This is a copy of my review on Trip Advisor.
Hey Carly! We promised ... Travellers ... This is a really nice place to rest your tired bodies.
We ended up in this little corner of the world because someone, at a service station on Portage Ave., had said "there's a resto up the street a bit". Supper, food ... we've had a day of walking around downtown Winnipeg and we needed refreshment and sustenance. Not many people and certainly no line up at the door ... but needs must, as the expression goes. In we went. The young waitress suggests we find a table and there's one in the corner, she's in with the menu in no time. I'm thirsty and ask for a "tall glass of water, like a beer glass, please." She was back quickly with one (normal) glass of water for my wife and ... a beer glass of water for me!!! We'd found our supper place for the next three nights.
Ah ... the food, right? Tasty, right-sized, uncomplicated but welcoming. All in the image of the place, its owner (whom we meet on our last visit) and also the manager/waitress: Carly. We were there three times and each of us ordered different meals, so a fair selection off the menu. I'd go back anytime. As for the price, I would class it as reasonable and good value.
But what will remain longer than the food taste is the fun service we had. On our arrival the second night we were part of the family or the 'regulars', "our" table awaiting. On the third visit, we met the owner who already knew about us!! I also remember that there were quite a number of "Save the dishes" drivers sweeping in and out. So we weren't the only ones liking the place, locals like it too.
Keep it up gals!
Oh ... and in case you want an ice cream, Carly said to go to the next corner up at the Sargent Sundae. And she was right. Join the line up and enjoy.
The other thing right at hand, after a meal at Gus & Tonys is the Assiniboine Park, across the street. More on that later, but really ... you can't miss this little corner of the world.
I went to Gus and Tony’s at the Park today for the first time. We had specially prepared lunch of lamb with roasted potatoes and rice with bean pilaf. It was not only absolutely delicious it was a wonderful experience. Arnaldo and his staff made us feel very welcome. The food and the company was outstanding. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Great food! Great service! Great people!
We had Gus and Tony's cater Christmas Eve dinner for us while my mom was in hospital. We booked a lovely private family room there and all the family came. It has always been our tradition to have ribs on Christmas Eve, and Gus and Tony's came through with flying colours! Great meal!
Awesome food at great prices! Would recommend this place to all!
Such good food! large portions for an excellent price.
Great food, wonderful atmosphere, and the best staff! Can't wait to go back!
Excellent food as-well freindly service . We have been there numerous times.
The Swizzle Styx had lunch here yesterday and it was ok. We started with calamari and onion rings, onion rings were great, calamari was awful, fishy tasting and very rubbery. The meals were good especially the Greek pita and the gyro. Chill burger was ok, Reuben was ok and the Greek platter was good. Service was ok at best. They are opening a new tapas restaurant next door so we will be back to try that.
Great restaurant. My experience was very enjoyable. I got the gyro and thoroughly enjoyed it but there were many options on the menu that I would like to try in the future. The service just added to the experience. We were seated right away and had a pretty waitress with blonde and purple hair who had a great personality, attended to all our needs. Would definitely recommend and go again.
Food was fantastic, owners were lovely, had a great time there although they should really look into the staff. When I went there to eat, there were about two other tables, and the only waitress - a tall girl with blonde and purple hair - was constantly on her phone and sitting down at a table in the with a boy - safe to assume her boyfriend? - she didn't even notice that my water was empty most of the time. I noticed the other tables staring too but I decided to not say anything because while the staff could use a little work the food was amazing and this little restaurant is definitely a hidden gem.
I made a reservation for 10 to 12 people and ended up with 14... but this wasn't a problem for the staff! They were extremely efficient and very friendly, not even rushing us after closing time. I was very impressed with the service and the food was very tasty... especially the home-made onion rings. If you like onion rings, then you should really try this place!

After trying to get a table at a local Greek favorite, Olympia Diner and being told the wait was an hour, we decided to go down the road to Gus and Tony's. My parents had previously had a bad meal there, but I convinced them to go based on the good prices and extensive menu options I saw online.
It was a Saturday night, so it was reasonably busy. There were never less than 5 other tables in the restaurant. I ordered the gyros with the lemon chicken rice soup. I really enjoyed the gyros, but the soup was not my favorite. I forgot to take a photo because I started eating so fast.
