50 Best Greek Restaurants near Sainte Catherine

“Update 2024/01/29. Last time I went the food went down alot. Extra charges for cesar salad now, which was included before. Restaurant was FREEZING. With the old owners, this was my favourite resto for the past 9 years. Always packed and full of life! New owners doubles the prices and lacked the quality. Place was almost empty on a Friday night! Now it's closed for an undetermined period. Sad to lose such a great place.“

“Family owned restaurant, they take the time to chat with you when they can, always kind and happy to see us back, we do all our big group dinners there and everyone is always very happy with their meals. Great people, great food, great time every time.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair ramp outside“

“Nous nous sommes stationné par hasard devant la vitrine et j’ai remarqué qu’il avait des spanakopita au feta et épinard ! J’ai couru à l’intérieur et Angelis le propriétaire à été super accueillant et souriant. J’ai pris des petits pitas et de la tzatziki qui reste à essayer. Je recommande belle petite ambiance avec pleins de petites douceurs sucrés et salé !“

“This is a wonderful restaurant. We were there on a Saturday night. The owner, waitress, and waiters were extremely attentive to our every whim. The atmosphere is warm, clean and inviting. This is a very special place and I highly recommend it.Parking: Depending on the time of day, you have to drive around a bit but there is parking on the side streets.“

“Venturing into Elounda, a Greek seafood haven, proved to be a culinary adventure that left a lasting impression. With a menu steeped in the rich flavors of the Mediterranean and an ambiance reminiscent of the Greek isles, Elounda delivered a delightful experience.The culinary journey began with a classic appetizer, the Kalamari, which showcased the chef's expertise in preparing this Mediterranean favorite. The succulent and perfectly cooked calamari set the tone for the feast that awaited. The Zucchini Fry, a delightful surprise, stole the spotlight with its crispy perfection and mouthwatering seasoning.Freshness was the hallmark of Elounda's Oysters, served with a burst of flavors that transported diners to the ocean's edge. The oysters were not only fresh but also a testament to the restaurant's commitment to quality seafood.The star of the evening was the Fish Grill—an exquisite dish that encapsulated the essence of Greek seafood cuisine. Grilled to perfection, the fish was both tender and flavorful, offering a symphony of tastes that delighted the palate.The ambiance at Elounda added to the overall experience, with charming decor that reflected the warmth of the Mediterranean. The attentive service staff, clad in outfits reminiscent of the Greek coastal villages, contributed to the authentic atmosphere.While the culinary experience at Elounda was exceptional, it is regrettable that a slight tarnish occurred during the payment process. One service staff member, in a moment of unprofessionalism, pressed for a tip, suggesting a specific percentage. This incident, albeit unpleasant, did not overshadow the overall excellence of the dining experience.In conclusion, Elounda stands out as a must-visit for those seeking an authentic Greek seafood adventure. From the succulent Kalamari to the delightful Zucchini Fry and the exquisite Fish Grill, Elounda delivers a memorable gastronomic journey. Despite the minor hiccup, I highly recommend Elounda for its culinary prowess and inviting ambiance.Please note that individual experiences may vary, and this review reflects a personal perspective on a specific visit.“

“We took advantage of the February 2 special for 22. Good portion, value for money. Their Greek potatoes are excellent, the meat was cooked to perfection. For salads, no worries about removing what you don't like and their vinaigrette is very good. The triopita starter is good but a little overpriced for the portion. The service was correct taking into account the type of restaurant. Everything was very clean.Parking: Street parking and there is a small municipal parking lot next door“

“Amazing baklava! And the owner is so friendly and welcoming. It is more a restaurant/cafe than a grocery store, as they mainly have many food and pastry options. I think it would be more easily viewed on Google if it was labelled as a restaurant or cafe. I lived in the area for 3 years before discovering it just because it doesn't come up when you search for restaurant.“

