Across numerous reviews, Tzatzi qui in Old Montreal is described as a warm, cozy Greek spot with a welcoming vibe that suits both casual dinners and celebrations. The food is often praised for being fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned, with favourites like dips and tzatziki, calamari, gyros, souvlaki, and moussaka highlighted. Service is consistently lauded for attentiveness and warmth, with bartenders and servers noted for good recommendations and friendly, seamless handling of groups. The atmosphere ranges from intimate and romantic to lively and social, with charming decor, soft lighting, and a patio that many guests enjoy. On some visits the food has fallen short for a few diners, with meat that was overcooked or dry, or dishes that did not meet expectations, and on busy nights reservations were recommended. Prices are generally fair for the quality and portions, though a handful of reviewers considered the value higher end for the area. Overall, the reviews present Tzatzi qui as a standout Greek option in the area with a strong emphasis on friendly service, a warm ambiance, and delicious, shareable plates that make many guests eager to return.
We went here for dinner & it was so lovely!!! The food was incredible & the service was excellent. We ordered the chicken skewer plate & shared it & highly recommend it. It was the kind of meal you feel good after eating & you can tell they use high quality ingredients.

We have had two wonderful experiences at Tzatzi-qui. We enjoyed the atmosphere, service & the food. The chicken slouvaki & the gyro plate were our favourites! We finished both nights off with baclava of course. So good. Jimmy was excellent & made us feel right at home. We highly recommend this Greek restaurant if you are eating in old Montreal.
We stumbled on this place in Old Montreal & are so glad we did! We loved the atmosphere & the diversity of the menu. Everything looked so good I had a hard time making a decision, but ended up with the seafood salad. It was exceptional! They have a great drinks list, too. I was able to try Greek wine for the first time & really enjoyed it. Our server, Florence, was fantastic. It was busy & a bit chaotic at the time we went, but she handled everything like a pro & had a smile on her face the entire time. We can't wait to come back the next time we're in Montreal & highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for quality food, wonderful service, & a great ambience.
Highly recommend! We did the chef's platter & an order of dolma. Some of the best dolma we've ever had & the kopanisti dip was inspiring! The proteins were all cooked perfectly & the service was great. Definitely don't miss this restaurant if you're in Montreal & need a delicious meal for a very reasonable price!
Cozy little spot with great food! The service was decent & there's a nice atmosphere. We shared the chef's platter & it was huge. Some favourites from the platter were the dips & the shrimp skewer! Prices were reasonable for the area. Great spot for a date night or family dinner. I would highly recommend!
Le restaurant Tzazi-qui est un vrai coup de coeur ! L'ambiance est chaleureuse & l'endroit est superbe. Les brochettes de poulet étaient délicieuses, tendres & bien assaisonnées, accompagnées d'une sauce tzatziki parfaitement crémeuse qui porte bien le nom du restaurant. Un grand merci à Nour, la serveuse, qui a été incroyablement gentille & attentive, s'assurant que nous ne manquions de rien. Une expérience à recommander sans hésiter !
My wife & I recently dined at restaurant. We were served by both Florence & Ariel. It was an incredibly memorable experience. Certainly one of the best dining experiences we've ever had in Montreal & we come to the city often almost every year. The quality of the service was only by the quality of the food. It was exceptional, & I would highly recommend anyone attending.
Merci beaucoup pour cette soirée magique! Je recommande, surtout pour un anniversaire 🎂 Merci à Florence pour cette soirée merveilleuse & cette soirée réussite !

Nous avons été accueillît par Florence , un service impeccable avec un sourire !!! ce qui est rendu très rare de nos jours, Jonathan est passé à nôtre table pour nous parler des spécialités, ce restaurant offre un menu frais délicieux & les portions sont généreuse & que dire de la sauce tzatziki ( la meilleure que j'ai mangé) le restaurant était complet durant le dîner que dire de plus ! Je le recommande à n'importe qui sans hésiter! Encore Merci pour l'expérience simple mais attentionné!
Food was good. Don't order extra tzatziki as they give you lots. Service was really good. & the atmosphere was amazing. I would recommend this restaurant.
Excellent service, everything on time, excepcional quality & tasty, we ordered skewers & pita for 3 but was more than enough. Absolutely recommended. Stuff was lovely & the atmosphere AWESOME!!
The food & service were great! We also had mockails & beer. I loved the Karamela mockatail, which was recommended by the bartender. We will definitely return to this place in our next visit to Montreal. I was impressed by the atmosphere & the decor. We were just passing by, & my partner saw it. We did not make a reservation, but one of the staff members offered us the bar area. He was really attentive & friendly.
This place is absolutely stunning! I wanted to give it a 5 but my food was beyond chewy. I ordered the octopus, it was plated so beautifully. I expected an easy to cut soft texture. Unfortunately it was super hard to cut & extremely chewy. I'm typically a huge fan of octopus, so I was pretty disappointed. I still shared my meal & ate what I could. Everyone else's meal looked great. The jersey shore fries were bomb! Our group enjoyed it throughly. The service was excellent. All of the staff were very friendly & welcoming. We were visiting from Toronto. I can't say enough about the decor here. I would honestly recommend it for a photo op with your girls or as a couple. They nailed the Greek aesthetic. Definitely would recommend trying them out!
