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.

Small kría pikilía (cold assortment) dip platter: 1. tzatziki (strained yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, olive oil, dill, lemon juice) 2. taramosalata (pale pink tangy spread of salted cured fish roe (tarama), historically using grey mullet or, more commonly, cod roe and carp roe, blended with potatoes, olive oil, lemon juice vinegar) 3. homous (hummus, cooked chickpeas, tahini (ground, toasted sesame seed paste), lemon juice, garlic, olive oil; actually a Levantine dip, not Greek) 4. melitzanosalata (roasted mashed eggplant, olive oil, garlic, lemon juice or vinegar, similar to baba ganoush, but without the tahini) 5. garlic pita bread 2. Saganaki (Greek cheese with lemon juice, flamed with brandy, tasted like kefalograviera (medium-hard cheese, nutty and less salty than kefalotyri; has a high melting point, allowing it to brown while maintaining structure, creating a thick crust)) 3. Horiatiki (village) salad (Heirloom tomato, cucumber, green pepper, red onion, Kalamata olive, block of imported feta cheese (~8x8x1.25 cm) with Greek oregano, Greek EVOO) 4. Lamp chop with lemon 5. Loukaniko (Greek pork or lamb, sausage with orange peel, fennel, oregano, and thyme, smoked or cured) 6. Galaktoboureko (Greek dessert of creamy semolina custard baked between layers of flaky phyllo dough, soaked in sugar syrup) Everything was stunningly good. US$77 for 2 with tip, no alcohol. Really friendly server who is a 3rd generation family member that owns the restaurant. Told him I had lived in Greece 1971-1974. He had visited Greece several times, so we traded Greece stories. Nice! Greek Metaxa 7-star (years aged, 80 proof) brandy is so expensive (now: US$35/750mL imported, $21-32 in Greece; 1974: $7-10), they use Russian brandy for the saganaki (sad, I know! Greece inflation has varied from -4.6 (2013) to +26.6% (1974), averaging 7.8%/yr, with cumulative increase 1974-2026 of 6.75x, so a 3x increase in the price of Metaxa 7-star seems like a deal!). I mentioned to the server that the Horiatiki salad was the best I've had since living Greece! Greek restaurants where I'm from (San Diego, California) use Roma tomato, small feta crumbles (so little feta it's just "feh", not imported from Greece), no oregano, cheap olive oil.

My only two critiques are: Calamari was super oily-- makes it tasty but also half the package was oil! As well, the tzatziki was more like sour cream in that it was creamy, white, and while it boasted a good flavour, it had little in the way of those refreshing cucumber/herb bits.

Instead it was a block of feta cheese covered in toasted honey and sesame seeds. Really tasty! - Seafood Linguine: Hearty pasta, good flavour with the tomato sauce, would have liked more seafood. - Greek Old Fashioned and Negroni: Alcohol was fairly priced. They also added a couple of shots of mastika on the house! Bonus points for the lively vibe, spacious seating, and friendly service at the this spot. While the Danforth is filled with Greek restaurants, this is one of the better ones.

The drinks they made were good. For the main, had the chicken Kleftiko which was crispy and light pastry. I thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

I decided to go with the Pork Gyro Pita ("Wrapped with Tzatziki, Tomatoes, Onions, and Fries"). It was ready within minutes and I sat down to dig in. I opened the container it came in and grabbed the pita and a bunch of meat immediately fell onto the table. Likewise, the wrap was so haphazardly closed up and packaged that it was impossible to eat that way. I wound up using a plastic fork for most of it. That problem aside, this is one seriously tasty concoction. The pork pieces boast a crispy, crusty texture that I found irresistible. I could eat that stuff all day. The other components are equally good, too. I'm sure I'll return to Aristos but next time I'll forgo the pita.

AWESOME FAMILY RESTAURANT AND VERY REASONABLE PRICE!…read more We've been to quite a few restaurants along Danforth since it's more convenient, and we thought - why don't we go a bit farther from the major intersection and see how it goes? I'm glad we did and what a great experience at Pape Village! I'd admit we aren't too familiar with Greek cuisine so it took us a while to go over the menu and had to ask a bunch of questions. It was a busy night (even though it was early on a weeknight), but the staff was very patient in answering our questions and gave us some good ideas. Unlike some other places in the area, they didn't rush us in placing the order at all and we appreciated that very much! We started with two appetizers: taramosalata (a fish roe dip) and fried calamari. The dip was great - the typical good quality you'd expect from a decent restaurant. What really surprised us was the fried calamari - it was perfectly deep fried with thin batter, and the squid was so tender :) Then, we ran into a "challenge" - we were sort of half full by that time, and judging by the food portion from other guests, we decided to order just one main course to share. It turns out to be a great decision as the main course was HUGE!!! We wanted to order the Kontosouvli Pork, but it's only available during weekend thus we ordered Pork Souvlaki instead. The pork was nicely grilled - super tender and juicy. Given the high food quality and excellent services, the price was more than reasonable. We'll definitely visit again, probably during weekend in order to try the Kontosouvli Pork :)

Came here for dinner and got: - Dip Combo of tzaziki, taramosalata (fish roe), tirokafteri (spicy feta cheese) and roasted eggplant: Easy standout was the eggplant, with its distinct flavour and interesting texture. The other dips were generically smooth and standard tasting. - Salted Cod: When they say salted, they mean it to a too-much degree. This was basically salt in fish form, if the fish was also a bit rubbery. Side garlic mash, though lumpy, at least helped valance the extreme saltiness a bit. - Grilled Octopus: Standard grilled taste, a bit rubbery. Base salad it sat on was forgettable. Service was efficient and friendly. While we were there, it was filled with diners who seemed to be enjoying their meals tremendously, and who definitely seemed liked they'd continue the long line of folks who give Pape Village glowing reviews. So if you like Greek food and want to support a small business, drop by since I may just be in the minority here.
