Overall, the experience is often characterized by a home made quality that keeps long time customers returning, despite varied feedback on specific menu items and general comfort.
A decent restaurant in a strip plaza. I have not been to a Greek restaurant in Montreal for quite a few years & I always compared them favourably to the Toronto ones. It seems now, both Toronto-style food (rice &/or oven potatoes) & prices have moved to Montreal. Anyway, the food (calamari, pork souvlaki, lamb chops) was really good (& quite a lot). They were served with a large plate of the so-called greek salad (not the village variety) with a few trimmings of feta cheese for a small extra charge. There was no any portion of tzatziki served with the souvlaki, as it it customary in Toronto. The fries were the only negative point. They were cut in round slices, so thin that they were kind of burned & hard. All in all, a good meal but nothing special to warrant a return visit.
Excellent. We ordered an appetizer of scordalia it was too garlicky for our liking. I would not recommend it. We then had one pork stick, accompanied by a greek salad, for an extra $1.50, & fries. Delicious. A whole chicken breast, with a greek salad & rice was also ordered. The breast was boneless, skinless & juicy. Delicious. Because it was a Tuesday night it was quiet but reservations on the weekend are a must. Enjoy.
We have now been back several times & this place is definitely our go to Greek restaurant.
Two pieces of a quartered potato, cup of rice both overcooked. Salad okay. Chicken Little dry. $12 for tzatziki. SMH 🙄. Better off going to a fast food Greek restaurant.
This place is my Greek food go to. I didn't try their wines but can confirm their house sangria is incredible! Calamari is the best around; although pricy. Their half a Greek chicken, potatoes & salad are delicious. Down side, tzatiki isn't included with the dishes.
Tripolis est un excellent restaurant grec, je vous conseille fortement la salade verte, le poulet grec & ma conjointe raffole des Dolmades. Le kopanisti est très bon aussi ! Le seul hick c'est que c'est cher un peu, mais la qualité a un prix :)
I've been coming here for decades, & my latest visit has been the best one yet.
Each dish was excellent & the portions were as generous as ever. I highly recommend the house wine (red), the'everything salad', the grilled octopus, the fried zucchini, the saganaki & the grilled porc.
Our waiter was also excellent in making recommendations.
& to cap off our feast, the bill was fairly priced. For quality, portion & price, Tripolis is hands down the best authentic Greek experience in the area.
