From the moment we walked in, the service was absolutely outstanding. The staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely made us feel like family. Every detail, from the welcome to the recommendations, was spot-on.

We have been to Philinos multiple times with our family and have never been disappointed—the food and staff have always been amazing. Unfortunately, tonight completely changed that experience and left us feeling extremely insulted. It started right when we walked in: my 2-year-old picked up a fake olive that wasn’t even on the branch of the decorative tree at the entrance. She tried to eat it, we immediately stopped her, and what I assume was the manager made a comment along the lines of “yeah, maybe don’t break it off the tree.” I explained she hadn’t done that, but the remark already felt rude and unnecessary. Later during the evening, my daughters were excited and chatting (not screaming, just being kids), when a waitress who wasn’t even assigned to our table came over and actually shushed them. I was shocked—this is supposed to be a family restaurant! The tipping point came when the same waitress returned to tell me I needed to “control my kids” because supposedly some guests had left due to them. For context, we were 6 adults and 4 children under 5. Our kids were not misbehaving—if they raised their voices, we immediately told them to be respectful. They were simply enjoying themselves. To be told, essentially, to silence my kids in a family restaurant was the most insulting and disrespectful experience we’ve ever had dining out. I voiced this to the waitress, who then left our table. The manager never came over to apologize or clarify. The only one who showed any professionalism was our actual waitress, who was apologetic and even admitted she didn’t know why the other server interfered. We have always loved the food at Philinos, but after tonight, this will no longer be our go-to family restaurant. No family should be made to feel unwelcome or embarrassed simply because their children are enjoying themselves.

Appetizers were ok, service was mediocre. Reasonable amount of staff for a Saturday night, yet it took about 1hr 30mins to receive our main meal and we were two at the table. In addition, our two orders were the same…2 souvlakia with steamed greens and oven potatoes. So the question is: are there not enough cooks or are they not working fast enough? As well, most dishes are overpriced and the menu lacks variety.
Atmosphere: doesn’t look or feel Greek, doesn’t feel inviting. No A/C, maybe no central air either? We were sweating at the table by 20h (8pm). Disappointing first impression and experience.

Been to Philinos ave du Parc years ago and was solid. Here not so much. Service was really slow. Waited 30+ minutes for our starter salads then another 30+ minutes for the main course. Food was ok not great. Sea bass was 55$ which i found a little steep. You can get a steak at the Keg for less. Anyway, waitress was nice but certainly won't keep Philinos on my list of options when dining out

We had a wonderful experience thanks to Sharon, who took such great care of us even though the place was very busy. Her friendly and attentive service made us feel welcome and well looked after. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and everything ran smoothly despite the crowd. Sharon truly went above and beyond — we really appreciated her kindness and professionalism. Highly recommend!
