Best Greek restaurant in Markham!…read more If you're craving authentic Greek food, I highly recommend Main St Greek. I come here often and plan to continuing dining here for yummy Greek food. Food: Classic Greek Salad (5/5) - fresh, tasty salad that's great to share. I love Greek salad in general and this hits the spot Saganaki (5/5) - flaming cheese! I don't love cheese too much but saganaki I'll eat for sure. Savoury cheese topped with a squeeze of lemon and pairs well with the complimentary garlic bread. Calamari (5/5) - Nice, large slices of fried calamari with a side of tzatziki. I can eat this for days! Pork souvlaki stick (5/5) - Well-seasoned pieces of pork on a stick and grilled to perfection! Comes with a side of tzatziki and tastes great! Service: - our server was very friendly and the staff too - food came out relatively quick - free underground parking btw *they also sell a small tub of their Greek salad dressing to take home

Oh my, this place is awesome. I saw the reviews and it was…read morea must try. We ordered the saganaki, the avgolemono soup, chicken souvlaki dinner, and a pork gyros dinner. The soup was amazing, you could tell it was homemade as the chicken had bones. It was beyond fresh. The saganaki came next, it was disappointing that the server couldn't get the flame going but all is good anyways. Then came the Greek salad that come with both dinners, as you can see the dressing was abundant and it was flavourful. Onto the Chicken souvlaki dinner and pork gyros dinner. You could tell this was made authentically Greek as they were delectable. The quality and taste was through the roof. This is a must try for any Greek food lovers and I HIGHLY recommend. I will be back even if it is a 30 minute drive. It's worth the drive and the time.

I've always known this Greek restaurant was in the plaza but never dined in until now - wow I have been missing out! Upon arrival, the space is quite dated but I still had high hopes for the food which did not disappoint. Servers were all older gentlemen that seemed intimidating but were very friendly and attentive. Everything we ordered was so delicious: Kalamarakia Fried 5/5 - Seasoned and lightly fried calamari served with Tzatziki sauce. It wasn't too crispy but had the perfect chew/ bite to it. Great for sharing. Cold Pekelia 5/5 - This was served with 4 different dips and 2 light bites including Tzatziki, taramosalata, octopus, melitzanosalata, olives and hummus. Absolutely delicious and a range of different flavours to try. Served with pita on the side. Chicken Souvlaki Dinner 5/5 - Tender chunks of chicken breast, marinated and broiled to perfection. All their dinners come with a Greek salad and garlic bread. Portions are plenty per person. Chicken was tender, juicy and bursting with flavours. Gyro Dinner 5/5 - Blend of lamb and beef, lightly spiced and broiled. Served with rice, roast potatoes, veggies and Tzatziki. So delicious I wanted to lick the plate clean. Overall all the food was so good and flavourful. Drinks were okay, I got a caesar that could have used a bit more "ump" to it. I can't wait to come back again as I loved dining here!

They give you some garlic bread while you wait which is a wonderful touch. I will definitely be coming back whenever I'm in the mood for Greek food, I'm glad I found my new spot!

During one of the few times I've dined in, I decided that this place definitely deserved a review if it causes more people to give them their business by dining here! The staff at this restaurant are very friendly and personable. I never feel like I'm bothering them when I ask them questions about the menu, or what might be in a dish. Additionally, they're very prompt with refilling water for you if your table orders glasses of water as well, indicating that they're extremely diligent. [Taramosalata] $7.00 - red fish roe blended with garlic, lemon juice, and extra virgin olive oil! Comes with grilled pita ~ This is extremely savory but in the best ways. I love getting this as a spread for a sandwich when I have leftovers. Do take note though, that this is a dish that has an extremely fishy flavor so be warned! I highly recommend you get it to share with others in the event that it's not your cup of tea, but for me, I'll happily devour this any day of the week. [Chicken Souvlaki on a Bun] $8.50 - chicken souvlaki pieces on a bun! Comes with tomatoes, and red onions so if you don't like either of those, ensure you ask them to omit it. It also comes with tzaziki on the bun as well. I love how flavorful the souvlaki is but sometimes, if I have leftover taramosalata, I will slather some of it onto the bun for an extra punch of flavor! HIGHLY RECOMMEND IF YOU LIKE GREEK FOOD :D

