I liked the location, parking, overall service, and food. (It has its own parking spot within the building, and you can find the entrance on the Wilson Ave side.) The only thing I didn’t like was that the server, although nice, kept checking our table more than necessary, which became a bit disruptive. Even though the restaurant wasn’t very busy, I didn’t understand why the server kept coming to our table to ask if we were done or seemed surprised that we were still eating, especially when there were plenty of empty tables. other than that, everything was good.

Amazing food and great atmosphere! Some of the best Greek food you can have in town. Can’t go wrong with the chicken and prawn souvlaki

Food is great … always. I love the saganaki and chicken souvlaki dinner. Without fail, consistent. They will even make the saganaki gluten free on request.

Love it. Went there for the 1st time on a friend's recommendation. I think their price, food and quality are better than the one I usually go in New Westminster. A chicken skewer was marinated well and not dry at all. Moussaka was really good as well. I even ordered another dish for take out for my family.

What a bloody name. It sounds like a cross between a fabric store and a place where they serve you a plate of disappointment. But hey, we gave it a shot. Picture this – you walk in, and it’s like stepping into your grandma’s living room. The walls are semi plastered with photos of ancient island setting, and the lighting is dimmer than their chances of winning a Michelin star. The service is friendly, but it’s as if they’ve hired Hermes, the messenger god, to take your order. I asked for a menu, and before I could say “feta cheese,” they slapped it down like a Greek tragedy unfolding before my eyes. Blink, and your wine arrives. As for the food, they’ve thrown every Greek dish in the world on this menu. They got your moussaka, your stuffed grape leaves, your ribs, your pastas – it’s a bloody Greek potluck. But the pièce de résistance? The slow-roasted lamb. Apparently, it’s been “the toast of Metrotown” for years. Well, I’ll be the judge of that, the next time I go, I had the moussaka and I ordered it with the same trepidation as Odysseus entering the cave of the Cyclops. Here I am, questioning poor Ramie’s and yet secretly harboring a forbidden love for their moussaka. It’s like a tragic romance – doomed from the start, yet irresistible. Let’s rewind the tape, shall we? Imagine me fork in hand, staring down at that layered masterpiece. The eggplant, the meat, the bechamel – they all whispered sweet nothings to my taste buds. And that sauce! Oh, that heavenly bechamel sauce. It clung to my fork like a desperate lover, promising ecstasy with every bite. So yes, my friend, I confess: I loved the moussaka. It was as if Aphrodite herself had sprinkled it with forbidden passion I felt when I visited Naxos with my lover. Alas, the rest of the dish – the eggplant, the meat, and the bechamel sauce may it forever dance on our tongues, defying the gods themselves. In conclusion, the wine list could use some work but hey we will definitely be back.

We ordered lasagna, chicken souvlaki and Caesar salad. Everything was very average, chicken was dry. Only thing that tasted good was the salad and the vegetables. The potato was tasteless too. Very disappointed and will not be going back.

I ordered the lasagna that was described as having meat but it did not have any meat in it. The tomato sauce used in the lasagna also did not taste good and I could not finish the lasagna. Calamari was okay. The worst part was that the waitress tried to convince me there was meat.

We had a great time indulging in some yummy food.. we showed up around 7 and some of the people we dined with showed up a bit later due to their commute. It would ve been helpful if the waitress/hostess noticed that and gave us just a bit more time to discuss what to order. Sure we showed up earlier but it wouldn t be fair to start an order when the rest of the table just showed up. We got our pita bread and our food platter showed up shortly after. I d say it was about 8-8:30 ish and some of us were still munching slowly but the waitress seemed like she was desperate to clear our table. The amount of check ins made us felt rushed to ask for the bill and leave. There was no line up and the restaurant had operating hours until 10(?)..so we had ample time to sit and chitchat however we were not giving the chance to do so while digesting our meal. If there was a long line up, I would understand the sense of urgency to hurry along the dining time but when there s none, it felt crass. The food is great but the service is mediocre especially if I m expected to tip . Again.. with the tips, it shouldn t be a thing anymore. Tips are from the times of slavery in case history lessons have been forgotten.

