Jimmy the Greek - FC09

Back in 1963, Jimmy Antonopoulos immigrated to Canada from Nafplio, Greece and began working in a restaurant in the busy Bay Street business district. During this time he noticed that people had very few options to enjoy freshly prepared home cooked meals when on the go. Seeing his opportunity he started his first restaurant offering a menu inspired by his traditional Greek family recipes and 34 years later he is still offering those same great recipes. Today there are 55 Jimmy the Greek quick service restaurants across Canada. Jimmy’s instincts were correct!

"The success of our operations is a simple recipe: possess a burning desire to offer delicious high quality fresh food, provide fast friendly service and do it with a touch of Greek hospitality."
