Review Cozmos Souvlaki

Chantal Cléroux

I can't stress enough how awesome these guys are. The food is 10/10, the price is great, service 20/10. They know my order, I ordered the wrong drink and they knew it so they sent me the right one. Extremely thoughtful, had an issue one time and they were quick to make it up. No complaints at all.

Few restaurants maintain the standard of business found at Cosmos. Incredible food, stellar service, and genuine appreciation of your patronage. It is an experience worth waiting for, but the speed of staff keeps customers entranced with their assembly line and the fresh aromas of spices with lamb, beef, and chicken. Do not miss the Baklava for dessert!!

This place is a really good value for quick food in general. Souvlaki never disappoints, their take on Greek potatoes is absolutely delicious. Service here is ALWAYS fast and friendly. I've ordered here over 20 times in the past 2.5 years. Prices are great for what you get.

Renée MacDonald

For years now, we have been going to Cozmos Souvlaki and we have NEVER been disappointed! The food is always so flavourful, the vegetables always fresh and the potatoes hot and crispy. We love Tony's big smile and the smiles of his staff. Highly recommend for lunch or dinner! :) :)

Food is always good here, wish I had ketchup to go though- but it was still yummy 😋 fries were a bit drenched in too much oil. Overall it was good.

Catherine Bell

After a snafu with the delivery service, the owner, without hesitation, made a home delivery to bringing us our missing items himself. Cannot tell you how much this impressed me! Awesome food as well! Please encourage this restaurant, they deserve your business!

Brandon Tran

One of the best takeout spots in Ottawa. Unbeatable value. Its fresh, good quality, delicious, and the proportions you get are massive for what you pay. Big fan of the gyro platter and lamb sandwiches.

Sir King BingBong

Food is great but maybe you should be more empathetic to your employees, especially the cashier who clearly is doing the best they can. Yes you are busy and you’re doing the best you can but when a customer overhears and sees how you speak to your employees… leaves a bad taste. Be a kind leader.

Anna Binks

Humongous portions and delicious Greek food. No wonder it is a fave to a lot of my releatives. Once I tried there food at a birthday we decided to have them catered our housewarming gathering. You will not be disappointed.

Alex Cronje

The best Greek food you can get in Ottawa. And you will pay half the price of what you would pay elsewhere. Don't sleep. Go to Cozmos.

Stephanie Maher

Best Greek Food in Ottawa. My family loves sharing the shaved chicken plate.

Brandon Bird

Best owner. Best staff. Best food! Cozmos for life!

Lees Marry

I have been going here for six years and I love it. Consistent exceptional customer service, an outgoing owner and a very clean spot to eat too! Always pleased. Our family just left now with our bellies full :)

Tam Xuan Huynh

This place is awesome. And the owner knows how to treat his customers right! Try the Gyro the traditional way - of course in the Three Meat Special..

Daniel Keating

Best Greek food I've ever had. I would recommend this location to anyone looking for some great food to try. The fries are to die for...

Alex Sweet

Super amazing Greek food! We drive a couple of hours to Ottawa and always look forward to going to Cozmos! Love it!!!

Barbara Cristina

Great food, awesome service! Always make time for Cozmos when I'm in Ottawa.

Marzenna Potera

best greek in town seriously? at least 50 characters?

Mike Rontiris

Best souvlaki in town hands down greek owned and operated

Peter Papadakis

The line up at the door says it all. Customers keep coming back for a reason

Tim Buffam

haha, found this by chance. Facebook truly is wonderful. Either way, food is amazing and the people there are pretty damn cool. Alot of my friends and family love this place as well.

Amy Nagle

Best greek food I've ever had, plus the service is exceptional! Can't think of a negative thing to say! Absolutely love this place!

Hayrullah Hy Elmas

İF YOU WANT GOOD TAKE-OUT GREEK FOOD, THIS IS THE PLACE , WITH LOTS OF SMILES TOO.. SAY OPPAAA TO TONY, ZAK AND IRINA..��

Danica Petrov

Good place to grab lunch. The service was nice, and the atmosphere of the restaurant fit well with its name. The restaurant has some tables inside, and one outside. I've gone here many times and I found that the rice tasted bland and uncooked, and the salad tasted very soggy. Their meat, as well as their potato wedges are pretty good. You can buy a meal from this restaurant at a reasonable price.

