About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
  • Good for groups
Thomas Makris, from the Island of Skopelos, fell in love when he met Helen Babalos. They met at Orestes Greek restaurant in 1974, while on a Greek dancing tour of North America. Soon after their marriage, they had a vision to open a place like no other in Vancouver; a Greek restaurant where everyone is family; where everyone receives a consistent experience created by delicious homemade authentic food and impeccable service. In 1984 they opened Anatoli Souvlaki in north Vancouver. In 2011 their sons Alexi and Iani took over the restaurant and early 2015 they expanded on their parents original dream, in a new venture with their cousin Daniel Bergman, Alexi and Iani opened ‘The Greek by Anatoli’ in Yaletown. ‘The Greek by Anatoli’ focuses on small share plates or “mezze”.

    Our recent visit to The Greek By Anatoli - Yaletown was marred by several issues, though our server was a bright spot. Despite having a table reservation, the hostess refused to seat us near the window, claiming that table was already reserved—oddly, as OpenTable doesn’t allow specific table selections. Frustratingly, the window table we requested sat empty throughout our meal and remained unoccupied when we left. After a lengthy wait, our roast lamb dish arrived cold, with the lamb dry, which made the accompanying rice unpleasantly dry as well. The roast potatoes disappointed, (tasting more like boiled potatoes) left sitting too long. Additionally, the price has increased, the roasted vegetables we enjoyed have been removed, and a Greek salad has been substituted in their place. On a positive note, our server was attentive, friendly, and professional, providing a glimmer of excellence in an otherwise lackluster experience. I hope the restaurant addresses these issues for future diners.
