    Open Gyro Pita (with rice add-on)
    Natalie S.

    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!

    3. Chicken & Veggie Pita Wrap with side of CHOKING HAZARD

    Please be careful ordering from here. The last two times I ordered there were woods splinters due to the wooden kebab skewers. A few weeks ago I got a splinter in my mouth. Got a refund and vowed never to order again. Eventuallly I decided to give them another chance because I had so many good experiences in the past. This time there was a half inch kebab skewer piece in my gyro which I choked on. I also found other little splinters of wood in the food. I got my money back and ordered from Efi's instead.

    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)

    Pita with hummus and tzatziki

    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!

    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 !

    Greek festival platter, comes with lamb/beef gyro, fries, taziki and a salad with feta dressing. Grilled pita on the side is extra

    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.

    Live this place! Lots of vegan options with environmentally friendly containers. They hit it out of the park! The staff was very friendly & helpful. The food came out quick, was delicious, reasonably priced with a nice portion. I get the wrap & grilled vegetables but you cannot go wrong. I cannot express enough how impressed I am with everything about this place. Look no further.

    A well deserved dinner :)

    Definitely my new favorite spot in North Arlington!!! I was just leaving my resilient women event at my local church and got very hungry. I was craving for some Mediterranean food and found them which is right around the corner from my family's house. I'm so happy I found them, they were so nice, friendly and the food is DELICIOUS! I ordered a falafel wrap with a side of fries with some feta/mayo sauce... OH SWEET LORD WAS IT AMAZING!!!?!?! So amazing I was in fried potato heaven!!! The place is neat, really clean and the ordering process is very smooth. I will definitely come back for those fries. One of the gentlemen asked me how the fries were and my response was "Best decision I've ever made!". So happy.

    ordered Athenian using DoorDash and it went beautifully. Tried their bowls ... very good. Their lentil soup is also very good !

Its English name comes from a Greek legend: Zeus had an affair with a beautiful woman named Io. When Hera, his wife, discovered his infidelity, she turned Io into a cow and created a horsefly to sting her on the rump. Io jumped clear across the strait. Thus, "bous" = "cow" and "poros" = "crossing place": Bosphorus = "crossing place of the cow." Located off of busy Franklin Avenue in Nutley, my partner, our friends, and I have decided on our dinner at this family-owned-and-run BYOB establishment, which has been open since 1995. A reservation was made for a party of 4 by calling their restaurant. Upon arrival after three years, we were welcomed by Nora, the owner, and made our way to a table by the piano inside, evoking a cozy, thoughtfully designed, upscale vibe with music playing softly. Their menu features Turkish and Mediterranean cuisine. For starters, we decided on the Puffed Rill Pastry and Grape Leaves. Our main meal consisted of all lamb dishes (Lamb Shish Kebab, Beyti Kebab, Lamb Chops, and Lamb Sauté). Our food was fresh, well seasoned, and cooked to perfection, accompanied by a beautifully presented dish. Everything was authentically made with love here. Wish we could have stayed for dessert, as they looked amazing, but some of us were in a rush. It's definitely on the higher end cost but worth the taste. Our visit ended with a hug and a piece of candy.

The hummus is also smooth and tasty. It was shockingly empty for lunch but I suppose they do a lot of takeout and are busier on weekends. The ladies who were serving were so sweet and accommodating.

We ordered the fried Asiago cheese as an appetizer. It was crispy but had no flavor. I wish it came with a sauce or something (like a sweet drizzle would have made it better). We also tried two sandwiches, the beef brisket and cheesesteak sandwiches. The beef brisket was good, the sauce was a little sweet, and the beef wasn't too dry. The bread tasted fresh and I like the amount of ingredients in the sandwich. The cheesesteak wasn't the best. It had a cucumber wasabi sauce that wasn't the best. The meat was well cooked though. I just think the sauce isn't for everybody. I think I would order again from here. The prices were decent. Each sandwich came with a large amount of fries and the sandwiches were pretty filling.

I got a combo which came with 1/2 a chicken, sausage and ribs. Also came with two sides, so I picked Mac n cheese and baked beans. These sides were out of this world. Obviously home made. My son kept stealing scoops from me. The ribs were fall off the bone tender and the sausage was like a kielbasa but slightly spicier. The chicken was very good. Could have been a little more moist but still very good. Portion size was insane. Enough for a second meal for lunch the next day. I also got the Quinoa salad with feta and olives and that was out of this world. A little vinegarette with the saltiness of the feta was perfect.
