Hands down the best Greek place in the city. Huge portions & super high quality & very delicious. I love how they gave me a full tray of salad with their signature plate. Hard to find a place that still serves portions like this for $20View more
Discovered this place last night. Wow! For a critical eater with high standards (chef at home!) this place nails it! Food was very tasty - I had grilled calamari & the baklava afterwards was the best I've ever had, even the coffee was delicious! Service was prompt, friendly & attentive. This will be a new fave place!View more

The Greek Souvlaki Shack offers a delightful dining experience with its family-run charm. The Mediterranean paintings create a great atmosphere, & the consistently clean space is always bustling with satisfied customers. The attentive owner or server enhanced our visit, ensuring a welcoming feel. The generous portions of delicious skewers, accompanied by fresh salad, made for a memorable Mediterranean culinary experience. Highly recommended for those seeking authentic flavors in town.View more
**UPDATE November 2023. Still super good & OMG,a mountain of food for a really good price ** Extremely delicious dishes, good portions, everything is super tasty & lots of choices. Service is always friendly & smiling. Most of the menu can be made gluten-free, & they are really careful with cross contamination. I've been there twice, & my coeliac wife never had any reaction.View more

I have been there many times, mostly for take out, however, my visit the other day was different. Got to speak with the main guy behind the counter, who I've never seen during my previous visits & he was a delight. Provided great service (in the language of your choice) & was in a great mood for it being a busy night. I ordered the lamb souvlaki platter, as per usual & as per usual it was great. I mean who doesn't love lamb? Also, they have these chocolate chips cookies that were really delicious & soft. Still doesn't beat their baklavas, but they were close.View more
This is, by far, the best Greek food in the city. Consistently so.View more
Wonderful food & even more wonderful staff. Our server Miles went the extra mile to make sure our two families with kids were well served & attended to. He handled each client with warmth & respect. We loved the lamb & the kids ate their veggies!View more
This place really know Gluten Free (The owner's daughter has Celiac so most things on the menu are GF & they know all about cross contamination, etc). The service is out of this world, with extremely friendly & knowledgeable staff. I can't recommend this place enough!View more
In my opinion, the Green Souvlaki Shack is without a doubt the best Greek restaurant in Ottawa. I crave it every time I'm downtown or in Centretown. I highly recommend the souvlaki signature plates, which come with some of the tastiest roasted potatoes you will ever eat. Their homemade chocolate chip cookies are also incredible.View more
The grilled veggie pita is amazing!! Super vegetarian friendly place with superb service. Pro tip: order the honey balls for dessert!They're like timbits but *cough cough* better.View more
Miles' service was excellent. He can even guess what I'm thinking even if I don't ask. The food is fresh & I recommend calamari rings.View more
