A hidden gem, this my 4th times going there for lunch, so far I tried the gyro sandwich, gyro plate w cauliflower and potato’s, falafel sandwich and the kebab plate. Amazing dishes, friendly staff and the juice bar is a bonus. Outstanding service and clean environment. Highly recommended!

Absolutely delicious food! Great vegetarian options, and the falafel is the best I've had in a while. Everything is bright and citrusy- very fresh greens. Fantastic service and very friendly. The vegetarian plate with tabbouleh salad was delicious, I only have good words for this place!
Service was great and very friendly. The atmosphere was bright and very clean. The bathroom was clean as well. We messed up our order and they made it right and gave us the original. Awesome people!

At athena cafe you'll feel right at home always start with the dolma and hummus and ask for the beef kabeb with a tea..you'll be happy you did.

It kind of threw me off at first because it is counter service and the menu is posted on the wall fast-food style. Because of that I wasn't sure what the quality would be. OMG it was delicious! I think they have the most flavorful rice I have ever had. I will totally go back there!

Food was very tasty and fresh. I got the gyro wrap. Meat well seasoned but not salty, great flavor. Bread warm and soft. Portions are small for the price. Was a good experience.

Went a little after 7 on a Friday night. I got the gyro wrap, which came with two sides, OR a side and a drink (canned drinks). I got hummus and the salad. They do make it fresh for you, so it took 10-15 min. Hummus was nice and smooth, the wrap was very tasty. The pita bread that came with it was some of the best I've ever had. Might be better to get food to go, not really a romantic spot if you're thinking date night. They have 2 portable ac units, that make it very comfortable inside, but not great for the vibe of the place. Also had a bug zapper by the trash can. Appreciated, I didn't see anything flying, but the occasional zap was heard, but better than the possibility of flies.

I was looking very forward to trying this place. Reviews were good. I unfortunately got a waitress ( Shawn I believe) that seemed to be bothered with having a one person table. I ordered the Massaca which came with a Caesar salad that was absolutely tasteless except for the crouton on the side of the plate. The entree itself was beyond disappointing. Very clearly not fresh and not worth $16.95 for plate that was warm at best.( At least not microwaved) . A huge disappointment and not a place I would recommend it revisit..

First time customer here, I ordered the Avgolemono soup. It was absolutely delicious, 10/10. I also tried the gyro platter, the meat is perfect tender and cooked to perfection, the rice is amazing as well. Props to the guys over there, very polite and courteous. I will be returning again !! ?✨
