Description
Greek, family, casual dining, vegeterian
Come and experience a taste of Greece! We can accommodate groups of up to 130. Take-out and catering also available. Popular spot for those attending shows at The Centre In The Square and Registry Theatre. Attending a show? We validate parking for our customers. Ask us how. Reservations highly reccommended on show nights. Angelo & Doxa immigrated to Canada from the island of Krete. In 1996, they decided that Kitchener needed a Greek dining experience where customers would feel welcome and a part of the family in warm, casual atmosphere. Soon after, the Three Kretans were born. Named after their 3 sons - Gus, Zack, and Niko - they succeeded in bringing the tastes of their native Greece back to KW. With fresh ingredients and traditional Greek dishes and desserts prepared daily, Three Kretans has established itself as being Kitchener-Waterloo's Premiere Authentic Greek restaurant for over 15 years. OPA!!!

Honestly. I was tentative to try Greek food, I am usually not someone who is adventurous. However, this is the best food I have had in a LONG time. My husband and I could not stop commenting on how delicious the food was. Not only is the food amazing, fantastic, no complaints whatsoever! The dining experience is intimate and inviting. I love that the decor is Greek it just adds to the entire authentic feeling.
We also had amazing service, a special shout out to our waitress Claudia, she was a gem! Fantastic food, fantastic dining experience, and great service. It's rare to have ALL three! Three Kretans has it! Check it out!!

Visited your restaurant last night for the first time - didn't even realize that you had a bellydancer performing, and had no reservation, however the pleasant hostess whom I think was the owner, whisked us off and managed to find a table for us. We had such a wonderful time, from the service, to the amazing food, and fantastic atmosphere! Did I mention the amazing food? Truley authentic Greek cuisine. The lamb chops were the best I have had in a while! The bellydancing performance was just icing on the cake! Thank you for such a wonderful evening! We will return.

My wife and I are a huge fan of Greek food and ate here for the first time recently.

The Good
-The staff was amazing! We could not ask for better or friendlier service.

The Okay
-We eat a lot of Chicken Souvlaki dinners and love Greek Salad's. Unfortunately this one was just okay compared to other establishments in KW. Maybe this was more authentic but were not impressed.

I visited this restaurant for dinner with my wife on the reccommendation of my pastor. The restaurant itself was a little tricky to find, but very clean and accommodating. The service was excellent and we ordered a dinner for two that had a great variety of lamb, pork chicken and other Greek dishes. Our lamb chops were exceptional - seasoned and cooked perfectly. The rest of the meal superb! Desserts - majority homemade, were delicious. A pleasant surprise,a nd great to have in Kitchener.

    I had heard great things about Three Kretans, so my wife and I along with two other couples decided to visit the restaurant this past weekend. Now I am wondering where all the great reviews came from. Did we eat at the same restaurant? Did they have an off night? The food was mediocre at best. The chicken and pork souvlaki, lamb and gyro were all over cooked and dried out. The service was OK but not stellar. It's a shame since the location (within walking distance to Center in the Square) is very convenient. Given the rave reviews we all expected much more from this restaurant.

    First time visiting your wonderful spot. Our server [ Rebecca ] is MARVELOUS and empty dishes did not have time to cool before they were wisked of our table. My lamb chops were perfectly rare, as ordered, saganaki not disappointing. Will definitely return. Thanks, Cathy

    The food was wonderful and the wait staff was very attentive.



    2009-02-05 02:50:07

    Best Greek in KW!


    2009-02-05 02:50:07

    Best Greek that I have had in a while! Even the ribs are fantastic. Huge portion of chicken souvlaki!



    2009-02-05 02:50:07

    This is the best Greek food I have had in a long time! If I could, I would go everyday!! If you can't decide what to order, I reccomend their island combo! Lamb chops, garlic shrimp, and I can't remeber what else ebcause I scarfed it down so fast. It was fantastic! Can't wait to go there again!!!


    2009-02-05 02:50:07

    Wow, I haven't had Greek food this good in a long time. It was great, the service was great and I loved the atmosphere. I highly reccomend it. Better than other Greek restaurants in KW handsdown.


