I loved this place. Things about this that were interesting was that this version of Greek food was…read moregreat and had a different style from the Texan Greek food I've eaten before. Everything was scrumptious, tasted home made and made you want to just eat everything on site. The dining room was small, but let me tell you, everyone and I mean everyone kept coming here. Service was great, we were treated so well and the cashier had the ability to be social with everyone that came by as well. What I liked about this establishment was the authentic Greek Orthodox aesthetic. They had such beautiful icons, cool music, like it was the full authentic experience. We got Niko Nikos back in Texas. Don't get me wrong the food is great, but it doesn't have the authentic vibe that this place had. I'm not in Canada, but if I had to come back this would be one of my go to spots.

The space is large with quite a lot of seating but when it gets busy you might not be able to snag…read morea seat so if you come with someone you should have one person go sit down to secure a spot! But what can I say? I've never had pork that was as tender and juicy like this! It was so surprising cause the pork souvlaki from food courts are always on the drier side but not here! And the in-house tzatziki sauce? Mouthwatering! The portions (if you've not already heard) are huge and explain the higher price for a plate (around 23$+). If you're not too hungry, you can definitely split a plate. Despite the fast paced environment, the staff kept a good vibe and even offered to have me come back after eating to pick up my cheesecake slice so it can be kept cold until then. That to me shows they care about our experience dining at their restaurant. Can't wait to be back!

This place is located by the Vaughan area full of restaurants and shops. Came here with my whole…read morefamily for dinner. The place is a food court style seating arrangement so you'll have to find your own seat. Order and pay at the front as well, staff will clean your area once done. Each dish comes with a tray, prices for dinners are on the high side roughly $20-28 but portions are massive! The fries are pretty good, quite oily. Chicken souvlaki is not dry, flavourful as well. Got the fish & chips which showed two pieces on the photo but I only got one. Disappointing. Place is decent. Rating 4/5, would come here again and order something else.

Came here for a second time recently since my first visit was so amazing! This time I brought two…read morefriends with me so that I could try more of the menu, and spoiler alert: we all had a lovely meal haha. Food was delicious, service was friendly, prices were very reasonable, and the drive there was 100% worth it! Further breakdown below for what we ordered if you like planning your visit ahead of time like I do. Pulled the following prices from their menu posted on Google Reviews that they posted in August/September of 2022 so prices may have gone up due to inflation since then :') Still worth it if you ask me! (we ordered all of the below, split the bill, and ee still each paid way less than $30 per person - left feeling so full too) -[SAGANAKI] $13.95 (8/10) This is a kefalotyri cheese that is lightly floured, panfried, and then flamed with Ouzo! It is also served with a lemon. I opted to not squeeze lemon juice on my portion, but my friends assured me that the lemon helped tamp down the saltiness of this dish. That's to me is the only reason it isn't a perfect 10/10 dish was because I found it too salty when eaten on its own - would still order again though! -[TARAMOSALATA] $6.95 (10/10) This is a spread of creamy fish toe topped with Asteri extra virgin olive oil! One of my all time favorite spreads is this one haha. Their spreads are served as just a spread so you'll have to order pita separately to consume it if that was your intention. I personally like this spread (and the next one so much) that I just slather it on everything I order :D -[TZATZIKI] $5.95 (10/10) Tzatziki is typically a yogurt-based spread that consists of garlic, and cucumbers! The one they make here is so good in all possible ways. It is just salty enough, has just the right amount of garlic, and the portion is generous. -[PORK SOUVLAKI STICK] $1.85 (10/10) These sticks are sold individually - there was a slight miscommunication to our server as we tried to order just ONE stick to try first but she ended up putting the order through as three of each. She made the right call haha. The pork one was better than the chicken one if you ask me - meat was very flavorful, and juicy! -[CHICKEN SOUVLAKI STICK] $1.95 (10/10) These sticks are sold individually! First time I ordered these, they looked dry but hot damn, biting into it makes you realize that looks can certainly be deceiving. The chicken was moist and well seasoned! Absolutely delicious. -[TYROPITA] $5.95 (10/10) This is a phyllo pastry filled with feta - we originally wanted their spanakopita (feta AND spinach in the phyllo pastry) but their bakery was out of it so we opted for this variant instead. Decently sized portion for sure! Pastry was flaky as heck in the best way -[VILLAGE STYLE GREEK FRIES] $7.95 (8/10) This is a dish of fries that is traditionally dressed with imported barrel feta. Personally, I think it could use a little more like perhaps a dollop of tzatziki to liven it up but otherwise, it is certainly a good dish to pair with the spreads -[PATATES FOURNOU LEMONATES] $3.95 (10/10) Oven-roasted lemon potatoes! These must be cooked in its sauce for a long time because boy, are they flavorful :) Always love a good order of lemon potatoes so if you do too, be sure to order these -[GRILLED PITA] $1.00 Warm pita that is brushed with Asteri extra virgin olive oil that is cut in four pieces. We got two orders of these to share, and it was plenty because of everything else we ordered too I made a reservation in advance because I always like to be sure I can get a table but on a Sunday at 1:30PM, we were the only table :O The last time I came here was on a weekend night, and it was a full house so that was appalling this time around. Highly recommend you check this place out for good food!

