Good greek option in Burnaby heights. Family run restaurant with typical Greek decor. I came here for lunch on a Saturday and sadly it was so not busy, only 4 tables. I had the lamb souvlaki and it tasted really good. The service was good and friendly.
Ended up at Sfinaki Greek Taverna for lunch one day and were pleasantly surprised with the great food on offer. The appetizer plates were generous and the pita bread kept on coming. The chicken souvlaki that I had was really tender and tasty and the Greek potatoes were incredible! Head into Sfinaki Greek Taverna for great Greek food!
