Volos is one of my favourite restaurants in the city! The service is always spectacular, the saganaki blows my mind, the exochico couldn't be more amazing and the chocolate mousse is mouth watering delicious. To finish this post let me give everyone some advice, go to Volos, I promise you won't be disappointed!! read more

Volos continues to stand out as the number one high end Greek restaurant in the city. Atmosphere and service are impeccable. Appetizers such as dolmades and saganaki are so good you'll order seconds. Not your typical Greek mains. I had the lamb shank which fell off the bone. read more

Went there on a Saturday with my girlfriend for her birthday. Food was great, service was great, and the decor was top notch. Glad to see TO finally get a Greek restaurant in the heart of downtown. Unlike most Greek restaurants which look like they've been decorated by The Cartoon Network in an atrocious blue and white 'hut' theme, Volos is a classy looking joint that sets high expectations from the moment you walk in...and it delivers. The owner came to our table shortly after we sat down and walked us through the wine menu and gave us his suggestions for food. My gf and I wanted to do more of a tapas style, which was easily done even when including a main dish. I was also impressed by our server's knowledge of the menu and the ingredients of each dish. We had the Spetzofai (spice sausage in a delicious tomato and pepper sauce), grilled octopus, saganaki (flaming cheese), Greek salad and the main salmon course. What makes Volos one of the best Greek food experiences out there is the attention to detail: the octopus was grilled to perfection and served in a balsamic vinegar-based sauce that was delicious; the salmon was crisp on the outside but melted like butter in your mouth and was serviced on top of what seemed to be a dill-based risotto. You can taste the freshness of the ingredients and the uniqueness of the chef's recipes. As for price, Volos is in-line with top restaurants in Toronto. It's not the cheapest game in town, but it was good value for what we got. We didn't get any drinks besides the wine, so would be curious to know how much cocktails run for. This place will become one of Toronto's premier restaurants for sure and if they can keep up the quality then it will stay on the map for a long time. read more

The ambience is very nice. For starters, try their Saganaki - milk cheese -; then the Grilled Calamari--ok it's squid. Then you must have the Soutzokakia: meatballs in tomato sauce wanting attention. I like Meheeecan food, so they say Exohico is as exotico as a Greek burrito. read more

I had the pleasure of Dining at Volos, I put my meal in the hands of the evening manager. Three courses, Wine pairing. Adam did a fantastic job of reading me, Octopus starter with a Skouras, Exohico( Braised Lamb and Veg in Phylo) a Paranga. Finishing with Baklava and Santo desert wine. Excellent meal! Thank you Adam read more

Was brought here for my birthday and was not disappointed! My salmon was perfectly made, service was great and the decor is very classy. Great place :) read more

We came here for dinner at the beginning of the year during winter, we went to see Shenyun at the Four Seasons, so we wanted something fast since we were on a tight schedule. We came upon this place due to its proximity to four seasons and it looked interesting. We had tasty food(as I can't remember what we had now), atmosphere was great as I really liked the high bar styled tables and wall sofas, I found it romantic and comfortable. The clientele was cool as well. Most of all, the service was amazing!! The server was not only attentive but was extremely accommodating with our tight schedule, she tried to deliver food quickly to help us get to our show on time. Would definitely go again! It's a perfect pairing with a show nearby. read more

Wicked resto Excellent food Reasonable prices and a great server in Chris His suggestions and guidance from Greek wine to Greek dishes was excellent A must try if in TO read more

Thanks to Yelp, we found this Greek gem in Toronto. And, thanks to the reviews, we tried the Saganaki, which was so delicious, as well as the Sea Bass. We also had the arugula salad. Everything was so delicious! The ambiance of the restaurant was very classy and was definitely a good date place. The service was impeccable as well. We will definitely come here again! read more

Volos has more of a dim and formal dining setting, so it's not the most cozy and casual but I absolutely love it. Would take visitors here, business guests or come with a large group. Their olive oil is the best I've had in the city, all their dishes are cooked so well, the food quality is very high. Their salmon is absolutely delicious. read more

