"With a trifecta of locations in Montreal, Dollard-des-Ormeaux and Laval, Marathon’s namesake dish isn’t the only reason it’s earned heaps of accolades and praise from locals and media alike. First opened in 1977, this franchise’s generously portioned platters of gyros, souvlaki, lamb chops, and spanakopita have made it an anchored local institution wherever it’s landed." - JP Karwacki
