On our way home to Kootenays from Vancouver Island. Stopped in Abbotsford for the night and decided to treat ourselves. Looked at local restaurants and their reviews and settled on Greek Islands Restaurant on South Fraser Way. Sorry, this meal was absolutely terrible. We ordered...take out and I felt obliged to include a tip when I paid for the meal. Had we eaten in we would have sent the food back. Two souvlaki dinners and a dolmades appy. One chicken and one lamb. The lamb was nice and cooked appropriately, but everything else was not good. Chicken was super dry and had no flavour. Rice had no flavour, very bland. No, we don't have Covid, our taste buds are just fine. We got 1 piece of pita bread for two people (half each) ... maybe that's all you're supposed to get. Greek salad had no feta and one kalamata olive, and some funky dressing that tasted store bought. I suppose there are different versions of greek salad, but this was one of the worst I've ever had. Did I mention that the chicken was dry. Left a bad taste in our mouth. Dolmades really didn't have much flavour either and the lemon dill sauce didn't seem to work. We ended up eating the lamb and throwing most of the rest of the meal out. All in all, I wouldn't go back. Wish we had spent $15 on fast food instead of $75 on this. This restaurant seems to have high reviews so we definitely expected better and maybe that's one reason we were so disappointed.More
