Montreal's Best Souvlaki Vol IV: Villa du Souvlaki
I've been negliecting my souvlaki reviews for a while, so I thought I'd stop by an old favourite of mine, Villa du Souvlaki on Sherbrooke St. in NDG. This is one of the few souvlaki joints in town that isn't a chain and it regularly makes the Mirror's Top 5 list. The place offers typical greek/souvlaki menu, no alcohol, and a friendly family-type service.
Meat: Very nice texture and flavour. This one doesn't have that home-grilled taste that some do, so slightly disapointing in that light, but a very nice chunk of meat just the same.
Tsatziki Sauce: Nice creamy texture with a hint of .... hmmm, I'm going to guess oregano but I'm not very good at blind-identifying spices. Still a unique sauce that has a conservative garlic kick and excellent texture.
Extras: I dropped the ball here and was in a hurry. I didn't take any extras. Everything LOOKED good though!
I highly recommend this souvlaki, but I am a bit biased. This has been my favourite neighbourhood joint for several years. I also am partial to places that are not chains.
