Athena Cafe Reviews
Food and Service...Excellent!!!! I have a new "Go To" for lunch/dinner.
I order delivery from Athena very often. I wish I was close so that I could just head to the restaurant. Delivery apps seem to have problems with certain entrees unfortunately. Often the apps cancel my order saying the entree is unavailable just after allowing me to pay for the order. This restaurant is fantastic. Never had an issue with the food quality, packaging etc. Just wish the delivery was provided by the restaurant rather than the apps.
My gyros was delicious and full of meat.
