| - I've been to Marvin's before & of what I remember this used to be one of the best Greek food places. Located in an residential area but very popular with Montrealers. After so many years, I went back on a Tuesday night thinking it would be less crowded, like I remebered it the small diner was full with much noise with the same decor, nothing has been really updated. I sit with my guests waiting for the waiter to come take our orders & trying to understand what one of my guest was asking me . After 10 minutes, the waiter comes with a basket of 3 breads asking if we wanted to drink something, we wanted a brand of Canadian beer but he recommended a Greek one which we excepted since he didn't have what we wanted. We also asked for water which he brought right away, spilling half of it on me. Another 10 minutes passes before he comes to get our orders. Out of the three orders, only one was available (hope so) since it was a porc souvlaki brochette. The other two dishes ( Lamb Gyros & Beef brochette) were not available. It seems they ran out!!!! Finally we get our meals, to my dissapointment, the souvlaki porc meat was hard, the lamb skewer was extremely salty. The service was not great & the waiter not very efficient ( I guess he was tired of running around & being busy that night ;( . I will definitely not go back to that place , it kind of killed the opinion & experience I had prvious to my visit. It is too bad to see such deterioration in service & taste.