Meaghan Piccolo

Not bad, but I wasn't really wowed by it. The food was tasty and prices were good, but not much better than other Greek places. Pitas are prepackaged. And the restaurant itself looks shabby.

Kevin Cleroux

Best Souvlaki in town. Period!... is what I would say if I didn't have to write 140 characters. I tried the 2nd best place (Greek Souvlaki Shack) and while it was good, it didn't compare to Cozmos. I make the drive from Orleans to Nepean about once a month because it's that good.

Jess

Always good food. And quick. You cAn even call ahead for bigger orders. Staff is always friendly. Might need a face lift but food is good. They did change their potatoes. Their old ones were the best.

Totoriko

Best value for money pita sandwich in town. Their fries are amazingly good and the new poutine is just fantastic. Friendly and fast service. No complaints.

Greg Velis

Best Souvlaki I have had outside Santorini. You won't be disappoint with the two stick lamb platter and potatoes. Best meal under $15 in Ottawa.

Foodlover

I love this place. Delicious food, large helpings, good price and the best tzaztiki sauce I have ever had. I have been here numerous times and brought numerous friends and everyone I bring loves it.

Adam Winters

This place is great! The staff is friendly and speedy. They make tasty gyros full of meat and fixings! Super cheap but well made. I go to this place all the time. Loves it!

FoodFan

This place is awesomely delicious . Food is fresh, delicious inexpensive, and the Staff are great. There should be more of these around town!

Supert

Great food, service, and prices ! It is a hidden gem tucked in a strip mall in the burbs. Line-up out the door tonight speaks volumes for their quality food and reasonable prices !

LP

Best Greek food I've had. Everything we ordered was seasoned perfectly, even down to the potatoes. Pork and lamb were tender and cooked well without being dry, which I find a lot of souvlaki places do in contrast. Very friendly and quick service, and they were also super accommodating to my partner's food allergies. Seating area was quaint but not crowded. Definitely recommend!

Caroline Dumont

Looking for your next Greek food fix? Look no further than Cozmos Souvlaki on Greenbank Rd in Nepean. If the constant out-the-door lineup isn't a good indication of how DELISH Cozmos is--the food itself is guaranteed to make you a regular.

Lydia Zervos

My favorite spot for Greek food in all of Ottawa! This place is a hidden gem! The food is simply delicious and competes with the home cooked Greek dinners my family serves up. The staff is always pleasant and gets to know you and your order. The prices are exceptional considering the enormous serving sizes. It's a wonderful place if you're looking for something fast, healthy, and delicious!

Dan M.

Best greek in Ottawa. From customer service to the food there is nothing bad can be said about this place. I was never a big tzatziki fan until I ate here. Delicious food at a great price what more could you want.

Jarritosmandarin

Hidden gem. Best gyros in the city. Hands down. Portions are always huge and staff is always friendly. Sometimes the potatoes aren't as crispy as they usually are. But overall, I won't stop going back! Its my go to Greek spot

Xo.laura16

Love Cozmos!!. I go to Cozmos atleast twice a month. The staff is amazing, always friendly and smiling even when they're very busy! The owner is fantastic, makes sure to say hello to everyone who walks in the door! The food is always delicious and fresh! Great place! Good job to the staff and owners.

Courtney

Amazing food amazing staff!! The whole station eats there and loves it!! The big boss is always servicing customers himself and is so amazing with his staff.

Sarah

Rude staff. Food is soggy and gross. Owner seems sleazy. -----23 Nov, 2014----- Best Greek in the city! Staff are very friendly, especially the young girls they always have at the cash! I'd definitely recommend it

Luke MacKinnon

Christina Aguilera. The souvlaki is clean, the rice is clean, the salad is clean, the tzatziki is clean and that's what I love about Greek food. BUT...the taters are diiirrrtttyy, OH man, like squish with a fork and watch all the oil ooze everywhere. These double-fried dirt wedges will catastrophically knock you into a grease induced catatonic state. I was hoping for those large yellow roasted potato cubes, those are clean. ANYWAY, just a heads up.

