It was a special day, we were celebrating friend's 80th birthday! Tzatziki with pita & olives were great as appetizer, the red wine from Crete was very enjoyable along with the selection of freshly prepared Greek food - seafood, chicken and spano with Greek salad....It was an enjoyable evening on the Patio and look forward to visiting again in the future.More

Nice small place in suburbs. Chicken souvlaki was good - portion was a little small - came with roasted potatoes instead of greek potatoes - little disappointed in that. Beef souvlaki was excellent. Souvlakis come with potato, mixed veg and rice. I asked for no...rice and extra potato - received 1 extra potato. Salads were nice and fresh. Gnocchi was nice and soft. Saganaki was good - one wasn't flaming though- served with pita instead of garlic bread. Service was good. Costco has discount gift cards. Prices are moderate.More

We went to this restaurant for the first time. They have a nice patio setup to enjoy the dinner outside. Unfortunately, it rained so had to move inside. We had a good choice of Greek appetizers followed by main course along with Greek white wine...from Crete. Good attentive service and food - plenty of choices from the menu. Recommended.More

Today was a special day. Fifteen years ago I had a stroke that didn't kill me. This is a day to celebrate. Add to that my daughter graduated and got her first job this week. I chose to get dinner from Pinelopi's and they did...not disappoint on this very special day. We had the beef souvlaki for two and it was wonderful.More

Went for dinner here with my wife. Nice atmosphere. The waiter was very attentive and informative. We decided to order several appetizers as their main course servings looked huge. With 3 apps and a shared Greek salad is was more than enough and it all...tasted great! Also they made me a custom martini and did a good job! Definitely try this place if you want a Greek experience in Ottawa.More

In a small strip mall on Strandherd, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff, great lunch menu, had the chicken souvlaki on skewers, very tasty, comes with some cheese, Greek salad and rice. Loved it!

Small, cosy with modern decor. I had the sirloin steak and it was perfectly cooked. Potatoes were sliced thin and fried to perfection with just the right seasoning. My wife had scallops and shrimp which she enjoyed. Service is attentive and professional. Recommended reservations as...good places like this fill up fast.More

Visiting family in Ottawa, my sister-in-law suggested we have dinner at Pinelop's. Luckily we made a reservation; the restaurant was very busy on a Friday evening. The outside is very unassuming but the interior just lovely. The staff are very attentive and knowledgeable about the...menu. We all chose different starters and enjoyed all of them. Recommend the Toasted Goat Cheese salad and the Keftedes. Entrees were again all unique; the menu is so interesting it is difficult to decide what to have. My sister-in-law always orders the chicken souvaki and raves about the rice. I had the lamb chops and really enjoyed the veggies and potatoes. Brother enjoyed the Exohiko and husband the evening special. Save room for dessert and order the vanilla kadaifi. Great evening! I am sorry we live so far away, but the next time we visit Ottawa I would definitely return.More

Don’t let the location deter you. Food was just delish. Service excellent. I would even venture to say best calimari I’ve ever had — light and tender.

Best service in the city. Andreas was attentive and knowledgeable. Food was outstanding, we all loved our dinner. Dessert just as good. Atmosphere was wonderful. Excellent first time experience, will be back.

We took some friends to Pinelopi's the other night. It was their first visit and they loved it! I know I review a lot and I do that because my comments are well deserved by Penny and her wonderful staff. My husband had his usual...mezza dinner and I once again had the Spaghettini Poseidon with the Alfredo sauce. That dish is just amazing. Our friends had the Arctic Char and the lamb chops. Both pronounced their meals excellent. Dessert was Vanilla Kadaifi for the guys, backlava for his wife and creme brule for me. It's not only that the food is comfort food, it's that the whole atmosphere is one of comfort. Joey, once again, took excellent care of us. Michael did the honours at the bar (mixes a mean martini!!!) and we even got a hug from Sue who wasn't even serving our section that evening. We hadn't seen these friends of ours for almost a year and sharing a meal at Pinelopi's was a perfect way to reconnect. Penny, sorry we missed you and thank you for the excellent gigantes!More

Back to Pinelopis to celebrate another family event. We had great service from Christo - welcoming, upbeat, and attentive. Our salads - the Pinelopis Greek Salad and the Warm Goat Cheese salad were enormous, packed with great stuff and very tasty. Entrees - Thalassina souvlaki...and Exohito were delicious. The Exohito is just amazing - my favourite dish anywhere. Dessert was great - lovely tiramisu trifle and the ever delicious and creamy Vanilla Kadaifi. A fantastic meal and we can’t wait to go back!More
