The food along with the price is good. The ambience could use a little update as it looks a little old and run down, but than again if they did that than the prices would probably go up.

PROS: Food is always top-tier. My go-to appetizer is the pita and tzatziki, main is BBQ or Greek style ribs with the Greek salad. So delicious! The pizza and baklava for dessert are a couple other tasty menu items. Service is always amazing and there is lots of seating for small or large groups. Price is extremely decent for the amount of food you get. I always leave with a happy belly and to-go box full of lunch for the following day. Parking is decent, location is decent. CONS: The restaurant style is dated. I am conflicted with this as it has that cozy "grandma's house" sort of feel; but still think some revamping would go a long way.

I love this little gem. Greeks amazing, Italians ok. I find that their pasta is over done and their garlic bread ..lol is just white bread with some garlic salt, but it's dependable and wonderful staff and pizza

Our server is polite enough, the calamari portion was massive for the price but very salty, the Greek salad was very oily, the Greek style ribs were on point as was the moussaka. The sides were meh, but I'll be back.

I ordered lasagna..never tried this restaurant and I cant stomach the flavor..first time in my life lasagna doesnt taste remotely like lasagna..tastes of burnt cheese..Sourish sauce with an overwhelming taste of cinnamon for some reason ..I cant eat it..tastes so strange with all that cinnamon

Med rare 6 Oz steak over cooked an looks like the back was cut off Greek salad with only 3 olives with huge seeds in them also who puts a huge amount of lettus in a Greek salad the best part of the salad was the dressing

December 22, 2022

We ordered last night I ate cheese toast and chicken caesar salad and I got food poisoning been up all night sick then my fiancé ate the other garlic toast and it had a huge chunk of mould on the bread! Definitely do not recommend it was also expensive for mouldy bread!

I have mixed feelings about this restaurant. We ordered on skip the dishes. Food arrived relatively fast. But literally every single dish was caked in about a half inch of cheese. I like cheese as much as the next person but it seemed a bit excessive in my opinion. Also not totally sure if the pasta is made fresh or not.

We ordered from this place tonight off skip the dish from our hotel room as we have three little kids and didn t want to drag them out to a restaurant. When I placed my order it never gave me the option to give them our room number and I forgot to put it in the comments to the restaurant. I called and asked if they could kindly let the driver know our room number so they new where to go the guy on the phone argued with me and was extremely rude. After a few minutes of banter he finally agreed to let them know. Very disappointing that you would treat your paying customers with such disrespect. Will never eat here again and we come to red deer often as we have family here.

Waitress was very polite and patient with us. The food was fantastic and very hot. The cook on the other hand have us the impression that he wanted us to leave asap when we were done eating. Mind you the restaurant was closed and the waitress was still cleaning. So I wonder how good the kitchen was cleaned as the restaurant was just closed.

The service was poor, not at the fault of the waitress. But the lack of staff. Im sorry i didnt tip but it was way to expensive for the food recieved. The tatziki was waaaaaay to garlicy and i swear it was either carbonated or sour. Sent it back and i was told it was fine and i just wasnt used to it.. No im not used to eating fermented greek yogurt and dill garlic. Im sorry.The food was nothing special. Chicken was frozen and the veggies were cold. Baked potato was good. Spanikopita was previously frozen and gooey. It was just gross for 56 $..

I love their food!!! I have never eaten something I didnt like here. They are a smaller restaurant but busy so there is sometimes a wait but the staff are so personable and great that you dont really mind waiting. Good for a quick bite for lunch or a romantic hidden spot for supper.

December 22, 2016

Had dinner with 6 friends at Saros on Friday night. We all agreed it was the most boring, overpriced and awful food wed had in a long time! Ive eaten there many times over the years and thought it was O.K. I wont be going back.

December 22, 2016

My friend and I had the lasagna and chicken souvalaki. Lasagna burnt and chicken was greasy olives rotten, we sent it back! While In the washroom owner came out and told her and I to get out in broken english and not come back! Definitely she said we wont! Being regular for years not good for people scarry attack on seniors! And other people who support this stinky dump! Besides govt employees supporting this place more power to them!

December 22, 2016

NEVER AGAIN! Work just around the corner and have gone in for both eat in and take out many times in the past. Have found that the food has been steadily going downhill for a few months now. Prices are getting higher and food is getting much worse. Ordered lasagna with extra cheese today, took 40 minutes to get our food and it was burned, cheese was so hard I had to scrape it off and pretty sure I got charged anyway even though I asked her to adjust the bill. The server was just plain rude to us, we did nothing to deserve having her act this way, it wasnt that busy so have no idea why it took so long for our food and why the staff was in such a bad mood but doesnt matter, you dont take your bad day out on your customers!

The pizza here is delicious, but I absolutely adore their ravioli. The servers are awesome; when I come in, they know what I usually have, and I dont even have to really ORDER. Their greek salad is among the best Ive had, and Their ribs are pretty good too.
