I have been going here for thirty years, and they are still the Best Greek Restaurant in town. The atmosphere is warm, service is friendly and above average. I love their Calamari, Spanakopita is good but must ask them not to microwave. The usual Greek Souvlaki, is fresh and favorful. Their specialty is the lamb - and wow it is unbelievably tender. Still a great bargain for a real classy joint!
Ruined our Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner.
The Trio I got:
-Lobster tail: over-cooked but not hot, not tasty
-Prawns? They were shrimp!!!
-Steak: (please see pictures)
Steak was way too over-cooked. I asked for medium rare, picture on the left was what I got, to me it's more than medium well. The server did change for me, but when she brought me the new steak (picture on the right), she...

Great service and good food. Portions sizes are good. Complimentary pita bread (warm and fluffy) and butter are provided. Food came relatively quickly. I would definitely recommend for the nice ambiance and a good alternative to all the Asian food options in the neighbourhood.
Great place to go with a large party, they have a separate area from the main dining area to have more privacy. There were 10 of us and we ordered from a set menu. Starters were family style and had a good selection and filling. For the main had a good selection to choose from. I ordered the rack of lamb which was really good. Was pleasantly surprised to find a restaurant like this in Richmond... more
Very disappointed at my dining experience there.
I love Greek food and decided to try this establishment while in the Vancouver area.
First the wine list was pathetic and the server was clueless.
The pita bread was served with cheap butter insteadof olive oil.
The spanacopita did not have enough cheese in them. The lambchops
Were served with some disgusting sweet sauce instead of oregano and...

overpriced restaurant with mediocre food. I came here for dinner and am confused as to why so many reviewers are think that the portion size is generous. It's not small but generous may be a bit of a stretch. Quality of food aside but Stephos - now that's generous.
Friendly service but I wish they would actually listen. (salad on a separate plate from the rest of the food - comes back with a...

So I will be writing two reviews for this restaurant. I visited Felico's for the very first time in December 2012 with two friends of mine. I ordered some seafood pasta and was not at all happy with the way it tasted, the pasta was overcooked and I just couldnt eat it after a couple of bites. When we asked for the bill, the waiter bought it to us and when we told him we wanted to split it 3... more
i spent my March Break in visiting my parent in Richmond downtown. Chinese food abound, after 5 days of having it, we needed something different other than pizza and fish and chips in Steveston Wharf which is another good alternative to Asian food stuff. In desperation for some normal food, we recollected that Felico's left us with a very good... more
We usually end up coming back to this restaurant every two years or so and everytime I think that we have had better food elsewhere. Felico's was rated quite high non the list on Trip Advisor so we tried again. Perhaps it was just what we ordered: the Seafood platter for two.. it came with a nice greek salad... but... more
Great friendly place with good quality food at good prices. It can be a little noisy and crowded on a weekend but well worth a visit. Best lamb in Vancouver.
I always order the combo platter because I love variety. Spanakopita, Keftedes (meat balls), Kalamary, etc... All great tasting . And a side of giant baked beans that are to die for.
Ughhhh, so I had one great experience here, and it only takes the second time to make me never come here again.
I had the same thing (seafood pasta) but this time 30 minutes later when I got home. I got the worst stomach ache I think I ever had. I literally felt like I was going to die. I had no idea what was in the pasta but my stomach was so mad at me for eating it I'm never coming here again!
This place was excellent from the moment we walked in until we left. The décor and ambience was impressive to see, especially in a greek restaurant. Our server was very friendly and helpful. They suggested for our group of 3 people, a platter and the keltico (roast lamb). There was so much delicious food here it was great. The lamb... more
Maybe we caught the server on a bad day. Or maybe he wasn't happy he had to serve us as a group. Yes, I know it sucks to serve a group but didn't have to make it so obvious. I felt like he gave a really fake and uppity attitude. Didn't come back to check how our meal was. There... more
I read all the reviews. I went anyways.
I asked the waitress what she would recommend the lamb chops or
Chicken shish kabob. She said the chicken. Most good Greek restaurants would go
For the lamb. My chicken was overcooked. The roasted potatoes turned out to be potatoe.
It was undercooked. I tasted my 3 kids food and was glad...

Welcome to the club Felicos.
Just a few blocks from Lansdowne station there's a standalone Mediterranen restaurant. The interior was memorable for its art deco feel and high ceilings with skylights. Classy, but also family friendly.
It serves the contemporary Greek food we have come to expect, in a rather cute, more upscale venue. All for about a $5 surplus.
Sauteed seafood ($19) -a nice...