Both of my parents got chicken souvlaki with potatoes and rice which they enjoyed, and Greek salad. The rice and salad were also good, next time I would get the salad instead of the soup.
There were only two servers on, but it wasn't noticeably slow or anything. The gyros by itself was $8.25 and the soup was $3.99, good prices and you can customize your sides as you wish.
My parents, who had a negative experience here before both said they really enjoyed it and were impressed at how the food and atmosphere has changed. We will definitely be back.
great place!!!! the staff was friendly and helpful. i had the deluxe cheeseburger with fries and it was awesome. my friend had the chicken gyros with a greek salad she said it was the best she ever had. will definitely be coming back often.
Opah!. Great place to go for burgers and gyros. big portions and lots of flavour. coming back often for sure!
Great meal picked up tonight for two.. Called in a pick up order from across town, they judged my driving time perfectly! I entered the restaurant to find I was greeted by name and the nice lady said my order was all ready. Very courteous! I left with my order seconds later and when I got home I was impressed with the deluxe cheeseburger with bacon and chili fries. Prepared very well and still warm after the short trip home. Will go back and received good value for the price. Thanks Gus and Tony's!
Great restaurant under new owners. Two fantastic specials in the evening were Portuguese chicken roasted with a shrimp kebob or more chicken in case you don't like shrimp the other special was fresh red snapper or Atlantic salmon in a lobster sauce with shrimps or just as well more fish if you don.t care for shrimp.Ask for other items not available on the menu like for example seafood pasta or a starter of fresh delicious clams or barbecued ribs entrée For dessert we had a Portuguese custard freshly baked witch reminded me of something I had down town Lisbon,for this one you must order 20 mnts in advance Good luck guys and hope that you continue with the same first class quality food
Yummy burger. Will be returning
I'm impressed!. We came to Gus & Tony's for lunch on Feb 15th because we were not far away, and I had made a mental note to come here, next time we were in the area. I ordered a Reuben sandwich with yellow mustard, and my man ordered the Beef/Lamb Gyro. We also ordered Fries with gravy on the side. Our server said she was fairly new there, but she was friendly and attentive, so she'll be great! My Reuben sandwich was perfect - not too much meat, but enough, with tangy sauerkraut and gooey cheese. Delish! The fries are home-made and perfectly cooked, and we got a lot of nice long fries. The gravy was hot, and very delicious. My man said his Gyro was good too. Gus came out of the kitchen, and asked us how everything was. Great! This is a nice restaurant, and the food is good. Although we don't live in the area, this is a place I would be happy to come back to. Thank you!

Love it! Went with coworkers for lunch on Friday and the food was delish! Had the deluxe cheeseburger and Poutine. Way too much food, but the burger was flavorful (as I would expect from the guy who previously owned Daly Burgers) and the Poutine was perfect!
I'll definitely be back and going to bring the hubby to try it out as well.
Went there today for an early supper. Had the cheeseburger and chili fries, she had the clubhouse. Very good. Will be back.
Service here is one top notch place! I recommend anyone who loves Greek food to come and enjoy this love restaurant!
Delicious food, large portions, very friendly staff. Great dining experience. Will most definitely come back.
This place is awesome! Almost everything is home made and so delicious! I don't know why there's even negative feedback especially about the salads! No authentic Greek salads have lettuce to begin with so the lady who had say about that should get to know her stuff cause at gus and Tony's they offer this salad! For the amount of stuff they have on the menu I'm surprised they get the chance to make everything! Gus's burgers are amazing too! Can never go wrong with that!
I'll be back. This place is cute, friendly ,and the food is fantastic!

