Greek
Thomas Makris, from the Island of Skopelos, fell in love when he met Helen Babalos. They met at Orestes Greek restaurant in 1974, while on a Greek dancing tour of North America. Soon after their marriage, they had a vision to open a place like no other in Vancouver; a Greek restaurant where everyone is family; where everyone receives a consistent experience created by delicious homemade authentic food and impeccable service. In 1984 they opened Anatoli Souvlaki in north Vancouver. In 2011 their sons Alexi and Iani took over the restaurant and early 2015 they expanded on their parents original dream, in a new venture with their cousin Daniel Bergman, Alexi and Iani opened ‘The Greek by Anatoli’ in Yaletown. ‘The Greek by Anatoli’ focuses on small share plates or “mezze”.

    Delicious food overall except for the grilled squid which was mushy in texture. Everything else was great including the service.

    Would really like to thank the manager for going out of the way to make sure our special evening was great! My mom wasn't happy with her meal and they gave her a new one, comped it and gave us free wine. Mine and my boyfriends meal were delicious, it wasn't too loud and just a nice place to have dinner! And also really impressed by all the vegan nut free options. Thanks again :)

    The food and service was good. But the music was way too loud. It was difficult to have an enjoyable experience when the music was unbearably loud.

    Amazing experience, as usual! Our favourites are the saganaki, calamari and country lamb, which were delicious as always. We tried the sampoukos Collins and a couple of the non alcoholic beverages, which were very nice. Our server was very attentive and super friendly. Can’t wait come back!

    Everything from the gorgeous outside patio ambience, attentive staff, delicious food and wine with a very reasonable pay check at the end. Highly recommend this spot, I will be back for sure! (PS I visited on a Tuesday night and they had 40% off house wine bottles - bargain!)

    Great food. Great service. Great prices. Insanely loud. Needs some sound dampeners. Pillows perhaps? And can the canned music. Things are loud enough.

    Always a great space and food! Some wine wasn’t available but it didn’t distract from a great list of other options. And they were willing to adjust cocktails to taste while still maintaining the integrity of the drink. The platters are always a hit and it’s always fun to see what the tables around you order too to get ideas!

    It is Greek inspired food not to be confused with Greek cuisine Lack of cucumber chunks and oregano does not make a Greek restaurant However….the overall concept is great even if they are relying on a watered down version

    We like to go Anatoli in Lonsdale. This time we tried Yaletown just before a Lionel Richie concert. Anatoli consistently has great food, great service, and nice friendly atmosphere. Prices are reasonable too. Definitely recommend Anatoli at any of it's locations.
