Opening their first location in the spring of 1984, Helen Babalos & Thomas Makris brought us Anatoli Souvlaki. They had a dream of combining the food of Greece with great service to add some Mediterranean style to the North Vancouver restaurant selection. They opened in the sleepy neighbourhood of lower Lonsdale and lived above the restaurant to ensure the quality and service. They were able to create a North Vancouver staple, a successful thriving restaurant based on faithful patrons and a reputation that has been passed through generations.In 2011, the family-run restaurant was taken over by their sons Alexi and Iani. In 2015, the brothers, alongside their cousin Daniel Bergman, expanded on their parent’s dream by opening The Greek in Yaletown, with a focus on mezze-style dining. Now open in Gastown. The Greek is a reinterpretation of the North Shore's iconic Anatoli Souvlaki.

Such an excellent experience! The service was great and Anthony went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. The food was so delicious, that it was hard to pick a highlight. The carpaccio was so perfectly seasoned and the flourless banana cake was just exceptional. The portions were generous and the value was definitely there. Would highly recommend.

On one of the busiest nights we popped in last minute. Had a 1/2 hr wait and we were so impressed by the service as we watched the Incredible staff navigated to accommodate all the reservations. All while keeping the high standard of food and presentation. Ryan our server was fantastic. With smiles all around I commend the team for their professionalism. Cheers.
