Our server was the kindest I’ve had anywhere. The food was also delicious. This was our first time going and we will definitely continue going in the future!

The chicken souvlaki was tender, juicy and delicious. It came with rice, a side salad and soft pita bread. The service was professional and friendly.

We decided to try Athens because we have a rule of not eating at places we have at home. So while on our Christmas shopping adventure, this is where we picked.
Don't worry about the looks! Yes, it's in a strip mall.. and yes the decor is shall we say, sparse.. but it was impeccably clean and staff was welcoming!
We started with appetizers, our first two choices were not available, the calamari and the spanakopita. So we got the hummus and the crab stuffed mushrooms. The hummus was ok, I'm not a fan of a lot of olive oil over the top but decent flavor. The crab stuffed mushrooms were decent. Had a strong lemon flavor and zero crab, but as a stuffed mushroom it was a bright tasty version.
Our main course, the reason we came to Athens, the gyros! As with the appetizers, we were told they didn't have any fries. Which was the side that comes with, so I asked for maybe a salad instead. Which just caused pure confusion to our poor server. But to our surprise, both came out with fries! Which honestly, were fried perfectly, crispy outer edge and soft fluff inside! On to the important part though, the gyros! OMG!! These were on point! So similar to the ones we loved when we lived in Florida. Absolutely delicious! They actually split the pita and stuff it, veggies then they piled the meat on top, oh and plenty of tzatziki sauce! I chose to dig around with my fork to mix the meat and veggies, my wife ate as assembled, do as you wish. These gyros are huge and perfect!
We were too stuffed to eat the baklava with our meal, but let me tell you.. I devoured that incredible sticky flakey deliciousness later at home! Wow!
While we usually try to find something new to eat each trip to Jonesboro, we will at least be getting a few gyros and baklava to take home next time we are in town!

You can tell when someone takes pride in their work, and this place radiates pride through the flavors of the food and the kindness of the staff. Everything is fresh and delicious.

Very good Greek restaurant. The portion’s are large. The service is very good. I went on a night when it wasn’t to busy. I think it’s a good choice for Greek cuisine when in Jonesboro.
