Everything you want in a Greek restaurant and more! I absolutely loved everything I ate. Delicious! We walked in on a busy Saturday night without a reservation and they were kind enough to find a table. Our service was nothing short of perfect. Waters always full and a delightful attentive wait person. Very affordable for such generous portions! Definitely get the hummus, it was fresh and so good. Would definitely return! 5 stars!
I wish I came sooner………LOVE LOVE LOVE THE FOOD is amazing the staff is outstanding Good size portions will keep going back again and again

We had my in-laws wedding anniversary lunch at Greek Taverna Montclair in December 2023. I highly recommend this place. The staff were amazing, delicious food, great ambiance, and hospitable staff especially Nick, Ana and Carlos. They all went above and beyond. We had kids and we had seniors in our party. It has its own parking lot and no steps, a plus for mobility issues!
What a surprise this was. From the moment we walked into the restaurant we knew that we were in for a fantastic time. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. The aromas from the kitchen were inviting. The server had a humorous and attentive quality. We had two appetizers for our dinner along with the delicious warm seasoned pita they served. The cold grilled eggplant had a creaminess to it and went well with the warm pita. We chose this seafood appetizer that was like an entree enough for two people. It was cooked to perfection. Grilled shrimp, grilled calamari and grilled octopus all in a delicious oil based sauce. It was to die for. What an unbelievable dinner. We actually had room for dessert so we tried their fillo dough wrapped around some fresh melty cheese with sugar and cinnamon on top. Overall it was a fantastic meal and a top notch restaurant. Everything was perfect. Parking: Small adjacent parking lot, otherwise you have to select paid street parking.
Really nice looking restaurant with tasty food but the service was very slow. We were seated right away but the waitress was busy talking to her co workers for 15-20 minutes before we were asked if we were ready to order. They definitely attempted to make up for the delay by bringing us a basket of really excellent grilled pita along with a sampling of dips. The seafood was all cooked perfectly and came out tender and delectable.
Really nice environment. Our waiter was very attentive to us. The bread is delicious and FREE. The food was really good as well, and the environment looks like a Truly Greek Tavern. They also offered us dessert without charge, which was delicious as well. I was pretty impressed with the attentive service.Food: 5/5
Came with my lil bro and his wife as they were visiting the NE :D There is a free parking lot next to the building, so yay. It's so hard to find free parking in Monclair downtown area, hehehe We were here on Monday MLK day. Between lunch and dinner so we had the place to ourselves. The bread they served was delicious! I had 1 piece, and when I reached for another, it was all gone... We were given 8 pieces for 4 people, and it should have been 2 pieces each! LoL GREEK STYLE CHICKEN RISOTTO - I loved it, and I remembered to tell them not to al dente LOL MOUSSAKA - hubby loved it. I thought the potatoes were undercooked... CHICKEN SOUVLAKI with PATATES PSITES STO FOURNO - lil bro loved his meal Chicken Platter - his wife liked her meal as well. The chicken wasn't too dry. Cheese Cake Baklava - As soon as I saw this on the menu, I had to try it! I love each desert individually, so it must be good. 1st bite was good, creamy, soft, and not too sweet. 2nd bite, hum little salty... 3rd bite was ok, and then everyone started to say, is it a bit salty to you? And I was like , yes, wth?! The cream cheese was well mixed in that it had a wonderfully creamy texture. But I think they mixed up the salt for the sugar??? Because it was really salty. I know cream cheese is salty, but this was extra salt... great idea poorly executed. Parking: Their own parking lot.
This wonderful boite in Montclair has free parking adjoining the restaurant, which is very rare in Montclair. The food was good, the prices were remarkably reasonable and the service was great. The restaurant was empty on a Saturday afternoon.Food: 5/5
Ordered lunch for take out and everything came out perfect. My order only took about 15min to make and it was 100% correct. The packaging was durable which is always appreciated. My Horiatiki salad with chicken was fresh and tasty. My husband ordered the gyro platter and thought it was very tasty as well. Will definitely eat here again!
