What an amazing place to eat!! It was our first time here, and we came on a Saturday night. Booked a reservation and got in right away at our time. The place was packed with many takeout orders going out, and still our service was amazing and we got our food quickly and accurately. I’m GF and had no issues.
If you are in the Lloydminster area I would highly recommend this establishment! The food is amazing! I have been here several times and it never disappoints. I highly recommend the Maria’s Special and the stuffed mushrooms. You also cannot go wrong with any of the pizzas! The service is as great as the food. Last time I was in for pickup I had my newborn in the car seat. I would have had to make several trips to the vehicle but the hostess helped me right out to my truck. This kindness was so appreciated, especially for a new mom! Thanks again!
Probably one of the best Greek dishes I’ve had! We had a pitcher of white sangria and I enjoyed this Greek salad. The portions were generous and the patio was beautiful.
We had a fantastic family dinner at Spiros in Lloydminster recently. Everything was excellent! We all ordered the prime rib special and were blown away. The portions were huge, the meat was cooked perfectly, and the flavor was incredible. For dessert, we shared some of their homemade pies, and they did not disappoint! Absolutely delicious. On top of the amazing food, the prices were very reasonable. Spiros offers a great value and a wonderful dining experience. We'll definitely be back!
The restaurant is the real deal. The lemon Chicken soup was different but very tasty for the cold weather. The waiter recommended the Souvlaki plate that secret sauce is soooooo good a must try on any meal. The ekmek dessert sooo good. The experience was great, service was great the food was delicious. Will be back.
Fabulous food Waitress are very nice The only reason for the 4 starts is the shrimp appetizer , in the meny they are jumpo shrimps but in reality they are not , you are getting 8 med/small size shrimps for $16 that's all The rest of the menu is amazing and I hope they won't rise their prices. The best prime Rib I ever had in Alberta 👌
First time eating here and do not disappoint us. Great food, awesome service and beautiful restaurant. Sat by the fire place. We had the escargot and the Greek Platter. A little of everything and delicious. Highly recommend eating here
Was pretty good. We had a good mix of appetizers for our group. We had the Calamari (crispy and tasty), escargots (ok, mushrooms over powered the flavours but good), Greek Chicken Wings (crispy, with a really really good greek sauce), a focaccia with oil and vinegar and a brie and berry with pita. All the appetizers were fantastic. For mains, the majority of the group had Maria's Favorite, two others had steaks. The steaks cooked to the individuals likings. Maria's favorite was tasty and very filling. For dessert, a few had the Baklava and apple pie for dessert. These were devoured quickly and very tasted very good. Service was good and the patio was really nice.
Great food good service
Fish and chips were amazing
Great food, amazing service
Amazing restaurant. So many GF options and there was something for everyone. Huge menu and fantastic service.
Best lobster ravioli I ve ever had!
Best Greek restaurant ever. The owner is so friendly and makes a point to make his patrons feel special.
Wife has ten percent off discount Got told it was only for her meal, not the family. Server was very rude about it.
The place is very good great food and the server are awesome
Love this restaurant, friendly efficient staff and great food. See you soon Food
Wife and I went here for a date night. Had a great time and an even better amazing meals. The staff were very attentive, even the owner was walking around asking his customers how they liked their meals. Will definitely be back.
I was in Lloydminster for an event and stopped by this restaurant and ended up going in the second day I was there as well because the food was so amazing. The Marias special was likely one of the best meals Ive ever had. Im driving back from Edmonton this weekend just for supper.
Terrible, the spaghetti was made from dough and the sauce is marinara, and the burgers are made from buns, meat,cheese,sauce and spiros is greek but i dont like that because i thought it was italian and my thoughts are always right! Vegetarian options: The burgers that have meat in them Dietary restrictions: if you are on a diet then just eat homecooked meals Parking: You can park in spiros but not if theres no parking spots Kid-friendliness: The children are to childreny Wheelchair accessibility: they were very nice to my friend named wheelchair and let him in with no problem
We were at the Saskatchewan games and were told to try this restaurant. It was so fantastic! Will recommend it to anyone visiting Lloydminister.
