We were in the area and went to this restaurant based on the many positive reviews I saw on tripadvisor, They are correct, and we were delighted with our lunch.
Walking in you notice the delicious aroma of good cooking. The staff are friendly, courteous, and efficient. The decor is bright and clean, with big photos of sunny Greek islands which non the less allow you to dream a little that you are there. It was quite full the Tuesday we went by, but the service remained fast.
My wife loves grilled Calamari, and it is quite hard to find with most places opting out for deep fried. That is probably because it is not an easy dish to get right. Most often it is overcooked and rubbery. The grilled calamari here is exceptional. Tender and tasty with just the right (tiny) amount of "blackening". I ordered the Lamb Kebob and was very happy when it arrived rare as requested and again tender and tasty. You get a choice of sides. The rice is lemony and delicious. The roasted potatoes were yummy. I almost never order them, but went for the onion rings, and they were to die for. Leave your calorie counter at home. Nothing that tastes that good can be bad for you. It comes with big Greek Salads and the portions are large so I noticed many people asking for and cheerfully receiving "doggie" boxes.
Finally, we shared a piece of an over the top fudge cake with chocolate sauce, and more chocolate and more fudge. A big chunk of that came home with us.
First class. We'll go back again when we are up that way.
We had the home burger which was good and large. Fries where fresh. Seems like a good place. Would recommend if your in the area looking to eat

We have been to Loui's Kouzina for dinner once before and liked it, and it was time for another visit. We got there about 6 pm, and the restaurant was about half full. By the time we left, there were no empty tables. Today we happened to be seated beside the open kitchen, which was a continuous hub of noise and activity, with the head chef keeping control of the chaos between dining room and rajout orders.
We started out by sharing one order of Spanakopita. Seasoned, cooked spinach, wrapped in concentric rings of philo pastry. A little crunch, a bit of softness, a lot of flavour.
SWMBO ordered the small Greek Salad and added grilled filet of chicken breast. The chicken was sliced into thin strips, served on top of the salad; it was a bit dry.
I had one of my Greek favourites: Moussaka. This was one of the better ones. The eggplant was cooked all the way through, the ground beef had flavour, and the bechamel was soft and pillowy, with a pleasant flavour of its own.
Service was very good. Although we did have a primary server, they use the team approach, where everyone pitches in to make sure that the customers' needs are met.
My colleagues are crazy about the food here; we order from Loui's at least once a month. We love to order Saganaki and Grilled Kalamari to share, and then we usually get Souvlaki on Pita. All their meats are tender and juicy, with some fatty parts, which probably helps! Both the pita and the buns here are freshly baked and still warm when they arrive at our office. One of my colleagues swears that the buns taste BETTER after you re-bake them the next day! Greek food in Markham probably doesn't get more authentic than Loui's.
I discovered Loui Kouzina on Zomato since there were so many positive reviews. I felt like I had to try their food. The atmosphere is lacking, nothing special. I tried their chicken souvlaki plate as well as their Moussaka and salad. The beef Moussaka was quite delicious. It tasted like a sheppard pie. It was creamy, soft and flavourful. The chicken souvlaki was like any other chicken souvlaki (nothing special but tastes good). Overall, I would say this place is a bit more pricier than other commonly known greek restaurants. The portion sizes are not very large but is enough for an individual that's not extremely hungry.
I've been here a few times now to order take out for lunch. I have tried the small pork and chicken souvlaki plates, both with the roasted potatoes. The food is absolutely delicious and fairly good value for money. The plate comes with a Greek salad and a buttered toasted hot dog bun. Maybe it was garlic bread? It's hard to tell among the rest of the garlic in the meal. Either way, it was good. I plan on keeping coming here for the occasional lunch, as it's nearby to my work.
When i think of Greek food, I always think of Loui's Kouzina! Forget the Danforth, this is where it's at! Love their appetizer dishes and main courses. The value is there. Their service is not amazing but good. I haven't been up there in a while but I'm sure if I went for a visit now, it'll be exactly like my last visit. Try their flaming cheese dish!
