So today was our second visit here, being a Greek family with my Cajun husband we move in town from Michigan. My husband is originally from here, anyways we wanted to give it a second try. The first time was truly decent. So we came back this evening.We go and we sit and the part of the 'Greek' sit down portion of the restaurant. A young lady was sweeping, We waited like 5 minutes I thought maybe people had their own section. She did see me cuz she look at us from the corner of her eye and look down. Continue to sweep, But I got up and politely asked are you guys open or are you serving right now She said Yes we're open are you dining in and I said yes we are She said how many I said two. So when she came and she goes I'm sorry I didn't see you guys here which maybe she didn't. So I said no worries It's all good. Things happen we're here to enjoy all good. we're here for my son's birthday so we're excited to be here. She was training another lady on the do's and don'ts for the restaurant. And I will say that the demeanor of the server that she was training was very kind and the customer service was decent with her. The young lady that was training her was listening to her take our order I ordered the gyros platter I kindly asked if the tzatziki sauce was on the meat or separate because last time we came it was a little curlded maybe they had it under the heating lamp or whatever while waiting on the sandwich last time. She said what and I said the name again The girl look confused and the young lady said We call it Grecian dip, we don't call it that here... And it was it exactly the comment that made me feel like leaving? ... It was also more the energy that I felt after that moment from that was very dismissive. I am proud Greek and we were very excited to find a Greek restaurants that had actual Greek dishes Well kind of anyways, close to the house. I don't care if you saysaganaki is flaming cheese, the disrespect of correction really put me off. I don't even correct another out of towner that says gyros like guy-roh. It's rude I would not even do that. I just felt it wasn't appropriate and if you're going to have a partial Greek restaurant and Greek dishes If you knew what I meant, the disrespect was not necessary. Other than that you know the young lady was kind but it was very dismissive and as someone who's new to the area it turned me off. The food overall was very good I was impressed she said that they make the Grecian dip... With sour cream we usually use yogurt, I will say it was very very good. I did enjoy it, it was just hard to enjoy the whole atmosphere with that and the scary part is is that she's training someone else. So I'm hoping the other lady stays kind and doesn't put down the guest like that. Other than that my son really enjoyed himself it was his birthday and collectively as a proud Greek family we enjoyed. In the future though I I really think that bedside manner is very important and I'm probably a good 15 years older than the young lady but respect is very easy to do. I do appreciate you guys though the food was delicious We can return, we might try a couple other places but we hope to come back again. I will say though that the Mediterranean or Arabic salad was tremendously awesome and I thoroughly enjoyed that in the hummus. Much love, thank you

Ordering our food we had several orders of hummus and ordered extra pita bread along with 4 other entrees. After ordering our food we drove 30 minutes from Bourg to pick it up the food. Upon arriving at home we noticed they didn’t give us none of the pita bread! I called the restaurant and the manager just said she was sorry! What a waste!

Came at lunchtime on a Saturday.. should be the best time to come, and yet they’re out of nearly everything. No gyro meat, no burgers, no root beer/lemonade/coke. This is a chain so it should be consistent, but this place doesn’t even make the salads that are shown on the menu pictures. No cucumbers and no red onions. I paid extra for the salad with more toppings but they don’t even have them. This is Houma, so this is unfortunately what you get. But then to top it off, one salad and one soda cost me over $17. When am I going to learn to stop giving these places (businesses in Houma) my money?! A Greek gyro place should at least have gyro meat. ? edit to add: it’s not that the store is out of the gyro meat. I was told she could make it but it would take a while. I declined. Others came and ordered it too and “they’re out” but no one ever made the gyro meat. I guess they decided they didn’t need it on a Saturday during lunch ??‍♀️

After spending over $40 on barely enough food for 2 adults, I asked for a cup of water...you know the water that is free from the faucet from every other restaurant I've ever been to, and they were trying to charge me. Not to mention the quality of their food has greatly dropped since the last time I was there...I watched them make it "fresh" and it was still somehow cold. This includes a 15% price hike on their items that already boast an expensive price on the menu. One of my favorite restaurants, now becoming one that I will never visit again.

it took them 30 minutes to make a burger , i wouldve LOVED if they wouldve atleast let me know it was going to take that long.

Friendly staff, poor quality of food, small portions and very pricey...definitely not worth the price. Will not be returning and do not recommend.

me and my grandmother went to your store recently. we ordered a wrap and hummus. the employee claimed that they were out of pita, so we took off the hummus. she then asked me what i wanted on the side with the wrap. i told her salad. then, we paid. a few minutes later, the girl handed us our food, and said that they were out of lettuce, and that she couldn't give us the salad, nor could she put lettuce on my wrap. it doesn't bother me that they were out, as all businesses go through that, but what angered me is that she charged us for a salad, knowing that there was no lettuce. i am largely disappointed, and i hope that all your employees know that that is wrong and underhanded.

Enjoyed the fresh chicken wrap and tiramisu is the best in town! I'd definitely go to the mall just for Athenos Express

I ordered a Feta Salad from here with grilled shrimp. The salad was delicious and the shrimp was seasoned really well. The only negative is that my salad didn't have enough feta cheese on it. I would definitely eat here again.