Nice atmosphere and great service, food was on the greasy side with most things deep fried, however I dont have much experience with greek cuisine so Im not sure if thats how it is supposed to be
Lovely pop up concert. The singer was amazing!
A Lloydminster classic
A great local business that supports the community and has some of the best staff, food and customer service. This is a fantastic restaurant! 11/10
We had had Spiro s takeout tonight for the first time in a while. It was so delicious, hot, and did I say really delicious !! Such a great local restaurant.
Horrible lasagna. I could not even finish half of the plate. The meatballs were tasting old. The server did not care. Her answer: I just served another lasagna and the person did not complain. Horrible service, pretty bad food. Only positive was the Greek salad. I would not recommend eating on this restaurant.
Celebrating my mothers birthday, the family decided to go here for the gluten free options for one member. Was impressed by the quality and speed of food. Value was even more impressive.
Amazing food and staff, highly recommend and the prices are fantastic.
We showed up when it was really busy and they made room for US service was fantastic food was fantastic
Stop in at Spiro s if you re passing thru Lloydminster! Great Greek food, amazing service and super friendly owner. The restaurant is south from the HWY 16 but it s worth a little bit of detouring. Pork back ribs are delicious the owner special sauce makes the dish extremely tasty Parking: Around the strip mall, an ample amount of parking Kid-friendliness: A doodle pads available
One of my favorite restaurants in Lloydminster. Locally owned and fantastic food. The atmosphere is great and the staff are fantastic. Spiro is always around making sure everything is great, he came by the table and interacted with the kids. He made them paper boats and gave them hugs, they love it and call him grampa Spiro. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for some of the best Greek food around.
Super food and atmosphere
Excellent food! Kid-friendliness: Awesome kids menu Food : 5/5 |
Recently moved back to Lloyd after 25 years away in BC. The wife and I choose Spiros as our first date night destination, couldnt have made a better decision. My wife choose a souvlaki chicken dish with salad and pita, the chicken was unbelievably flavorful and juicy. I had the 14oz prime rib special which was outstanding. The prime rib was tender and cooked exactly as I ordered, the whole plate tasted awesome, from the cooked veggies, to the yorkshire, to the special sauce. We both agreed that Spiros presented us with the hands down best meal we have ever enjoyed together outside of our own home. And to top it off the prices were incredibly as well. A+ and would definitely recommend to anyone with any taste. Amazing food and service, keep up the good work!
Spiros is the best
Went for supper yesterday The waitress gave my husband the wrong drink that he ordered but instead of apologizing she insisted that she did it right We know it wasn t as wherever we eat we always order that drink Food was so-so, quite expensive and small serving .
Excellent dinner, fresh and fast. Family atmosphere.
This is a popular restaurant in Llyodminster. A bit more upscale. It was recommended that I make a reservation and so I did. The food was good and the prices reflected that. The owner of the restaurant personally went from table to table to introduce himself and to take care of any concerns the patrons might have. The service was good but it seemed they were maybe a little understaffed cause it took a while for me to get my waitress to refill my drink. The atmosphere was very relaxed.
Great local restaurant with a big menu. Their specialties they do really well; Greek souvlaki, prime rib special, pizza, pork ribs other Greek items with their special sauce. Everything else that Ive tried they do well. I would say their main issue keeping them from a 5-star is their cooking consistency can be all over the place. I often get two pizzas and both of them will be cooked differently; often at least one overcooked. Similarly, Ive gotten their famous pork ribs many times and more than once they were very overcooked. Its a great restaurant but I really hope they can start to improve their consistency.
Well Excellent is just that, And Spirits has All that...
Friendly and comfortable owner stopped by and chatted with us.
This is the best place I found for gluten free!! So many options!
