Stopped in on a whim as we passed by, and SO glad that we did. I had the Greek Beef Souvlaki. I’m pretty sure I’ll never have a gyro that will be as good as this was!

Absolutely delicious food. Greek theme to the dishes and absolutely worth it. Fresh and you can taste the care put into everything. Ate too fast to have taken pics.

I've been coming here now once or twice a year for almost a decade from Spokane. Everything is delicious. And it's hard to choose because the menu is so varied! The calamari is divine. Eating outside in the summer to the scent of fresh mint is my happy place.

Came here after reading many reviews (good or bad). Would not recommend for parties of more than two. Only five tables seating 3 or 4. You might end up waiting for at least half an hour or longer.
Fish chips with halibut were decent, but that’s it. We ordered two pieces, upgrade with Greek salad (greasy) and fries. Clam chowder manhattan style was very different, my daughter did not like it initially but opened up to it after being encouraged to try. Less cream and more veggies, which was good for you.
The cocktail drink was tasty.
We were very disappointed by the non-existent service. For a diner, you normally expect a cozy, warm, fuzzy kind of service, this one doesn’t not fit it at all!

Compassion Catering
We popped into Main Street Diner on a recommendation, and wow -- it was by far one of the best diners we've ever eaten at. They have an incredible Greek-inspired menu, and everything we tried was outstanding. I ordered the Santorini Shawarma Stack featuring a shawarma-spiced lamb burger with sweet pickled onions, the diner's tabouli, Greek yogurt tzatziki, house-made hummus, dill pickles, crisp leaf lettuce, and a sweet & savoury Middle Eastern chutney on a locally baked bun -- paired with the Greek salad. Absolutely phenomenal. My mom had the fish sandwich with a side of buffalo fries, and we also shared the buffalo chicken fries -- everything was really, really good. Huge shoutout to Lawrence, our waiter, and Eryn, our server -- both were incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming. Eryn never stopped checking on us, kept our waters filled, and had the best smile. Lawrence even made us a hot chocolate with whipped cream, which was hands down the best hot chocolate in town. The service is excellent, the atmosphere is warm and inviting, and this is one of the best places to stop in while visiting Nelson. Noon to 12:30 is a perfect time to go -- it does get busy during the lunch rush, but it is 100% worth the wait. There are lots of great menu options, and we will definitely be back. One of my favorite spots in Nelson!

Wow! *THE* best fish and chips ever, made with fresh, house filleted halibut. And the apple pie is scrumptious, with a crisp, flaky crust that's almost impossible to find outside of your own (or grandma's) kitchen 😋

After a long trip from overseas, I had my first proper meal in Canada here. I had a slight craving for Greek food and so ordered the lamb burger, which was close enough. Other times I have had lamb burgers or the like, they tended to be dry. The burger here, though, was perfect. Juicy and delicious with a nice dollop of tzatziki. My companion's fish and chips also looked fantastic. The food was simple and nicely done - and the server was very friendly. A great meal for a tired traveler.
Where do I begin, this place has a beautiful atmosphere, alluring aroma, and excellent service that leaves you wanting more. The food was on another level, I left no crumbs on my plate!
If you are visiting Nelson this is a must-try

So good went 2 nights in a row! Greek food options for both of us both nights. All fresh flavorful ingredients made in house. Nice beer and wine selections Enjoyed small atmosphere and good service. Nice change from pub food menu
Great Greek surprise! We stayed at the sweet little hotel across the street and wandered over for dinner - what a coup! Delicious and authentic - lively presentation as well! Way to go Nelson! Win, win!
