Souvlaki specials |
256 St-Viateur Avenue West (Near Jeanne-Mance) Montreal, QC H9R 4Y2 Canada |
This legendary souvlaki joint is consistently voted the best in the city. The greasy-spoon atmosphere of the early days is gone, however, replaced by a more modern look and feel, and prices, of course. The menu is extensive, with lots of appetizers and even dishes such as steak and hamburger. But what patrons really come for, at any time of the day or night, is the souvlaki on pita, an incredibly tasty, sloppy mess. Other locations at 301 Brunswick Blvd, near St-Jean, Pointe Claire, +1 514 695 1100; and 480 St-Laurent Blvd, near Notre-Dame, +1 514 282 9717. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Everything under the sun |
102 Prince Arthur Street East (At Coloniale) Montreal, QC H2X 1B5 Canada +1 514 849 0122 |
One of seemingly dozens of Greek restaurants on Prince Arthur Street, it is easy to confuse this spacious, raucous spot with any number of others that look, feel and taste the same. That said, they all provide quick, hearty food from a menu with something to please everyone, and the Cabane is no exception. Two-for-one deals (CAD10-25), a bring-your-own-wine policy, a charming sidewalk patio in summer and the accompanying street scene are major attractions. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Great for groups |
105 Prince Arthur Street East (At Coloniale) Montreal, QC H2X 1B6 Canada +1 514 844 5114 |
This Prince Arthur Street restaurant is popular among students and large groups who want an above-average dining experience with a lots-of-fun atmosphere and a manageable tab; though little on the menu immediately identifies this two-storey spot as Greek. Offering great two-for-one deals on steaks, seafood, and yes, even some Greek specialties, this is a good choice for a quick bite and good conversation. The bring-your-own wine policy makes this an even better bargain, and in summer an outdoor table is as essential as it is difficult to obtain. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Superior psarotaverna |
362 Fairmount Avenue West (Near du Parc) Montreal, QC H2V 2G4 Canada +1 514 270 8437 |
This certainly isn't the only place in Mile End to enjoy classic Greek cuisine like bite-sized appetizers and grilled seafood, but it is one of the best. The décor is vaguely nautical but not gimmicky; it is convincingly Mediterranean and relaxing at the same time. Soft shell crab is available in season and is something of a house specialty. It's not altogether cheap, but the extra expense goes towards freshness and an overall positive experience. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Great terrace |
521 Duluth Avenue East (Near Chateaubriand) Montreal, QC H2L 1A8 Canada +1 514 521 4206 |
In a town renowned for its terrace restaurants, this long-established eatery is right up there with the best—so much so that there's usually a line-up for tables, especially on pleasant days. The menu includes many standard Mediterranean dishes such as chicken brochettes, filet mignon wrapped in bacon, and lamb. All are tender enough to melt in your mouth. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Wopa! |
880 Ball Avenue (corner of Wiseman) Montreal, QC H3N 1J7 Canada +1 514 277 4689 |
It seems as if Marven's has been around forever - it is part of the neighbourhood landscape. This restaurant serves authentic Greek food, and any day of the week you will find it filled with members of the local Greek community - their presence testifies to its authenticity. So go ahead and eat your heart out - wopa! Review © 2007, Wcities |

Hollywood bright lights |
5357 Parc Avenue (Near Fairmount) Montreal, QC H2V 4G9 Canada +1 514 272 3522 |
While this may be the "in" spot in Montreal for Hollywood luminaries passing through town, this Parc Avenue institution's real secret to success is the simply prepared fish and seafood, using only the best and freshest ingredients. The décor is traditional Greek and the ambience loud and boisterous. It doesn't take much to get the whole room up and dancing. The wine list is extensive, with prices in the mid-to-high range.

Predictable but fun |
17 Prince Arthur Street East (Near St-Laurent) Montreal, QC H2X 1B2 Canada +1 514 842 5451 / +1 514 842 5452 |
One of the dozens of restaurants on the Prince Arthur Street strip, this vaguely Greek establishment serves up mountains of steak, brochettes, seafood and pasta to hordes of tourists and locals alike. Two-for-one specials include everything from steak with mushrooms, pasta dishes and brochettes to a few distinctive Greek specialties. The huge menu should have something for everyone, children included. On summer evenings the terrace is definitely the place to be. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Sea worthy spot |
2310 Guy Street Sherbrooke Montreal, QC H3H 2M2 Canada +1 514 846 8818 http://www.molivos.qc.ca |
One of a number of psarotavernas (Greek fish and seafood restaurants) to be found in the Montreal area, this one offers good food at reasonable prices in a comfortable setting. House specialties include fresh fish and seafood such as soft shell crab (in season) and red snapper, all are sold by the pound, and market prices vary. You can also get the typical Greek starters, such as fried eggplant (CAD7). Service is prompt, friendly and efficient. The lunch table d'hôte is a good deal, offering a starter and a choice of main courses for CAD13.95-17.95. Review © 2007, Wcities |
