The two servers were polite, efficient and a delight to interact with. They made us feel more like welcome guests in their homes than customers at a restaurant. The drink selection was limited but I found a delicious local beer and my wife had a frozen strawberry coconut concoction (Miami Vice) that reminded her of her favorite drink from a Caribbean resort. We couldn't have been happier with the food. She had a pasta dish with vegetables (she's a vegetarian) and I had shrimp and veggies over rice. Both were delicious and the portions were very generous. The shrimp were huge but still tender and there were 6 of them where I would have expected 3. The only reason I'm not giving the 5th star is the ambiance. Fourno's is doing a wonderful job taking a piece of sidewalk and turning it into a dining area... love the big umbrellas and the festive Greek music... it's fun to watch people walking by take a moment to dance a bit to the music. Still, you can't help but notice that, despite fantastic efforts, you're seated in kind of a side street and the back lot is a little rough around the edges. Please don't let that stop you from giving them a try though. They are 5 star in every other category! Opa!

Gord and I had breakfast this morning at Yianni's Mediterranean Bistro on Queen Street…read more It's a large restaurant with a patio in the back. We sat in the front of the restaurant because it was brighter. It seemed like the lights were low towards the back ... not cozy at all. We both ordered Yianni's Special. Plus Gord ordered a coffee and I ordered a large milk. Breakfast was good and there was a nice variety. Our server started out fairly friendly. But after we'd ordered and got our meals, she kind of forgot about us. We were trying to catch her attention to let her know we wanted our bill for a while. It took us a long time to be able to pay. This restaurant lost a star because of this.

Let me just say that I really wanted to like Yianni's. My girlfriend and I were up in…read moreNiagara-on-the-lake for my birthday, and had a wonderful experience at Zee's the night before. Walking home, we spotted Yianni's storefront and resolved to head there for breakfast in the morning - it looked cozy, and they had a breakfast menu plastered right outside! Arriving was a totally different experience, however. To be fair, we were there on a wednesday morning - but we were literally the only diners there (and the town was bustling with some sort of photography group...hundreds of people with cameras? Who knows). I was initially excited for what I was assuming to be a great little greasy-spoon greek breakfast spot. Turns out I was wrong on that account. The waitress ushered us to our table, asking if we would like a coffee. Of course, we said yes before even sitting down - however I would later find out that coffee was $2.50 a cup for mediocre diner-style brew. Ehhh, not impressed, and the way she said it I assumed (like at plenty of breakfast spots) that it was included. My fault for assuming, but whatever. Anyhow, when she came back I was quite excited to order the egg breakfast. I don't eat meat (and there was no plain egg dish without it), so I asked if I might be able to sub the bacon for another side, or an extra egg, or anything really. Bowl of fruit? whatever. Her response kind of bothered me, however: "Absolutely no substitutions." Seriously? Who says that? Roll it off your tongue, right now. You just -feel- rude. Needless to say I was disenchanted at the idea of paying $7 for two eggs and toast (no coffee, homefries extra, of course). After her little rebuttal, she said matter-of-factly that "if you don't eat meat, you should get an omelette." $10-13 for the omelette. Well, OK. $13 for breakfast is no big deal. Oh wait, that doesn't come with homefries either? Grumpily, my girlfriend and I each ordered a side of homefries for an extra $1.50 each. To her credit, the omelette didn't take long to make and it was in front of me pretty soon. There was plenty of feta in my Mediterranean omelette, and it was pretty tasty. The homefries, however, were FROM A BAG. We're talking McCain/Cavendish variety here. Not only that, they BURNED THEM into crunchy little cubes of grease, with little-to-no fluffy potato interior. It was actually like eating grease-soaked potato chips. I had heartburn for HOURS. I was unimpressed when the bill unceremoniously showed up at $38. I'm sorry, but $5 for two uninspiring coffees, over $15 per omelette... ...I would have paid that for an incredible, fresh, lovely breakfast at some inn by the lake. But given the atmosphere and the service and the quality of what I actually put in my mouth... ...PASS.

