Estiatorio La Porte Grecque Reviews

Food has become rather oily than usual. Scampis are the size of a child's thumb. No regard to special requests when reserving a week in advance. Good calimary though.

Very good restaurant! Too bad its Sunday hours do not favor family celebrations at lunch time. This is another opportunity to make a difference with other restaurants in the area ...

Bring your own wine, nice place in a very old style building. Nice ambiance.

Go at lunch time or when it's not busy otherwise quality suffers. Get the chicken oregano. Very good. Comes with fresh salad.

Certainly one of the best Greek restaurants in Montreal. Inexpensive, great service but parking difficult to access on weekends.

I've been many times before and never been disappointed. We decided to host my Mom's surprise 60th here. We were a big group, around 20 people including a couple kids. We were treated so well, the food was great, everyone's meal came around the same time, it was just a fantastic experience from start to finish. This is great restaurant for hosting large groups!

We made a reservation for 4 people 2 days before. When we arrived there reservation was not registered ... The owner is not apologetic or even eager to find us a table. He has ignored us for saying. Then the service was absolutely rotten.

I love this place. Never had a bad experience. Go with friends and people you want to finish many bottles of wine with :) With rustic decor, dim warm lighting classy dining, it's my favorite place in the West Island. Bring your own wine ;)
Very reasonable prices (average $16 per person, dinnertime) and the waiters are always nice. Go here. Enjoy the filet mignon, oregano chicken and almond lemon sole. !!!

Good food and good prices. Staff is friendly except for someone who looks like the owner.

Overall,the food is good but the service sucks.The owner looks like if he is always pissed off.The waitress did not even ask us what we want for the appetizer,she just bring us the salad.My son wanted the soup because he dislikes salad.The salad was just lettuce with some sauce.

Good food, average service. Also very much on the "Hi" side of the "Bonjour-hi" language barrier. Even when the waitress spilled water on one of the diners.

Food is good and the portions are big. It's good value for the money. Service is okay. 2 time slots available at 6 pm and at 8 pm.

Almost impossible to contact anyone to make reservations.

La Porte Grecque is a fantastic Greek, well managed restaurant, a family run business with staff that reminds you of your last vacation in the Greek islands, I highly recommend it, RSVP preferred

Free parking...good Greek food at reasonable prices.

Good avv. Good value for money, but often ordinary service over the phone. We sometimes have the impression that we do not want to welcome us. That said, the lamb is excellent. However, do not look for halibut (online menu) or swordfish (printed menu), they are never available. Frog legs and octopus are also sometimes missing. Otherwise, several plates are really good for the price. Book, otherwise you will have to wait.

Not expensive and good food bring your own wine is a great feature however the lights have to be changed into place very hard on the eyes yellow lighting

Super good and cheap! Very good destination for any occasion, bring your own wine.

Very yummy and super reasonable ....try the lamb chops

good food, good service, very nice place for a nice dinner

this place has been around forever.
the service is good, food is great for the price.

now onto the bad.
the restaurant is small, always packed, and very noisy.
the parking situation is a nightmare. you're better of parking across the street at Adonis and running across sources boulevard.

Great food, meat fish and seafood. Generous portions. Good service. Really reasonable prices.

Old dude rude! U get what you pay for ! They need to renovate b4 my cheap butt dies from it collapsing on me, other than that I never had a problem besides a waiter guy with glasses stealing my half a bottle of wine. Then had the nerve to ask my waitress to ask me for my number. Most servers are great really enjoyed their service but some are strange characters!!! True about parking too tight and when u park at the grocery store you need to jwalk a busy road , not safe and who wants to run after eating!

Out of our table, My plate was the last to come out. My friend sitting across from me ordered the same plate, hers came without vegetables and potatoes. The shrimps on my plate came out and smelled rotten. My whole plate smelled of rotten fish. Not pleased.

One of the worst dinner I've had in the last few years. I made a reservation for 2 and when we arrived they did not have my reservation the owner greeted us as if we were bothering him and gave us the worst table in the crowded restaurant. To be owner I would be embarrassed to offer this table to my customers. I was just looking forward to leaving, besides the food is not bad but ordinary. We eat better by being comfortable in many other places. I give 2 stars instead of one just because the service has been good. It is certain that I will not return and that I do not recommend it.

They deserve a solid 5 star! The food was super delicious and the staff was amazing! One of west island's hot spot

It was my first time visiting the place, it was a party of around 30 people and only one waitress was assigned to us. She had the rudest attitude, even the woman that was on the main floor was rude to answer that we had to go upstairs. The upper floor is very dark, bad lighting. The dolmadaki entree is not tasty at all. Main platter which was in my case, chicken, was delicious. I would not be visiting that place again, nothing special and the entire staff is rude.

Excellent service and good food ... Generous plate.

All meats and rice over cooked to near inedible imho. Plates are priced as if the food was prepared to perfection but putting it in my mouth, i feel like it should have been served from a take out spot.

Best Greek restaurant on the island and I've been to many. Based on my recent trip to Greece, this is the most authentic! Service suffers on busy nights.

