Feature Review  
 

A very pleasant space to eat and relax, Socrates Greek Taverna welcomes you with its abundance of live plants, hardwood floors, and original art mural adorning one wall. Our  table had 10 people, and we dined quite late (around 8pm on a Tuesday night) so we pretty much had the restaurant to ourselves. Located very close to SFU, this restaurant packs great value for the dollar for hungry university students, but is also regularly frequented by large private banquets due to its ample space. Compared with other Greek restaurants in the area, Socrates prices are noticeably lower, and yet the quality of the food was not lacking. Definitely make Socrates Greek Taverna your dining destination if you're in the mood for some really mouth-watering flavours but don't want to break the bank.

Ortikia (Quail)

"Two quails seasoned with herbs & spices & then broiled. Served with Greek salad, rice, roasted potatoes, tzatziki & pita bread." ($12.95)

Quail had excellent seasonings, however it was frustrating to eat because of all the bones.

Greek Salad (side dish)

Quite a large and nicely presented salad for a side dish.

Included with the Veal Parmesan (pictured below).

Tasted very fresh - the feta cheese was not too strong.

Veal Parmesan.

"Tender veal cutlet topped with sauce, melted mozzarella & parmesan cheese. Served with roasted potatoes & rice or spaghetti, salad & garlic bread." ($12.95)

Cheese and veal were tender and bursting with flavor.

This came with the Greek Salad shown above (the lettuce pictured was just a garnish).
