The service was absolutely disappointing. I would never go again to this place for any reason and I don't recommend this restaurant, not even to my worst enemy.
Long story short. Me and my girlfriend brought a coupon from one of the website. We went to the restaurant and we were asked to wait 45min for a table. (Note that we told them we have a coupon) Then we waited by the door for our table. Few minutes later another couple came in and spoke to the owner, me and my girlfriend over heard that he told them to wait for 20min. Me and my girlfriend looked at each other, going what?!! Is it we had a coupon so we have to wait longer? We walked right out of the restaurant after that. Luckily we can refund our coupon or else we have to suffer thru the bad customer service!
Went here for an early Saturday dinner around 3:30, so the place was relatively unoccupied, with 3 other tables seated. Ordered the meatballs to start and a feta lamb dish. Fiancee ordered Avgolemono (chicken soup), Chicken Rosemary Pie, and Yiaourti (greek yogurt with figs).
The meatballs were the best I've had in years. I also enjoyed the Avgolemono soup a lot, so much that I ended up having 3 spoonfuls, after only asking my fiance for one. She only found it ok, a little too creamy for her taste. The salad with the lamb dish was ok; typical greek salad. Both the Pie and Lamb were delicious. My only complaint with the lamb was that I asked for it medium, and the center pieces were a little closer to medium rare. The Yiaourti tasted like cheesecake with figs! Delicious but a little too much after such a filling meal. Had already overstuffed myself since the food tasted so good!
Luckily, since it was Winterlicious, my fiancee's meal only came to about $20, mine was about $45. (Fountain drinks not refillable).
we had the hummus and kebabs. it was not such a great experience as we did not like the food. the service was alright although they were closing down and hurrying on getting us out. there was no one else in the place and its a really big place to be in alone. the decor is above par though. overall it was adequate but nothing I would go back for.
Wow - What a great place... We have been to many...
Wow - What a great place... We have been to many restaurants on the Danforth and Ouzeri is by far one of the best! Great food - Great Service!
I would recommend this restaurant to friends and family!

The hostesses at the front did not seem to know what they were doing as they forgot to seat us. The appetizers were good. The greek salad was made entirely with ice berg lettuce which was cheap. The drinks were way too strong; we couldn't finish them. The ice had fruit flies in it. At the bottom of our water and cocktail glasses were little flies. Gross. The souvlaki was okay - I've had better. We found that the meat was undercooked - there was lots of pink in the pork and some in the chicken. Our waiter didn't seem to know what was going on when we asked questions. I would not return as there are many better places to eat on the Danforth.
The food was great, but our dining experience was...
The food was great, but our dining experience was completely ruined by the fact that the staff was rude, unprofessional and in some cases unable to handle food and drinks without spilling them onto the customers
I could eat here every day!!! What a wonderful experience. The food was so tastey and cooked to perfection. The service was excellent.
It is a GREAT value for your money. Excellent choice of beers on tap.(only 4 but they are the BEST ones to have)
This is THE place to eat for greek food!!!!!!!!
We will return again and again!!!
Since I'm a big fan of Greek cuisine, I frequently visit the Danforth (Greek town in Toronto) and have tried pretty much every restaurant on the strip. When ranking Greek restaurants, Ouzeri is right at the top of my list. The food is great and the prices are very affordable.
Ouzeri’s concept stays true to the Greek tradition of creating a social experience around the food. Each dish is inspired by the meals made in the kitchens of local villages in Greece. Make sure to order a glass of ouzo before you dig in!
