A small Greek kitchen on Bank Street

The Greek Souvlaki Shack opened in December 2010 at 258 Bank Street, at the corner of Cooper Street in Centretown: a small, unassuming room with a neighbourhood feel.

The menu keeps to the classics: souvlaki platters with rice, lemon roast potatoes, Greek salad and tzatziki; pitas; phyllo pies; grilled octopus and calamari; and traditional desserts like bougatsa and loukoumades. Eat in, take out, or ask about catering trays.

Gluten-free pitas? Just ask.