Very homestyle food, service was great, love that the owner made rounds and was ready and willing to converse with anyone and everyone.
We have eaten here many times and truly, they have never disappointed us! We have had many Special dinners here and we even got Engaged here on New Years Eve... Dec 31st, 2023! Every meal has been deliciously prepared and always a Taste Bud Pleaser! Along side the delicious food the staff are great and service is quick! Always happy and friendly, its always been service with a smile! If your looking for Deliciousness at a reasonable price, give Spiros a try! I Personally Recommend It! Parking: Plenty of Free Parking.
We ate there 2x over the course of 2 weeks while in Lloyd. My only issue: we didn t go enough! The food was consistent and tasty, the atmosphere was good as well. We purchased Greek dressing to take home as well; we will be back to get more! Food arrived in a timely manor, and prepared great.
Good place
Ive been visiting the restaurant/getting take out from Spiros for 30+ years and dont remember remember EVER being disappointed in the food or service. 5 stars, always.
A family favourite! Our out of town family always looks forward to dining in or getting take out from Sprios. Food is always hot and fresh. Highly recommend trying Marias favourite and their lemon rice soup!
Lamb skewers, roasted potatoes, traditional Greek salad and a drink and the calamari appy. Calamari were brown and tough inside instead of golden and tender. Lamb was tough and looked grey without any Greek seasonings. The potatoes were not roasted and only the secret sauce gave them a sour flavor. The Greek salad was not seasoned at all and swam in olive oil. I expected a nice meal after things I have heard and was royally disappointed. Btw I am a professional cook.
Authentic Greek quisine and standard Canadian menu options. A fair number of GF options.
For 28 dollars, they were really cheap with the amount of sauce, which wasnt complimented by how wet the pasta was, overall badly cooked small portion
Must get a bottle of secret sauce I highly recommend it that sauce is good on almost anything!
Great food. Awesome service. Will be back again!
Walking into the restaurant, the ambiance immediately set a cozy tone for the evening, earning a solid 5 out of 5 stars on atmosphere. The dim lighting and tasteful decor promised a relaxing dining experience. The service, however, was where the night began to waver. Despite the staffs friendly demeanor, the long waits and occasional mix-ups led to a 3-star rating. They were apologetic and earnest, suggesting that perhaps it was simply an off night or they were short-staffed. Now, the main event the food was a bit of a letdown. The dishes presented were quite average, lacking that wow factor youd expect from a place with such a charming atmosphere. A middle-of-the-road 3-star rating seems fair here; the food was decent but didnt quite hit the mark in terms of flavor and presentation.
Always great
I ve eaten twice at Spiro s and my previous employer would order their food every Friday and I am absolutely hooked on their lasagna and salads!!! On January 19, 2024, around 1pm, my parents took my lil family out for lunch to celebrate mine and my son s birthdays. We all enjoyed our meals, and the huge slices of cakes were amazing too! I can t wait to dine in again and will be stopping in to buy some of their frozen pasta dishes! I unfortunately didn t take any pictures :( Our server was very friendly and attentive. Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free options available - my parents said they enjoyed their food and portions were bigger than they expected. Parking: As a fairly new Mom, I love that there is parking right in front of the restaurant. Parking lot is well maintained, didn t have to worry about slipping on any ice or walking over snowbanks to get to the sidewalk. Kid-friendliness: My little one is just starting on solid foods, so I ordered a small bowl of mashed potatoes and was pleasantly surprised it was free! My little one ate most of the mashed potatoes and I couldn t feed him fast enough, he liked them so much!
Me and my friend visit Spiro to try the food. The food was good, but customer service was very bad. A server named Pam is very rude in taking our order. Otherwise, I will give 5 stars if she talks in a nice way.
Nice restaurant. Friendly staff. The owner went to all the tables greeting the guests and wishing them a Merry Christmas, which I thought was great. I would go to this restaurant again.
Our go to in Lloydminster, everything I ever had is amazing!! 3 of us had an amazing lunch for $60 including tax and tip! Always great!!