It was Valentine's Day 4 years ago in 2014 and that's with a large group of people and it's a BYOB bring your own booze or wine or beer restaurant. We had a lot of reserved tables and the service was actually great and the food was good and everything was fine and it's an easy place to go with it reasonable pricing and a bring your own wine or beer locationsand this is as good as any other of the locations. It's in the West Island of Montreal so depending on where you live it could actually be handy. There is even some parking and they have two different levels and they packed the people in on weekends

The owner of this restaurant send his staff home on a Saturday before 10 o'clock while on his door it clearly states 12 midnight, and was doing everything possible to get rid of us. So even if people state that the food is good but not cheap, that all depends on what you eat, the ambience and atmosphere sucks when you have the owner breathing down on you and staring 10 ft. away. You don't believe me go on a Saturday and try staying pass 10 pm.

Bad and slow service. Angry staff, rude host at the front Food is good, but not good enough to deal with the rest.

The food is always amazing , the service is pretty fast and the staff is very friendly + it's bring your own wine! Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because of the small parking and that it's often hot inside.

Great place for family get-togethers! My extended family comes here annually!

What an incredible restaurant. The food is delicious, the portions are big and the prices are great. Also exceptional customer service from their manager Kevin! Highly recommended A+++

Delicious food, just wish the waiter would listen and stop jumping down my throat when I said numerous times I needed a drink

Great food, great price, great service. A much older crowd at lunch time but our group had a great time!

delicious and quaint...original buliding from the 1800's i believe which created a beatiful and quite romantic atmosphere!!!! loved loved LOVED all the food was not too expensive and the portions were very generous!! do not leave without trying the calamari!! honestly one of the most delicious greek restaurants in town

Lunch is excellent, service impeccable, fair is great

Overall average. Prices are ok. Portions are ok. Food could be tastier. I've had better Taramosalata, fried calamari was fresh but batter didn't have much taste and 1 wedge of lemon in appetizer size. Needed more especially that no sauce is served with them. Chicken cesar salad was ok, chicken was good but very little dressing. I like that it's BYOW. For Greek food, I prefer Marathons.

great tasting food at acceptable prices. their apple pie is out of this world

Cheap good food, depending on your server, crappy attitude

It s a old place, but you get Decent food for the price, and nice service.

Tight quarters, but really good food and good portions.

Very good food but I advise you to book before you go there

It says they open at 11am for lunch but when I entered at 11:30 I was told that I'm early and the kitchen opens at 11 but they only begin serving at 11:45-12:00. I recommend they change their hours of operation if they dont operate according to those hours.

Good menu choice but poor reception and service; inadequate meat cooking; average food quality

Really nice place amazing vibe... Mary thank you for your service... you are such a sweetheart

Excellent value and food quality for the price. Bring your own wine.

Very nice ambiance. Food was great at very reasonable prices.

Great food service and excellent price plus you can bring your own wine

Watch it during the hot days! I've been there last week and the rice was bad. It smelled oweful and the waitress told me it's the spices. Was sick for 3 days

Delicious, good price, lovely service and nice set up - what else do you want from a restaurant to want to come back again! Thank you guys, our whole family loved it and everyone was satisfied with their dish, will definitely come again

Flawless service from Oliver our server. Good value for money. Excellent pinot noir. See you soon.

Bring your own wine. Greek style kitchen, plentiful portions, reasonable prices & good service. Lamb chops are excellent. Well worth a visit. Reservations needed most nights

One of the worst, tasteless and service-poor meals I have had in a long time.

Went with 10 of my friends to celebrate a birthday. I order sea food plate. The server didn't mention that scalloped is wrapped with bacon.didnt either mention on the menu. When I received the plate, I realized the scalops wrapped with bacon.So I told them I can't have bacon. Can I switch to something else instead that. They were agreed it. My plate came back after 20 min, but this time the food was really cold. I felt it came from the fridge. So for the second time I have to send my plate. Then my plate came 15 min later . By that time all my friends finished there meal and there were ordered dessert. I got frustrated and lost the appetite. I Complain to the manager but he was very rude. The way he spoke to me, it was not his problem if I lost my appetite. He said if I want to bring the meal home, I have to pay for it. I end up leaving that place with empty stomach.
I will never recommend to anyone to this place. Very bad and poor service.

Service was excellent. Waiters were respectful. Food wasn't the greatest. I was disappointed with the octopus, there was loads of oil in all the dishes, chicken was good though. Wish there was less oil so we can taste the flavors of each dish. Dishes were a good size. No espresso. Great atmosphere. Large menu.
No Parking.

Love this place food is on point. After. 5 years i go back and its the best

Service was GREAT!!! Maria treated everyone like regulars, so warm and welcoming. Place is sooooo cozy, food is authentic greek. Started with fried calamari, sauce was very good. We had the chicken brochette and lamb chops for main dish, both were so tender, very well seasoned. It's a bring your own wine so the value here is amazing. We'll be back for sure!

Amazing food, amazing service, adorable setting. My all time favorite place to go.

Love this restaurant. The food and service have never disappointed me and I ve been going there for years. Everything is always fresh and the portions are generous. Friendly service and great atmosphere. I m so glad it has re-opened after the Covid-19 shut-down. Going for dinner there today and can t wait!

We love their lunch specials, amazing food with reasonable price! Expect long lines and crowded parking lots, because everyone wants to eat here!! Once they get you a table and get your order, everything would be served quickly! Amazing warm toasts, fresh salad and hot lentil soup, we enjoy all of their main dishes; the ones we always order are chicken brochettes, lamb chops, Montreal s best calamari, scallops wrapped in bacons! We love their coffee and chocolate cake dessert as well, just enough to fulfill my sweet tooth! Nice ambiance and beautiful stone chalet
