Beautiful cuts of meat there. I love the place!!
I have been coming here for years. Service is always fast and friendly, no matter how busy it is. The meat is always fresh and perfect for any meal you wish to prepare. Their dips are incredible, I'll buy the tubs of tzatziki and at least one tub of all the others. You'll find just about everything you'll need to make a great meal. And for dessert just pop in next door to their bakery. I can't recommend anything because everything I've tried has been awesome.
Great place best in the city
Great place for steaks!
Not the friendliest of staff kinda over priced for the quality.dont know if I'd go back
Awesome place
Their chicken skewers and tzaziki is ????
A great selection of Greek meats and products! If you are looking for pulses or pastas that are unique to the Greek cuisine, this is a great place to supply your pantry for key ingredients. It also has a large number of sweets like honey, fruit preserves and pudding powders.
Great selection of fresh meat products at a very reasonable price ,they also have other products of Greek nature and not only. Plenty of free parking and they have a fresh bakery next door where you can pick up some of rhe most famous greek deserts.
This is like a trip to Greece, the foods here are mostly imported. From Greek Feta to Kalamata olives, Xopio Olive Oil that you can't compare it to anything. They also sell souvlaki or kebobs from chicken, beef, park and others. Steaks , fish and much more. Easy free parking. A MUST SEE AND TRY!
Bought baby goat meat. Best meat shop ever.
Best meats in Scarborough. Ask for the feta in the barrel.
Friendly, fast, and great quality meats.
Great people . Very kind and helpful . Very good service ????. They know what you need .
Very good quality and fresh meats, a rich variety of Mediterranean products from Greece, olives, olive oils, feta cheese etc Love the new extension The bakery with so many Greek traditional sweets.
This is such a legit butcher. Excellent selection of all meats, spices, oil, olives, bread. Amazing Greek Tzatziki. Great staff
The best souvlaki and that tzatziki in the city and fair prices for great cuts of meat.
The absolute best berrale Greek feta in the city, also has a good selection Greek cheeses, dry food's, Greek olive oil of the highest quality the meats are also very good.
Friendly staff, fresh meat products and most important that have everything you're looking for.
Best meat in the city
Good selection of meats, spreads and Greek food items. Their lamb souvlaki is great to BBQ. Love this place.
Toronto's best tzatziki!
We enjoyed the products we bought from this market. Thanks
Love this place.... excellent meat and excellent service
Awesome greek bakery with original spanakopita
Local butcher shop catering to authentic Greek items. Family owned.
Very good service. I like having an European grocery in town.
Great fresh Greek food & butcher store. A wide variety of fresh meats, cheeses, Olives and preprepared foods and Greek delicacies...fantastic.
Great products!
If you are looking for Greek non perishables then this is your place. Great selection of cheese, pasta, beans, etc. Imported. However if you are looking for the best meat then I would recommend "The Butcher Shop" at Kingston and Markham. You need to go there to see the difference. Kosta's is still ok but for serious meat I highly recommend elsewhere (The Butcher Shop!).
Always great food.
Kostas offers quality meats at prices that beat other grocery stores. The service of the staff is excellent as they aim to fulfill your request relating to how you like your meats as to cut or preferred method. The souvlaki and tzatziki are recommended. $$
Absolutely the best place to get your meat in the city. The tzatziki here is to die for along with the souvlaki. Head across to the bakery and get a magical coffee and a sugar donut and your set. 10/10 would recommend to everyone. Will only get my meat here from now on.
Best meat in the city better yet in the world Go Greece
Best in town!
Butchers should not pass off a substitute in order to make a sale! I asked the counter clerk for pancetta and he asks the butcher/cutter in the back, who says no, we have pork belly. I say no thanks, who then suddenly says he does have pancetta, but has to go to the back and get it and cut. I find out after I get home, he just gave me the pork belly, that I already declined.
A shop for meat lovers.
AMAIZING DEALS... NoFrills is always sold out and uses anorexic chickens. For the same price at Kostas I got like 4 times more chicken. AMAZING for BBQ and whatever else. Place is cheap and very good quality. I am now going to be a new regular customer. ***** A+
Great meat market! Original Greek delicatessen too!
Great store and staff. The products are awesome. I love the bacon and beef sausages.
Editing my original review. I've been coming here for quite some time to exclusively purchase my chicken. I spend $300 a month minimum for chicken that isn't always fresh as it is sometimes discoloured with dark grey fat. Customer service and retaining customers is the last thing these guys care about, so I will take my money elsewhere. Staff also do not wear masks which is quite filthy.