Always a good time. Food was amazing as usual!
Meal was not great and service was terrible.
Amazing place to eat . Accommodated our hockey team amazing like last time :)
Pizza is generally the best youll find in the area and the aroma when you walk in is always fantastic
Did was over cooked as usual at this place. Dry and little flavor. Waitress was very rude when asked a question. She walked away from the table when we asked for utensils and she brought them ten minutes later. The food day and got cold as she was taking other tables orders. This place has had the same mediocre food and rude service for 15 years, Parking: Lot is easy too small for a place this size, next to a hotel.
For me, one of the best places to eat in Lloydminster, cozy place and good food, very attentive and friendly staff.
It was really good
Where is it
Always top notch, delivery driver followed instructions perfectly. Best food in town
Some fine Greek dining. The food was delicious, service was quick and friendly. Highly recommend having a meal here.
Happy 80th Birthday!
Spiros is always a great place to eat. The food is great, the service is top notch and the atmosphere is very good. If I were to nit pick, the only bad thing I could say is that when its busy, it can be hard to find a place to park.
Some great food, sizeable portions and friendly service for a good price!
Very good service & food
The service you get here is like no other. The owners always make you feel like youre family. Their pizza and chicken Alfredo is alway #1. My kids love coming here.
What a fantastic menu. Food is amazing and their in-house sauce is to die for. The calamari was the best that I have ever had. Tender with subtle spices. Would definitely go again. Wheelchair accessibility: They are wheel chair friendly and the waitress even pulled up a chair for me to rest my foot on. Without asking
Took forever to get our food and when we received it, our order was wrong and the food was of poor quality. Little to no service.
1st time visitor. We ordered a deluxe pizza and dry boneless ribs with Greek Salad. Food was excellent as well as service. Shared a New York cheesecake for dessert....again very good. Good size portions ......reasonable prices.
Had a reservation with large group tonight. Waitress was not very pleasant, I realize it was busy, but I still don t appreciate the rudeness. Other waiters and waitresses that popped by were awesome!! My meal was pretty good but overall consensus was mediocre food. Had the burger with salad. Salad is included according to the menu, yet was charged an additional $2.00 for the salad. Not happy I had to pay the mandatory 17% gratuity either, considering the poor service from our main waitress. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options are pretty good.
Family-friendly and excellent service! Generous serving and food taste good!
What can I say awesome. Awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome awesome.
Always enjoyed the food, service...
My family & I enjoyed our meal. Very delicious. Wish we had this restaurant back home.
Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options Food
Great experience,
If you can t find parking you know the place is good! We all enjoyed our meals from prime rib to pasta. Maybe call ahead for reservations? Try the apple
Great food and great service.
Great place
The food and service was excellent and I will return to the restaurant anytime that i am in town.
Excellent restaurant
Didnt have the best of service, sent them an email and havent heard back but its the first time Ive ever had an issue and I will be returning for sure. I love Spiros
This place was fantastic!!!! Their baklava and ekmek was phenomenal! Great food, great service and a great atmosphere. Will definitely be back
Worst shrimp scampi ever and way over priced for only 8 small shrimp and on top of it they didnt even send the garlic bread for the amount and quality you pay for I would not order from them ever again
An excellent family restaurant where delicious Greek dishes are prepared with love and faith in God.
Folks, its the best Greek food in lloyd. Do yourselves a favor and check it out some time.
Great food, excellent service, clean. Owner came to table to ensure everything was up to par
Pizzas were the worst I have ever had from Spiros. I hope it was just a one time thing
Was there last week after Celebration of life for my brother. Was very impressed.
I really enjoyed my experience here! The food was delicious, the service efficient, and the atmosphere pleasant. The owner personally spoke to me to check if everything was okay. The red house wine was also delicious. I look forward to going back in the future.