Excellent!!. Very friendly staff, quick service, clean. Have had numerous lunches here and all have been extremely delicious and fresh. Souvlaki is very generous and they give you tons of buttery fresh garlic bread on the side. The seafood combo is also really good. Great for those who love Greek/Mediterranean food and grilled meats. Two thumbs up!
Very pleasurable experience!
Nice, clean place, no dusty-sticky..
Food was amazing, big portions. We got small gyro and small souvlaki. Very tasty! All home made!
Friendly and fast service!
Wanna good greek food?
Defineyely stop by!
OMG this place is AMAZING. I recently go there with my friends, we were around 10 and each of us order different kinds of food also with desert! everything was so good, and servers were so friendly. i really liked the pictures on the wall and also music. this restaurant is one of the best Greek Restaurant in Markham, and i recommended to everyone who like Greek food.
Small plates are delicious here ! I would recommend this if you are hungry !
Portions are well sized at the price. My go to place for souvlaki dinner around the area. Very home style. A++.
I chose pork souvlaki on a bun and it was generally good, but the pork pieces are somewhat on the small side and a little chewy; it's hard to find good pork souvlaki.
The tzatziki was actually quite good, which is something that I find can be a real hit or miss item. I'll visit again but next time it'll be the chicken souvlaki or gyro in a pita.
**Update: After another visit, I had the small plate chicken souvlaki with the roasted potatoes. The chicken was tender and flavourful, the potatoes could use more salt and pepper, but overall the food was good and the serving is quite large, excellent value for the money. I've upgraded my review to four stars.
Whenever I crave Greek I crave this place! Made to order meat, succulent, and delicious! Their pork is my favorite, has the right amount of fat!
Prices are reasonable too, I believe ownership changed a few years ago, but the cooks appear to be the same, so the food is still top notch. We've been going for years!
I give them 9/10!
These pictures are from a pre-covid dining experience but I have also purchased takeout from them a few times during the pandemic as well!
I really liked going here with my coworkers when I used to work nearby because the pottions served here are HUGE 🥳
-[TARAMOSALATA] $7.50
It looks like a pink paste/goo haha but don't be scared! The reason for its color is because it is made out of a blended combination of red fish roe, extra virgin oil, garlic, and lemon juice!
It is also served with grilled pita slices 🤤 This is definitely a saltier dish that they serve but I honestly love how much of the taramosalata that they give! I love spreading it on a freshly toasted piece of bread 🍞
-[CHICKEN SOUVLAKI-SMALL PLATE] $14.50
So THIS is the "small" plate but I am 99% sure I was unable to finish this in one sitting 😂 because of the aforementioned large portions! Comes with TWO skewers of chicken souvlaki, a greek salad and your choice of one of the following: fries, mixed vegetables, rice, or roasted potatoes!
(I highly recommend their roasted potatoes 🥔🔥)
They are extremely flavorful and just warm me right up when I eat them 🤤
Definitely give this place a try if you're looking for delicious Greek food for a good price 🤩
If you’re in the area and craving Greek food, I recommend coming here.
This restaurant is easily walked by and missed, but it’s great. The food is always cooked fresh and is consistent while the staff is friendly.
I always get the chicken souvlaki plate and I’m never disappointed with either the portions or taste.
The restaurant is small and has a bit of a wait if you come during busy time. Luckily you can do take out as well.
This is a nice place for Greek food. Best value and delicious. The grilled octopus is outstanding. We love the pork souvlaki.
One of my favourite places for Greek food uptown. Small restaurant with excellent food and great service. Great flavourful gyro that's not too salty or dry and excellent tzatziki sauce that tastes very fresh. You will want to slather it on everything.
I absolutely love this place! Best Greek food on the planet. Great prices, great food and amazing service! Servers are super friendly! Two thumbs way up👍🏻👍🏻