We really enjoyed this restaurant. I went with my daughter, my niece. We all enjoyed the food and service. Our waiter had a charming personality and made great recommendations, Everything that we had was delicious. My niece had the sesame crusted salmon and it was perfect (a nice crunch on the outside). I had a dish that begins with an X (I can't remember the name nor could I pronounce it). The dish had lamb rib meat inside of phyllo dough it was delicious. My daughter had a seafood dish with rice. We loved that too. We all tried each other's dishes and enjoyed them all. I can't remember the waiter's name, but he was the best. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is warm and cozy in a Greek and contemporary way. If I ever go back to Toronto, I will definitely make it a point to go to Volos.... read more

I'm rarely disappointed by Yelp but this was a major disappointment. Four stars? Are they padding? If they are padding the padders are not voting with their feet - the restaurant was less than half full at 8pm on a Friday. It takes real performance to fill a restaurant every night, not just padded Yelp reviews. I ordered the special Volos sausage appetizer after the server refused my request to sell me some tastes of a variety of appetizers. This was despite the invitation on the menu to make special combination requests. He delivered a massive plate of sausage with some bell peppers thrown on. The plate would have satisfied a large hungry dog and had about as much art as one would employ to make a dish for a dog. The appearance might have passed for the dog's stool, but I'm being excessive. I enjoyed several tasty bites and threw away most of the dish to save room for the Moussaka I ordered as my main. The Moussaka was fine but I could have microwaved the same at home from the Wal Mart freezer shelf. It was just not particularly interesting. Had this place been a cheap oooopa yelling cheese burning Greek family restaurant or at a food court I would have been satisfied, but the pomp, pricing, and rating of Volos set me up for a major letdown. I found the service intrusive and the décor weird. What is up with the rows of empty picture frames? read more

Came to celebrate nye 2013 with family. The menu was awesome, Food was great and the waiters are very friendly.

Loved this restaurant! The decor is very cozy and inviting (especially after trekking through the freezing cold). My coworkers and I were sat at a large long table in the middle of the restaurant. We had the flaming cheese to start, which was so delicious and the presentation is pretty cool. This place is big on seafood, so we all tried a different variation. I had the halibut, which was tasty and flaky, and came with vegetables that had been cooked in lemon vinaigrette and paired well with the fish. My coworkers really like the exohico and the seafood kleftiko. Definitely recommend the Santorini white wine. Our waitress was also lovely. Overall a great experience! read more

Tried three apps, scallops, octopus and salad. Apps are a bit on the small side but I guess given the location (right by the Bay street area) it's to be expected. Octopus was a bit overdone but the scallops were quite good. Our main was the lamb exohico which I highly recommend. Will definitely be back to try other dishes. read more

A great fusion of traditional and nouvelle Greek food. Everything is perfectly executed with great finesse and attention to the flavors. Very nice restaurant with impeccable service. Truly a treasure in Toronto. Highly suggested the Greek yogurt and figs for dessert. read more

came here for winterlicious. A good-try Greek food

Had dinner with a party of ten at Volos this past week. Everything from wine to dessert was wonderful, fun, delicious. Our server saved us the effort of choosing appetizers, suggesting that he bring us some platters. We had a huge salad, a couple of plates of calamari and octopus, lamb meat balls. I don't eat meat but the rest of the party reported as loving the lamb. For my part, the calamari was top drawer, the octopus a close second. We had a variety of entrees. I had my favourite, a whole grilled fish, my wife had a serving of the biggest scallops I may ever have seen. Again, everyone reported having great dishes. the ambiance was just boisterous enough to be fun, yet still very confortable, and never so loud that we couldn't have great conversations. We were so comfortable that our dinner for 10 took is more than 2-1/2 hours all told. A wonderful dinner celebrating a big event, the restaurant provided two trays of delicious dessert samples as a gift. I really liked this restaurant. As well as good food, it was a good experience. read more

