This is a small, but clean and sleek restaurant located not far from Granville Island. They have a smaller lunch menu that is served from Wednesday to Friday, as well as a larger dinner menu. I had their Spanakopita and Moussaka off of their lunch menu. The dishes were quite good, and the prices were reasonable. I was quite impressed by their service: the food was prepared reasonably quickly and the staff I encountered were friendly and attentive. This is definitely a joint worth visiting.

Spanakopita ($10):
3.5/5
This consisted of a phyllo pastry filled with spinach and feta cheese, and served with a side of tzatziki. The phyllo was fantastic, and was hot, fresh and crispy. The filling was flavourful, although I did find the spinach to seem to have a slightly bitter aftertaste. I really enjoyed the tzatziki, which was thick and tangy, and contained a good amount of garlic.

Moussaka ($16):
3.5/5
This consisted of eggplant, zucchini, and ground meat, topped with bechamel, and came with rice, potatoes, and Greek salad. The moussaka itself was quite tasty, with the ground meat being tender and well-seasoned and the bechamel quite rich and creamy, with a nice sweet fragrance of nutmeg. Unfortunately, I did find the vegetables to again have a slightly bitter aftertaste. The sides were also quite good; the Greek salad was well dressed and had a good amount of feta while the rice was well-seasoned and fragrant.

Summary:
Food: 3.5/5
Price: 4/5
Service: 4/5
Overall: 4/5
Recommendations: Spanakopita, Moussaka

We have been here a few times and find this to be the best Greek food in Vancouver, we really recommended the roast lamb! Don’t get delivery food may come cold so we alway pick it up or eat in!

Apollonia Greek Restaurant is a small Greek restaurant located just on the outskirts of Granville Island. Given the building renovations they were doing when we visited at the end of July, it was rather nondescript from the outside which probably explains why it wasn’t super busy. The interior seemed rather clean and avoided the overuse of white and blue colours which many other Greek restaurants in the city use.
