Souvlaki Vieux Grec is seen as a reliable spot for authentic Greek dishes with many praising flavorful gyros, pita, souvlaki, salads, and fresh ingredients, along with friendly and fast service and a welcoming BYOB atmosphere; the place is repeatedly described as a good value with lunch specials and a solid choice for casual meals or family gatherings, though some comments point to inconsistent service, longer pickup waits, a small dining area with little room to wait, and occasional concerns about price or portion size on certain visits.
Un petit resto ordinaire, pas de fla fla, les gens sympathiques, un service rapide & la brochette de poulet avec salade grecque Miam! Parfait pour un repas sur le pouce, je le recommande.

Niko is the best. I am sure that he serves everybody perfectly. But in my experience, what is different, unusual about him, is that he knows how to'read' the customer. What kind of a person the customer is, in what mood he is, & how to handle him, accordingly. Not taking advantage of him, no, not at all. Just, to serve him the way he will appreciate.
It is a skill.
I think that I also met, surreptitiously, with someone who seemed to be the owner of the place. If that is so, he was a very nice person.
As for the'little sister' of Niko (that's how he presented her to me, at the Cash), she is so good at such a crucial job, that she is destined to run this place at much higher administrative levels. Officially & in all regards, not just in special matters.
The food was fantastic. We savored numerous items on the menu, entrées & main dishes, & they were all very, very good. Fresh, authentic, well prepared & cooked. The real thing. (& I have been in restaurants in Athens & Crete… cf.my reviews about them, in this Google-reviews system…
)
This was Athens or Crete, in Montreal. As far as that is possible.
Then again, I have not been to Sparta yet...
The prices are quite decent, in these crazy time when it has become normal to order some pasta plate at 40$ !!
& you bring your own wine (minimum 100$ dollars saved, on your bill…)
The place is beautiful. Well situated, nicely designed, warm & cozy.
No parking problems. A nice terrace, if you prefer to have a drink &/or a drink &/or eat outside, under the porch (in late Spring, Summer or early Autumn... this is Canada !)
The best place in town to have a wonderful family gathering. (Or for any other occasion also, of course, I am sure. But my review is about the moments that I enjoyed in this excellent restaurant. & I always try to talk only about what I know, personally & directly, assuredly).
Niko will know who I am. & we shall meet again, for sure, shortly.
Got 2 plates with fries, 2 sticks of chicken souvlaki each, & a Greek salad for $71.( ps: takeout)
We will not be back. The salad was very ordinary, with onions cut extremely large & barley any seasoning. The chicken lacked flavor. We've had much better in both Laval & Montreal-for a lot less money!
Was there last night, & have been there several times. Their gyro is amazing!! We bring a bottle of white Greek wine with us to top up our meal & enjoy it even more.
