This newly opened authentic Greek restaurant and plans to offer menu items with the textures and…read moreflavours you find in Greece and its Islands themselves. The decor is spot on Mediterranean, with their white washed wood wall, blue and sand coloured cushioned chairs, and light wood finished table tops. Their logo matches the theme of Greek history and lore too; based on the legend of Minos. I'll need to do further study on that before divulging any secrets of Zeus' family tree. With an experienced Chef, Montreal food influencer Niko Atsaidis, other dedicated management and enthusiastic staff, I have high hopes for this pristinely new spot. I mean it - their washrooms are super clean too and that's rarely the case at any restaurant. The kitchen is open and also spotlessly clean. Moreover, the ventilation is fabulous and pumps out great air flow. From how hard they've been working pre-opening, this should be an exciting addition to the quick-serve food scene in Montreal and maker of happy stomachs. The light Greek music was also a nice touch adding to the welcoming group of owners and staff behind the main counter. Now surely I was hungry from a long day, but I must say their poutine had a great scent and was truly devourable. I was still full from it and the side of hefty and peppery Loukaniko sausage, until late into the evening. They also have proper and perfectly marinated and seasoned souvlaki and gyro which are their staple dishes as their name makes clear. Their tzatziki is thicker than most (more traditional I believe) and filled with lots of tasty green bits of veggies, and happily not the ruin-your-breath-for-days garlicy or repeat-on-you-for-hours type. Their banner-style chalkboard menu is very well drawn out and focused. What they do, they want to do right, and I respect that greatly. Too many restaurants have super lengthy menus - and they can't do everything well, no matter how hard they try. Minos wants to concentrate on things they can create in-house and source with high quality. Their Greek imported olive oil is a big time standout and according to the 'chalk talk' note on the board - beer and wine are on their way. Rumour has it they will be Greek imports - so bravo on that upcoming addition. I look forward to trying other items, especially the veggie ones and honey drizzled dessert. Good luck Minos - show 'em how it's done! PS I will mention the fries are not hand cut and the cheese curds are not the squeakiest - at least at the time of opening and not five stars, but the brown sauce, Loukaniko, olive oil, decor and service are all worthy of the five, I will leave it as such.

Let me first state just how happy I am Kojax finally re-opened in Laval and to be honest it's…read morebetter than ever! It used to be the standard fast food fare you'd typically find at any food court but this resto pulled out all the stops to change what they are all about. First of all this place is gorgeous! The quality of the decor and the look of the establishment was a really nice surprise. Furthermore it's no longer a counter you order from and wait for the food to be prepared. Now they give you a number which you place on your table and the staff bring your food to you when it is ready. This was honestly great as I'd much prefer not have to stand up and wait when there's a rush of patrons waiting on their food. I can go sit down and keep myself busy. They even have nice TVs and this awesome pop machine with at least 20+ soda options and among them the elusive vanilla coke that makes me so happy to occasionally enjoy. This was totally awesome!!! I ordered the old fashioned gyro with their house fries with a side sweet sauce... the food was so good!! Some people may think poorly of fast food Greek food but I don't care.... this food is awesome and the value given for about $10 I paid is very high. All in all this place deserves 5 stars but alas I'll only give them 3. When I visited this place for the first time with 2 of my coworkers, the ordering process was a bit difficult. It was pretty clear the cashier was new to the job and having a hard time handling the orders. Kindly note this place opened a few mere days earlier so we were more than understanding of the situation. But that's not why I dropped 2 stars. The reason why I'm notching 2 stars down is how poorly the manager treated her while in front of clients (specifically us). I fully acknowledge some people simply don't work out at a job but it's quite unacceptable to tell them "if you cannot work better you can go home right now" with a nasty tone right in smack of a client paying for an order. The look on the teenage girls face was a mix of shock, anger and fear that made her look like she was about to break down in tears until I left. My coworker confronted to manager on a 1 on 1 after we ate and the manager seemed shock that we weren't happy about how he treated her for us and ultimately and savagely responded it won't be a problem in the future since "she's being let go". Firstly that was not our intention to see someone fired and secondly not what we needed to know. Are you that awful? So in conclusion one of my coworker stated she refuses to come back to this place ever again, another will come back maybe in time (apprehensively) and I find myself conflicted between being a regular patron or following their stand against this place. Either way I decide it doesn't matter....it won't change the very poor staff management. I understand it's new and you want everything to be perfect for your Greek slice of paradise but you left a long loooong impression on us which in turn provided you with your first business review with your shortcomings being the major subject. Opa. Since this review was put up i have come back a few times and received feedback from kojax corporate which is appreciated. This being said, I haven't seen the employee since. Food is good and affordable so I'll occasionally be back.