“Had a wedding here a few days ago and everything was perfect the place is nice the waiters are 10/10 they’ll always be on time waiting is not an option once you ask for something you can expect to get it in a few seconds.The food is one of the best Greek food I’ve ever tried, we had entrees of three different kinds of dips with slices of bread then some grilled octopus with calamari and fried cheese with some salade everything was good the salade was refreshing I loved the octopus wish I asked for more. The main dish we had a platter of sausage with lamb and pork with chicken all of it was great my least favourite was the sausage but the lamb was delicious with a side of potatoes the potatoes were good as well!Only bummer thing about this place is the parking which is obviously not their fault but depending on the time and day good luck finding parking.“

“I haven’t been to Marven’s since I was a kid and it was total nostalgia!!The food was soooo yummy just like I remember it. The Marvens sauce on my fries was heavenly and the services was so welcoming and attentive!! Thank you Marvens for the amazing lunch yesterday!! We all loved it!!!Kid-friendliness: Our kid wasn’t feeling the greatest that day it was noticed in the car ride there and the wait staff was attentive and accommodating gave us light speed so we can get her home Quickly. And communicated with her to comfort her and made her feel at ease.“

“Came in with low expectations and now i feel terrible.. this place is amazing! The tzatziki is the best I’ve had in a very long while. The meat was juicy and savoury, even the salad was exceptional. No hesitation, this is my new favourite greek restaurant in Montreal. And i grew up in Chomedey. Pricing is very reasonable and the portions are huge.“

“Food overall was excellent. Started with the Calamari. Great quality. Nice to see it wasn't drowned in the typical sauce. The mains: Dover Sole/Grilled Salmon were excellent. Nice to see they don't put a lot of stuff on it. Although with the Dover so I'll be honest I do prefer the French style which is has the light flower dusting and then the brown butter with capers that's my favorite way of having it done. The salmon was excellent perfectly medium rare in the center which is just fantastic. The desserts were a nice touch. The Walnut cake was a house standard. It was perfect. No I do want to say prices are pretty stiff but then again quality doesn't come cheap is the old expression. Definitely will plan on trying them out down in South Beach in Miami next winter.“

“Absolutely amazing dining experience! We had ordered several items including Saganaki, fried zucchini, tzaziki, and Mediterranean sea bass. Highly recommend as we truly savoured each and every bite. Thank you so much to both Jahed and Enam for the impeccable food and service and most of all thank you for the friendly welcome and atmosphere ?Can't wait to visit again!“

“My husband invited me to eat today and we didn't know where to go, we passed by Souvlaki bar and my husband told me to go, how about it... And big surprise... We loved the place! We were greeted by a very smiling and friendly hostess, who took us to the table where Chris, a very friendly and professional waiter, served us.To start we ordered a Taramusalata and a mug of beer and then a meat shovel. Very rich! Variety of pork, chicken, hamburger, chorizo, potatoes and rice for 2. Very juicy meat5 very well seasoned.And the dessert... Wow, the dessert was delicious!!! A delicious Greek cake with cheese. Very good for the place and 100 for Chris the waiter!“

“The Jules Sandwich is the best sandwich I've ever had. I would order it daily if I didn't live so far from the restaurant. Also although indoors can get crowded at times it's really nice to sit right outside as well.Dietary restrictions: non-dairy options“

“We had brunch here one day and I couldn't recommend it more! We tried all of their savory pies (which were all extremely tasty), a cinnamon bun (excellent) and coffee (very good). Service was amazing and interior was clean and tasteful. Will 100% be coming back!“

“1st time I ordered there, I didn't know it was GREEK FACTORY because of the MacBar next door. Great service from Miss Natalia, the chefs and the boss who fell in love with Pepito when picking up my order, super good pork gyro, the fries are the BEST I've eaten in a restaurant in a thousand years (and in industrial quantities, I haven't finished them, I have ½ left). Really... Thanks to the team and we will see each other again soon.ps: for the menu, I made a mistake with the MacBar one, the gyros are in yours. My mistake! Woof! Woof! :)“