    2009-02-05 02:50:07

    the food was great and the service was even better. Not to mention that waiter Niko. What a cutie!!!


    2009-02-05 02:50:07

    Always an excellent meal. Huge portions too! We've been there about seven or eight times in the last 3 years and we always look forward to each return. The food is always excellent. The staff have always been very cheerful and friendly as well as attentive and helpful. When it's slow (i.e. Monday nights for example) you can often get into lengthy conversations with the owner, her son Niko, or the wait staff.

    AWESOME!!!



    2009-02-05 02:50:07

    Best lamb and baklava I have ever eaten )


    2009-02-05 02:50:07

    I love going my friends for dinner. They have nice wine, great food, and the service is always good. I can't wait to go to one of their Greek theme nights. I heard it's a blast!


    2009-02-05 02:50:07

    Had dinner there a few days ago, and everything was great as always. The lamb was cooked to perfection, and the baklava was fresh and absolutely amazing. I think they have the best Greek food in the KW area. THe owners and staff are very nice, and I always feel taken care of when I dine there.


    2009-02-05 02:50:07

    Great place for business lunches. I just went last week, and I will definitely return. Food was really good, and so was the service. I now have a new place to take my clients because I have never been disappointed.


    2009-02-05 02:50:07

    I visited the restaurant for Valentine's day - but the day after and they were very busy. However, everything was still great! My wife and I took some friends and we shared a dinner for two platter. It was perfect. There was a lot of variety and it was a huge portion. We even got dessert with it - but took one of them home because it was so much food. Our friends had the ribs, lamb chops and the roast lamb special. Rave reviews on both! Everything was timed perfectly, our server was very knowledgeable and outgoing and one of the owners also checked on us to make sure our visit was enjoyable. Our waitress was also one of the owners wives which was nice. Great job!


    2009-02-05 02:50:07

    Frequent the restaurant at least once a week for lunch because I work in the area, and I have never had a bad experience. Even when it is crazy busy, the food still is great and comes out hot and the staff remain on top of things. I have even taken friends for dinner, and loved their dinner menu, the service and that atmosphere. Great restaurant overall!


    2009-02-05 02:50:07

    OPA!!! Great restaurant!! Excellent food, staff and atmosphere. We will return!!!


    2009-01-03 01:07:24

    I dined to three kretans on business while staying at the Delta hotel downtown Kitchener with some colleagues, who have all travelled to Greece, and the food made us feel like we were in Greece all over again. The food was amazing and the staff were more than accomodating. The mousakka and the spanikopita where more delicious than i experienced in greece. When we return to Kitchener next time, the first restaurant i visit will be three kretans! Don't forget to order saganaki, because it is heavenly!


    2008-09-25 16:15:32

    Great place for lunch! Fast friendly service and great food! Now have our monthly lunch meetings there. Very courteous staff!


    2008-02-15 05:01:29

    Took my girlfriend there for a romantic dinner - she loves Greek food. We had such a great time. The food was amazing, the place is very cute, and the service was seamless. Great job Three Kretans, we are looking forward to bringing some friends the next time we dine!


    2007-12-01 20:31:16

    I can't comment on most of the menu items because I always order the same thing spanakopita to start, gyro dinner as my meal, and backlava for dessert! There's nothing super fancy with the food presentation or restaurant decor, but the food has always been tasty and very filling, and the service is consistantly good. If you're looking for a casual family dining spot, this place fits the bill.


    2007-07-29 19:42:20

    I love this place. I always try something different, and there has not been one thing that I haven't enjoyed off the menu yet! They make such amazing food and you can tell that the staff and owners really care for their customers. Well done!


    2007-07-07 14:32:43

    Fabulous! What great Greek food. Lamb chops were amazing, tender and tasty. Thanks to our waitress Gena for the reccommendation. We will return!


    2007-07-04 20:50:53

    Love this place. Have been going since they opened (over 10 years?) The food is always so good, the staff friendly and courteous. Never been disappointed, great owners. Keep up the good work!!!


    2007-06-15 22:45:58

    Great Greek food, excellent service, fair prices. One of my favourites in KW and I take friends there all the time!