The potatoes while way bigger than I was anticipating were tasty. I should have gotten a piece of baklava because it looked amazing! I thought about it all night.

You could knock someone out with one of those. Not tender at all. It's got ricotta in it. How are they not tender? Also the sauce was not good either. Just tomato chunks.

We didn't have a car, but we had the WEGO pass, so we took the bus to the Bed and Breakfast stop and walked 13 minutes through the neighborhood to get to RG Kitchen. The owner is super friendly and kind. While we were there, several customers came in and you could tell they were regulars by the way they greeted each other warmly. It's definitely a good sign when the locals love the food. My daughters both wanted the chicken shwarma items, but we added the beef donair after reading something on the wall about the Halifax donair being a Canadian thing. Did I mention we were tourists? The chicken shwarma dishes were delicious and flavorful. The salad that came with the plate had a light dressing, and for me, it had a unique slightly-sweet taste. The fries were perfectly fried, and the hummus and pickles finished out the plate. The beef was also delicious. I preferred the chicken but my daughter preferred the beef. Like the salad, the rice had a slightly sweet hint to it - I've never tasted something like this and enjoyed its unique subtle taste. All the flavors of the dishes came together beautifully.

Very solid place that one probably had a similar experience if they went there 20 years ago…read more I had the moussaka and it was just what I wanted. The rice was actually a lot better than I expected. I know it's just a side, but rice at times from other Greek places isn't that great, and this was much better. My wife had the mix grill plate, and I helped. She absolutely loved the lamb. It was largely over the quality and the prep was fairly standard, but there's nothing wrong with that. The other parts didn't jump out, but were still perfectly good. The service was very attentive.

Having had moussaka ($33.95) at more chain-like Greek restaurants, Pantheon's version is lighter…read moreand fresher tasting. The potato layer feels fluffy and sandwiches thinly sliced eggplant, so the aubergine is rather pronounced. The ground beef mixture wasn't overly spiced and even the bechamel sauce was a thin layer, so it toasts the top but doesn't saturate the slice. Ultimately, it's not heavy so you could get through a full portion. A flaming saganaki ($19.95), the pan fried kefalotiri cheese, is a staple in Canadian Greek restaurants. It seems touristy to order but there's something endearing about setting a piece of cheese on fire and yelling "opa"! For me, the dish is more for the atmosphere than taste. Pantheon pan fries the cheese well, so it develops a crust even prior to flambeeing and serves it as a thick gooey slice. If only the accompanying bread wasn't so dry and mealy, a good saganaki calls for a better complement. Almost all their mains arrive with a sizeable Greek side salad that's smartly served first containing ample amounts of crumbled feta and some tomato, cucumbers, and onion over romaine. Their dressing is different, tamer and while still acidic there's a sweetness to it. Not sure, but perhaps they use a red wine vinegar and then blend the ingredients together so it's better combined? With the fishkebob souvlaki ($36.95) I was expecting fish, but it's really a seafood kebob containing shrimp, calamari and mushroom. It's cooked well with a faint grilled aroma, very tender, and lightly salted. Sadly, my steamed vegetables were merely carrots and didn't have the delicious garlicky green beans included on my friends' plates. Luckily, there was plenty with the moussaka so I could augment mine. At least there was an ample portion of roasted lemon potatoes that were soft and fluffy with a refreshing pronounced citrus finish. Pantheon doesn't skimp on the lamb chops that arrive with the entrée. And if you can't decide on what protein you'd like, their menu also offers some as add-ons. The lamb chop by the piece ($11.95) was bit gamier than I'd like but was cooked to a perfect medium doneness. A complimentary honey cake arrives for the table and is almost like having baklava in cake form. Just watch out, as the moist crumbly cake is difficult to pick up with a fork. Don't waste a bit of this delicious dessert, just use your fingers.