Amazing local butcher. The prices are great along with the meat selection and quality. My go-tos are the beef Kebab and any souvlaki mainly lamb. Come here for good meat and homemade feta. Their in-house sauces need to be purchased at least once.
The souvlaki is perfectly seasoned and tastes amazing. The staff is great - if you've never cooked their preseasoned meats, they are more then helpful on how to cook them. Make sure you get a container of their tzaztiki and some olives - you won't regret it!
Best place to shop!! My family has been coming here to shop for years!! Delightful! Everything is fresh and so so good. Not only can you get your fresh meat, cheese, olives, peppers, tzatziki, yogurt, bread, olive oil, and much much more you can also go next door to their bakery for fresh deserts!! One stop shop!! Love it!!!! 5+ star for sure!! Bon appetit!! Xo
I was a Kostas market customer for over 20 years and i was spending a fair amount of money weekly at the store. Couple of years ago i was sold (during Greek Easter) a whole lamb which was hard to eat, like an old cow. I was given the excuse that the butcher made a mistake and gave me a fresh killed lamb and that i would be given a full refund. Well, 2 years later not only i have not be given a refund, not only i have purchased 1 more lamb that was chewy and hard to eat but now apparently they are charging $35 per pound for lamb chops (they call them French lollipop chops) which i'm buying from Highland farm for many years now, for $15.99 per pound. Very disappointed cause that store was my home away from home to me but when Kostas is not much around the mice are running free. Too bad.
Kostas is one of my goto butchers in our district the old fashioned Greek way. Kostas will prepare it the way you want if you give them a couple of days notice. I have never been disappointed with their meat or services during the regular season or at the holidays.
Best place to get stakes AAA
Excellent service.
Always a great selection of quality meats.
Kostas meat is costliest in the market. Yet, worth for even single cent...must buy is Ontario goat
Friendly staff, good quality meat for a reasonable price, they are wonderful with kids giving them candy or chocolate beautiful place to shop.
Kostas has by far not only excellent service but also fantastic meat products and Greek products. I highly recommend.
They are fantastic. Reasonable pricing and delicious food
Excellent as usual!
Great quality meat - worth the money if you want good food. Their tzatziki and greek dressing are made in house and are delicious!
Originally this establishment was very helpful, friendly, and good priced. My grandparents have been patrons of Kostas for several years because he is the closest to authentic Greek cuisine/meats in their neighbourhood. For the past few years their service has declined, and this year my grandmother was screamed at after being told to come to pick up her $200 piece of meat, and told to stop bothering him. Not sure where this erratic behaviour is coming from, but even if it's stress related to the season, it's completely unnecessary and just plain rude. After finally receiving the meat, it was bleached, and had little to no flavour. If this is how he treats regular customers, I suppose as long as you're not regular customer, he'll treat you like gold.
Awesome products and service. These people want you to be happy. Palacalo(?)
This butcher shop is a gem in Scarborough! Consistently high quality selection of flavourful meats, very friendly service, they are never understaffed and always ready to help cater to your specific requests. Prices are reasonable and you can't beat the value especially in this neighbourhood. Look no further.
Sharing on behalf of my mom: I recommend this store, the meat purchased here was worth every dollar. It’s very hard to find authentic goat meat as plenty of shops will sell you sheep. Kostas sells the best cuts. The employees and owner are helpful & knowledgeable
Great Greek butcher with store-made tzatziki, excellent olive bar, fresh pita. All at very reasonable prices!
Everything is EXCELLENT!
Awsome, I wish I knew about it Year's ago,
Kosta's Meat Market is remarkable! Their customer service is the best: Nick was a total dream, going above and beyond, clearly loving his job and spreading his good energy to each and every customer! Their steaks are A+ and their olives are drool-worthy. I'll be back again and again. Couldn't have asked for a better experience! Thank you, Nick!
Great tasting pastries
Great place and friendly stuff.
Quality of meat - 10/10 Social distancing and masks by the workers - 0/10 I hope the city looks into their Covid response!
Good selection & quality of meats
The best for feta, kebab, bacon, and olives
Great service and even better quality of meat.
Friendly guys, great cuts, great prices.
Wonderful old school butcher shop with the best meat in the area. Don't go to Costco for your steaks, go to Kostas
Great quality meat & tons of items from Greece!
fast service, fresh meat, great prices! cannot say enough about this place. Best in Scarborough
I know this place very well. I worked here as a butcher for five years. Nobody knows his meats as well as Kosta. Plus he has a heart of gold and is very honest. You can't go wrong here.
