Business: Socrates Greek Taverna Restaurant Review

By on November 27, 2012

By Sher Boudreau. The taste, sights and sounds of Greece come alive in Socrates Greek Taverna Restaurant in Maple Ridge , British Columbia.

With a fabulous menu and friendly staff like ‘Maggie’, Socrates is a great place
for an intimate dinner for two or a family outing. The authentic music from Greece
adds to the enjoyment of the dining experience.

If you choose to start off your dinner with an appetizer, I suggest a plate of
‘Keftedes’ (a Greek style meatball that is to die for) which is served with fresh
tzatziki and hot pita bread and a wedge of lemon. If fish is more your style,
try starting off with a plate of calamari or ‘Shrimp A la Pana’ (tiger prawns in
marinara sauce).

Entrees are both traditional and they also serve some Italian and ‘Canadiana’
dishes. I highly recommend the lamp chops. Served with potatoes, rice and
Greek salad. For $17.95, it’s a bargain. For the hungry man, nothing hits the spot
like their ‘Greek Style Ribs’ (pork ribs that are seasoned and cooked to fall off the
bone perfection). For the non meat eaters, Socrates has a myriad of seafood
dishes and a fantastically filling Veggie Plate (potatoes, rice and Greek salad).

To accompany your meal, Socrates has several beers and wines available as
well as the non alcoholic normalities.

Of course, no dinner is ever complete without dessert and Socrates presents
some of the richest, most decadent desserts Maple Ridge has. From the
traditional Baklava to the light but still opulent Mango berry Cheesecake.

Socrates offers both dine in and take out as well as limited delivery (with
minimum purchase). Reservations aren’t always necessary but I do recommend
them for a special evening or on the weekend when they are quite busy.
