J'y suis allé avec un couple d'amis, il y a environ 1 mois. La laitue n'était pas fraiche dans les salades & les plats principaux n'étaient pas à la hauteur de ce que j'ai eu comme expérience avant la pandémie. Dommage !
We went to Zante for my aunts birthday, we were 11 people. They have a'set menu' 80$ per person. They put appetizers on the table to share then everyone picks their own main out of some choices. We waited so long to get the appetizers, one of them was the Greek salad so that should have been quick. No joke like 45 minutes until we got some food. Everything was visually pleasing but didn't satisfy. The waitress was really nice but when it was time to pay & we asked for split bills & her annoyance was spread across her face. She ended up confirming everyone's orders ( each couple ordered their own drinks ) then came back 25 minutes later & stated that any party over 10 people they don't split bills it's too complicated. It was a big turn off. As a waitress the first thing you should ask before anything is if it's just 1 bill or separate. I could have gone back there & done the math. We ended up just averaging the amount each of us had to pay & putting it on the machine separately but come on.
What a restaurant.. These people know what they're doing. This is the most Greek authentic food you can get in Montreal when it comes to Greek Mediterranean food. The flavors are robust & vibrant, perfectly capturing the essence of Greece. The moment you step inside, you're greeted by a warm, inviting atmosphere that transports you straight to a taverna on a sun-soaked island. The service is impeccable, with staff who are passionate about the cuisine & eager to share their recommendations. Each dish is crafted with fresh ingredients & traditional recipes, making it a culinary experience that is hard to match. Don't forget to try their homemade zukini with tzatziki deep ,tge octapus akd lambchops they are simply divine! This is not just a restaurant; it's a love letter to the Mediterranean, & a must-visit for anyone who appreciates authentic Greek cuisine.
Been going to Zante for years , service , food , & atmosphere always top notch. Food always absolutely fresh & always prepared to perfection. Service perfect ! staff comes frequently but never too frequently. Atmosphere is very pleasant, never noisy which adds to to the experience as you are able to hear everyone at your table & carry a normal conversation, that is something that lacks in many restaurants were noise level is unbearable.
My friends & I had a truly exceptional dining experience at Restaurant Zante! The food is remarkably fresh & bursting with flavor - the quality is consistently high. What truly sets this place apart however, is the outstanding service. The owner Costa & the manager Duli, are incredibly friendly, attentive, & ensure that every guest feels welcome. Five stars aren't enough - I highly recommend Zante to anyone seeking a fantastic meal in a warm & inviting atmosphere!
Recently had our annual boys Christmas dinner at Zante & wow, what a night it was! The food was what you'd expect from such a high-quality establishment The waiters were extremely attentive for needs & we missed for nothing I don't know if it's like this every Friday night but we had the luck of having a DJ that was playing fantastic music & the owner, Kosta, Was checking in on all the tables to make sure that his clients were fully satisfied. I strongly recommend this place !!!