Ramie s Greek Restaurant is a well-established restaurant on Kingsway that we ve visited on a number of occasions. Usually, we wind up ordering one of their special platters for take-out (really a good option if you re looking to try a bunch of different items). However, we came here for dine-in service in September for an impromptu date night. Instead of their platters, we just opted for their regular menu and ordered the Moussaka ($17.95) and Ouzo Mushroom Chicken ($18.95 + $3 to sub for lasagna and Caesar salad). Before our main dishes came out, they brought out some freshly made pita bread. Why does pita bread taste so good when it s fresh and then like cardboard 5 minutes later? The moussaka is always a favourite for us when we come here and made with eggplant, zucchini, and bechamel sauce. They also include rice, potato, veggies, and a greek salad to boot. I ve never had the ouzo mushroom chicken here before and I was surprised at the size of the lasagna that this came with. The chicken was quite tender and smothered by a nice sauce. On a subsequent visit, I decided to finally try their Greek Ribs. Being used to the more common bbq-style ribs, I found the Greek-style ribs here to be drier and not as fall-off-the-bone tender that I would have liked. Still, the ribs were fairly flavourful. If you re looking for Greek food in Burnaby, make sure you check out Ramie s.

This was my favorite greek restaurant. The food is good and service used to be okay. Recently went there again. Absolutely no service at all. The servers didnt come to our table to check anything except bring the food to our table. While there were only 2 tables, the 2 servers kept chatting, and I had to wave my hands 3 times, plus raise my voice at the 3rd time to ask them for my bill. Also one of the servers complained about customers tip amount in front of the 2 tables (one was us) while we were eating. Now I understand why the other customers put that tip amount.

Ordered lunch from Skip - Chicken Souvlaki - I asked for no rice/potato (which was actually written on the bag) but alas, rice and potato were included, thus the 3 star for service. The food was delicious! Chicken was plump and juicy and the salad, pita and tzatiki were super yummy. Even the vegetables, which are usually gross were delish. Portions were very large and one meal could feed 2 people for lunch. I will definitely order here again!

Food was pretty good. This review is for the terrible service. We waited nearly 20mins just for someone to come to our table. Water took SO long. Pita and calamari came, and the server said she will bring cutlery but they never came. Our water was never refilled. Asked for the bill and container and both never came again. The lady in the leopard top was by very rude.

Great food and alcoholic drinks overall. Lamb shoulder and racks are both very impressive. My go-to place for Greek food with a great cost to value ratio (I am not a big greek food guy though). Pita bread is complementary! Parking: Behind the restaurant has reserved spots for Ramies. Around 4 or 5.

First try, and it was not a good experience. We used to go to Minoas but unfortunately they closed. First impression, food did not look appetizing. We ordered two roast lamb platters, which were very dry and was bland as if the lamb wasnt marinated for long. Wife ordered a salad which was at best average and didnt seem to have much olive oil in it. Both were huge letdowns. Only one server on shift during the whole time, so guess what, she barely came to us to ask how we were doing. In retrospect, we should have probably told her the food was bad, but I doubt anything wouldve changed. When we asked for the bill, the server brought us the machine and she stood right behind us and stared the whole time. It was very uncomfortable and he standing behind gave us pressure when choosing the tip amount. And as usual, many restaurants set their default tip amount to start at 18%. Ironically they claim to be best in Burnaby... Hum, would be sad for Burnaby if it was true. Not going back ever.

Worst restaurant meal Ive had in years. I was embarrassed for recommending this restaurant. Have been going here for over 20 years and usually the food is very consistent. But this past Tuesday, the roast lamb was extremely dry like it was cooked days earlier, the rice pilaf was dry dry and tasteless and the potato was dry, tasteless and hard. Another tablemate was served a grossly overcooked sockeye fillet with the same terrible sides. And a third tablemates seafood souvlaki was also overcooked and dry. Maybe Tuesdays they serve leftovers. I gave my dry roast lamb to my sister to take home for her dog! The only saving grace if any was the warm pita. It was like someone in the kitchen was trying to sabotage the restaurant Wont be going back anytime soon. Time to find another go to Greek restaurant. FKT It was worse than having leftover Tuesday at home.

People can have bad day .. people who works in kitchen can mistak.. is that reason for bad words? If you ask me NO..

Ordered Ramies for the first time tonight off Uber eats and was very disappointed with the lack of flavour of everything. I am Greek myself and looove Greek food but the food we ordered was really lacking spices and flavour unfortunately. We got a seafood combo souvlaki and special prawn dinner and the prawns tasted good. All of our rice and vegetables had barely any seasoning, just looks like a little pepper and maybe salt. My salmon tasted fishy and not fresh. The prawn/scallops were decent. We also ordered calamari and it lacked flavour as well but also tasted rubbery (but that could also be from being in a takeout container for 40+ mins as we waited for delivery). A big positive though is that the portion are nice and big and quite filling and we got a generous amount of tzatziki and pita bread. Maybe we got unlucky this time because I read a lot of great reviews before choosing this place or maybe those people aren t used to eating much spice.

