SOUVLAKI MENU - Colossus Greek Taverna (Oakville)
SOUVLAKI DINNER PACKAGE
Choice of Chicken or Pork, 1x 7oz Stick or 2x 3.5oz Sticks. Served with Lemon Potatoes, Rice Pilaf, Greek Salad, Tzatziki and Pita
Service is very professional, from greeter to server. Food quality is high, very fresh. Portions are generous. Overall, this night, all the dishes had too much oil. Examples: Greek salad comes in a medium-size straight-sided bowl that was half-full of oil (Olive, I hoped). That's way too much. Same with the fish -- the platter was covered in oil, but the fish certainly didn't need it and it spoiled the bed of overcooked spinach. By the way, the fresh fish is served Greek style (whole), so be aware if you have a problem with eyeballs in your food. That was fine with me, and it was delicious. The fresh fish is served Tues., Weds. and Thurs. nights, apparantly brought in fresh each day. There's a varied an interesting menu, and I plan to return, but first, I'd ask to have no oil added to any of my orders.

The food and the service and food were terrific! However, there was a very drunk table full of bankers that disturbed our meal. If it were not for the fact that one of the younger bankers was extremely handsome, sophisticated and suave I may not want to return. Overall, the experience was above average.

Instead of what I expected (a slice of pie-sized piece of spanakotiropita) I was presented with a plate piled with potatoes, rice and salad and about 5-6 frozen appetizer type things that I guess were supposed to be spanakotiropita sprinkled on top. I was so disappointed I was almost not able to eat. I almost complained but as it wasn't the waitresses fault and it wasn't likely that I would be given a real piece of spanakotiropita, I decided it wasn't worth it.
And by the way, I'm Greek, have lots of Greek relatives who make excellent spanakotiropita and have eaten it Greece as well. I know what it's supposed to be like. Cheap frozen appetizers may satisfy some people but this was truly one of the most disappointing meals I've eaten at a restaurant in a long time. I'll stick to the Plum Tomato when I'm eating out in Oakville from now on.
Found the salad,potatoes,rice to much on one plate plus the Lamb Souvlaki was over cooked and very dry. Maybe some sauce to dip it in would help.
We 4 ladies visit a different restaurant every month and I do the write up on them all and we were all in agrreement not to return.
Our table was very small for the large plates served on our unbalanced table that kept moving.
Our waiter was great and the atmosphere was very nice.