The reviews are a bit misleading, the calamari seemed to be stale and the food was ok at best.
The ambience is good and te service the excellent, having said that the pricing should be lower.
Four of us dined at Felico's Friday evening. From the moment you arrive there is something warm and friendly about this place, yet very upscale.
Every staff member is engaging and smiling; our server Jessica was as delightful and a server could be. Her recommendations were very worthwhile.
The Kleftico is so tasty and tender and the mint gravy accompanying...

We came about 6 ish and were promptly and courteously seated at a nice window seat. Attentive but not pushy service - polite and cheerful all evening. For appies we had We had the deep fried Greek cheese and crab cakes in a wonderful sauce. Our waiter promptly gave us his recommendation - 3 of us had the Kleftico(lamb shoulder... more
Service was excellent. Welcoming and attentive. We have some favorite Greek restaurants around town so it was interesting to compare....whole wheat pita was a tasty alternative..tzatziki was tasty we really enjoyed the potatoes and roast lamb..tender and delicious..the Greek specialties were also the best ..keftedes were flavorful..dolmathes were superb ...so aromatic and flavorful..the... more
I found this restaurant hunting around on TripAdvisor - go TripAdvisor! Am staying in a hotel near the airport and wanted to find something different and good. Well, this lived up to the reviews already posted. Free parking - check. Safe area - check. Nice atmosphere - check. Good prices - check. Great wait staff, especially Lucas - check. Great... more
The staff made us feel extremely welcome and appreciated right off the bat. The atmosphere was wonderful, and Greek food was just delicious. One of the absolute best evening dinners I have had since arriving in the lower mainland, I highly reccommend Felicos!
Lovely meal, and great atmosphere. Not too expensive, Good wine list. Friendly helpful staff, Service was excellent, you knew your server was near by but not hovering over you. Wold recommend to all
If frozen and re-heated food is your deal then by all means go for it!
nothing on the menu is cooked fresh when I asked the staff to confirm or deny this all i got were shrugs,
- Poor frozen/bought in foods including
- dolmades - awful
- calamar - obviously frozen
- spanakopita
- fatty poor cuts of lamb - inedible
- chicken was ok and had a decent charbroiled taste
Haven't been here in over 17 years, it has been renovated and is very nice. We had the seafood platter for 2. It came with several items, steamed mussels, Shrimp cakes, seafood in cream sauce, a salad. Good food for a good price.
My husband and I chose Felico's based on the reviews on TripAdvisor. I could not talk him into sharing a platter with me, so I ordered half rack of lamb instead. It was really good. My husband ordered the braised shank of lamb and he enjoyed his also. We both ordered salads as appetizers. I was a bit disappointed with... more
When craving greek food in Richmond, we fall back on this place. Platter specials are better for value. Roasted Lamb loved by my husband and son every time we eat here. Good size portion and sides (rice, potato, greek salad) nicely done. Pita bread perfectly warmed to enjoy with tzaziki and humous. Tzaziki could be thicker and a bit more... more
My wife and I chose Felico's based on the reviews on TripAdvisor. They weren't wrong! The hostess and the wait staff couldn't have been more friendly. The food was the best Greek I've ever eaten. We got the Famous Platter for two which had a very nice selection of different dishes (kalamaria, dolmades, keftedes, chicken spanakopia, homous, satziki, greek salad... more
We are staying at the Radisson in Richmond because of its proximity to the airport following disembarking from a fun but tiring cruise/tour. We did not feel adventurous enough to sample the many, scarily authentic Asian restaurants in the area and so made the 10 minute walk to Felico's. It was the perfect choice. Excellent service, good food at a... more
Very bright,warm ,great food, good portions and freindly staff
I go to this place every once in a while for a pleasant dinner with my family.
Their prices are a bit pricey $15~$25/person, but if you order the right stuff, they are very delicious and satisfying.
They have some unique appetizers, like the
Saganaki
Fried kefalotiri cheese (smooth, light, and melts in your mouth)
As a fan of steaks, I would recommend their
AAA Alberta Filet mignon!!!