Very solid place that one probably had a similar experience if they went there 20 years ago…read more I had the moussaka and it was just what I wanted. The rice was actually a lot better than I expected. I know it's just a side, but rice at times from other Greek places isn't that great, and this was much better. My wife had the mix grill plate, and I helped. She absolutely loved the lamb. It was largely over the quality and the prep was fairly standard, but there's nothing wrong with that. The other parts didn't jump out, but were still perfectly good. The service was very attentive.

Having had moussaka ($33.95) at more chain-like Greek restaurants, Pantheon's version is lighter…read moreand fresher tasting. The potato layer feels fluffy and sandwiches thinly sliced eggplant, so the aubergine is rather pronounced. The ground beef mixture wasn't overly spiced and even the bechamel sauce was a thin layer, so it toasts the top but doesn't saturate the slice. Ultimately, it's not heavy so you could get through a full portion. A flaming saganaki ($19.95), the pan fried kefalotiri cheese, is a staple in Canadian Greek restaurants. It seems touristy to order but there's something endearing about setting a piece of cheese on fire and yelling "opa"! For me, the dish is more for the atmosphere than taste. Pantheon pan fries the cheese well, so it develops a crust even prior to flambeeing and serves it as a thick gooey slice. If only the accompanying bread wasn't so dry and mealy, a good saganaki calls for a better complement. Almost all their mains arrive with a sizeable Greek side salad that's smartly served first containing ample amounts of crumbled feta and some tomato, cucumbers, and onion over romaine. Their dressing is different, tamer and while still acidic there's a sweetness to it. Not sure, but perhaps they use a red wine vinegar and then blend the ingredients together so it's better combined? With the fishkebob souvlaki ($36.95) I was expecting fish, but it's really a seafood kebob containing shrimp, calamari and mushroom. It's cooked well with a faint grilled aroma, very tender, and lightly salted. Sadly, my steamed vegetables were merely carrots and didn't have the delicious garlicky green beans included on my friends' plates. Luckily, there was plenty with the moussaka so I could augment mine. At least there was an ample portion of roasted lemon potatoes that were soft and fluffy with a refreshing pronounced citrus finish. Pantheon doesn't skimp on the lamb chops that arrive with the entrée. And if you can't decide on what protein you'd like, their menu also offers some as add-ons. The lamb chop by the piece ($11.95) was bit gamier than I'd like but was cooked to a perfect medium doneness. A complimentary honey cake arrives for the table and is almost like having baklava in cake form. Just watch out, as the moist crumbly cake is difficult to pick up with a fork. Don't waste a bit of this delicious dessert, just use your fingers.

Moved out of Toronto years ago so stopped going. Last night was in Richmond hill and saw this location and went in. Well the service was ok friendly but not attentive. Anytime we needed something we had to wave someone down. Pricing for a small pork plate was $26. A little high. Now they stopped serving bread decades ago at the original location and that is still in place. The salad was generous HOWEVER the feta was somehow processed into uniform sized tiny ball type portions. Very weird and why. Feta is a crumbled cheese. I chose fresh vegetables and roast potatoes with the pork. Small serving of green beans and orange peppers. Good serving of roast potatoes, however they were undercooked. The star of the show, the pork, was cooked perfectly. Portion was small. And yes I order the small one. But based on the price I was expecting more. Only about 8 people at 6 pm. All of us were occupying tables around the large gas fireplace as the restaurant was cold. I would have given a two but as the pork was perfectly cooked I gave it a three. Not the Astoria I remembered from my past. Ps the tzatziki was still good.

I had the pork souvlaki on a bun. Adding a drink after, it was really good for a $20 dinner. The portions are large, though the bun is less filling than the souvlaki dinner options, which are way more filling. If this was a full dinner meal I'd probably go with the dinner, Service here is over the counter. I'm pretty satisfied with what I had, and would recommend this place for those who like cheap, fill you up food.