Jays1279

DELICIOUS FOOD, GREAT PRICE, BIG PORTIONS, EXCELLENT SERVICE. The best Greek in town, they always remember our orders and names, HUGE portions, DELICIOUS AND FRESH, super kind staff!!! Love THIS Place!!!!

Allstarleb

Overrated. Absolutely nothing special here. In fact the portions are smaller when compared with other greek places. I ordered the chicken filet dinner and you only get one breast while the other places I went to gives 2. The chicken was blah... The potatoes were basic fried wedge fries and the rice was a bit undercooked. Don't buy the hype

India Bedson

Lunch time fav. My co-workers and I usually place a large order weekly and go pick it up. They're quick, have good prices, and the staff are always very friendly when we go in. The side of potatoes is awesome. Can't miss out on those.

Lesley Chapman

Always delicious. We just had Cozmos for dinner tonight! It was delicious as usual. Lovely fresh pita, good salad, tasty chicken souvlaki. Try it.

Faith Vermette

Very fresh amazing food! Very friendly environment! Favorite place!

Lj

The restaurant itself looks like a dump, don't be fooled by all the positive comments about this restaurant being great on here. I came here for the first time today expecting it to be the best Greek I have eaten based off all of the reviews and a friend suggesting it, but I was incredibly disappointed. Their chicken souvlaki pita is so bland, the chicken itself has some flavour but in general it was not good. I had asked for extra tzatziki too and it seems like less than even a normal about on it. It was also a much smaller pita than expected. Their roasted potatoes taste like they were deep fried three times and sat out all day. They taste just like chip truck fries, which wasn't expected. I'm just glad my meal was less than 8$ because it certainly wasn't even worth that. If you're looking for MUCH better Greek, try GO 4 GREEK or Pinelopes kitchen in barrhaven.

Cassandra R.

THE BEST BAKLAVA IN THE CITY!. This place has so much charm, and for good reason. Not only do they deliver quality food with fresh ingredients but do they so with a smile. The staff is so friendly and genuinely want you to enjoy the experience. After trying Cozmo's Greek food, nowhere else can compare.

Cherryxiong2002

Awesome experience!. We asked Cozmos to cater for a school event today and the food was delicious !! The quantity and quality of the food was awesome for the price that was given! The boss and the staff were both extremely friendly and super chill people! I really appreciated their generosity and the way they do business! I highly recommend this place to people AND if you want to cater Greek food, Cozmos is the way to go!

Ericka Gee

This place is awesome! Staff are super friendly, food is tasty and fresh and prices are amazing

Paul

This place rules.

Grace Black

I went to Cozmos and had a salad with chicken. It was so delicious! The serving was huge, they provide friendly service, and thd price was right!

Franco

Great Souvlaki. I have been meaning to leave a review of Cozmos for some time. I can't add more to what has already been said. A small family restaurant that offers what may be the best souvlaki in the city.

Alex

Quite impressed, very nice owner/staff. My wife and I stopped here earlier today and had a great meal. The owner (Tony) was very friendly (as was the rest of the staff) and kind to us. It appears they have very loyal customers (many folks popping in to pick up takeout) and we can understand why. I am Greek but relatively new to Ottawa and I have to say their food was the most authentic I have found so far in the area. Funny enough, all the supposed Greek places where we live in the east side call it "Gyro" (with a hard G), which is a dead give-a-way on authenticity. Prices, quantity were also very favourable, making the drive for us well worth the trip. All in all, I will be returning on a frequent basis from here on in. Σας ευχαριστούμε τa φαγιτα σας ήταν νόστιμα!

Mr.

No more delevery ???? That sucks.

Andrea

Best greek food in the city. Prob THE ONLY authentic in the city.

Ottawa Foodie34

I'm at Cozmos once per week for the family platter, which is both delicious and well priced. Fast, friendly service and outstanding food: a must for any fan of authentic home made Greek food.

Haji Mustapha

Stunning. Wonderful food. Excellent quality and genorous portions. The line-up out the door says it all. Gyros as good as any I have had in Greece.