Food, supa yummy; atmosphere, supa nice; always our home' first choice
Huge portions, friendly staff. We've been here twice now and will be visiting often. Very fresh and well prepared food. The Greek salad though a tasty salad is not the best Greek salad I've ever had, but as my husband is from Athens maybe I'm too picky.
Had dinner here a few nights ago. Everything they say about this place is true. Great food, nice attentive staff, all in all a wonderful dining experience.
I will come back again for some great Greek food.
Our family has been going to this restaurant for years -- we love it, and rarely have a less than perfect evening there The staff treat us like family members they like! and the food is real and the service is great!
Great food, excellent service and generous portions. What else is there???
Typical Greek menue, but very well done. The prices are reasonable and the service excellent - friendly but not obsequious, and prompt.
The restaurants floor board creaks and cracks so loudly,every time a waiter briskly walks by! It's so loud the cracks that it actually interrupts our conversation during dinner! Hope the owner will fix the problem,or hire "less heavy" waiters. We complaint to our server,he apologize and offered us free coffee. WOW !!
Ourrent visit to Felico's Restaurant was wonderful. The food and service have been of a consistently high quality for many years. This year, our menu choices met this high standard. Felico's constanly refreshes their menu, so we have noticed there are always new items to try. We dine at Felico's at least 3 or 4 times per year, and always... more
This restaurant is wow. They go all out for Christmas, very tastefully decorated. The food here was excelelnt. We had a group menu that consisted of Lamb, Steak, Chicken and Seafood. The roast lamb was exceptional. The service was perfect. Could not ask for more. I would recommend this place to everyone. This was my first time and definately will... more
The ambiance is very nice. It's loud but not annoying. Their hummus & pita bread are so good, I would've settled & been happy with just that dish. But, their real treasure is the baklava. Oh my goodness! They make it from scratch, totally vegan & divine!
We have been to this restaurant several times and enjoyed everything. They have this amazing chocolate cake with brownie, cheesecake, mousse... basically everything chococate is in this! We usually get one of the platters to share (and it is enough food for 3 people at least). We also enjoy the roast lamb. The prices are slightly lower for lunch although... more
We wanted something light and Greek came into mind. Our local friend took us here and among the sea of Chinese restaurant, you find Felicos. Looking tacky on the outside, I wouldn't have came here is not brought here. Service was the shining star. We were attended to to when need and the inside of the place was nicely remodelled to a moder Greek theme. The food was okay. Nothing fancy, nothing... more
Previously, I hadn't been to Felicos in years but my friend suggested it for our get-together. The food is quite good and a good Greek option for Richmond. Good, large sized portions of food; I didn't find the cost prohibitive for what was offered.
They were quite willing to serve us the cake we brought (for my friend's birthday), the service was quite friendly and she made sure we had all the...

We have been here a number of times for dinner and lunch. Most recently we took out of town visitors to enjoy dinner at Felico's. As always the service was quick and friendly and the portions are more than some of us could finish. Their calamari are some of the tastiest I've ever had, and the baked beans on the... more
Starving after a long day in the states, a friend pointed us to this Greek joint.
When we arrived, it was dead empty and they were about to close. This place is pretty large with a decent ambiance (renovated 3 years ago).
Having our own private dining room in a sense made for great service, however the food was nothing special. Prices are a little on the higher end for Greek, but at least the...

When we went in the restaurant and waited to be seated, however, the hostess was on the personal call and didn't pay attention to us. After she hang up and didn't apologize to us for waiting.
Well... we waited for another 10-15 mins before the waitress came over to take the order. She was nice and apologize to us for missing our table.
We got Felicos Platter to share, it included
Greek salad...

I've been to this place quite a few years ago and I remember having a horrible experience; as a result, I've shied from dining here, but chance has led me to it once again.
What I remember about my last visit was the horrible service- I will completely revoke that because our gal was an absolute darling and was one of the kindest and sharpest servers I have ever had.
The food itself took a...

If you read Chinese newspaper like Singtao or Mingpao look for the coupon for felicos platter $14.95 per person. You get Greek salad,homous,satziki,pita bread,prawn cocktail,kalamari,chicken,lamb,roast potato,rice and veggies. Believe me the portions are generous and food taste good. Without the coupon the platter is just a few dollars more still a good deal. For their anniversary special they... more
The service leaves alot to be desired. We waited 20 minutes after being seated for our server to show up to take our drink order. Two tables were seated after us got their drinks before our order was even taken. Our server dropped off our drinks and said she would be back after delivering a hot entree to another table.... more
In the Asian dominated Richmond, it's nice to be able to find some decent Mediterranean food without having to venture into Vancouver.
Felico's is by far the #1 restaurant in Richmond to offer this and the food speaks for itself. Service is incredible at all times and having their own parking lot makes it convenient to come here where it is generally crowded by the Asian malls.
Staff is nothing special, price is ok for big groups; not worth for smaller ones. Their chicken dishes are something to be proud of. =)
One of the BEST Greek restaurants I've ever been to. Lamb dishes are especially delicious, service is very fast, and entertainment is fantastic! Gotta love the bellydancing!
Food: Very good portions, very tasty, good variety. Service- efficient. Ambiance: small and intimate. My second favorite Greek Restaurant. (first being takis taverna)