Loukaniko pork pita came with a sausage inside. It was ok. The sausage on its own was tasty but the…read moreflavour profile did not suit the pita. Pork souvlaki stick came with a small piece of toast & was quite a lot of meat. It was good quality meat but the char was too much so it was a bit bitter. The herbs were fragrant but the flavour was light. Bougatsa was big: phyllo pastry with cream: like a galaktobouriko without the syrup. It was very flaky. It was not very sweet so if you like less sweet pastries, it's a good choice. Stevia Cola was decent. It had no sugar in it. The staff were very helpful & provided good service, explaining the menu items to me in detail.

Inside, the restaurant exudes a clean Mediterranean calmness that instantly transports you out of…read moreToronto's winter and into what feels like indoor al fresco dining. It's the kind of space that encourages ordering a half litre of wine (their house versions are only $27) and easing into the evening. A basket of warm, crusty bread starts the meal, with our server snipping dried oregano right into the olive oil - a fragrant, rustic touch. A thick, zesty red pepper hummus also arrives for those who prefer a spread over a dip. Philoxenia offers calamari ($30.95) grilled or fried. The appetizer consists of two sizeable portions of squid with a rather tasteless "house sauce" (a seafood sauce and mayo concoction?) on the side. The calamari itself was fresh, though I wish the thicker end had been cooked slightly longer, since it bordered on gelatinous. Skip the house sauce and pair it with the roasted pepper hummus instead; it works surprisingly well. The lamb chops ($59.95) are the star: four beautifully grilled chops served with a thick smear of tzatziki, soft lemony potatoes, and simply sautéed vegetables (broccoli and green beans). For me, it's these minimally fussed-over dishes that makes for quintessential Greek dining. We added the grilled vegetables ($27.95) on the side, though there really wants a lot of vegetables. Think two thin slices of zucchini and eggplant, a single roasted carrot's worth, and a couple rings of grilled onion. What is there is delicious - drizzled with balsamic and sprinkled with feta - but for a dish centered around vegetables, I expected more. For vegetarians, a mound of rice and lemon potatoes help round it out into a decent main. One thing I genuinely appreciated about Philoxenia is they don't try to rush you. It's a restaurant that lets you linger, offering a leisurely meal in a quiet, spacious dining room with plenty of breathing room between tables... something that's increasingly rare in Toronto's newer, sardine-can-style restaurants. Philoxenia nails that cozy, unhurried Greek dining experience that makes you want to stay a little longer and sip a little more wine.

From crisp zucchini towers to baklava built tableside, every dish here makes an impression. This…read morebeautiful Greek fine dining restaurant pairs excellent service with plates that are as tasty as they are artfully presented, creating a memorable dining experience. We started with the Philoxenia special appetizer -- a striking tower of thinly sliced zucchini, eggplant, and cheese, crisped to perfection. Paired with a cheesy dip, it was an irresistible combination of crunch and comfort. For mains, we ordered the beef mousakka and a Greek-style paella. The paella was a standout -- a flavor-packed dish loaded with mussels, shrimp, and calamari in a rich tomato sauce over tender orzo. Dessert came with table-side theatrics. Layers of phyllo for the baklava were heated in honey, then stacked with ice cream -- a creative and indulgent finale that built anticipation as we watched. Service was attentive without ever feeling overbearing. We felt genuinely well cared for throughout the evening. On our way out, we noticed a gorgeous garden-style patio at the entrance. Next time, we'll be requesting a table there for sure.

First - the latte was super delicious. We both got latte with oat milk - they were extremely smooth, creamy but the beans were also dark but not overly bitter. It was perfectly rounded, and buttery. I can't wait to go back & try more variation of espresso drinks. Pastry wise, it was insane. The loukoumades delivered - it was super fresh with fragrant honey, and rich cinnamon powder on top. It was perfect with the coffee. The absolute peak, highlight of our meal was the Trigona. Holy s, that gotta be one of the best pastries I've had. The cream was smooth, silky, the pistachio was sweet and floral, and the phyllo? That was divine intervention. That last bite of the Trigona sent me straight to heaven. I'll be back often whenever I'm up north.

Despite dining in, the knife and fork were plastic, much to the disappointment to both of us. Pita bread tasted good. Salad had a bit too much olive oil. My lamb was a bit undercooked and tough. Might try other Greek restaurants in the future.

June 9/19: Disappointing meal at a disappointing restaurant…read more Our server was clueless, he didn't know the menu, didn't know what was on-line, was extremely inefficient in his service. The table was wobbly so he folded up a napkin to try & stabilize it & then used his foot ineffectively to install it! The table was also sticky & uninviting when I sat down. We went to this place As my table mate wanted Moussaka. The Chef & server didn't even know it was on the menu! WTH?? As to the food...ordered Saganaki for the appetizer & it was served incorrectly, no flame at the table! So basically all sizzle with no steak. My main was the double chicken breast dinner. Virtually tasteless & was not nearly hot enough to boot! As I said earlier...disappointing & will definitely not go again.
