My good friend Leo took my wife & I to Greek Village for supper. We really enjoyed our meal. The Greek salads that we ordered were delicious. The tomatoes & vegetables were very fresh & the salad dressing was really very good. Also, the skewers of chicken souvlaki were very moist & cooked perfectly. Finally, we finished our meal with baklava which was drenched in honey & the best that I ever tasted. Also, the owner is a very nice & warm person. We highly recommend the restaurant.
I went to this restaurant yesterday & I really liked the warm welcome I received. We bought chicken & pork platters, which were of generous portions. The price is reasonable & I received candy before leaving since it was a day after Halloween & there were leftovers.
When a close friend from Greece insists a local spot tastes'just like back home,' you listen. That's how I found myself at Village Grec Souvlaki, a cozy, unassuming eatery in Montréal that delivers an authentic Greek experience with every bite. From the moment I stepped inside, the warm, taverna-like vibe-complete with Mediterranean accents & the hum of lively conversation, felt inviting.
The star of the show, as promised, is the'Village Grec Gyro'. Wrapped in a soft, pillowy pita, this humble-looking masterpiece is a flavor explosion. Thinly sliced meat is seasoned with a masterful blend of spices, charred to smoky perfection, & paired with crisp tomatoes & onions that crunch like they were plucked from a garden that morning. But the real magic lies in the tzatziki -creamy, tangy, & utterly essential, it elevates the gyro from great to unforgettable. My friend wasn't exaggerating: this is the taste of Greece, no passport required.
What surprised me most was the consistency. After two return visits, each gyro arrived with the same care & quality, a rarity in the fickle world of dining. The staff, friendly & efficient, wear their pride in tradition like a badge of honor, emphasizing their commitment to time-tested methods.
While the gyro alone justifies a pilgrimage, the menu teases other classics: souvlaki skewers sizzling off the grill, Greek salads bursting with feta & olives, & lemon-roasted potatoes that I've vowed to try next time. Takeout & outdoor seating options make it a versatile spot, whether you're craving a quick lunch or lingering over dinner with friends.
In a city brimming with trendy eateries, Village Grec Souvlaki stands out by keeping it simple. No fussy garnishes, no avant-garde twists-just fresh ingredients, tradition, & a commitment to authenticity that's as rare as it is delicious. As my friend said,'This is what it tastes like back home.' & after one bite, you'll believe it too.
In a million years, I never thought I would ever post a lack luster review for one of my all time favorite spots. But unfortunately, here it is. Today I ordered 2 chicken souvlaki on pita & Greek salad. I paid almost $30 which I honestly don't care about for the nostalgia factor but my 2 pitas had one dollop of tsatsiki at the front end of the pita, two half pieces of sliced tomato on each side & the skewer of chicken. Needless to say, there was no tomato or tsatsiki in the 2nd half of my pitas. The Greek salad had only 2 olives (but a decent piece of feta) & the container provided made it so that it leaked through the bag & made it difficult to carry without it getting all over me. Last time I went the pita were much better. So my review is a combo of both visits. As it sure was disappointing this time around, I'm sorry to say.