Awesome.
Best solouvaki for bbqing!
Wasn't this the place that got caught adding chemicals to make meat look fresh Horrible Also they rip ppl off easter time for the lamb charge you 225$ for a 25/30lb lamb and Give you something that's like 17/20lb
Excellent service
I've tried all the butchers in Ontario and nothing compares to kostas. They have amazing selections. Why shop anywhere else?
Love coming here, best place to find feta for a really great price, the lamb is delicious and fresh. I always come here to get everything I need to make my greek dishes, my grandma has been shopping there since I was alittle girl. Octopuss is over priced but it's to die for ????
I went in and asked the Male cashier if they had Italian sausage. He looking at me as if I insulted his mother and mumbled no. They need to step up their game, both with better selection and better customer service...
Very nice people working here. Products are good ,especially Dodonis Feta. Thanks guys
Great meat great service. I buy Black Angus strip Loin(the whole loin ) decent price and cut to your desired thickness. The Feta is awesome. Comes in a wood barrel. Awesome. Good selection of olives as well
Great meat, amazing service
Excellent Greek place in Scarborough that has a variety of cut meats. Our favorite are the bacon wrapped Chicken, London Broil, Beef Tenderloin, and chicken souvlaki. All go very well with their authentic tzatziki. Busy on weekends especially in the summer. The best market imo. Always fresh product at a price that doesn't kill my pockets. The staff is beyond helpful and friendly. If your craving something sweet next door is their amazing bakery with all of Greeces delights!
My mouth is watering just thinking about what to write about this place. Do yourself a favor and get your ass in here. You won't be disappointed.
If you try once the meat then you always will come here
Excellent Greek place in Scarborough that has a variety of cut meats. Our favorite are the bacon wrapped Chicken, London Broil, Beef Tenderloin, and chicken souvlaki. All go very well with their authentic tzatziki. Busy on weekends especially in the summer.
Always a great product. The chicken souvlaki are delicious, but the best are the beef soulvaki. Make sure you pick up some tzazkiti sauce to accompany your meat. Another go to product is the bacon wrapped filet mignon - always a good choice. Picture below!
Very friendly place
I specifically come from Vaughan when I need certain items from Kostas meat market. Family run business since I can remember. Support small businesses.
The best souvlaki in town, the best prices on all their meats and the best service. I'd rather shop here than any grocery store for meat.
I was recommended by a friend, and let me tell you that this place has all the super foods you need if you do the Mediterranean diet. Shop here for BBQ or garlic yogurt (tsaziki) is great. Love it!
Perfect Greek meat market.
I love their cakes and bakery. Their staff is very friendly. I once bought handmade key chains from here too. They have kept the place tidy.
Awesome place!
Great service and the products are excellent.
Very easy to do your doing. Excellent quality.
Great selection of meats, cheeses ...olives etc.
Great place to shop
Short line up to get in . Love their kebabs and lamb souvlaki.Their tzatziki is amazing-not watery ,great flavour and lasts a long time. When I need ground lamb they grind it up on the spot-make yummy lamb burgers and serve it with tzatziki!! They have ample parking and I don't have to go all the way down to Greektown to get great souvlaki and tzatziki. Kosta's bakery next door is amazing too-great spanakopita,kourabiedes and Nutella cannoli-baklava excellent too. Great service.Great location.
Super
Speedy service and good inventory on all the things I wanted including the excellent Barrel Feta
Always more than happy to keep the customers happy, I have been going to Kostas pretty much since it opened.
Fresh, top quality and the best service
Great service! Great,fresh products! My family and I love the quality, it’s so good. Authentic and flavourful Feta Cheese, Greek Yogurt, Tzatziki, beautiful lamb and beef strip loin steaks, and etc! This is by far the best butcher shop I’ve been to in Toronto! Harris takes care of his customers and is very helpful for when you need something, also very kind and empathetic. Thank you for being the best, Kostas! :)
5 stars on the meat. 1 star for there lack of Covid measures. No wearing of masks while serving and packaging my order. Someone needs to take some order in there.
I had an issue with an order and John stepped up to make things right. Truly appreciated and a straight up business owner. Thank you!
Beautiful selection of meats and best tzatziki and yogurt.
Best butcher in Scarborough
Great staff
Great service!!!
This is a greek store. Good chese, good olives, great lamb meat, lots of etnic greek stuff. No vegies and fruits here. Next door is Kostas Bakery. I dare anybody to resist to the urge to buy something. Personnel very nice. Free and ample parking.
