When it comes to appetizers this place is probably not the best Greek place to go to. I find the calamari rubbery, The Greek fries are absolutely horrible (with tomato sauce?!), and their Pita bread for the Greek bruschetta is not very good....
HOWEVER... this place knows souvlaki and they know it well. Aside from Square Boys on Danforth and their chicken souvlaki, this place makes what very well could be the best souvlaki in Toronto. Pieces are juicy, big, tender and spiced perfectly. Tzataiki sauce here is whipped and perfect. I’m a a big fan of the meat at this place.
The service & food were excellent. We sent back a flat beer with no pushback from the waiter. They were OK with us bringing in a birthday cake. The service was brisk and attentive. good spot for a celebration.

Great place. Have been twice.
Ordered: Chicken Souvlaki with Shrimp Dinner and LG Beef Dinner. Comes with your choice of 2 sides and a Greek salad.
Food: Beef was cooked as I asked (medium rare) it's tender and soft, well seasoned. Chicken is moist on the inside, crisped on the outside. Potatoes taste fresh and not soggy, nice and soft. Rice is well seasoned. Overall, it's not heavily salty, which I absolutely hate when my souvlaki is too salty. Their feta is nice and creamy, melts in your mouth a bit. Shrimp were small, but they're battered in a crispy batter and deep fried (part of the dinner specials).
Portions: they give large portions of the potatoes and rice. The LG beef was enough to fill my medium sized stomach and share a couple of pieces with the BF.
Environment: family atmosphere, has a fireplace, very old school Greek themed place.
Service: feels very family oriented, servers were nice on both occasions, speedy to take our orders. The staff there seem to really care about the restaurant.
Every time I go to Astoria, I leave satisfied... And full. The portions are really big and the prices are good. I don't think I have left without taking some food home. They have the best shish kebob of any Greek place I have ever been. I have tried almost everything on the menu and every time it is amazing. They also have the best tzatziki sauce Ever! You can eat it by the spoonful.
Top 3 restaurants in west end. The tzatziki is fantastic! Lots of garlic LOVE IT! The food is fantastic, the service impeccable, and the place is always busy... hmm I wonder why? One of my favorite restaurants in the west end. To be honest, I didn't want to write this review because if you are reading this you will probably want to go there, and I hate waiting ...but they deserve the amazing recognition that they are clearly receiving. Keep it going and we will keep coming!
Best souvlaki on Danforth. Great food but parking is difficult fri/sat .. watch out for the parking Nazis very abundant and quick to tag....nice place love it top 10 restaurant for me. souvlaki mmmmm!
Went on a whim. My bf and I were in the neighbourhood tonight (a Tuesday) and decided to just go in and check it out. Boy were we glad we did! The food was really good, the service was good and the atmosphere was lovely. We each had leftovers too, the portions are very generous. We were also surprised at how busy it was for a weeknight but we can certainly understand why!
I had the chicken souvlaki dinner and he had the pork.
So Tasty & Perfectly Seasoned food !. Where do I start ? My husband & I ordered the Chicken Souvlaki dinner & the Lamb Souvlaki. Both were seasoned to perfection.The food literally melted in our mouths. This location has tastier food than the Danforth one. I usually can't even finish my Lamb dinner but I did today! The service is excellent ! Our food arrived pretty fast and our server was so nice! We will definitley be returning to this location!
The BEST!. One of my favourite restaurants ever. I LOVE the greek food here! It's always my favourite place to go for chicken souvlaki. They also have by far the best tzatziki sauce!!! Yes, it's strong and thickly whipped (how it's supposed to be) not runny like some other greek places. It will leave your breathe smelling like garlic for awhile but it's worth it every time. Everything is always fresh and delicious! Whenever I go to a restaurant and I'm disappointed I just make sure to come here next time to make up for it. I've been coming here for years now and never ever get tired of it. Greek fries are also a must!
Fabulous Meal. Took my family there for a birthday dinner and it was the best food we have had in a Greek restaurant in 10 years....great service and good value for the money...will be going often.
Absolutely wise choice for Greek dishes, fancy and huge space, quick service & friendly staff. I went there for a dinner with my partner, despite being less than an hour from closure they seated us.
The space is bright and lovely, and the lamb was delicious. I would highly recommend this for someone looking for an very affordable dinner
Truly fantastic and authentic Greek food. Service was quick and friendly. I forgot how cool the decor is in this restaurant. It was also fresh and cool with the hot weather inside.
You have to have the saginaki. It's an experience here and a must try if you love cheese. The chicken and lamb souvlaki plates are very generous with both potatoes and rice and the meat.
Great experience and will be going back again.

The portion size was quite large, which was nice. The chicken and beef were served on top of a bed of rice (basmati I believe). The rice was perfect, well-separated and light, and it did not overpower the other elements of the dish.
Our server was quite nice. She brought us water in a timely manner. Our meals came out in a reasonable amount of time. Overall, she was quick, efficient and friendly.
Epic meal! I was so glad to stumble upon this beautiful restaurant. The food was great, atmosphere and service were impeccable. Highly recommend. Can't wait to go back!
P. S. The baklava was amazing and huge!
Amazing venue - the decor has you feeling like you’ve been transported into a friendly greek home.
We ordered 2 dips, and 2 souvlaki plates. The plates came but our waitress had forgotten about the dips. We patiently waited and when she checked in and realized, she apologized and got our dip right away.
She later went as far as offering baklava on the house and especially after hearing it was my birthday. We also asked for a phone charger and another staff member was able to help us out.
Overall really solid. Huge portions .. I would personally go for the chicken souvlaki over the pork next time , just because the cuts were too thick and too fatty for my preference.
Ordered the lamb chops with potatoes and vegetables, everything was delicious and the Taziki sauce was to kill for. The waiter helping us was welcoming and very friendly!
Great food, portions are really good! Staff is super friendly and the Saganaki is must have appetizer.