This was our first fine dining experience with Greek food and we went spontaneously one night for dinner during the week after work. It was very busy and were seated at the back, which wasn't ideal, but since we didn't have a reservation we had no right to complain. It took a while for our server to come over, which I guess was picked up on by the manager. He immediately came over and comped us a glass of wine each. We ordered our appetizers - dolmades and octopus that we shared. Absolutely incredible. We then ordered our mains - moussaka and exhohico. Unreal and exactly what we wanted from our meal. We are frequent restaurant goers in Toronto and, from service standpoint, this was some of the best treatment we have received, particularly given our frustration with the slow service was mild and short lived. Can't say enough about the food. For those who like culinary adventures and haven't experience high end Greek, we HIGHLY recommend Volos!! read more

Went there for winterliciois and had a great time! The food was fantastic and the staff were great! We will definitely be going back!

Pretty amazing spot with service and food finding a perfect storm. Not to mention the pricing is very reasonable for downtown Toronto. I brought my whole family here, my parents and siblings. My mother is probably one of the harder people to please at restaurants as she's a nutritional consultant and very specific on what she eats. Not only was she happy with a straight off the menu item but she was impressed with the service the citing polite and not intrusive waiters skill. Anyway I've gone back a few times and wanted to write a review because I believe in rewarding restaurants like this when they do well! A referral is the best way to eat, feels more comfortable. Hope you all enjoy Volos as much as myself. read more

Terrific food and ambience. Very friendly, helpful staff. A fun place to eat good Greek food without the stereotypes of Danforth. First visit last week, went back the next night, Can't wait to go again. read more

Went there after a busy 2014. It was a Friday night and the atmosphere was perfection. Rustic and elegant with wonderful aromas. The food was absolutely delicious! The four of us shared flaming cheese, octopus and traditional Greek salad. The fish stew was amazing and Chef Chris came out and gave me some tips on how to make it. We also had the stuffed cornish hen - yummy. Our server, David, was so helpful and added to our wonderful evening out. Thanks Volos! read more

I have to say that I had one of the best Lamb in 2016. The braised lamb shank was literally melting in my mouth. The Spanakorizo was outstanding. Excellent service, relaxing and roomy place. read more

What a lovely place! We were looking for a central location to meet someone for dinner and the reviews spoke very highly of this place...plus, I love Greek food. The atmosphere is beautiful, the service was impeccable and the food was amazing. I started with the traditional soup, enjoyed the moussaka as my entree per the recommendation of the server and my coworker, and finished with the chocolate mousse - absolutely a divine meal! read more

Came here last night for Winterlicious and was not disappointed. The food was so amazing, that we actually felt bad for paying so little. We started with the saganaki, and both had the octopus starter, and braised lamb shank. Both were cooked perfectly and were impeccably flavourful - the octupus was tender, and the lamb forked apart and fell off the bone clean. Heavenly. Our waiter was amazing as well, providing honest wine suggestions (not the typical suggesting the most expensive bottle move) that complemented our food and our palettes. Servers and busboys came around frequently enough to refill water and wine glasses without being intrusive. Ambience is fantastic for a night out. I may have just found my new favourite restaurant in Toronto, and I'm sad it took me this long. Will definitely be back! read more

Went to this restaurant few times and extremely happy with service and food. Highly recommend saganaki and seafood.

This was such a great experience! We went here on Saturday night for out first date night since having our son. The atmosphere is extremely cozy and pleasant and I loved the decor, very unique. We ordered a bottle of a delicious Greek wine and started off with a salad and the delicious flaming cheese (sorry I don't remember the Greek terms to what we ordered :)) I had the scallops as my main and they were delicious, cooked to perfection and a wonderful healthy choice for a health nut like myself. My husband had a lamb and spinach stuffed pastry (again sorry don't remember the actual name) and it was unbelievable, so good!!! For dessert we shared the chocolate mousse, it was amazing and a very generous portion. Overall, the level of service, food and experience are on par with fine dining while I wouldn't say that the prices are too outrageous. It was a great experience and we will definitely be back! read more

I highly recommend getting the shrimp appetizers and the octopus. The staff was friendly and the service was very fast. Great little spot with a trendy atmosphere. The prices are reasonable and I will be coming back next time I'm in the city. read more