The service was wonderful, the food was fine and about what you d expect, but the accessibility of the building isn t great. The restaurant says they are family friendly, but they don t have a change table in the men s restroom, they don t have a family change room, and the change table in the women s restroom was in the middle of the bathroom, blocking the entrance to two of the three stalls. While I was changing my kid a woman walked right up to us and stared at my naked kiddo. If the restaurant had put the change table in a stall, no creeps would be able to invade our space and stare at my naked child. The accessible stall was just too small to fit a change table, and also too small to fit a wheelchair. The accessible stall was also difficult to get into and does not have an exterior handle, and the coat hooks were bolted to the top of the door, and not at the mid point. This makes no sense as so much of the rest of the restaurant is fairly accommodating to mobility aids. Kid-friendliness: No change tables in the men s room, single stall restroom, the change table in the women s room is in the middle of the public space. Wheelchair accessibility: Bathrooms not wheelchair friendly
Awesome.
Had prime rib dinner! Was delicious! Great service!!
Foods are so tasty and delicious
Awesome service! Pizza was great and my 14 month old loved her fish and chips. Definitely coming back Food
The food was exceptional. Great flavour with plenty to eat. The server was had was not the best, but that was just one of the staff. Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to get into. Main floor entrance.
This place seems like it has been a pillar in the town for many years. Spanakopita was very good and the Greek waitress spoke. Very good Filipino.
Love this place
A MUST TRY IF YOURE IN TOWN! We were camping and craving some Greek food. We ordered a pizza, shrimp scampi, and stuffed cannelloni with Greek salad for pickup. Portions were large, food was outstanding, and pickup time was quick! Theres something for everyone here.
Lots of flys on the patio, service was okay - we were not informed of any specials - The food carries this place.
Amazing experience. The ambience is very nice, classy but not uptight, and the food is to die for. The service was excellent and all of the staff were very friendly. The entire place, including the bathrooms, is also very clean and nicely decorated. And trust me, try the Baklava.
All great, especially for a smaller city. Ill keep going back, I had a sample of my daughters prime rib. It was one of the best Ive had in years. I had the lunch special, the prime rib sammy. My company had fish and chips, the only complaint was the shoe string fries. All in all, I was satisfied Food
Excellent food. Excellent service.
Decent place with nice food. Mr. Spiro and his staff are always welcoming. If you are planning a lovely dinner with family, Spiros should be your choice!
Best restaurant in Lloyd!
Amazing food. Love their takeout pizza deals. Great service.
Best restaurant in Lloydminster
Great place to enjoy a family dinner. Really appreciate the owner making his tour and interacting with his customers, especially our son. He took the time to learn his name and make a small paper airplane for him, and I believe that small personal interaction makes this place special
Have done multiple large orders for work events and just ordered delivery for myself. They always get the order right. Customer service is great and so is the food
Better places in town to eat. No service at all. Very inappropriate behaviour. Treat your customers equally.
Food is good but online services are not. Placed an order online, waited an hour just to receive an email that the order is cancelled.
Always amazing
What a lovely restaurant! The decor was elegant and welcoming, and very festive for the time of year. The menu had great variety, and the prices were quite reasonable for the quality of food. Everything was tasty and plentiful, from the Greek salad to the ribs in special sauce. The lemon meringue pie was delightfully fresh and delicious. All in all, it was a wonderful experience!
Excellent service and the food was even better. Giant dessert portions to end the night.
The food was absolutely delicious. I would recommend this place for anyone, with a wide selection I am sure even a picky eater would find a treat.
Waited 1hr and a half for food pick up. It was given to me cold. You can tell it was sitting there for an hour forgotten. Did this on mothers day waiting with my 4 year old daughter in their lobby.
The service was impeccable.
Great patio with delicious Greek choices! Always a pleasure
Everything was top notch,
Love the atmosphere and the food. Definetly crave it.