Kristina

Absolutely delish! I highly recommend

Jenna

Excellent food, always fresh, great value, and fantastic service. A weekly go-to for us.

Joe

Deserves every positive review. Our first time going, we walked in a group of 5 not realizing how limited the seating was. It turns out almost all the tables were set up for couples. As we were ordering, the owner noticed we were together. What a nice guy! Without us asking, he had someone combine two tables and offered to have our food delivered at the same time. We were blown away by the friendliness and service. Two of us got the 3 meat gyro with a salad, and the rest got chicken platters. It only took a few minutes for the food to arrive. The rice was pretty good, but the salad, potatoes, bread, and meats were extremely delicious. You really get a lot of food for the price, but it was too good to waste. We boxed up the leftovers got had it for lunch the next day. I can't wait to go back and have another 3 meat gyro!

Mark Johnson

Amazing. Food is unreal. The price for the portion of food you get, I wouldnt go anywhere else. Food is absolutely amazing and very friendly workers. Love this place it is number one greek resteraunt

Livebridge

In Ottawa it is a place to go. Not only the food, people are so friendly as well. Two thumbs up!

Goob

FAVORITE PLACE LOVE IT!!!!. Went on a recomendation from a friend. It was unreal!!! If I've had better Gyro on a pita I don't remember when WOW!! I got a huge delicious one with a really good Greek salad with alot of fresh ingredients. It came with 5 olives (not canned I hate that),lots of feta and great dressing.I am now a regular customer!!!!!!!! Came with a drink for only $8,what a bargain. Can't beat this place. FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!

Alicia

This place is amazing! This is our go to place if we need a quick bite. I go here far more than I am willing to admit. Food is amazing! Large portions and fresh. The people that work here are so friendly and make you feel very welcome. I will be coming back for many years to come.

Ethian

Like crack, cheap and makes you feel good. Prices are right food can be a bit greasy so try not to eat there more then once a week.

Bev Houghton

Some of the best food around. Not just the best Greek food around but some of the best in general. Especially for the price and portion size. We order Cozmos probably once a week or more sometimes because it's just so good, so fast, and SUCH good value. Personally, the salad is my favorite part, but the spanikopita platter is what I usually order. Always fantastic. My boyfriend will order just a sandwich and we share all of the platter stuff because it's just so much food. We usually have leftovers anyways. The calamari is also delicious and I love that it comes with a nice cold wedge of fresh lemon. Perfect. I also hear the sandwiches are amazing though I have never had one. My whole family raves about them. Love love love Cozmos. It was my aunt that turn our family on to Cozmos and since then I have introduced it to several friends, all of whom order it on nearly a weekly basis as well. They say reputation is a business's bread and butter and they have a great reputation for a reason.

LLZ

Best Greek in Ottawa!. This place is awesome! We take out or eat in almost every week - can't get enough. The food is always great and served with a warm greeting from Tony. Fast friendly service, great food and great prices. You can't go wrong.

Hey You

Great Greek, Fast. Cozmos is the only Greek place we order from since discovering it a couple of years ago. The platters are large, the meat is tender, the pitas are fluffy (not those thin dried-out ones you sometimes get) and the salad comes separately and is fresh. No more soggy, warm lettuce for you! The service is friendly and fast and the prices are fair.

HannahB

Sooo good !! Really filling and so tasty !! Best Greek food ever

Catfishbilly

Amazing Greek, by far the only place in Ottawa that's as good if not better than food in Greece itself, the owner is absolutely a wonderful person and is one of the main reasons I keep going back! And the food like wow just writing this review makes me want to go back there!!!

Anonymous

Best Greek food in the city by far!! Service is amazing and everyone is so friendly including the owner who is also very personable.

Rachelle

My Big Fat Greek Review. Cozmos has the best Greek food in Ottawa BY FAR ... and I've tried almost all of them! It's well worth the road trip from Orleans. Delicious, huge portions and great value!

Niko C.