Food was good I had the roast lamb dinner I wish I had taken a photo of this dish but more or less it was your typical Greek style dinner with rice steamed vegetables, pita bread , lemon potatoe with tender roasted lamb best of all it wasnt over salty like other Greek restaurants. Service was top-notch and never had to flag our waitress down she was on tip of it . When out in Barnaby and if youre having a hard time picking out a place to dine this is a great place, I do recommend that you make a reservation.

Its becoming more and more difficult to eat out in this inflationary period and its tough not not ignore the value you are getting for the price you pay. I had a lamb souvlaki for dinner which came out to be $30 for a plate after taxes and tips. The lamb skewer is decently flavoured, albeit nothing out of ordinary. The rest of the plate is really just a small portion of Greek salad, rice and potato, the cost of which is negligible.

You can come and experience it. The meats are all grilled well, the chicken is a little bit spicy, the mutton is very fragrant, and the shrimps are very chewy. The only drawback is that there are not many customers, but we have to collect the plates before we are full, and they keep urging us. We paid the bill, but in the end we didn t even refill the water. There were several tables next to us who had been full for a long time.

It is a very simple joint, just some tables. However, even though the restaurant is not surprisingly fancy, the food quality is absolutely amazing. The portions are quite generous and although they can be a bit pricey, one can easily make two meals out of one (which comes down to roughly 16 per meal final price). I, however, like going there maybe once a month after a long day and very hungry because then I can finish the whole plate. The herbs and flavours are very fresh, the meat is very tender and their lamb is really juicy and flavourful. Ive tried several other Greek restaurant, most of them in Downtown Vancouver, and this one is just so much better. Recommended.

Came here with my parents and sister recently and ordered two roast lambs and one calamari dinner. Total came to about 100 bucks after tax and tip. Honestly, it was pretty good and a bit better than expected: roast lamb was tender, portions were generous, calamari was nice and light, each dinner plate was around $25, Greek salad and roast potato were fine, and the rice was decent. The seasonal veggies felt like an afterthought and were quite bland though. The two waitresses were accommodating, nice, responsive, and just overall excellent So all in all, despite the health inspection violations, I would consider coming back if I needed to be in the area and wanted Greek food

I recently found one of the original Ramies takeout menus . I believe it was from 2003. This restaurant has not only survived the pandemic, it has thrived for 20 years. Their fresh authentic meals are amazing. Unlike the majority of restaurants, Ramies has never sacrificed the quality of their ingredients for financial gain. I have much love for this restaurant and those who put their hard work and passion into each dish. If you re looking for fresh ingredients high quality, and true authenticity, then look no further.

Tasty and good portions

I have loved getting Greek food from Ramie s in the past. I used to get their Greek salad with a skewer which actually came with tzatziki sauce on the side. Then they started charging for it without announcing the change and getting upset that I was asking for it for free. In the restaurant, I always got it for free when it was a sit down meal. Then most recently, they forgot the pita bread and I requested a refund and so now have been blocked as a customer. I am concerned about this escalation without even speaking to me. I m not a vexatious customer by any means but this treatment was completely unnecessary. Needless to say, you have lost a customer moving forward. It s a shame that this couldn t be resolved amicably.

Ordered the ribs , came with Caesar salad lasagna and pita bread . Honestly not impressed. Giving a 1 star because it was still edible not tasty but I was hungry but didn t finish because the taste was too disappointing . I ordered online perhaps it s different from dining in however I m tired of paying good money for low quality food and is not a excuse on this restaurants behalf. Salad was ok, lasagna was bland and the ribs were the worse I ve ever eaten in my life . Looks like they over boiled them they were skinny with barely any meat on the bones what a complete joke and waste of money . If only I ordered at the restaurant I wouldn t of paid for this meal , it went straight into the garbage can after eating 1/4 of the portion of the meal . My advice to everyone who reads this don t order here online .

I came here back in December. Had the beef souvlaki and also got the appetizer platter to split with friends. I quite liked the appetizer platter, especially the calamari. Souvlaki dish wasnt bad either. I wasnt sure if 1 skewer of meat would be enough but I was full by the end. The one downside would be the vegetables. They tasted fairly plain, as though they were frozen ones you could buy at the store. Everything else was good, though, and service was friendly. Wouldnt mind coming back to try another dish.

