Although we've been several times, before (with a similar experience), today, I want to submit a review to thank the management and all staff for the delightful experience provided this morning! How wonderful to meet the owner--and great to see people back, enjoying food & fellowship, especially after the past 2 years. We recognize what businesses have endured and we are grateful for the hospitality---here! Customers: choose 'here!' Your day will be more blessed because of it--and if able, maybe work here?' To be able to learn from THIS 'staff family' of servers?! They clearly honour and enjoy what they do, even though tireless work! We will highly recommend this to our daughter-- for this reason! What an example this staff sets for our world!!

On November 8 2025, our party of four -- celebrating my lawyer brother's 68th birthday -- had what…read moreshould have been a pleasant evening at SOLE Restaurant in Waterloo. It turned into an embarrassing and disappointing experience. I am a retired Air Force Captain, a veteran of the Gulf War, and that evening I was joined by my brother and our spouses, we all choose to drink red wine. After enjoying dinner and ordering our second bottle of wine, a female manager approached our table to ask how we were getting home. I explained that my wife and I were staying at the Delta Hotel across the street and walked here and were walking back, while my brother mentioned that his daughter would be picking them up. Later, when we ordered a fourth bottle of wine to enjoy with dessert, the same manager returned and refused to serve us, claiming that it would amount to "one bottle per person" and could "put us over the limit." In all my 64 years, I have never been refused service ever -- especially while being responsible, polite, and transparent about our arrangements. Feeling insulted and unwelcome, we decided to take our business to the Delta Hotel, where we were treated with courtesy and common sense. Needless to say, SOLE will never see my face again, and I will make sure others are aware of how this restaurant treats paying, respectful customers celebrating a special occasion. Sincerely, Capt. (Ret'd) Martin Mattes Canadian Air Force Veteran

Very solid restaurant with great food! Place is classy but cozy. We ordered the seasonal soup which…read morewas a hearty beef and vegetable orzo soup, pear & blue pizza, and the roasted squash & duck fiorelli. Soup was perfect for the cold weather, and enough for two of us to share. Pizza had good chew to the crust and the combination of blue cheese and pears and honey was delicious. A little greasy. Pasta was delicious and cooked perfectly, the duck confit was so tender and flavourful, squash was also perfectly tender. They were also nice enough to bring a little birthday dessert for us! Only thing I'll say is that this might be the only restaurant I've felt like I'm doing something wrong... not that the servers were mean but the vibes are just something I've never felt before. Total bill for us before tax & tip was $67. Great pricing for great food. Highly recommend!

The best Greek food in town!…read more The restaurant has parking up a steep ramp or on the lower level, same level as the street. The restaurant has either a building with elevator access or down the stairs around the corner, so lots of accessibility. The people at this restaurant are amazing. They definitely go above and beyond to make your experience wonderful. The restaurant has a section for private dining and a larger casual area. It's clean, it's spacious and nothing but tip top service. We had catering from them for approx 1000 people and they did not disappoint. Djole and his team worked hard to get the food prepped and delivered on time and more importantly - hot and delicious. They listened to what our needs were and adjusted accordingly with their expertise. Chicken souvlaki - 10/10 super juicy and grilled beautifully Moussaka (vegetarian) 100/10- the vegetables were layered and cooked to perfection. The creamy mix of potatoes on top add a lovely depth to the dish. Spanikopita bites 10/10 - on point and delicious Rice - flavorful Potatoes - super yummy Overall, nothing but great things to say about this team. Love them!

The cheese did some heavy lifting to earn an overall food rating of 3.5 / 10. Truly, truly bad. Great service, borderline awkward contrast. Relaxed (empty) atmosphere, go figure...

Very punctual and efficient with always a side of humour the whole family makes the experience of coming to this OPA location quite enjoyable The wife and I go nuts for this place but especially for their homemade sauce are amazing Last time i was there I had the gyro plate and it was too die for. Very juicy and tender the meat and wrap were an amazing combo of flavour and desire are all the same time I kept trying to pull this massive hunk of meat out of my mouth as I was getting full, but kept slamming home the gyro until there was nothing left but a small smear of sauce on my cheek Extremely satisfied every time I leave this establishment i will be a returning customer Ciao

tl;dr Best shawarma I've ever had. Awesome food and excellent value! Try it!…read more We walked into this place after reading Yelp reviews and were very impressed with our lunch! Decor is unremarkable, but who cares for take out? What we wanted was somewhat healthy, excellent food and that's what we got. We ordered a gyro plate and chicken shawarma salad. All the salad ingredients were freshly prepped and good quality. The sauces (tzatziki, hummus, Greek salad dressing, and hot sauce) seemed home-made and were some of the best I've had (and I've eaten a lot of shawarma). The shawarma and gyro were perfectly spiced and heated on the grill to order so they were piping hot. I honestly could not have asked for anything better! Add to that the man who took our order (I'm guessing the owner?) was lovely and gave us excellent service.
