I was so pleased a local FB group unanimously recommended Athens to supply my Greek-inspired dinner party! I wanted to make as much of the food as I could, so I needed authentic, fresh, affordable groceries. I visited twice recently and each time got exactly what I needed. They were helpful, the young man made some suggestions for me, and let me sample a few bits of feta. Great selection. I was very happy with my total and the dinner party was a huge success!! read more

Yes, Greek friends and grecophiles, this is the place to go. Fetas? Check. Pastries? Check. Groceries you can't find most other places? Check. All sorts of things to satisfy your Greek soul. Get that mahlepi for your tsoreki. Get some tiropitas (the country style is superior in my book). Get some MOTION juice (ok, this might be a niche obsession, but it's soooooo good). read more

Great variety of authentic Greek products, beer and cheese!!! Great place with a variety of Greek food and pastries. Good pricing on grape-leaves. Has a wide selection of feta cheese and Greek beer. read more

GO here...Spanokopita...warm and fresh from the oven....filo pastry crumbles in you mouth and the savory spinach and feta are mouth watering Next Feta....you got domestic feta ( great), you got Greek feta ( looked good too), you got Bulgarian feta ...you get the picture. Olives...of course all kinds...I only buy Kalamata, but decide for your self. Then there the rest of the market.....like I said go there. The prices are good too. read more

This place is absolutely amazing! I miss going here as often as I used to, now that I live in Toledo. Their grocery is amazing- my personal staples are the feta cheese (which is kept and sold in brine, the best way), filo dough, and the banana cookies. I could not live without this place because their feta is the absolute best, it is so fresh that no grocery store feta lives up to it. I also cannot sing the praises loud enough about their bakery. Every single time I go there I have to have the spanakopita. It is so worth a visit if you are in the area! read more

Its a great Greek store. Theres not any around Cleveland.I think this was the one at Lorain and 25th that closed. I don't get here too much anymore but its all about the food. i could eat Feta and crackers and wine all day long. I wish I could buy it as a retirement job but I cant. OPA!! read more

Fun little spot to find some Mediterranean groceries. The little menu is good too. You would never know it's there. Nice, friendly staff too. read more

Why oh why haven't we been here sooner? The food is amazing. From the veggie gyro to the Greek pierogies to the pork souvlaki, everything is great. Store is spotless; the employees are friendly and helpful. Prices are on the low end. Grabbed about 8oz of ground mustard for under $2. You can buy their gyro meat be the pound, fresh or frozen. Wonderful little store in a suspect strip mall. read more

I love shopping at Athens! They have amazing prices on bulk staples like lentils, spices, various rice varieties and whole wheat flour. Needless to say, they also have the best olive oil, vinegars and Greek cheeses. The best part, though, are the sweet and savory Greek pastries. I haven't ordered their gyros yet but I'm sure they're delicious. read more

I love this place. It's rare that I write a 5 star review. However every time I order from Athens Imported Foods, I get a great experience. I usually order through Grubhub. I typically order: Gyro Pita "SAUCE ON THE SIDE, PLEASE!! EXTRA SAUCE, PLEASE!!" Greek Salad Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Greek Vinegar "NO CARROTS, PLEASE!! NO PEPERONCINIS, PLEASE!! EXTRA DRESSING ON THE SIDE, PLEASE!!" It's always perfect. read more

I can't believe this is my first time knowing about this place!! Amazing store with nice selection of imported goods Will see my face regularly!!!! read more

very helpful staff, very knowledgeable. great selection of cheeses and other specialties. DELICIOUS tzatziki sauce. a great shop to have in the neighborhood! read more

First of all, as customer service goes. The owner sits there gossiping with others in the front tables and can care less about you while you are running around trying to find something. The ones behind the counter just stare at you. He also can immediately tell you are Greek but refuses to speak Greek to you , a classic Greek-American mentality from 60's immigrants. Second as far as prices: Many or the products, (examples would be stuff like Caprice chocolate cigars and NESCAFE) can now be found in every American super market yet they remain expensive. The price for products that are available elsewhere should drop but they have not. That is not illegal but inappropriate. The tiropita-spanakopita is clearly previously frozen but costs 2.50 bucks a piece. I can make you a whole pie for 4 bucks. As far as the existing products: They are of very good quality. I would say that they are "almost" comparative quality to the homeland...the spices are great, and there is a good selection of olive oil and cheese not only from Greece but generally the Balkan peninsula. This is basically a very adequate place considering we are at Cleveland, the middle of nowhere, so the fact we are getting "anything" authentically Greek is a gift from heaven. read more

Good gyros!! Best baklava in the city!! Wonderful selection of everything Greek.

Athens Imported Foods is a NE Ohio GODSEND! They are a supermarket and deli specializing in fresh, home made Greek foods, cheeses, pastries, and lots of other delicacies, many hard to find. Their apple tarts (made with fillo dough), finikia (moist honey pastries topped with walnuts), and koulourakia (twisted butter cookies with sesame seeds) are 'to die for'! And their feta cheese... OH MY GOD! So buttery smooth and flavorful, it literally melts in your mouth! And they have a wide variety, stored in brine filled vats, as it should be. Easily the best feta in all of NE Ohio. Their spanakopitas (spinach cheese pie) and tiropitas (cheese pie) were fabulous as well, and about twice the size of the ones you usually find at a Greek festival, or at your Yiayia's place. Their store is conveniently located off of I-480, in a small shopping plaza with tons of parking. Now that I have discovered this hidden gem, I will be making the 15 minute drive a lot more often! read more
