We were so lucky to stumble upon this authentic Greek restaurant in Old Montreal! The crispy olives were so delicious that we ordered them three times. 😋 And the homemade hummus served with freshly baked naan was absolutely unforgettable. As someone who really loves Greek food, finding a place like this in Montreal made our trip extra special!🤗

Arrived for a 9:15 reservation and did not get a table until 10:20. The stuffed garden vegetables had dry rice and was flavorless. Very disappointing experience.

We tried this restaurant for MTL à table and it did not disappoint! Everything we had was amazing and they even accommodated me for some plates since I'm lactose intolerant. The staff was really helpful and friendly. I will definitely visit again.

The day we arrived in Montreal , we discovered this restaurant on our walk back to our hotel. We made a reservation for dinner later that evening. The dinning room is very serene.We shared several dishes, amazing stuffed grape leaves, bright salad with thinly shaved fennel and lamb chops. The whiskey sour does not disappoint. I think it was the best whiskey sour we had on our Montreal trip.There is a good selection of Greek wines as well. We finished dinner with the Baklava Express drink and the tarte costrade. It was delicious dinner for our first night in Montreal.

Food was very good, nice cozy restaurant. It is a good place to share meals, the Spanakopita was delicious as well as the Greek Sausage! Very heartwarming.

Disappointing Experience for the Price The restaurant has a pleasant atmosphere, but unfortunately, the overall experience did not justify the cost. The dishes were nicely presented but lacked the depth of flavor one would expect at this price point. Service was courteous yet somewhat inattentive at times, and the portion sizes were smaller than anticipated. While I appreciate the effort put into the concept, I believe there are other establishments in Montreal offering better value for authentic Greek cuisine. I do not recommend.
Food was outstanding!!!! Staff explained the plate sharing concept so we adjusted our order - adding more dishes than we would normally order. So, so good!!!

This was my third visit to Mati and every time I am blown away by the amazing quality of the food and attentive service. We shared the watermelon salad, the flambe cheeze, the grilled octopus, tzaziki with pita, the branzino and brocolinis topped with flan for desert. Every bite was more delicious than the last, pure delight. The service was impecable and warm and the setting is beautiful. I could not resist taking home a pastitsio home for lunch tomorrow. A gem of a restaurant, can't wait to go back.

I think service rating could be better if there was more enthusiasm from the servers regarding the dishes and what they are especially when there are no photos to show what these interesting dishes could be.
If opting out of imagery on the menu is the vibe, it is understandable but ensure that the enthusiasm of the servers are there to better describe and sell the dish.
Aside from that, the food we ordered tasted phenomenal. Again, had the server let us know in advance that there would be a bit of a wait time between all the other things we ordered and our pastitsio… we would’ve reconsidered.
Again with the whole “tipping culture” and the peer-pressuring of wanting to tip the servers. We did not feel well served but we ended up tipping anyways for the minimal “service” we had.. the refill on water twice, the clearing of our plates was faster than the food arriving on our table.
On the way out, we used the bathrooms downstairs and on our way up, the aisles between tables were so narrow that we had to wait for another server to pause taking orders from her table (despite her seeing us waiting there before she started to take the order..) so we can pass. Servers completely lacking awareness of their environment and reading the room…she did see us come up the stairs yet instead of quickly letting us pass, she began to take the order and thus leading to a really awkward pause where she had to let us pass by and we got the death glare from the man who had to wait the 3 seconds before he would order his food.
It’s 3 seconds. It’s not the end of the world for you okay?
We didn’t see the option of the evil eye candy that others had shared which was something I sort of looked forward to as the evil-eye theme is a personal interest.
We ordered: taramasalata dip with pita, lamb chops, spanakopita, calamari, stuffed vine leaves and the pastitsio (similar to a lasagna?) — the dip was freaking phenomenal.. which made up for the lack of enthusiasm.