“I ordered The Souvlaki pork plate, and it was the best shashlik I've had in the last five years. The portion was substantial, incredibly delicious, and hard to resist. While the place may not be fancy, the food is definitely worth a visit.“

“We went for my wife's bday and brought the kids (6 & 8), and we had a really nice time. The ambience and food are always great, but the staff we've put of their way to accommodate and even entertain the kids. Great dinner experience for us!“

“Came based on a recommendation from a Greek grocery in the area. Was met with a huge smile and felt very welcome within the first seconds. Great meal, although I’m realizing maybe some greek food is not for me (soup tasted funny). Service was exceptional and beyond my expectations; looking forward to going again on Fridays for their special Pastitsio Lazagna day!“

“Second time at this restaurant. Both times we were served by Marino who is quite good at what he does. Food is simple but good, no complaints. 4 starts since it's a little pricey for what it is. I guess you could say that of most restaurants since the pandemic... Will go back for sure.“

“I went there with my family for my father’s birthday and Lipon and the rest of the staff were so great! The service was impeccable and quick. The food was delicious. It was our first time and I would seriously recommend anyone to check it out.“

“We came to this restaurant on a chill winter for lunch. The restaurant looked clean and bright. We got seated pretty fast, and then we ordered a couple of dishes to share. The fried calamari was somewhat mediocre, the batter was thin but the calamari itself wasn't that fresh, I can immediately tell it was frozen for a bit too long. The portion for each dish ( or bowl) was decent. We got the grilled pork, which is my favorite and grilled chicken, along with some signature house salad. If you are nearby, looking for some quick bite but doesn't want to go to the fast food court, this is a good choice ?Parking: Really easy to park outside“

“We have been ordering from this restaurant for years, last night we ate the all dressed pizza and the chicken skewer. The pizza dough was excellent, as well as a very good amount of cheese, for my taste I would add a little more tomato sauce but it was still very good. For the skewer, everything was great, very good quantity and presentation, the rice 10/10. The quality/price ratio is really good. Thank you!“

“The chicken was well cooked, juicy and flavourful. The seasoning maybe strong but I guess that’s what makes this chicken different. The hot sauce reminds me of the ‘Shattah’ sauce you get in Saudi Arabia and the fries were amazing. Thin, but so fresh and crunchy. Also, they serve halal chicken.“

“Wowwww, it was the first time I came to this fast food restaurant, and it won't be the last, because it's the best souvlaki ever! The fries are homemade, seasoned, with a little dip!I know there are fries and dip missing, because I forgot to take the photo at the beginning :)“

“Been here 3 times now, and would highly recommend it. Delicious and fresh food - feta lamb, grilled calamari and the orange salad are just a few of the dishes I would suggest. Reasonably priced.The drawback is the below average service, with slow and rude waitresses.“

“Went on new year Eve. It was really great atmosphere, exceptional welcoming and serving service from the waiters. A great place for friends and family to meet and enjoy the great food. I also went to sherbrooke branch earlier and it was one of the rare restaurants in Montreal that you visit and see the long tables with grandparents, parents, children on the same table. It reminds me of home ❤️“

“I will be honest. The place is a bit filthy. They heat the potatoes in the microwave. And some side dishes like vegetables can start to lack freshness at the end of the day. BUT! Don't be put off by these little flaws! This is the BEST SHISH TAOUK SANDWICH IN MONTREAL!!! The chicken: EXCELLENT! Best garlic sauce I've tasted (and I've tasted a lot)! Best garlic potatoes too! And the BEST SHARWAMA TOO!!1!!1! In the end, it's subjective, but I assure you that once I discovered this restaurant, I abused it... and without regret! Every time I eat my shish taouk, it's a taste orgasm. NO JOKE! Monsieur Shish Taouk is a hidden gem in our city. Long live shish taouk and this restaurant!Update 7 years later:Still so delicious. I have been there at least 25 times in the last 7 years. I let myself be tempted by the falafels which are not my first choice usually. But oh my! I was not deceived! It was once again delicious. And the owner is always so friendly and loyal to the job! The prices are very reasonable too! Note that the place has had a little facelift that makes it even more cozy. Go for it!“