My stomach hurt after eating here. Also, they split the bill incorrectly(I only noticed the next day, dunderhead) On they phone they told me they will refund me the extra amount they charged me, but after I walked there they changed the tune (and made me wait 15min first). Not the way you treat your customers! UPDATE: Came here for Winterlicious with my coworkers. The appertizer was alright, the dessert was fine too (hard to screw up icecream), but the main dish was horrid. They clearly do not have a proper chef, like, say, Byblos. read more

We went there as a family of five and we all loved it. It's rather on the pricey side but it's justified. If you are looking for excellent Greek food, you are at the right spot. Nice ambiance and very nice and attentive service. They don't try to sell you the most expensive thing on the menu but the one they like. This is another beautiful gourmet discovery in Toronto. The chocolate mousse is out of this world. read more

I'm surprised how much I enjoyed the food at Volos considering that I'm not a big fan of Mediterranean food. I was reluctant to come here when one of my coworkers suggested it for team lunch, but the food was so good that I want to come back again! I usually stay away from Mediterranean food because I don't like the sauces they use. (I also can't stand goat cheese and greek yogurt) I had the warm seafood salad and the grilled calamari and they were both amazing! It still doesn't change my overall view of Mediterranean or Greek food but I'll definitely come back again to try other dishes. read more

Volos is definitely a hidden gem that every Torontonian should go to! Having been here for 2 times, I can only say that they have amazing seafood cuisine and service! It might be hard to see how the restaurant looks like from the outside, but the interior is so beautiful and make sure you order Saganaki! read more

What else can I say? Reserving online was painless ( I reserved literally last minute because Boil on King Street cancelled my reservation without notice), the restaurant itself has a chic modern decor, the food (seafood and Greek) were cooked to perfection (the best grilled Calamari I ever had in my life) A great wine list with some spectacular wines from Greece, and last but not least amazing servers (And here is where I have to give a shout out to Brett, who is one of the BEST Servers in the 6ix) If you are craving fresg seafood or Authentic Greek cuisine, you will find it here. One the best dining experiences I ever had from start to finish :). Thanks again Brett for your amazing and attentive service :) If this guy ran for Premier he would have my vote. People want what they pay for and Estiatoro Volos delivered on this :) read more

More like a 2.5. We were disappointed with the exohico. The dishes were over-salted. When we brought it to the attention of our server, she said feta cheese is salty & didn't offer to make things right. Great mojitos. Would return for drinks, but not to eat. read more

I've been here for a normal dinner and for Winterlicious and I'd say to opt for the former to get the real experience. The food was a lot better on a regular night. They have a lot of seafood on the menu, but this place isn't authentically Greek. I'd call it more Greek-inspired. Their calamari and fish specials are really cooked to perfection. The ambience and lighting inside is a bit dark but very calming. The place has a pretty fancy vibe to it and that's probably reflected in the prices too. It's a great place in the financial district for a special dinner especially if you love seafoo read more

Good Greek cuisine located in the Entertainment District. We went after a performance of Tristan und Isolde. We didn't have a reservation, but there were many tables available. They asked if we wanted to sit by the door, but I requested something farther away. The manager was happy to oblige, but told us we could have the table until 9:30pm. It was reserved at that time. The food was good. We ordered the prix fixe menu and the portions were just right! Fabulous wine list, with an excellent collection of Greek wines. At 9:45, the manager kindly asked us to leave, saying that the people were waiting for their table for 15 minutes. Upon exiting, we noticed that no one was waiting for a table. There were also at least 5 tables still open. Good food, strange service. read more

Nice decor and great service, although the food wasn't as great as I thought I would be-more like ok. This place is not cheap as usually it is with other Greek restaurant I've been to, and the portions are not as big either. We've had a good time though celebrating my birthday, but I most likely will not go back. Overall 3 stars is more than enough read more

The food here is delicious. Perfect for a nice, classy business lunch. Always a positive experience here.

Great food and really nice staff. I was in town on a work trip and sat by myself at the bar. The bartender was extremely attentive and the food was good. I had the scallops which were delicious and a glass of rose. I will definitely come back. read more