Having visited Greece this past September, I've had a hard time finding anything similar to what we ate there. Until we went to Cozmos. By far the best Greek food you'll find in Ottawa. Prices are excellent and the portions are perfect. Taste wise, the only difference between the food here and back in Mykonos, was that there is lettuce in the salad here. You can't get any more authentic than Cozmos. As a bonus, the people are friendly and welcoming. The building might not look so nice, and the location is a bit out of the way, but this place was incredible, and I'll definitely be back.

Eddy

Best Greek food in the city and very friendly people with great service

Food

Unreal greek. This is literally the best food Ive ever consumed in my life. Forget the fact that its the best greek food, its simply the best food. The owner is sooooo nice and generous, and the staff is awesome. I had this one delivery guy who came to my house and I've never been so impressed with a cozmos staffer. He drove a silver van, must have been around 18-19 years old. He arrived within 10 minutes of my order and was beyond kind and competent. I was really pleased with the service from this young man. Thank you cosmos, I'll definitely be a repeat customer!

Celeste.tamarit

Good stuff!. I get half an hour for lunch but I still have time to jump in the car, head down to Cosmos and grad a quick lunch. Not only is the food fabulous, but the service is fast, friendly and efficient. They know how to move the food and not suffer with the quality. Great job Cosmos ! You know what the customer wants!

Jack Wang

Great food. Fresh, tasty. Large portions. I'm a repeat customer..

CG

This is a real find. Great food, incredible prices, super friendly service.

Angela

The beef/lamb "gyro" is good - but it's not a true gyro... No fries, so by definition, it's more just a gyro-like pita. The chicken souvlaki platter is massive - potatoe wedges, rice, Greek salad, and pitas. The chicken skewer is smaller, but not overwhelming in spices. The tzatziki is really good too - creamy but not massive cucumber taste. Overall, one of the better Greek food locations in Ottawa. It's very clean and prices are extremely good - the only time I remember managing to get a good-tasting gyro pita for around the same price was in Greece!

Omer Humayun

Thursday is Greek night. And we ALWAYS go to Cozmos. The best part about his place is if you are a repeat customer, Tony and the boys remember you. No matter how busy they are, you are out of there 5 minutes after you place your order. The food is ALWAYS fresh, the portions are ALWAYS generous. Our favorite is the pitas, and the salad with chicken and hot peppers. Most important, is that they are ALWAYS happy to see you, and appreciate your business.

Finner

Amazing food, great, friendly service. Don't let the location and exterior fool you. Large portions and fresh food. Love it!

Little Bear

Great food. Great prices. Big portions. Fast service. The staff and owner treat you like family(the good side of the family). Austere decor -- you go here for a fantastic eating experience, not for the atmosphere.

Madison Ditullio

Words cannot describe how much I loved EVERYTHING about Cosmos. The service was amazing! The people are so down to earth. And don't get me started on the food! It was so good I just died and came back and died again cause it was good. I have so much leftovers cause the portions are HUGE. Its not a sit down resturant but you can sit down if you would like. I would come here again fer sure :)

Terry-Sam

Yumm! fantastic! Best Baklava in O-town!!. I love this place! The Food amazing and fresh every day! The owner - Tony - one of the nicest cheeriest guys in town. Pop in at 11 am see how hard these guys work chopping and prepping everything fresh. The 3 meat Gyro @ $4.40 - super price for an out of this world sandwich. We just moved to the area and have made at least 20 visits in 2 months. Whenever we get unexpected guests I boot it over to see Tony and get Baklava for desert. Try the Chocalate Baklava - you will love it. Great food, great portions, great prices. Friday and Saturday evenings they do a booming takeout business. "efharisto Tony!! Opa !"

Digger

Great Food - Outstanding Value!. Wow - I did not expect the food and price from this little whole-in-the-wall kind of place. Let's be honest, the outside building is lacking...and if it was not for my curiousity, I would never have ventured in - BUT boy am I glad I did. To date I have brought a half-dozen work friends there and we all love it! This is a MUST go to place for a quick Greek food fix. This is not a fancy place at all...more takeout counter with small tables type of place but great food.

Jack W

Just amazing...