The poutines here are actually really good if you ask for the fries crispy. They don't drown it in gravy, which I appreciate. Ordering in person is usually better, but even on Uber Eats I've noticed it's not the driver's fault when things are off -- it's the way the store preps it. Their house salad is solid, love the super thin onions. For the pita, I always ask for a little salt and pepper on the tomatoes since they're otherwise bland. And the Kojak sauce? Definitely go for a mix of both if you can -- it makes the pita way better.

This is an exceptional restaurant with the best Greek cuisine. I was brought here by my friends…read morewho live in Montreal, and I knew they would take me to the best. This really was. When you walk up, there is a pergola area with seating area in front of the restaurant, but, once inside, there are several elegant indoor dining rooms as well as a large garden patio in the back which is partly covered. The garden area is where we chose to dine, and it was beautiful with lots of plants and flowers to provide a pleasant ambience. Some people were dressed up and others came casual. This is one of the few restaurants where you can bring your own wine. I had never heard of that. They do offer a variety of drinks, water and coffee, etc. The menu has everything from steak, chicken, seafood and vegetarian, along with desserts. We were there for lunch, and ordered the lunch special which includes a soup or salad as a starter, the main course, plus a selection of desserts. I went twice to this restaurant. The first time I ordered the chicken kebab and shrimp. The second time I ordered a steak. Both times the food was absolutely delicious. The lentil soup was wonderful. The salads were very fresh and delightful. The desserts... One day I had vanilla ice cream with "sour cherries", and the second time I had baklava... Both were amazing! The service was impeccable, friendly, and prompt. All the staff and our servers were great to work with, and fully bilingual. That was a plus for me as I've had difficulty with French even though I am fluent in Spanish and know enough Portuguese to get along in Brazil. I wish we had one of these restaurants back home in S. Texas! I fully enjoyed the restaurant in every way and believe you will too. I will certainly go back when I return to Montreal.

No shade to older people, but we were with our 18 and 20 year old kids and the vibe was kinda vanilla. We were pretty hungry so decided to give it a go. Firstly, we are from Ontario and are not fluent in French. We will make the effort to do our best but usually the servers will just speak English, which we appreciate! Our server this day was just not the friendliest. She seemed annoyed with us from the get go. Whether it was our subpar attempt at speaking French or not, who knows. Definitely couldn't have been a reflection of our attitudes as we always go out of our way to be super respectful of people in the service industry as we have all worked in it in some capacity. The place was not very busy so it's not like she was slammed with orders. She took our order and then disappeared for 45 minutes lol. People were being served all around us but it seemed as though we had been forgotten. Our order was not complicated (2 Greek salads, and two chicken skewer plates). When our meal finally arrived, I was honestly shocked. The "village Greek salad" or however they called it was just tasteless. Huge pieces of pepper, huge pieces of tomato, some cucumber, minuscule feta and a few olives tossed in for good measure and the most pathetic gathering of lettuce underneath it all. Barely any oil, zero vinegar. It was just laughable. Server was nowhere to be seen so I couldn't ask for some extra oil and vinegar. Not once did she come by to see how we were doing or ask if we needed anything. Just couldn't be bothered, I guess. The chicken skewer platters were tasty enough but definitely nothing to write home about. We won't be returning on future visits to Montreal. The outside patio is cute but that was the only positive about our experience. Even trying to pay was a huge hassle as the server had seemingly disappeared and we waited for almost ten minutes until she showed her face. When she printed the bill, made an "are you stupid?" face as she was standing a bit further away from me and basically called me over like I was a dog. We still tipped her (15% instead of our usual of 22%) (my kids are extremely unhappy that I tipped at all) but we will never recommend this place to friends or family coming in from out of town. We visit Montreal quite a lot and frequent a lot of places but this is one that you can absolutely skip.

You won't be going here to enjoy the decor. We were lucky enough to be seated immediately. It did require us to ask waiters for the menu and wave 1 by in order to get our order. It took approx 30-45 minutes before the food arrived at our table. Once the food arrived, the presentation was nice. But most importantly the food was more than I expected. I ordered the grilled chicken. It comes with salad and a side of fries. Grilled in a charcoal grill, very evenly. A lot of flavor without any excessive use of salt. My wife had the mixed seafood platter and was most impressed by the calmari. Piece of advice for those who would want to try this place. Make a reservation.
