" The last time we visited Athena’s, we had an excellent dining experience! The owner was present and very hands-on, ensuring everything was to our liking. We tried a variety of dishes, and every single one was delightful, particularly the fig burger and pita. We left feeling satisfied and with plans to return soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I am so happy I discovered Athena's! The fig burger was extraordinary and the desserts, especially the baklava, were heavenly. Although I had a minor delay with my order, the staff was genuinely apologetic and made up for it with great service. I highly recommend visiting to experience some authentic Greek flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally got to try Athena's and ordered the gyro plate. The meat was seasoned perfectly and the accompanying sides were fresh and delicious. Unfortunately, I had a bit of an issue with my order taking a while. However, the friendly staff and comfy ambiance made up for it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Really enjoyed the live music and vibes at Athena's. Had their Greek coffee which was surprisingly delightful! I also got the chicken souvlaki, which was perfectly grilled. Will definitely return for both the food and the atmosphere! It's a fun place to eat and hang out. " (*Curated Review*)

" On my recent visit to Athena’s, the food was average but the service completely turned me off. It took too long to get our order, and once we received it, my dish was missing an item I had requested. While the atmosphere was nice, I left feeling unsatisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was disappointed with my experience. I went for their famous gyro, but it fell flat on flavor. The meat was a bit dry, and there weren't enough fresh veggies included. I did enjoy the atmosphere, but the service was somewhat slow. It seems like they might be a hit-or-miss restaurant. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit to Athena's, and I had high expectations. While the food was good, it didn’t quite match the incredible reviews I had heard. The lamb I ordered was tender, but the spices seemed lacking. The staff were friendly, which made up for some of my culinary disappointments, but I wouldn't say it was my favorite place in town. " (*Curated Review*)
