Magic Spot Grill — Restaurant in Toronto

Was our fav. spot for many years until the ownership changed. I went back few times, not the same. Then was there few days ago and was upset the taste of chicken souvlaki was changed, pretty bland. There was no Greek taste of lemon, garlic and special Greek spices such as oregano. What frustrated me and felt insulted when I asked if the previous owner was still operating, I was told he makes all the skewers downstairs and they're still around. Let me tell you one thing Peter the previous owner will never cut corners or change the taste of the food, I can tell it's not his doing. The facts, my take out food was put in a reused plastic bag that smelled like curry. All the way home as I was driving, I was like what's that smell in my car, where did that come from. I get home and open the bag reeked and when I got the souvlaki dinner, the garlic dip was placed inside the hot souvlaki container, the dip melted and smelled bad. COLD stuff should be packaged with salad, cold only. The chicken was dry and tasted like it was boiled, they only grill it in front of you, I'm pretty sure it's boiled first. No consistency at all.

The problem with any restaurants that I had witnessed in the past 15 years when they change management under East Indians, the quality of food gets bad and the smell of curry & onions is everywhere. I've witnessed Subway, Chinese food, American, Greek or what ever, as soon as East Indian takes over, things go south pretty quickly. E. Indians should stick to their own food, they're good at it, quite frankly, I love E. Indian food, but not when they take over a different ethnicity, they destroy it including pizza.

Facts of life. I'm not going back to Magic Spot cuz it...

Unfortunately I did not see the value of eating here... I was dissatisfied a couple years back and decided to try again only to be disappointed again!...... Shame on me, ya ! I know

Maybe this will help them get past their idea that they offer value...

• Their salad over salted which wilted the lettuce. tip: let people salt their own salad keeps it fresher •The large portion of anything should feed at least 4 people by min standard not 2 •burger really lacking since when did mayonnaise become a standard topping on burgers. Maybe their trying to copy Big Mac? and the patty blah! Burgers are charred, this one with shredded lettuce and 2 tablespoons of mayo made it gross and patty slipped out of soggy bun! •rice tasted like something stale very bad tasting not sure if it was day old rice soup or their bouillon or flavoring or something was expired. It was awful (threw it out) •Souvlaki on a bun was not cut in half.... Portion of tomatoes and onion diced to imperfection nothing traditionally Greek here.... • And lastly! not one napkin in the bag... not! one ketchup or pepper or salt/vinegar to garnish the rings or fries. How cheap is that!! You think after all the alike reviews the owner would make some changes.... At this point it's just stealing.

No thank you magic spot , there won't be a third for me.... Replies...
