Bewertungen von Ithaca Restaurant

This is my new favourite Greek restaurant. They have pretty much everything on their menu. Souvlaki (chicken, lamb and pork), Gyro, Lamb chops, Roasted Lamb and Rack of Lamb. I had the rack of lamb and it was amazing. Falling off the bone, juicy and full of flavour. It wasn't too strong of a lamb taste, which is a good thing. The meal came with fresh garlic bread for free. Yes for free lol. It wasn't the cheap stuff either. The Greek salad was one of the best I've had. Loaded with tons of veggies, cucumbers, red onions, tomatoes, and olives. I wasn't a big fan of the sides that the meal came with. Steamed veggies which tasted very plain. Also in the menu it mentioned the meal came with roasted potatoes Greek style, but they tasted more like plain boiled ones. The service is pretty good and prices were reasonable. They also have a delivery service and offer take out. Can't believe this place has been around for 15+ years and I just found out about it now. Much better than most places in Greek town.

2017/11/11<br/>We had dinner at Ithaca several years ago, and it was time for another visit. The restaurant was much less than half full. On a Saturday evening I thought it would have been busier. We were promptly seated at nice table for two, beside the front window. <br/><br/>We ordered our drinks with one server, and they were quickly brought by another server. They obviously use the team serving approach, which we have observed at other Greek restaurants. We ordered our meals, and while we waited, a couple of flaming cheese dishes were lit at other tables, with a resounding “OPA!”.<br/><br/>SWMBO picked the Chicken Souvlaki and mine dish was the Moussaka (which the waiter said was one of his favourites). While the main courses were being prepared, they brought our Garlic Bread and our Greek Salads. The bread and salads were fresh. The salad was just the right size as a starter. <br/><br/>SWMBO’ chicken had nice grill marks, and was tender and juicy, with just a little bit of seasoning. She said that her roasted potatoes were better than others she has had. <br/><br/>My moussaka was one of the better ones that I have had. The béchamel was creamy, but not runny, and it had some flavour. The ground beef and eggplant layers were also quite tasty. The whole thing was good. <br/><br/>I like the team approach. Service was very good.

Worst restaurant in Markham. Terrible food!! Terrible service!! My wife ordered seafood pasta it tasted like it had no seasoning. I had chicken parm and it had no sauce and was dry. I even had ordered extra sauce which they didn't deliver. When I called to complain she was rude and cussed me out. Soggy veggies in the salad. All the food seems like it was frozen then microwaved.

I ordered takeout through JustEat. If I could rate this 0 stars for service, I would. The manager/owner was extremely rude to me. First they cancelled my order, because I requested pick-up and they thought I wanted delivery (which would give them an extra $3 fee) and I had to hold for 10 minutes before that was sorted out. Then they made a mistake on my order - I then had to drive back, return my food, then get yelled at because "nobody reads the comment section", so it was my fault because I didn't order my food properly??? The manager kept trying to shift the blame on me, and made condescending noises, but when a second customer entered the restaurant and could hear him, he immediately backtracked and apologized. In addition, I was told to pick up my replacement order in 15 minutes - when I showed up, expecting the food to be ready, I was then told they would cook it at that point. Why did I have to wait then??? Again, I had to actually bring back the wrong order in order to exchange it for what I had actually ordered. Final straw - once the order was ready, it was whipped across the counter at me. I honestly have no good things to say about this place.

Their website says they open at 11am on Sundays, so that’s the time we decided to meet. So it was a surprise when we entered the restaurant to find that the doors were certainly unlocked but that there was no host or hostess at the front to serve us. We stood there for a minute or two before a kitchen staff noticed us and told us to just take a seat at any table as a server would be with us shortly. Okay then…

I come from an area of Canada that has a large Greek community, and this some really amazing Greek cuisine. I have to say that Ithaca truly matches up well with any of these that I grew up with. They have the friendly service, the extreme generosity of portions (you should never leave a real Greek restarant without leftovers), and such a great authentic taste that is often lost to me here in Ontario. Hats off to to the owner who shares my name. He's gotten it right. Best Greek place I have been to in the twelve years I have been in Ontario. I will go back, and recommend this place to anyone who enjoys Greek food.

Nope, I'm not referring to the Restaurant Makeover eatery that was formerly Ithaca. I'm talking about the Greek restaurant on the east side of town. Ithaca is also the name of an island in Greece. That's about as much as I know with regards to the name of the restaurant, but it gives me another location to put on my places to travel list. This is my first time eating at Ithaca despite passing by it many times. Having said that, first impressions will count as usual, but you'll mainly hear how the experienc