Good Greek Grub. This place has a solid burger pedigree, as "Gus" is the man who originally brought us "The Burger Place" on Portage and "Daly Burger". I guess he and his son have decided to broaden their menu to include a bunch of fairly classic Greek options. Went on Friday at lunch and the place was packed. Service was friendly but the kitchen was a little slow (perhaps understandably). Had the lunch special which was a ribeye steak sandwich. I don't know why they bothered to ask us how we wanted our steak - the thing was a fast-fry cut and only about a third of an inch thick. You're getting it medium. Having said that it was well seasoned and tasty, and on some pretty yummy garlic toast. Fries were really good. Looking around at the tables nearby it appears they do a brisk business in burgers and sandwiches as well as assorted greek style pita wraps. Portions are generous. If I had to be critical, my greek salad was mostly lettuce and had only one lonely olive in it. It really mirrors a lot of the aspects of the Park Tower restaurant that was in this location previously. Not a bad thing.
Wonderful. As a big fan of greek food, this was The best lemon potatoes and rice I have ever had. I had the pork Slovakia special with spanicopia and Greek salad. Wow is all I can say. Can hardly wait to try their hamburger and fries. Restaurant was very clean and friendly. This is the first restaurant I have ever reviewed, but it was a must for a big pat on the back.
Quite good. Looking around .... Quite good.
Looking around the clientele you would think that this place had to offer a wide menu range for a burger joint. After one does not usually calamari at cheeseburger cheeseburger.
fresh' tasty' great service.
Worth a return trip.
Great casual neighbourhood spot. Perfect spot for a casual dinner. Hamburger and fries are excellent. Very friendly staff and Gus and Tony are warm and inviting.
Great place for cheeseburger and fries!
Deluxe Chesseburger a must have!!!!!
New Rising Restaurant!. Definitely a restaurant GEM in the city! Really fast service on a busy day, portions are decent for prices. Tried the fries/chillie, fish/chips and chicken gyro which was huge and very filling. Everything was so tastey! I can't imagine how busy they will get in the summer for being part of the park! Two thumbs up for Gus & tony! and Lotis the awesome waitress! hehe
Good portions and very reasonable prices! A job well done by Gus and Tony!
I went here for breakfast. The meal was hot and plentiful. My eggs were done perfectly!
I loved Park Tower & thought I could get my Greek salad craving from this new place, salad was tasteless & greasy! Burgers are huge, sloppy! It was ok, miss Park Tower;( we were regulars there!! Not sure I would come back again
DELICIOUS!. A couple girlfriends and I went for dinner at Gus and Tony's for the first time a few days ago. To say it is amazing is an understatement. Upon arrival we were greeted by Gus and Tony themselves, very friendly! The environment is upbeat and the service is excellent. Two of us ordered the Greek Salad with Grilled Chicken Breast and the other went with the Deluxe Cheeseburger with Fries. The portions are HUGE and the prices are great! Worth every penny. If you haven't already been you need to check it out. Definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Winnipeg.
Mmmm. Tried out Gus & Tony's a week or so ago and was really impressed! Prices were great for the amount of food that you're given. I had the chicken gyros pita and it was unbelievably tasty. Will for sure come back!
Baked Spaghetti. The Spaghetti sauce in the baked spaghetti is absolutely the best.. Service is friendly as you overlook the action of Portage and the park. Marvelous pictures throughout the restaurant expressing the beauty of Greece.
My girlfriend and I ate here shortly after opening day and the service was great and the food was even better! Portions are large and worth the price! Highly recommended family restaurant!
I arrived near the end of lunch hour and the kitchen had run out of an ingredient for the item I wanted, but they went out of their way to accommodate me. Thoughtful, personable service. Delicious, creative food with touches of ingenuity. Warm, slightly exotic atmosphere. A lunch that made my day.
Food was good, service was friendly and meal came out quickly.
June 14, 2016. Friend and I went for a late lunch. Very clean place and female owner? very hospitable. Greek salad with grilled chicken was perfectly seasoned and home made hamburger were delish! I see now they have been commended for their ribs and BBQ. Will definitely return to try other dishes.
Friendly and quick service! Amazing fries and burger.
Nothing spectacular, but definitely good food. I would say it was slightly over priced, and your pop is a can. Not exactly a bad thing but they bring you it while you wait a long time for your food (30ish min). So a plus it's from scratch, but quite a long wait.
Been here a number of times. Service is good but can be a little slow at times. Food is very good and all of the food and sauces are made from scratch in-house. I would say that it is comparable to any of the other Greek restaurants in the city.