Pros: -Complimentary pita bread -convenient location -decent decor and vibe Cons -Everything is overpriced -Taste is mid -Took 20+ min for food to arrive -practically 0 service beside taking your order. Our jar and glass were empty the whole meal. -Mandatory 18% tips just because group is greater than 7 tl;dr: There are plenty other Greek places with far better value and food, dont bother.

Great portions with affordable prices. The roasted lamb and calamari taste great. Was able to substitute rice from the calamari dinner to baked lasagna. Pita bread that came with the meal is also very tasty. Only managed to finish half of the food and got the rest packed to go. Would recommend at least trying once.

The roast lamb is very good, but nothing else was. Green beans with Greek food?! The potatoes were rubbery, the salad was bland, the tzatziki was watery (as was the avgolemono soup). The lamb souvlaki was tough. And not cheap. I dont know how it could honestly be rated #1 for Greek food in Burnaby according to their big sign out front...

Very, very slow. Pita, steak, and tzatziki were good. The rest was rather bland, especially for the price. It was odd hearing Latin American music instead of Mediterranean tunes. Didnt really set the atmosphere. The bill was hand-written and some of the numbers were completely illegible. I dont live in the area so wouldnt go back. The feta and jalapeño dip was a big let down. Parking: There is at least one spot of free parking at the back of the building.

I found this place through Google search based on hearing about Kingsway. I looked for a place that would be fun to eat at and reasonable price. It hit both of those things. When I showed up they were fast to greet me and get me seated. Wasnt overly busy at all. When I was struggling with what to eat, my waitress was so nice and helped tell me her favorites, which one of them was one I was looking at. After ordering food was out in front of me within 10-15 minutes or less. I had the Ouzo Mushroom Chicken and it was amazing! My waitress checked on me a few times while I dined. As my waitress brought my check and I paid, she hoped I would be back soon, and I let her know I was from the USA and I said I hoped to come back the next time I was in town. I overall would recommend this place for amazing authentic Greek food!

This place has a sign outside saying voted #1 in Burnaby. This couldn t be farther from the truth. First off not kid friendly but that won t be a part of the score just a warning. We ordered staganaki, really good. The main dishes were ok. My wife ordered pasta as her side and it came with no sauce, just plain. The waitress gave like a snarky do u want sauce and I was like what. The meal was also supposed to come with more stuff and she goes well if u sub for pasta you only get pasta. This was not explained to us. For the chicken it definitely lacked flavour and taste. Was not happy. The tip reflected the service and food. If she was nice enough to explain it would have been a smoother transaction. Definitely not number one. Oh and if u want quick service def not the place to go took 25 for apples and another 20-30 for mains. Also wait was was not really engaged till the end when she knew we were not happy and it was going to reflect the tip. She at the end started talking. Only offered is water once and then when I asked for the bill.

I was greeted by a nod, no hello or hi. The women who greeted me seemed to be annoyed by my visit and pretended to be extremely busy despite the eatery was 1/4 full. She pointed out to table, where should I seat and threw the menues on the table. The table was dirty with crumbles, I asked to wipe. She did a favor and wiped but was so angry with my ask. Id waited for 7 minutes and nobody came to me. I just left this eatery (not a restaurant). If you wanna spoil your lunch and mood, just come to this wonderful place.

HORRIBLE SERVICE !! I took my wife and our eight year old son, and had to listen to the two waitresses standing behind the bar, both eating dinner, while on shift, discussing child birth. The older brunette was telling the younger brunette, with a ponytail, all about being a mother. This was beyond unprofessional and very off putting in a place where they serve food. Anyone with half a brain also knows you NEVER eat on the floor in front of customers. Apparently they arent concerned how their inappropriate behavior reflects on the establishment, let alone a disgusting topic for a conversation, held in front of customers, trying to enjoy a meal and a nice night out. It got worse when we were finished our meal I had to yell EXCUSE ME three times to our waitress, who was once again behind the bar with the older girl, this time huddled around a cell phone watching a video and laughing. The Lasagna could have easily been a premade frozen Lasagna, completely tasteless, like it was made with premade spaghetti sauce, and my wifes Lamb Souvlaki was completely overcooked and dried out. Hands down, WORST dinner out all year.