Been going to Kosta's for a while now. The employees are always a pleasure to see. They are all very helpful. Their souvlaki is amazing!!! I LOVE the tzatziki sauce, who ever makes it is very good at their job. Always get the FETA from the barrel. It is the best!
Great meats and Slovakia.
Fantastic place to shop
Everyone is always very friendly and helpful! Place is always clean and the food is amazing!
Great place for meat Greek
Amazing prices and quality, from the amazing meats bread and authentic Greek dry goods to the bakery. Always fresh and amazing quality

Great quality! Great service!
Great selection and friendly service
Best place for all Greek food and products, and always leave there laughing. Seriously, these guys should have a reality show.
First time at the meat store was surprised to see everyone smiling and anxious to help . Kudos to you all I will be back.
prices are great ! souvlaki is awesome and tzatziki is the best I've had !!
Always fresh . Always taken care of right when you walk in. 20 years customer and for a reason. Thanks guys...
Hands down the best place
Good place to buy meat. They give back to the community by having charity BBQ days.
Perfectly butterflied leg of lamb for quick and even grilling. I needed a way of quickly preparing a leg of lamb for some unexpected guests. I did not have the time to slow roast. The head butcher at Kostas found me a beautiful leg of lamb. He removed the bone keeping all of the meat in one piece. He then was able to butterfly the entire piece of meat and kept the entire cut an even thickness for quick and even cooking. Every single bite was enjoyed by my guests. Thank you very much. Remember to speak to the tall butcher with the earphones. He knows his stuff.
Good meat, good prices! Lots of other greek stuff too!
Always a great shopping experience. The best tzatziki, fresh meats, best feta in the barrel... the staff are always friendly and eager to assist, and ensure that you always get what you want.
Great kabobs and fresh Tiziki. Knocked off one star because the guys in the back working with the meat has their masks under their nose or chin.
Very upset, would give it a zero , went there today and was very crowded no distancing at all , and the person at the cash was coughing.
First time trying Kostas meats and all I can say is, amazing service and food. They were very patient with us too - we had lots of questions! Their skewers are quality meats and my kids asked for more. We will be back!
Always great
Friendly knowable staff good quality of products at reasonable prices, best premarinated skewers around so yummy and easy to prepare
I try to shop here once a month. The service is great and their pre-marinated meats are delicious. Try their orange sausages, it's not as weird as it sounds, the subtle taste of orange in the meat is great.
Always an amazing experience
Excellent
Excellent quality meat at more than fair prices. Support your local butcher for the freshest meat possible. Don't buy that pre packages grocery store stuff.
Top quality meats
I went in to pick up a couple steaks. I didn’t see a single person wearing their mask properly. Either their nose was out or the mask was hanging off their ear. The guy at the register at the front wasn’t wearing one at all.
Our first time at the market, they gave us two free souvlaki with the purchase of five, it was a very nice surprise!
Good service despite last minute Easter purchase
A lot of great Greek products and meats!
Kostas Meat Market has always been amazing! Their excellent products, fast service and helpful personnel make this market a remarkable place to meet your grocery needs all year round. During this difficult time we are all experiencing Kostas Meat Market has exemplified true community spirit. Delivery is now offered to help those needing help. From the individual answering the phone to the one writing down your order, the one picking your order and addressing your concerns, to the one delivering them to your doorstep.....each and every one of them together.... a genuine team effort has shown care and sincerity. We placed our order yesterday and we received it today !!! Thank you... thank you very much Kostas Meat Market for your support and everything you and your staff are doing to help make these times a little easier for us all . God Bless and please please keep safe. Angela
What part of wearing a mask is not clear to the staff ? Seriously, prepare food with your mask over your face.
This place is awsome
I called and asked for beef cheeks and they confirmed they had it. I went to the store and they sold me 3 frozen unmarked bags of meat and assured it was cheeks (confirmed again in store). It was marked at $4.99 and they tried to ring it at $5.99 until I kindly reminded them. Bought it for a special occasion and spent 8 hours cooking it. Turned out it was BEEF LIVER. So disappointed. My first and last time coming here.
Great service and specialty items for Hellenians.
Love Kostas. Great Souvlakis and tzatziki and lamb.
Try their feta, or olives with bread... Got a sample, it was soo tasty
Family-friendly meat shop with great selection of high quality products and some good advice. They are always anxious to make that special cut and wrap. Great place to shop.