“This place is a hidden GEM!To start this off, I want to say that area is beautiful! There is water facing the front of the restaurant.The entrance is open and bright.The waitress Alexis brought my boyfriend and I to our table and was very pleasant.We ordered a bambino cheese pizza and a spaghetti with meat sauce.The wait time was exceptionally on great timing. The food looked proper and appealing to the eyes.The taste was… really great! I tried the pizza and it made me want to eat my food and his!Definitely going back! I highly recommend this place!“

“Excellent food as usual. Very nice atmosphere, we understand each other when we speak. Very great service despite the large number of people there. For me and my husband as well as my earnings it was WOW WOW Thank you. Mr DennisParking: Very large spacing next to the restaurantTHANKS.“

“Very noisy, but the food is very good and it's affordable. The service is also very fast and efficient even though we were a group of 16 people.Vegetarian options: Lots of starters for vegetarians, but the dishes only include spanakopita.“

“Came here for dinner with friends. Delicious authentic lamb and chicken. It was tremendous. The taramo and Tzatziki were outstanding. The Pita bred was terrific. Finally we had the deserts, they were PERFECT ! I will come back here for sure as soon as possible. They need to highlight the “

“We went there for the first time , definitely it’s not gonna be the last time! The food , service, and friendly atmosphere was beyond our expectations. The chef came to our table and asked us about our food, he was a very nice gentleman! Totally recommend ????“

“Really good, and original. Seafood wraps, and vegetarian wraps, along with familiar fillings. Poutines with the same toppings. Filo cheesecake. Only two tables in the dinning area, three more outside in the summer. The salads and plates are also top choices.Yes, the prices are that good.“

“The food is excellent. Butterfly shrimp is excellent as is the filet mignon, Surf and Turf. The wait staff are very friendly whether you're English or French. They are always smiling and very attentive. The prices are great. The ambiance is lovely but I gave it 4 stars because it can be a bit noisy because it is always packed.“

“Excellent service, excellent meal, but please remove the kitchen bell! Do you think waiters twiddle their thumbs when they are in the dining room? No! They welcome the customers, open their bottle, take the orders, make sure everything is okay, bring the meals and the little something missing for happiness, clear the table, print the invoice and leave it at the table, collect the customers who sometimes have to do it two or three times with the machine, invite them to come back, clean and reassemble the tables... They know that they have to go get plates from the kitchen. There is no need to tap the bell to remind them! And customers hear it too, the bell!Parking: Accessible and well-lit parkingKid-friendliness: Nice affordable menu“

“Excellent place, amazing servers, food is extremely delicious, but to be fair it is fusion, not all greek traditional, but the taste is very good, bonus you can bring you own wine! Also the prices are very decent, thanks, especially to the personnel, very nice and professional!“

“We don't realize how much a restaurant can be a part of our lives until it closes. This is what happened to me with La Ligne Rouge, a restaurant that was part of my life for a long time. We stopped after our alcoholic evenings to eat good souvlaki "donners" in this unpretentious restaurant.Then, suddenly, like many restaurants during the pandemic, the Red Line disappeared. But now she's back. Same friendly staff, headed by the same guy with his bicycle handle mustache that we saw in the window! Staff who are always super busy and a little gruff but people who care about their customers. I am always very well served.Don't expect a "young and trendy" restaurant. The decor hasn't really been redone. The series of tables is a little uncomfortable. With so few customers, it's time to air it out! Change the decor a little. For payment: cash only!Now, let's talk about the food.THE FOOD! Pure delight! The pork pita “donners” are so on point! Tasty with simple spices. It's inimitable. Good big homemade fries. No frozen, REAL fries.The menu is relatively simple, but that's exactly what explains the success. We are many loyal fans of this restaurant. I would dare to say that it is a Montreal institution in the same way as Schwartz’s, Wilensky, Orange Julep, etc...The Red Line is a little treasure and one of the hidden secrets of our city. I have no idea if the current owner has plans to take over, but it's better to take advantage of it now, in case it closes again!“

