As all our friends and customers know, Nick has retired after 41 years of serving Great Greek Food. Thanasi's Greek Restaurant has been sold to a fine Indian family that currently operate Swaad Restaurants in Windsor and Leamington.

"Swaad is one of the most distinct and popular Indian cuisines in Ontario. It offers a vast variety of delectable and exotic vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes that are prepared with varied traditional culinary styles, particularly the tandoori style," according to their website.

We ask everyone to support the new owners with the same fervor and love that you showed us over the decades. Please stop by Swaad once it opens at 1204 Tecumseh Road East and experience the wonderful taste of India.

You can visit Swaad's website here to peruse their fine culinary offerings:

More love notes from our wonderful friends and customers as we close our doors after 41 years.

"Good Morning,

"I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for the many years of wonderful food from your wonderful family and staff. You have been a staple in our home for many, many, many years.

"Unfortunately I never learned how to cook Greek cuisine from my Yaya and whenever I go in there and eat your food I feel like I’m at her home again.

"There’s so many memories from your restaurant, from the paper place mats with a map of Greece where I would always try and find the island my family is from. The time that Nick gave my class Greek culture lessons and handed out “Officially Greek” certificates (he laughed when he read my name because I didn’t need one). To my son experiencing Saganaki and the Opa it comes with for the first time.

"My brother, son and I dined there last night and as I reheat my last bowl of Avgolemono (my absolute favourite) from you I am full of emotion. So I just wanted to say from the bottom of mine and my son's heart, thank you.

"Much love and good luck on your new adventures,

"Shannon and Jaxton Kambouris"

"Hi Nick,

"Hi, I'm Elunia and I love your restaurant, it's probably the most beautiful thing I've ever seen! It's so sad you're retiring. If I could I would buy it myself (if I was old enough).

"I want to thank you for the experience that I had at your restaurant because when I went there I was astounded by all the sculpture and architecture. I had just moved here and this was probably my favourite restaurant.

"Also, can you show this letter to the rest of the employees because I want to thank them for the amazing food, experience and memories I will have for the rest of my life.

"PS: My dad and I love all the food and would be grateful if we could have the recipe for everything!

"Sincerely, Elunia"

"Somehow words seem inadequate to say thank you. Thank you for many years of family memories, made enjoying the atmosphere of your wonderful restaurant, which always made your incredible food taste even better.

"It was always obvious that the magic (not so secret) ingredient was love. Love of your culture and love of the food shared with so many of us in Windsor, and elsewhere in the world that might be visiting.

"You saw us all through many events in our lives, and kept us nourished and content along the way. Wishing you health, happiness and much love in your retirement. You will be sorely missed.

"Nick and Staff of Thanasi's,

"I was first introduced to your Perfect Lunch 16 years ago when a drug rep brought it for us. I have been requesting it ever since! I then started buying it to take home for the family.

"I am never disappointed in the service or the quality of the food. I have always admired the decor as well. You have a beautiful establishment and talented staff who bring endless flavour to each dish that's served.

"I will truly miss my Perfect Lunch and the Salmon that I've never found as good anywhere else!

"Sad to see you go, you can never be replaced, but happy you lived your dream through to the end and now you can reap the benefits and enjoy the time to relax and be with your families!

"Thank you again, Tiffany - Dr. Nwadiar's Office."

"Dear Thanasi's Staff,

"Thank you for all the great memories. Your restaurant is amazing and will be missed. The last 30 years we have come here to celebrate our wedding anniversary every April 12th. My husband Ken was the big man in the wheelchair, and every year he was accommodated very well by all of you.

"Unfortunately, Ken passed away last September and today is our 42nd anniversary. It's ironic, my last visit here is my first without him. I needed to come here to celebrate with my children and grandchildren.

"Thanks for the great service and memories. You will never be forgotten.

"Thanks and God Bless, Elaine Baird."