Just Another Sarah

Wow!. My friend introduced me to this place during lunch hour last week.... Ohmygoodness! This place is absolutely amazing, I've been there three times in a week! The price isn't bad, the people working there are VERY nice, and the food is amazing! Ive been recommending this place to all of my friends.. Try it!

Donna

Absolutely Amazing!!. I LOVE this place and cannot recommend it highly enough. The food is absolutely delicious and only fresh ingredients are used. I honestly couldn't get over how crisp and green the lettuce was, or how plump and red the tomatoes were. The portions are very generous, as Greek fare should be, and the price is beyond reasonable. The authentic Greek gyros are without a doubt, the Best ever, the Greek salad is to die for, and the tzatiki sauce is borderline addictive. This little place is so clean and bright and the service is extremely fast. What more could you ask for? I'll tell you....the service is amazing. When you walk into this little family run business, they act like they've been waiting just for you. So friendly; so nice. You can tell that they're happy; happy to see you, happy to serve you and just plain happy to be doing what they're doing. How rare is that in the service industry today? 5+ stars from me & mine.

C And W

Possibly the best service ever, both delivery and in house. They are so friendly and the food is really fast and fresh. The baklava is awesome. Lucky to have this in the neighborhood!

Herb

Finally good value Greek food in Ottawa. In my experience Greek food is about portions. Prior to Ottawa I had never left a Greek resto without leftovers. Some meat and salad and then hit me with the potatoes and rice. Its cheap and filling and everyone wins. But my Ottawa experience was not good. Small portions are not consistent with my vision of Greek food. But Cozmos gets it done! $14 for 2 skewers and ALOT of potatoes, rice and salad. Tzadziki and pita INCLUDED (what up with some places charging extra for this?)! Now me and my date ate in and her exact words were "Im glad I didnt dress up" so its not fine dining, but the food and the value is great! I wish I was in the delivery zone.

Thomas Grazynski

Awesome Greek place for a low price!!!. The service is very good. The owner gives free entrees away to his loyal customers. The atmosphere is pretty good. There is some Greek music playing which contributes to a good atmosphere. The price isn't bad, but some of the items are overpriced such as the entrees (fries, salad) and the souvlaki. The menu has a decent selection of food ranging from different types of meat such as chicken,beef or lamb to different entrees. The food is good depending on who cooks it. The chicken gyro is tasty and the tzatziki sauce as well. The salad isn't very good and the portion is very small for the price asked. The potato wedges could be better. Recommend this to someone who likes Greek and lives close to the Greenbank area.

Cozmo

Wow wow wow. The best greek food in ottawa and the owner is actually greek .fast service very clean and delicious food best thing that happened to ottawa must try the 3 meat pita friendly staff and entertaining to watch them work when its lined out the door

Sunjapee4

Best Greek in town bar none!!!!!!! Great quality Greek Food and phenomenal value for your money

Alex Dee

Great. After reading the reviews, I decided to orderfrom this place, not realizing I was way outside their delivery zone. They made an exception for us and the result was one of the best delivered meals I've had in Ottawa. The food was delicious, the portions very generous and the price was very reasonable. I strongly recoomend it and hope they'll make more exceptions for us!

Better IS Better

Best Value / Service in Town. This is the best fast-casual spot in town. 8$ Special and the food quality / portions are unmatched. You can find Tony behind the counter greeting customers as they come in and providing unmatched service. A hidden gem

Soccer Mom

Love it!!!. My teenage boys would eat there every day!!!! The three meat meal is the best value in town and the ingredients are all so fresh and delicious! The people are all friendly and we will be regular customers!!! My sons even walk over after school for a "snack"! Plan to use them to cater for my office meeting this month...I'm sure I can get some new fans in the office. Soccer Mom

Travis Russell

Omg, THE BEST gyros in town! And great prices and awesome service

LS

Delicious!. I have lived in Ottawa for five years and have been unable to find an authentic greek souvlaki/gyro place until I came across this restaurant. Fresh Ingredients, and friendly service. Did I mention FRESH Ingredients? I highly recommend this place!

Tino

AMAZING. Absoloutly F*ing amazing food. first time there today afte my wife raved about it, and im not big on gyros, but these ones tasted like real meat and were amazing cant wait to go back