“WOW, best service I ever had ! Fresh and hot food, extremely fast service, so much positivity arround, and such delicious meals!!! WOW! I wish all the restaurants will take this one as an example. Very clean restaurant, too !Kid-friendliness: A lot of space and food comes soo fast. The quality of the food is great for any age. Very clean!!!“

“Greek restaurant located in Le Cantlie Hotel, I would say probably one of the best Greek restaurant I’ve been to. The atmosphere was outstanding, and kept getting better. DJ was on fire; service was perfect - very friendly people.The food was perfectly made; very tasty and no need to say anything about the drinks.Highly recommended for group parties “

“Typical gyro (in the positive sense), and surely authentic. Generous in chicken pieces and sauce. Not bad good. I loved! Respectable Greek salad. The pieces that made it up were also quite big. Rice and fries ok, but not memorable. Delicious dolmadakias.Positive result! I recommend if you are looking for a small Greek canteen that offers delivery (Doordash).“

“Villa Souflaki is an NDG institution that has been here since the 70’s. We are regulars here and love the authentic Greek cuisine This quality fast food always satisfies, the doner is fantastic, the porc, chicken sticks and fries are always spot on. Friends come into town and ask, can we go to Villa? If you have not tried this place, it’s a must.“

“Very good and varied cuisine we had for our Christmas dinner.Variety of starters, authentic Greek cuisineNegative points: Very loud music during dinner, impossible to chat during the meal, suggestion to turn up the volume around 11:00 in the evening.“

“Very nice staff and good food.I would definitely come back here again for lunch. I had the chicken souvlaki which has rice, fries, salad and chicken wrap. As it was a lunch deal I also got a vegetable soup as a starter. It was nice and I would have it again.You have options for takeaway as well as frozen options you could cook at home.Overall for the price this is a good lunch option.“

“Food was very good but I would strongly suggest not going on a Saturday evening, prime time. It took some time to find us a table and for them to serve the food. I understand that they were understaffed but I had a feeling that they were a bit disorganized. But overall I’m sure that if you go at another time you will have a great experience ?“

“Our server was very funny!!Vegetarian options: Yes possibleDietary restrictions: Say itParking: Not many places given the number of restaurants but you just have to park a little further away.Kid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“Restaurant with Greek decoration, good service. The salmon was overcooked. The rice was hard. The lamb chops are good and tender. Bring your own wine. Street parking, no Wi-Fi. I'm glad I tried the restaurant. Will I come back? Maybe. Prices are slightly high for my taste.“

“We went as a group of 8 for my mom’s birthday. The main courses were very good, and everyone loved the butternut squash soup for a starter. They accommodated a child at our table with a special request. The service was very nice. Prices on the high side, but it’s it’s BYOW which helps offset the total cost. We’ll definitely be back!“

“We booked for a group on this beautiful evening of December 30th. The food was good and arrived at the same time for everyone (this is not always easy with large groups).I would like to highlight the absolutely flawless service of Jean-Benoit (I hope I didn't get his name wrong). He was there for our group, in a good mood, foreseeing (he almost anticipated our needs before us). He was even attentive and patient with the children. I have eaten in great restaurants with worse service than what he gave us tonight. I hope this comment resonates with your team and him in particular! In a world where negativity is everywhere, I find it important to recognize and highlight the excellent work of employees! :)** The bathrooms could do with a little refreshing, luckily we don't spend the evening there! **“
