the renovations were finished. Even though it was busy, the service was quick & friendly.
I know that the last few years have been tough for the restaurant business, so cheers to them for keeping it going, & let's all support local, family-run places the next time we dine out.
Soo gooood! I got the gyro & wooow ! I'm still thinking about it the next day lol the pita is soo fresh & so was the salad! We ubered it but I'll definitely be going back

Best Greek food in town. I recommend this restaurant hands down to anyone. Got to experience this amazing family owned place following my sister's recommendation & I've since been a regular weekly customer.
Enjoy the gyros pita: the best!
It was actually my first time going to this restaurant, & the guy there was super nice & helpful, he recommended me on what to eat & everything. & I can say that it did not disappoint, the food was soo good, I took the Gyro Pita & some potatoes as a side, I was shocked by how filling it was, & all of that for $17. Worth it!! I will definitely come back :)
October 11th : What was up with the calamari? It was very basic was not like the calamari from previous orders. Felt like frozen grocery store calamari Everything else was still good though! Especially lamb skewers! 2 weeks ago: Best gyro meat I have had in a very long time for this price point (& I have tried many) Calamari, the chicken & lamb kababs were all cooked to perfection & the taste was nice too! Everything was honestly very delicious.
Delicious, Savory traditional Greek food at this second generation family owned restaurant! Its very modest price is perfect for the community around Loyala Campus! The beef & lamb gyros taste 😘 Took the entree with olives, different types of dips & rice wrapped in Vineleaf. The flavours are mind blowing. The pita, warm & fluffy ☁️🤩 Ill be right back! Here to have the perfect summer food date in their cute terasses ☀️

If you're looking for Authentic Greek food that reaches your soul, you are at the right place !! The gyros is out of this world , the pita is soft & fluffy, the sauce with fries & onions ... lovely place!!!
I've been ordering from Souvlaki George my whole life & in my opinion, it's a highly underrated Greek spot. Their gyro pita, chicken, pork are all delicious!!! I'm not even a fan of French fries & I find them the best. Everything is made in house, including the salad dressing which is also so good. It's a family-owned restaurant & they're so sweet. Great service. Big terrasse in the summer to dine in outside. Highly recommend ordering your Greek food from there from now on (they have their own drivers - go through them directly!)
I was greeted with a warm welcome & the menu was explained to me thoroughly-something I really appreciate! The food was amazing here. There were so many flavours travelling through my mouth with the gyro wrap ! I love the fact that it's near to my old university. Makes a nice uni spot
