Food here is delicious! I'm middle eastern and don't usually like Greek or middle eastern food from restaurants because I can cook it myself. But this place is the exception. They do a great job

Decided to try another item on their menu & they didn't disappoint !! I ordered the open gyro pita this time & it's slightly bigger than the gyro wrap. Fillings were so delicious and flavorful. Service was quick & friendly- I got my order to go & got it within 10 minutes. Same cozy ambiance with touches of Greece everywhere.

Tried this establishment for the first time last night, as many people have been raving about it. So glad we did!!! We ordered the open chicken pita and the open gyro pita. It was so easy to order and pickup was just as great. Inside was immaculate and the staff was so friendly! Food was full of taste and prepared nicely. Bravo Athenia!

Super pleased with this establishment. Order the chicken shish bowl, mint lemonade, pita with eggplant dip and hummus, and rice pudding through Uber eats. The chicken was perfectly cooked and seasoned full of flavor. The lemon potatoes, beet salad and village salad plus super greens were also fresh. The bowl was a good size. The rice pudding was excellent and so was the eggplant dip. The hummus had a flavor I didn't personally enjoy and I am not sure I received tahziki w my bowl as I requested but I didn't even need it that's how tasty it was . So happy I found this place and will be ordering again soon

Randomly stumbled upon this restaurant because I was in the area . I ordered the fried fish gyro and it was fresh and good! At this restaurant you can choose your protein, topping and sauce . They also have the bowl option if you don't want the gyro pita. I ate inside the restaurant which was small but comfy. However the young girl at the front taking orders speaks and understands very little English which will always be a problem for me when it comes to taking orders and customer service . The fish gyro was only $10 so the prices are very reasonable !

Expansive menu with a variety of delicious options. We tried the Chicken Gyro, Lamb bowl with every imaginable option, Stuffed Grape Leaves and baklava. Staff were welcoming. If you're looking for fast, fresh, and delicious Greek food (that does not compromise quality) --go here first! Cozy ambience and friendly service. We will definitely come back. See you soon Tasso and team! (Peter from Purity Water)

How have I lived near this place and never thought to try it! So delicious and fresh. My boyfriend and I decided to pickup an order from here and we were pleasantly surprised. I'd suggest ordering online because they have so many options you're bound to miss something in person. I got a chicken bowl with ancient grain, tomatoes, Kalamata olives, power greens and fries. Oh and it was drizzled with tahini and it was delicious! The fries were so so so good, crispy and seasoned perfectly. The power greens mix was really nice and fresh. Everything was perfect. My boyfriend enjoyed his platter with lamb and shrimp too. Their pita is out of this world - perfectly soft and chewy. I liked their hummus and tzatziki as well. This restaurant is in a small complex so parking isn't a problem. The staff is also really friendly. Definitely stop by if you're feeling like something fresh and healthy with a Greek twist!

Was really craving some good fries but didn't want a greasy burger. Decided to take a chance on this place that I had bookmarked a few weeks ago, really happy I did so! I ordered the Greek festival platter, it comes with beef/ lamb gyro, thick cut french fries, tzatziki sauce and a salad with feta dressing. I feel like the pita should come with it but it's an extra charge. Fries - thick cut and delicious. Definitely satisfied my craving. Salad - the feta dressing was delicious. Gyro - not salty like most places, meat was cut thick and not dry at all. Tzatziki - tasted fresh & homemade. Pita - normal pita Excited to have found a new Greek spot & definitely will order from here again.
