Marathon Souvlaki Restaurant

Great value for your money! I had the chicken pita platter with the Marathon salad, and half portion of fries and rice. Excellent! The chicken pieces were big and juicy. Service was quick. Will definitely come back.

I read some of the reviews and was hesitant about going in but I’m very glad I did. I had the lamb chops and they were fantastic. Exploding with flavour, tender and cooked to perfection. Wow. The more than generous sides of fried potatoes and Greek salad made for a very filling and satisfying meal.
Service was a miss though. My waiter did the job but a complete lack of finesse. He went to another table so they could pay and he put his handful of plates on their table. Weak. I watched another fellow serve the dinner plates out, dropped a potato on a customer’s lap, shrugged and continued putting the plates down. No finesse. Friendly, sort of, but no finesse.
Food was a 5, service maybe a 2.5!

This is one of the better Greek restaurants. Try this out and you won’t be disappointed.
The portions are good with large quantities of rice and fries. The ambience is comfortable. Getting the mix of fries and rice is the way to go. The Gyro plate has plenty of meat! The Greek salad is wonderful with a solid piece of cheese. Great value and taste for the price. You can order 2 entrees for 3 to share. The server was very friendly. As the restaurant was quite packed… Getting the bill was very slow. If you are in a hurray, as for the bill early.

I love marathons. I usually get the doner pita with the marathons salad. It’s amazing. Best dressing.

Really did not like the food here. Our waiter was in a rush and not very attentive. Made me feel like I was bothering him a bit

Yummy quick Greek food. Good for take out and even better for an early lunch. Love the tzadiki and fries. The Gyros are not bad reheated just ask for the sauce on the side! Fairly priced and easy to share amongst friends.

Always delicious. Eat in and take out. Great service. Great food! Never disappointed. The BEST souvlaki and the best baklava in town!

Best restaurent in the whole westisland, lunch specials are amazing. Crazy how a gyro with soda fries and salade is cheaper thn a trio at shitty dagwoods doen the street. This restaurent is in complete power. Long live Marathon

Great service and food everytime. I made reservations since we were 6 people, we were able to grab a booth. I ordered the pork souvlaki stick with marathon salad and rice. Love the dressing with the salad and chip fries. I can never finish the plate since the portions are huge so I took it home. My boyfriend loves the chicken brochette platter which takes bit longer to prepare. He placed his order as we were seated. TVs played the hockey game and even though it was packed, the noise level was good not too loud.

Gyro plate — awful. Was highly recommended by the waitress but was really not tasty. I don’t recommend this restaurant

This restaurant has always been consistent. The food is great, the service is friendly & efficient and the prices are acceptable. The portions are very generous. The meals are delicious and well presented. The staff is welcoming. The only thing that could be improved is the dining area. It can use a little renovation but it’s definitely not avoidable. I highly recommend this restaurant for some great greek cuisine, you can’t go wrong!

Good food and for a good price — most Greek spealcities — good for family and riends get-​together — nice patio too.

Tried it for the first time today, really fresh food excellent service, a little loud inside, but will definitely return soon, very clean inside

Good food, clean restaurant, friendly service. Food is priced right, the portions are perfect size and what can you say about the famous Marathon Salad? Love it!
This location is always buzzing. Plenty of parking available. Nice sized terrasse if one feels like dining outdoors.
It is a good bang for your buck restaurant. We’ve always been served well and eaten well at every location. Cheers!

Good food, good service and great price, you can’t go wrong at Marathon’s. My personal fave is the chicken pita plate with marathon salad and rice, not sure what goes into that salad dressing but it is to die for and you can buy a bottle on your way out.

The good:
— not too pricy
— portions are decent
— free garlic bread
— service is fast and efficient
The bad
— not the friendliest service (servers left even before I could finish ordering)
— pretty standard Greek fare
Overall, a pretty safe choice to grab a bite with decent portions.

Best Greek food in town! The service is great, the staff is friendly and the food is awesome. I always choose this place

One of my favorite places to eat for 20+ years now. Traditional Greek cuisine that hits the spot, especially when you need a boost during a crappy day.
The original is located in Laval but this new location keeps the food and service on par as the original.
A few notes :
— Many different and delicious dishes to try out. My all time favorite is the chicken pita platter with their delicious marathon salad and fries.
— The Tzatziki is fantastic.
— I recommend any lamb dishes they have.
— Service is extremely friendly and quick.
— As I go only for lunches due to its proximity at work, I cannot see how slow the service gets for dinner (as its the main issue for the laval location). However, this place tends to get pretty packed at lunch so make sure to get in a few minutes early or be forced to wait some.
— The price tag is honest and worth every penny.

Wow, the best vegetarian Greek pita I’ve ever had. The ingredients were very fresh, including the tomatoes and feta. I loved the rice (but forgot to ask if it was vegetarian or not).
Quality ingredients and service. Would love to come back again.
PARKING: Large lot and easy access

I generally dislike the West Island, but I’ll make an exception and enter its perimeters when I’m in the mood for Greek because I love Marathon. That’s it, that’s all.
They usually start you off with bread that is, to be honest, sorely lacking in flavour. After all these years, I’m still not sure what they put on it — olive oil? Butter? Or maybe garlic butter?
I always order the chicken stick with rice and the Marathon salad. That said, you can ask for potatoes, or half rice/​half potatoes (which is what they generally serve). As well, they have another salad option but I don’t remember what it is because I never have it. The chicken is perfect, with just the right amount of juiciness and flavour. I’m sure most people would say the rice is just ‘OK’ but I really like it. It’s got a nice taste to it and its not sticky or clumpy. The salad is good but they do tend to overdo it on the dressing, so if you don’t like too much, I suggest asking for this on the side. The salad is comprised of Iceberg lettuce, some onions (that I remove), tomatoes, cucumber, 3 Kalamata olives (yes, I counted) and a slice of Feta cheese. Personally, I’d like to see a few more olives in the mix!
The downsides: It’s a Greek restaurant and they make you pay for Tzatziki, which boggles my mind every single time. Hello? Isn’t that a staple when eating Greek food? I eat my meal sans sauce, because as far as I’m concerned, it should come with the meal.
The staff can be a little neutral (i.e. you don’t really feel the love — they’re not very smiley). Go for the food! Just remember that Thursday-​Saturday nights will likely be packed, so be prepared to wait or go early.

Un classique du midi dans le Technoparc. Marathon Souvlaki est reconnue pour ça nourriture et non pour son staff, ni pour c’est beaux menus plastifiés. Un choix s’impose sur le menu midi-​express: Doner (gyros) pita, moitié-​moitié (frites et riz), une salade grecque et un Pepsi. Sans tomber dans les clichés l’essayer c’est l’adopter. Pour moins de 10 $ avant taxes et pourboire c’est difficile à battre.
Les midis de semaines sont bien remplis, surtout les jeudis et vendredi. Il est recommandé d’arriver avant midi. De plus pour les groupes de plus de quatre une réservation est de mise.