One of our favourite restaurants. There is something special about family ran businesses and you feel like part of their family here. All of the staff is incredible, food is always great, their patio is beautiful and I appreciate all their new menu items and their gluten free knowledge and selection! Our small kids request to eat here all the time! Dress up for a nice evening out or meet a friend for a casual drink and dinner - you can never go wrong choosing Spiros!
Always amazing food with amazing service!
Appetizers were fine.Had the mussaka and was mostly ground beef.Saw only 1 peice of eggplant and apiece of potato.Service was great.Greek beers good.Will not return.Not good dollar value.
Had dinner twice, the food was fresh and flavourful, one of the few restaurants I liked most.
Fantastic service and food!
Highly recommend this establishment.. service and food are +10..
Large portions and great food.
A little expensive but overall food was amazing portions where great aswell
Ive been here before [ordering steak, a burger and cheese flambe] with my husband and it impressed us enough that we wanted to take our friends from out of the country. However, when we came the second time; the waitress was curt and unfriendly, the [pastas] were a bit bland and [the cheese flambe was] really salty [compared to last time]; so our overall experience was surprisingly disappointing. I know this restaurant has done us well before, so Im unsure which experience was the anomally and which is the norm. But as it stands right now, [I would recommend the steaks and meats over the pastas] for the price point. *Edit: Thank you Spiros, for reading my review and responding. That alone shows you care and seek to always improve. Four stars. *I made some adjustments [ ] that I remembered later on to be more accurate and helpful.
We had an amazing lunch on the patio last weekend. One of the nicest patios I have ever ate at.
Patio is awesome, however the back ground music could be much lower. Was hard to visit. Food was delicious
Loved the green beans. I mean who wouldn t!? Nice, friendly service, and food was fast to come out. Best part of the evening, was the company that I had absolutely fantastical.
Great pizza. Had ham and pineapple and pepperoni bacon and mushroom I think it was. Both were really good. The sauce was fantastic and the dough was not super heavy which we liked. We ordered a Cesar salad but received a Greek. Salad was very good none the less. Would for sure eat here again.
Excellent food and a great supporter of the community. Gorgeous 3 season patio.
Probably the best restaurant in Lloydminster area. Food is excellent and service is amazing. Definitely our go to for a night out with the wife
Friendly and inviting atmosphere and very good food. Local family that supports the community and other businesses. Very nice new outdoor patio.
Food was decent, presentation was classy but our server was terrible. She was extremely rude and bad at her job. The bill said her name is PAM. She was the short one with the glitter clog looking shoes and the orange/pinkish Apple Watch band. She should not be in the service industry. Worst service I ve ever had and I m a server myself.
Friendly waitress and food was delicious.
Best family restaurant in Lloydminster, IMO. Exceptional food and service with friendly staff. Kids food comes fast and warm, not too hot!
Too loud, not relaxing
Not just great for and service They care - really care! Thank you so very much for your gift / blessing to us as we gather, grieve and celebrate the life of our dear Ron Harris Jr. Great Food made with deep love Thank you The Harris Family Lloydminster
The staff were somewhat helpful the food and atmosphere was awesome as always. Dietary restrictions: Have a reasonable gluten free menu Food : 5/5 |
Good food, good service.
I wish every restaurant was like this place! Not over priced, professional staff, wicked food, Im a huge fan Food
Delicious food at very reasonable prices, always fresh. I try to eat there every time I m passing through Lloydminster.
Was a really great restaurant, great vibes and energy and the owner and staff made us feel at home and we were fed excellant food!!! Highly recommend
A real treat in Lloydminster. The food is excellent and service is wonderful. Great lemon soup and dolmas.
for a Greek restaurant didnt find the food too good. Mr Bills is way better
Top notch, as always. Spiro is such a nice, polite person as well. Always a treat to take the family here.
Best place for supper in town. I have been several times and I try different foods each time. I have NEVER had a bad meal
Some meals a very hit or mise, for example the uneatable kfc greasy like fish and chips, to the freezer burnt McCain fries really unimpressed
Food is amazing and great service!
We like food , service, everything , local or not worth to visit
