Mamakas Taverna - Toronto, Ontario

For a restaurant this price, you’d expect a better service and a more generous portion of food. Just look at the size of the fork compared to the $38 octopus. That one souvlaki was $44. The meat was quite dry as well. The server was unenthusiastic to say the least. ... The whole time her expression was stiff and no smile, acting like she wanted us to leave as quickly as possible. She didn’t even acknowledge us when she cleaned the table and took away the plates. Of course, 18% tips minimum at the checkout. Her attitude definitely didn’t deserve that much on top of an already overwhelming bill. Please go to another restaurant if you don’t want your night to be ruined. They would treat you horribly.

I was skeptical as I’m not a Greek food lover…. Then I ate here! The squid 🦑 was cooked to perfection. Every dish we had I couldn’t stop enjoying it. Very flavourful and delicious.

FOOD: • Grilled Calamari: surprisingly good. Juicy, crunchy and good seasoning flavor. The calamari is big and fresh. • Lamb Shashouka: I can barely find lamb in it but overall it taste good. • Kopanisti Dip: It's not spicy like I thought, portion is really big and I got full after this. Bread ... is fresh and hot. SERVICE: they're too busy but they did a great job. Food came out fairly quick. VIBE: bright and chill, the place is very busy at lunch time. Read more

Food overall is good, a little bit salty to our liking. Moussaka is a must-try. Wont recommend the raw beef salad. Ambience is great. We were quite lucky to walk-in on a Saturday night

Excellent Greek restaurant that reminds me of my travel. The meal started with house dips and meatball. The bread was so light and goes extremely well with the anchovies yogurt dip. The lamb chop was cooked very well, and the sea bass is fresh and grilled perfectly. Definitely end the ... meals with some yogurt desert! I recall mythos is a terrible beer in Greece, but I somehow liked it fine here in Toronto 😅 Read more
