Megas

402 Danforth Av
(416) 466-7771

Loud and crowded, located right on the Danforth near Chester subway station, this large spacious restaurant serves up traditional Greek fare. Trendy and hip, with young beautiful people, all dressed up, expect crowds and noise on the weekend. The decor is tasteful and not kitschy. The menu is vast and there are about 4-5 vegetarian selections. I had the spanakopita dinner with vegetables and Greek salad. Appetizers are between $5.95-$8.95. and entrees are between $9.95-$16.95. There does not seem to be a drink menu, as soda pop is not advertised but you can order non-alcoholic beverages. Contains a vast wine list. Patrons can dress up or be casual. Place is family friendly but most people are couples, singles, and groups. Summer terrace large and spacious. I went with a few friends and this was my first time, but two of them come in from Montreal and Ottawa specially to eat on the Danforth and they choose Megas for their fresh food, nice presentation, and normal prices. Spanakopita is slightly greasy, just wipe with your napkin. Free butter beans as an introductory appetizer. Bread w/ butter is white and caky (don’t eat it, wait for the main course)