Great products and fair pricing
I have been going to Kostas for years now. Great meat, amazing cheese and price is right. Love to buy at small family run businesses
Expensive but the quality matches the price
Best,
The place is always crowded, no social distance. The worst thing is the staff , who are dealing with food , are not wearing masks at ALLL. they talk to each others loudly, with no masks at all. I wouldn't recommend it at all.
Awesome
Best feta!
I went to this shop based on high review.I am not satisfied.Firstly, the butcher that served me was rude.I think this shop fits to regular old fashioned community specific customers. Secondly, the lamb meat cuts that I bought were average, did not find anything special that calls for high reviews.The meat was too smelly, I like the flavour of lamb meat in general, but here it was more strong.
Fresh meat inexpensive
Excellent meat and service - would definitely recommend this place!
Kostas is the place to get all manner of greek foods and dont miss the bakery quality is amazing
Best pork in the city!
Always Fresh Always The Best! I drive all the way from Woodbridge for their meat and cheese.
Top quality meat, friendly service and lots of parking. As well, this is the only meat market where I can get soup bones !
People were polite and service was great
Great selection of fresh meat
My experience was excellent and service and products to my liking.....for fresh and high quality it is thr number one place
Fast and friendly service. Meat is fresh and wide variety of cuts. Best place for fresh souvlaki.
Kostas is #1 in the business. Always service the best meat and fresh cheese. They were all wearing masks and even offered me an extra mask on the way out! Can't wait for summer so I can buy their hot wings. Keep it up!
It would have been amazing if they opened at 8am like there signs, and website said. We waited till 830am and still not open. Very strange.
Everything there is fresh and great. You would not be disappointed.
Nice meat
Always great selection of butcher n greek foodstuffs
Amazing quality and service everytime
Beautiful cuts of meat. Nice assortment of cheeses and spices. A fairly large store with lots of options. The bakery also is worth a visit, great sweets at good prices.
Great !!! Will be visiting again soon
For my dad to insist this is the only place to buy traditional loukanika you know it's great. Hunters normally don't give credit so easily lol
Kostas never disappoints! All their meat is high quality and delicious. Their home made tzatziki is to die for, and if you need a dessert after your bbq their bakery next door has you covered.
The best market imo. Always fresh product at a price that doesn't kill my pockets. The staff is beyond helpful and friendly. If your craving something sweet next door is their amazing bakery with all of Greeces delights!
Love the souvlaki
Great service, and great food
Friendly and helpful staff..... best wings and pea-meal bacon in town.
Best sausage in toronto ,fantastic meat of any kind,lots of good greek cuisine
Last night bought lamb shoulder to be used for a curry and requested that it be trimmed. It was hacked away with a belligerence that was uncalled for, all while talking with a cell phone stuck on his shoulder. I have $45 worth of bone and bone shards and fat that I now have to trim. That server should be fired. Though I have purchased here before I will never buy here again. Back to Costco for lamb.
Great
Very helpful staff. Great meat
Best meat in the city! Friendly staff! John is the BEST!
Great place, Great selection Great Service. Highly recommend
Lots of delicious meats and other things.
Great selection and cuts of meats and lots of friendly and helpful staff.
The Best Meat Shop! Love shopping there
Great place to get your meats. Great people and great service. Meat is always great
Bought a whole lamb in June, once we got it home and unwrapped it was evident from the smell that the lamb that it was going “bad”. We decided against cooking the lamb, based on the smell and called the store. The response from Kosta’s over the phone was not one of concern or inquiry, rather we were told that the time that it took for us to transport the lamb is what caused it to go back; a complete denial of any fault and a nonsensical explanation about transportation being the issue. Bottom line, we were sold a lamb that was going “bad” and Kosta’s had absolutely no concern charging us for it and consuming a meat product that should have NEVER been sold for consumption.
Am a regular here. Get my Greek pastries and supplies for the refrigerator. Worth driving. Always great service. Fast and friendly.
Great variety and selection. i always end up leaving with more than I planned on.
We drive all the way from Newmarket just to get here They have all the Greek cheeses we want, as well as the orange sausages (lokanika (sp)) Great meats and everything we need Well worth the drive Kostas the owner is always happy to see us and greet us with a smile Highly recommend this place
Amazing meat. Never disappointed
The quality of meat is fantastic, at prices that compete with the nearby grocery and big box stores. In particular, I love that they will cut a piece to order, fresh grind my favourite ground meat mix of veal, pork and beef. The steaks are generously sized, but if I want something thicker - no problem. Love the double chicken breasts. Of note, the greek dips are fantastic and they've locked on to a great supplier of pita.
Excellent customer service provided! Thanks!
