Overall, reviews for Village Grec highlight authentic Greek cuisine with generous portions and fresh, flavorful ingredients, especially gyro, souvlaki and mixed platters, at good value. The service is consistently described as fast, courteous and attentive, contributing to a welcoming, cozy atmosphere. Diners note that portions are substantial and dishes are well balanced, with consistent praise for pita, salads, tzatziki and Greek potatoes. A few comments mention occasional inconsistencies or changes since a new owner, and one or two notes about the ambiance or cleanliness, but these are far outweighed by positive experiences. The restaurant is regarded as a reliable go-to for Greek cuisine, popular for gatherings and regular outings, with many noting the overall quality and hospitality that keep people coming back.
Home made authentic Greek food. Went for a lunch. Very good lunch menu with a main dessert & coffee. 20 to 25 $ p.p.
Service was welcoming & efficient. Food was tasty, fresh & the portions generous enough to have a 2nd lunch to warm up tomorrow.
It's a bit off the beaten path but worth the small detour.
My first time trying them considering the overwhelming positive reivew. Tried the Chicken gyro pita & their Porc & Lamb gyro pita.
The good stuff: The portion & size was generous, their tzaziki is on the watery side due to the fact that there is a lot of cucumber bits but delicious with a sharp lemon acidity, wished it was slightly thicker but overall a good sauce.
The bad: Their protein was so underwhelmingly seasoned, lack salt, lack herbs, lack spices, its the first time in my life that I sprinkled salt in my gyro pita (I had over 20 greek restaurants experience, & I never had to do this, even in a mediocre food court Greek chain). The chicken gyro was even worst, it was blander than costco's rotisserie chicken. I am not sure if I tried on a wrong day but this was beyond unacceptable. The fries they put inside the gyro is cloying & also unsalted. Spreading of tzaziki is not well balanced, 2/3 down the gyro, there was no more sauce.
Very inviting & cozy atmosphere. Greek village style. The service was very quick & courteous. Professional. I had the gyro pita plate with some taramosalata. Very reasonably priced. Also lots of parking. Will definitely go back.
My all time favourite go-to Greek restaurant! Gyro is always fresh & moist, decent portion sizes. Prices have gone up quite a bit from when I first started going, but still can't beat the taste. Always back to satisfy my cravings!
The place has not been renovated in maybe 30 years & the parthenon like painting in the main dining area actually looks like it may be the original. All this to say that you dont come here for the atmosphere, to see or to be seen. You come here for Greek fast food prepared as if your value conscious mother ran that restaurant kitchen. Here is a little secret. They buy air chilled chicken (as opposed to water cooled) so that when they marinate it to make the chicken sticks or brochettes the air chilled chicken can better absorb the marination. You taste it in every bite. It is probably the best tasting chicken stick in town. Combine that with their oven roasted potatoes with green salad & rice & you now understand why the greek gods ain't leaving. One other important mention is value. I took my wife out with my sister & my two nieces & we all ate more than what we can handle & the bill came to $160 taxes & tip included (no alcohol or soft drinks & no dessert). In today's hyper inflation environment that is a deal. Enjoy.
I have tried the Loukanikio & Biftekakia platters, both were very delicious & the portions were more than generous.
Tzatziki is rich & thick with no shortage of garlic. Greek salad had fresh, crisp tomatoes & cucumbers, piquant onion & high quality feta & olives.
Service has been very friendly & welcoming on both occasions. Interior has a cozy Mediterranean decor. There is full bar service with decent selection.

I'm no connoisseur of Greece, but this was the best Greek food I've ever had!
We each had the combo platter & they're huge. Two choices of meat, in pita or on rice, with Greek potatoes & salad. The meats are perfectly seasoned, juicy & tender. After sharing the mixed appetizer platter, it was way too much! You get a lot of value at this place!
The service was quick, attentive & friendly. It's a great family restaurant.
During my recent visit to Village Grec in Laval, I had the pleasure of experiencing exceptional service from Christina, who truly elevated our dining experience. From the moment we walked in, she greeted us with a warm, genuine smile that immediately made us feel welcome. Her friendly & approachable nature set the perfect tone for the evening.
What truly sets Christina apart is her incredible attention to detail. She ensured that every aspect of our meal was perfect, from making personalized recommendations based on our preferences to checking in at just the right moments-without ever being intrusive. She knew the menu inside & out & was more than happy to answer any questions, offering thoughtful suggestions that made our meal even more enjoyable. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our experience & went above & beyond to make sure everything was to our liking.
Beyond her professionalism, Christina's kindness & enthusiasm were remarkable. She engaged with us in a way that felt authentic & effortless, making sure we felt valued as customers, not just another table to serve. She maintained the perfect balance of attentiveness & warmth, ensuring that we were comfortable & happy throughout the meal.
Having great food is one thing (& Village Grec certainly delivers on that!), but having exceptional service like Christina's makes all the difference. She transformed what could have been just another restaurant visit into a truly memorable experience. If you're looking for delicious Greek cuisine paired with outstanding hospitality, Village Grec in Laval is the place to go-& if you're lucky enough to have Christina as your server, you're in for a real treat!
I had an amazing experience at Restaurant Souvlaki Grec, especially with their Greek Platter. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, from the juicy grilled meats to the crisp salad & flavorful tzatziki. Every bite tasted authentic & well-seasoned.
What truly stood out was their willingness to customize the plate. Whether you prefer extra meat, more salad, or a specific side, they accommodate requests with a smile. The portions were generous, & the balance of flavors made for a satisfying meal.
With great food, fresh ingredients, & excellent service, this is the perfect spot for Greek cuisine lovers. Highly recommended!
Greece inside Laval! I liked the greek beer, The food was very good, tasty & more than enough if you are hungry. A very remarkable thing for me was the decoration of the restaurant. Wherever you see you will identify greek elements. The attention was fast & very kind. I am happy that I was able to travel to Greece during my lunch break! :-)
