Not so friendly service did not enjoy our food was not authentic Greek and very disappointed will not eat at this restaurant again which is too bad it looks like a nice atmosphere from outside.
Why is this place still in business? Only reason is because its the only Greek sit down restaurant around and looks good from far. Durham has really c@!%!y greek food. They dont need good food simply because there is no competition. Vegetables are the noname frozen garbage and they are not even seasoned. People who tell you they like this place have never tasted good greek food.
I have only eaten from here once & will not be back. So let's make this as short & sweet as possible.
I ordered takeout, came to pick it up about 10-15 minutes after ordering it. It wasn't ready. I had to wait another ten minutes or so to get my food. Finally got my food, took it home & everything was gross. Over salted or over cooked. The whole meal was just gross. I've never been back. I...

I'm not one to slam a business, because I believe in local business. However, this was some terrible food. I ordered take out (same comments as before, I was redirected to a different entrance for takeout), and got the salmon. At $17 for the entrée with sides, I'd expect a half decent meal. I was SO disappointed. The salmon was terribly dry, and tasted like freezer burn. The vegetables that... more
Where to begin really? You're greeted by a scowling hostess when you come in and treated as if you're the last person she wanted to see that day. You're then shown to your seat, a sunbleached plastic booth with a stained table.
After some room temperature water, if you're lucky, someone might come and take your order. No mention of specials, no recommendations, just a notepad and monosyllabic...

We ordered take out and when we arrived to pick up our order, we were told that there was a separate entrance for take out and that we would have to leave the restaurant and go around the corner to the take out section. It wasn't a big deal but I thought it was a rather arduous way of doing business since there didn't seem to be a lot of patrons in the restaurant or at the take out area. Oh... more
This restaurant closed and is now operating as Milo's Greek Restaurant.
Not the best, but not the worst. I've ordered a couple things I will never order again most notably the lamb ( dry ..dry...dry)... but it wasn't inedible. I would never take a greek friend here, I'd be embarrassed...but when I'm hungry for something kinda greek-ish I'll go here.
Great greek food I'm greek and eat it all the time and I love it so good greek food love to see this place open for a long time great food.
this is now a franchise Milos Greek. previous reviews probably refer to the old family run bus.
we were the only customers at 9pm (this should have been a red flag) service is awful, they just loiter around and ignore the customer even though there is no other customer and there is nothing to do. we had to wait 20min...

I grew up on Greek food, and my husband adores it.
I don't believe the food here is as fresh as some of the more upscale restaurants on the Danforth are, but there are positive qualities in this restaurant.
The grilled calamari is firm, tasty and not rubbery.
The Gyro is not as salty as any other Greek restaurant I've...

From someone that has grown up on the Danforth and me being Greek I think I should know Greek food. I went there yesterday with my girlfriend and I ordered the typical Pork souvlaki dinner and she had the Calamari dinner. In one work I would describe the food as "EXCELLANT” This food is comparable to the best Greek restaurants... more
If you are looking for a Greek restaurant in Pickering...look no further! Milos Greek restaurant (Previously, The Friendly Greek) has the best Greek food in Durham Region!
My wife had the Large Greek souvlaki dinner and I had the large Gyro's dinner. Your dinner comes with a Greek salad and all you can eat garlic and pita bread. You dip...

How very unfortunate....
That's really the only way to start this re-review. A friend and I went for dinner last night and since I wanted to try this place out again and she was feeling like greek food, we decided to head down to Milos. We got there around 7:30 and it wasn't busy at all, two other tables and I think one of them was family members of the owners or something.
Wanting to try...

There is something about this place that spoils it slightly. The decor looks nice but the place is like an echo chamber. Noise from everything in the restaurant seems to vibrate 'til the noise becomes annoying. The food is plenty for almost anyone but the wait between the starter salad and entree was pitifully long. So much so that our... more
This restaurant is since a while known under a different name Milos (same people are working there)
We would consider ourselves regulars guests and we always enjoy the nice atmosphere, although I do find the tables may be a bit too close to each other and the music is a tad too loud, but that depends on how many people...

Love the Mousakka here. It was creamy and soft, generous portion given. The salad I got with the meal was light and crispy as well.
The Spinach/Artichoke dip appetizer was one of the best myself and my parents ever had which was surprising. Usually they all resemble every other restaurants.
Make sure you have the Caramel Crunch for dessert too, that was a win ending to my dinner.
The staff...

Milo's has become one of my favorite Greek restaurants!
I've been here several times and each visit was superb. The restaurant has a Santorini island vibe in and out and it's pretty cozy and spacious inside with lots of Greek decor and tall windows brining in tons of sunshine.
The staff here is friendly and provide great service. The menu has a wide variety of yummy options. They offer...

From the outside the place looks like it might be good. The atmosphere inside is nice as well but the food to me tasted no different than packaged Greek food you can get at the grocery store and cook at home in a fly pan. The fountain pop was watered down too what a horrible way to try and cut costs.
Being half-Greek, I have to say that this place really isn't that amazing or authentic when it comes to Greek food (but really, what do you expect from a franchise located in Pickering?). There are a few vegetarian options (the typical ones in Greek cuisine) but all of them are quite plain. The tiropita I've had here has varied a lot... sometimes it's dry, sometimes it's way too greasy. The... more
WORST Greek restaurant in the GTA.
Since when is a toasted hot dog bun acceptable with your greek salad appetizer? This should have been the first warning that the main course would be equally appalling...
No apology and no discount offered. It's clear that the management of this establishment has no love for food or their customers.
Avoid at all costs!
Disgusting food not fresh ingredients, service not good either
service was slow but food was ok
Very good greek and good service!
