Reviews for Takis' Taverna in Vancouver, BC
We were recommended this Greek restaurant so we were very excited to go there. Unfortunately they didn’t live up to our... expectations. The service was mediocre at best, and the food wasn’t much better. Read more
Excellent restaurant with delicious dishes, good big portions, Greek beer and wine and gorgeous interiors. The staff is very... kind and polite. Loved the experience. Read more
Excellent meal in a friendly casual atmosphere. Very generous portions!
Well, I was a little disappointed. I didn't get a sense of being in a Greek restaurant. There was no Greek music, no friendly... greeting and the 2 staff that were waiting on us were east Indian. This is not a racist comment. I had heard this was afriendly family owned business. I didn't realize the restaurant was under new management. The place looked untended. Staffcoats, etc were piled by the bar area near the kitchen, and that area just looked messy. The table cloth we were at had largegrease (?) stains. There is a lot of history in this place. I just hope the new owners can do it justice. I will say the foodwas great, the Retsina wine was delicious, the portions were generous. Bill was $88 for 2 full meals and a 1/2 L of Retsina, noappetizers or dessert. For Vancouver Davies restaurant area, those prices are decent. Read more
I recently moved to Vancouver last year so I’m still discovering the city and the hidden gems, but it’s safe to say Takis is... definitely on the top of the list! I have gone into the restaurant to eat with my fiancé a couple times and experienced suchgreat, welcoming, fast service. The food is amazing, fresh and great value for your dollar! My favorite dishes are the SalmonSlovakia and Grilled Calamari. ESPECIALLY the Grilled Calamari! My fiancé enjoys the Lamb Klefitiko. When we order delivery thefood is just as good and timely!! Would definitely recommend for authentic Greek cuisine. Read more
Good both as a dine in and takeout experience. Every aspect of my dish was fresh and flavourful, including the rice which same... places leave rather bland. Salad could use more sauce love, but was still fine. This spot is directly beside another Greekrestaurant with a similar menu. This one is slightly more expensive, but I found the taste and quality also higher, so it allmeasures up. Read more
Really enjoyed the grilled calamari dinner. Large amount of calamari, and it was grilled to perfection. The other components of... the dinner plate like the potatoes and rice were delicious as well! Their tzatziki sauce isn’t that great, food tasted betterwithout it. The spanakopita was decent. Service could use some work. We were one of the only two tables at the restaurant buttook ages for the waiter to come take our order or even check on us, and water was never refilled unless we asked for anotherjug. Read more
Our "must hit" restaurant each time we are in Vancouver. Its food is fabulously tasty. There are restaurants with fancier... interiors, crisp wait-staff looks & procedures but from Taki's, one gets well fed on classic, healthy food. ???????? Read more
