Minoas Greek Taverna - Burnaby, British Columbia

Hidden gem! 宝藏希腊餐馆啊大家！ I was stunned by the interior design. I walked by many times yet didn’t realize this place is a restaurant. Owner is friendly. They gave me homemade cookies while I waiting for pickup. Told me story about this restaurant (check the framed photos), the house is about 100 ... years old, restaurant is about 40 years old! Wow. Such a vintage place. Could be excellent for dating. I ordered Mousaka. Looks like lasagna. I love it!!! Read more

This cute little Greek shop tucked in Burnaby near Metrotown. It's run by a Greek family who's been running this place for a long time. The service is fast and friendly. I see lots of regulars. The restaurant is on the second floor We had the seafood platter, the meat platter and ... the appetizer platter as well as the lamb plate. The food was not bad, the portions are pretty decent. The rice was well cooked and nicely flavoured. The lamb was fall off the bone tender. The platters are a good idea if you want to sample everything Overall I would recommend it if you are looking for someplace to enjoy the view of Burnaby Park while eating some Greek food. Tip: they have a parking lot in the back Read more

This is a place with a long history and a lot of stories. My wife and I used to come here when we were dating twenty years ago. It took us a good twenty years to bring our son to come back to this iconic restaurant. Still as good as ... it was back then. Hope they keep going for another twenty years! All the best! Read more

Delicious roast lamb, but everything else was a disappointment. Bland salad without even a single olive. Lacklustre sides. Slow, apathetic service. I don't think we'll be back, but I must compliment the chef on our roast lamb. Tender and juicy with a beautifully seared, crisp and delicious crust. Just a shame about ... everything else.

The lovely interiors and ambience took us by surprise, given its rather off-beat location. The place is huge, and very well decorated, so much so that it almost transports you to Greece for a moment. The staff is very friendly and quality of food is top-notch. The only thing I ... was a bit disappointed with was the portion sizes. I am used to seeing plates overflowing with food at Greek restaurants. But overall, this is a must visit just for the experience of dining in that setting. Read more
