A Great Greek Restaurant
The Kalamata Greek Restaurant, near the
corner of Cambie and Broadway in Vancouver, is my favourite Greek-style
restaurant. My family loves to eat the many dishes, including souvlaki,
humous, Greek salad and more. To judge a Greek restaurant, the quality
of the calamari is most important and at Kalamata the quality is
excellent. The batter is light, the spicing is perfect, and the deep
frying is just right. Be careful, however, because the portions are
huge, so don’t order too much food. In addition, the retsina is
lightly flavoured of pine tar and served at the best and coldest
temperature. The service is quite good overall, but the servers can
sometimes be busy and getting the bill requires some patience. As far as
the ambiance is concerned, the restaurant is very clean, though a bit
noisy due to the hardwood floors. The best thing for me as a family man,
is that it is relatively inexpensive to eat there for four. Usually my
bill is about eighty to ninety dollars, including wine and a 15% tip. If
you decide to go, The Kalamata is suitable for families and groups and
celebrations as big as twelve people or so. I highly recommend this
restaurant to anyone who likes Greek style food.
