We came in as a family and ordered a little bit of everything, I had the gyro plate, we started with the calamari, and the family got the chicken plate, a gyro wrap, and a mini burger for the little one. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and plated well. The tzatziki sauce was perfect, and the portion sizes were just right.
The only hiccup was that our daughter’s mini burger didn’t come out until about halfway through the meal. Thankfully, she was happy snacking on our fries and gyro meat while waiting, no meltdown, just a minor delay. Otherwise, service was kind and checked in often.
Atmosphere was clean and casual; a solid local spot for Greek food with fast-casual vibes and sit-down comfort.
We’ll definitely be back to try more. If you’re in Vacaville and craving Greek flavors, Athenian Grill is a must-visit. Great for families, quick lunches, or casual dinners with friends.

Prices are high. I like the fish and chips. Greek salad is usually yummy. Tonight the salad was not fresh.

Family met at the restaurant on a Sunday at noon. We ate outdoors which was very pleasant. We were not in a rush so we appreciating time to chat with our family. The staff was very pleasant and helpful when it came to gluten free options. First time we had a gluten free subsides pita bread and it was delicious. The food was very tasty and abundant. We all took home boxes of left overs.

Chic, clean, inviting restaurant on the edge of the water with excellent Greek/ Mediterranean food and warm friendly service. The hummus platter was delicious, and don't miss the house made baklava!

I had a craving for Greek Food, and this place not only hit the spot but it had a chill environment and a nice view of the water from the outdoor seating. I had a Gyro plate with a side of hummus, it was wonderful. Wait staff were friendly and attentive!

Amazing food with a nice view of the Waterfront. It was awesome to learn that the menu items are the Owner's family's recipes. My favorites are all the lamb meat options. Very tender and tasty 😋

Great little place with a wonderful atmosphere. Sitting outside on a nice day is highly recomended.

Fries were cold and over cooked. Gyro meat was greasy and highly salty Pita bread was dry Party of six. No one liked their food. Waitress mixed up orders and never asked what was wrong when my plate was still full as she was clearing away
Love the location and being able to sit outside in the covered patio area to enjoy the weather and the view. This is our go-to place on beautiful days. Food is good but not real consistent. A little pricy considering the best restaurant in the area is just down the street and only 10-15 $ more. But this place is all about the view and the outstanding service. The service with a smile must be an actual requirement to work here because we have been going for years, prior to their closure and since they reopened and have never had a rude server or a bad experience and that makes it worth it.

Stopped in for lunch with a group of three. The view of the marina is a nice added touch for a relaxing lunch. The service is always good and the entire team is friendly. The food is outstanding.
