Fresh and tasty, huge portions. One of the mains will be more than enough to fill you up. Friendly staff too. I am in the habit of ordering the village sausage or gyros plate, 20 each, to takeaway and bringing it over to Beach Hill Wines, up the street, where they'll pair it with a good glass of white for me. Great living in this neighbourhood!

I had one of the most incredible meals of my life here on February 7th, 2025. I was meeting my friend from back in college and we decided to try this place for our once in a few years meetup, and my goodness what a perfect choice. Incredibly yummy will probably be in my top 10 favourite meals of my life for the foreseeable future!

This place is absolutely phenomenal! So glad I came across this greek resto in my search. It’s not smack in greek town but the drive is well worth it! The dishes were sooo delicious. My husband and I shared the mixed dip platter and the eggplant was so nicely roasted. My chicken souvlaki was cooked to perfection and was tender and juicy along with the soft potatoes which are my absolute fav! My husband got the lamb souvlaki and was pleasantly delighted they cooked it medium - medium rare and he said it was great as well. Portions were fantastic and we would definitely visit this restaurant again!!

This place was so good! I got the gyro plate which - as you can see from the photo - was a HUGE portion! So much food for a great value. Staff were also really friendly, and the food came out really quick. Definitely coming back here again, can’t recommend this place more.

We’ve ordered takeout twice from here now since moving into the neighborhood - it was SO good. Great portions, you will have left overs. I highly recommend the chicken souvlaki dinner, salmon, and spaghetti - my son loved it. The pita bread was so so good, so order extra!! can’t wait to dine in soon!

We've ordered from Zante several times and it never disappoints. The food is excellent and the portions are generous. I've never eaten in but I walk past Zante regularly and it looks really nice inside. Cozy and lovely decor.

Thank you for always providing us amazing food for take-out and delivery. Very high quality food. Portions are good and that's what keeps us coming back. EDIT: A year later, just want to say your food is still wonderful. We do take out and delivery from here quite often. Photo is of the chicken souvlaki dinner. Big nice pieces of chicken cooked perfectly.

I was pleasantly surprised to see that a Greek restaurant opened up in the Upper Beach neighborhood. We definitely could use a new restaurant in this particular location! The moment we walked in, we were greeted by our server, who was very attentive throughout the evening. The space was warm and welcoming. The menu was easy to read and the prices were extremely reasonable! We had the calamari as an appetizer and it was absolutely delicious. Our entrees were the hamburger and the lamb souvlaki. We couldn't believe how large the portions were and just how tasty everything was! It was immediately apparent that everything was fresh--especially the meat and seafood. After dinner, we had a pleasant conversation with the owner who is one of the nicest people I have ever met. We were even given a tiny basket of chocolate eggs to celebrate Easter. I can't say enough about just how wonderful my experience was at this new neighbourhood gem. I will be going back with friends and family!
