Dans l'ensemble, les avis décrivent Tzatzi qui comme une charmante adresse grecque au Vieux Montréal avec des plats frais et savoureux, des portions généreuses et un service globalement chaleureux et attentif; l'ambiance et les cocktails sont souvent loués, les dips et la moussaka reviennent fréquemment, et beaucoup de convives disent qu'ils reviendront, même si quelques commentaires soulignent une variabilité dans la qualité des plats et un service parfois plus lent pour les groupes, ainsi qu'un souci de rapport qualité-prix.
I tried to get into this place last year during a trip to Montreal, but was unsuccessful as they were full. This year I went a little earlier & was able to get a seat at the bar - since I was solo & they were again very busy. This was a bit of luck, as the bartender, Jimmy, was a gem. He was taking care of the people seated at the bar, plus making all the drinks for the tables. He understood the assignment & kept my water glass full. (It is very hot in Montréal right now, & I was downing glass after glass of water.) He also made me a delicious limoncello spritz (which went down way too easily) & took my food order. I ordered the calamari as I'd had a late lunch & only wanted something light. My food arrived quickly & I wasn't disappointed. The calamari was lightly breaded, cooked to perfection & came with a lovely creamy, garlicky sauce. I did experience a bit of food envy when I saw the wonderful platters of dips with pita & kebab platters coming out of the kitchen for my fellow bar diners. Next trip to Montreal, I will reserve a table in advance & come with my full appetite to experience some of the wonderful dishes that I saw. I may even bring a friend!

We had a great evening on the patio. Food was delicious, staff was super nice. They let us stay & take our time as they were closing up. Grape vine leaves & fried zucchini were delicious, amongst many other things.
Food was great, service a bit, had to ask multiple times for more water but the staff were extremely friendly.. my only critique was the music playing.. while I enjoyed it, it didn't fit with the greek atmosphere.. should've been something authentic.. otherwise great place & I'd go back.
Too bad. The staff was friendly but not well organized. Drinks arrived after the main dish, also the starters came much too late. Pita was unfortunately not really warm & the Greek salad didn't really have any flavor. As Greek lovers, we wouldn't come back. Sorry. 3 stars as the service was at least friendly.
Nice location, cozy space, delicious calamari But the main dish I ordered for 2 people cost 95$ which was too much for 2 people (this portion could be enough for 4 people), lamb, chicken, beef, pork were all overcooked & dry. The service staff is unprofessional, she often forgets things, & doesn't seem to understand what the customer needs, even though my friend is from Montreal.
The food was delicious! We order a platter to share that included dips, salad, calamari, skewers, rice, fries, it was all delicious & could have fed 4 people honestly! Good service, super cute & cozy place!

Very good atmosphere, the food portion was very big! The two peoples' meal was enough for three adults. It's a chill place where you can peacefully enjoy the food & spend time with family or friends, could also be a nice cute date spot too.
On first vacation to Montreal with sister & 2 fabulous friends & stopped by for lunch during our visit to Old Montreal & the pier. WONDERFUL spot for tasty dips & lunch gyro platters!! Highly recommend for good food, service & atmosphere!! Would come again!! Thanks so much to Jimmy, Kassy, Arielle for the fabulous service!!
Service is fast , food is delicious, friendly staff. Happy hour from 5-7. Buy 1 beer & get 2nd one for free. Cozy place. Playing Greek music will certainly add additional flavor to the place.

The best Grecque restaurant in town!!! Rustic vibes & trendy. We went for a birthday with 60 guests the service was more than excellent, the food to die for, the ambiance just made it the most incredible experience. I recommend for any occasion!!! From the crisp of the fried zucchini's to the chicken to shrimp brochettes rice that brings you to heaven! A place to go!
My recent visit to a Greek restaurant in Old Montreal left me with mixed feelings. The charming decor & friendly service created a welcoming atmosphere, enhanced by the convenient location in the heart of Old Montreal. While the service was attentive & the staff made an effort to accommodate English-speaking guests, the highlight of any dining experience-the food-fell short. As a fan of Middle Eastern cuisine, I found the Greek flavors lacking & the overall taste disappointing. Considering the underwhelming food quality, the prices seemed steep, leaving me feeling unsatisfied with the value for money. Despite the pleasant ambiance & hospitality, the lackluster food experience overshadowed the positives of the restaurant.
As always, we try to sample as many items as we can. We started with Pikilia to share, which contained many of the entrées on the menu, all of which were impressively delicious. We also tried three of the five exquisite & well-seasoned dips. As a main course, we opted for the Souvlaki pitas (because our initial choice of moussaka was unfortunately unavailable). The meat was extremely tender, the sauce was excellent, & the pita was the most pillow-soft we've ever had. We also ordered the Jersey Shore fries purely for the name, but they were incredible too. We were tempted by desserts in the form of cheesecake & very enjoyable baklava. We expected the price to be a little on the high side given the location in the old port, but it was, in fact, a lot of food. We were pretty much full halfway through the appetizers. 😅 While the main courses were delightful, were we to return, we would try more entrées, dips, & salads, as they were the real stars of the show here.
The restaurant is cute & the staff are friendly. Sadly they don't have any vegan options, not even one which is a bit odd for a restaurant in 2024. They didn't offer any vegan off menu dishes either, so I ended up having a cucumber & tomato salad without the feta cheese. A rice & avocado bowl or a potato salad would have been nice. Hope they add a vegan dish so we can go back :)

Went with a friend of mine & ordered the platter for two, was phenomenal everything was delicious & fresh. Wish I asked for the server's name, she had bleach blonde hair with bangs & was an absolute sweetheart, took time to order, explained the menu & was super kind. Had a wonderful evening with my friend plus the decor was beautiful. Definitely will come back again!
Really nice decor, lighting & atmosphere inside & decent amount of seating spread out. Friendly service. The fries were great but the rest was a bit subpar. The Greek salad was lackluster in flavour & was soggy (mushy tomatoes & cucumber pieces, not fresh & crisp). The chicken (in both the skewer my wife got & in the wrap I got) was a bit dry & rubbery, as if it was overcooked &/or reheated. Rice was a little too salty. Chicken aside, the wrap was decent.
There are good options for lunch around the area, & this is one of those options, food is good, the drinks are good, & the servers are friendly. The fried calamari was amazing, & the pita sandwich was delicious. No one at our table was disappointed.
The starters are good, & very well proportioned. We had the kopanisti, fried calamari & fried zucchini - I enjoyed the starters. I had the lamb chops as a main it wasn't good at all, I didn't even eat it. Had an awful smell & taste. I did not say anything to the waiters. I tasted the chicken that my brother ordered & it was good. Fries & rice were tasty. The red velvet cheesecake was very tasty & not cheesy at all.
