We ate there last night, but unfortunately it wasn't up to spec. My companion ordered the chicken brochette plate & I ordered a gyro with salad & fries.
First the positive things:
It looks like tables have returned to the dining room, which would be nice on a rainy day. If you haven't been here, most of the service is takeout & delivery, or dining on the large terrasse when the weather is good.
The server was friendly & helpful & we received our meals quickly. The restaurant was bright & clean as always.
But,
The chicken brochette plate had overcooked, soggy rice, & the potato wedges were quartered, making them overly large. They appeared overcooked & my friend said that there wasn't much lemon seasoning on them. He said that the brochette, along with the rest of the grilled items, were warm, not hot, even though they were served quickly.
I can understand why food might be warm when it's takeaway, like Uber, but not when it's dine-in.
The tomatoes in my gyro were oversized slices, not wedges, but I was able to eat them with a knife & fork along with my salad. The chicken was somehow overcooked, yet not hot, at the same time, & was under seasoned. Parts of it tasted like it hadn't been carved correctly, with tough bits left in, then grilled.
The overall effect was of things that had been sitting under a heat lamp for a while, bland & overdone.
Being someone who would never send food back to the kitchen & doesn't want to make a fuss during dinner rush, I hesitated about writing a bad review.
I'm probably not their most frequent customer, but I didn't recognize anyone there last night. Are they under new ownership? If so, there are big shoes to fill, because it's a neighbourhood institution, but I really hope they can fix the quality issues, because I love this place & want it to succeed.
Souvlaki George is a legendary spot in NDG for a very good reason. Their chicken souvlaki pita is absolutely incredible, packed with tender, well marinated meat & fresh tzatziki sauce. I have been coming here for years & the flavors are always authentic & deeply satisfying. The portions are huge, offering fantastic value for your money. The staff is incredibly fast & efficient, even when the line is out the door.
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.

What an amazing place, the food & the service top notch. I had the chicken pita, & the owner gave me two milk rise for free. Thank you 😊. I will definitely come back.
Been coming here for a while & it honestly never disappoints. The chicken is always juicy, perfectly grilled, & the portions are solid. The rice & potatoes are super flavorful & the tzatziki is fresh every time.
Just tried their new Double Plate Deal (2 chicken plates for $30) & it's actually a great value, especially if you're sharing.
You can tell they care about consistency. Definitely one of my go-to Greek spots in Montreal.
On Sunday they were out of rice bowls & some chicken items, so I tried their pitas, it comes with tomatoes & some sour cream, it tastes good if we ask to make it spicy otherwise it's sour!! They too have some options for sweets, will try some other time !!! There's more outdoor sitting than indoors. Clean & hygienic environment. Overall good experience.
Always delicious! Best Greek food in Montreal, the lamb & chicken are so tasty & grilled to perfection✨ & the young man working the front is the kindest- always smiling & provides outstanding customer service!
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.
