    Authentic Greek Restaurant. Great food, great price. Drove…read moreby many times without stopping, my mistake. Charming family restaurant, friendly service. Started off with hand cut fresh breaded Calamari with a seafood sauce. Hot, Crispy and delicious, (can order as a entre or a meal) Had the special Lamb Chops, mouth watering cooked to perfection with salad, fries and rice. Good grill marks, melt in your mouth and excellent flavor. This was the most expensive thing on the menu. Great Value. Its our third time here and had the gyro plate, and New York Steak wanting us to come by and try more. Keep it up guys good work.

    Newest restaurant that was preceded by Regal and Kavala, we decided to give Gyro Grill a chance. We…read moredid not get our hopes up as Regal and Kavala were not the best of places. Boy were we wrong! This is an authentic greek restaurant, with authentic greek cooks and cuisine. The look of the restaurant blew us away (especially compared to the previous places). The good: Great restaurant look (the paint and decor makes it look bigger). The welcome at the door by the manager was great. Speaking of her (co-owner by the way), she is what a manager should be, which is greeting people, helping staff, goes around to look if you are satisfied or need anything. Food is TERRIFIC! Everything is fresh, and you can taste the freshness. They have their own poke bowl (pork or chicken, no fish). Tzatziki sauce is to die for, best l ever had! Lots of flavours in the food. Great service. Pretty good portion sizes. Strange enough that l notice, but they have a coat rack to hang your coats. Also it seems the bathrooms are clean and they got rid of the "Regal Smell". They let my wife order off the kids menu (and that is way before she mentioned she had a surgery that limits her eating and portion sizes). They just want you to be happy. Oh and huge size cake, they brought us four forks (being a group of four). The bad: You could be waiting for a while before you receive your plate (everything is cooked from fresh, no precook or freeze, so that's normal). There is no English menu (but we were told they are coming). In the end, what a GREAT discovery! We will definitely go back.

    I'm not going to be slapping you "high five," but Nikas is definitely a high four as far as stars…read morego. Nikas is a solid neighborhood Greek taverna. I was here years ago with a friend living west of the Decarie Expressway, thus close enough to this area restaurant. I took a few photos and the photos of the food - partially devoured - were not flattering, so I took them down. I may have also taken down that older review. I remember liking the food and the casual atmosphere, so I returned. I'm glad I did. I like their combination platters (assiettes) and I choose from the souvlaki items ... typically chicken. Everything on the platter ranged from very good to excellent and it made for a filling meal. I like that they have that little rectangular slab of feta cheese if you choose the Greek salad accompaniment and I much prefer the potatoes presented this way instead of as fries. Needless to say, the chicken put onto the souvlaki batons was very tasty. The interior is like that of a diner and there is no mistaking it's a Greek one. For one, like most of them, it's mostly blue and white like the country's flag, and there are paintings, murals, and statues of things Greek. If it's daylight, you can sit at the tables in the glassier front part. If you want more illumination, you can sit in the booths a little further in. I have eaten in both areas. The owner was extremely pleasant and she was the server for the table. She was also interesting given that not many people in the Montreal area have linear life experiences and/or have blinders on. I like how this added to the local true-to-form Montreal flavor of the experience at Nikas. Nikas offers good value and features good lunch prices and combinations, although this visit was at dinner time. Still, the price-quality-quantity rapport was to my liking. You can drive here - further west on Sherbrooke - and find a place to park on the street. If you want to use transit, the Metro will take you to the Vendome station and, from there, it's a short 5 to 10 minute hop on the 105-Sherbrooke bus to the Hingston Avenue stop. This is such a good and practical option for a type of food I very much like. I hope to return.

    Great classic breakfast that's affordable, healthy serving sizes for all meals. Souvlaki is also…read morehighly recommended here

The first time we tried going it was complete pack and it was a 1hr wait. Second time I tried going it was starting to get packed around 5:30-6pm and 7pm was fully packed. We ordered the soup of the day - cream de broccoli which was good! the garlic escargot, very cheesy garlicy (Great start) steak with shrimp and steak with half lobster. I would say it started slightly going down hill with the main course; which i was very excited for but it was just average. reminded me of vieux duluth growing up. We ended with a cake i chose the forest cake it was was horrendous. It was dry, hard and the taste was off. every birthday growing up i use to love forest cake and as much as the appearance was similar the taste was definitely not there. I would say overall it was ok. But i expected a lot more from all the good reviews online and from how booked and occupied it always is. its a very Caucasian restaurant so when i significant and I walked in we got starred at, which at some point gets uncomfortable. Would i go back....no...was is nice to try atleast once yes.
