The salad was amazing with a piece of feta on top, served with an entire bottle of dressing for you to add as you see fit. The falafel was to die for, so crunchy and yummy, and the hummus was so fresh and delicious. I loved the soup and rice together and the tzatziki sauce was super good!!! I also have never had such great dolmas in my life, fragrant and aromatic, not too oily. Loved it and I wanna come back!!!

Can't believe I waited so long. This meal was all of that!! The meat is super tender and full of flavor. The pita was light fluffy and packed full of all of the goodness of the beef. As usual I ordered an old fashioned which is always done right by the bar. Portions are great as you either need to bring your appetite or be ready for a to-go box. Cajun Greek never disappoints and always keeps me coming back for more until I get through the menu.

We loved the Tzatziki appetizer with pita bread and olives - delicious! We then devoured the whole blacked redfish -expertly prepared and so flavorful! The prices were reasonable for seafood and the drink prices were great! Lots of fun drinks to choose from on the bar menu. I loved the coconut margarita. This is definitely a go-to for locals and can get a little crowded but it is worth it. Love the casual atmosphere, friendly service, and of course, the seafood.

Having worked in restaurants before, I'm a bit more sensitive towards restaurant workers needing to break down, clean up, close down, and go home. I'm never one to go in five minutes to closing and order a meal. My buddy says, "They're open, let's get some food." "They look like they're getting ready to close. No customers. No wait, they look like they're still cooking. Let's see what they got." We went in and were greated like long lost family. They were so nice and welcoming. We ordered gyros and rice to go. The food was fantastic! Everything cooked perfectly. Definitely going back.

Ok so ugh I really wanted to like this place but it just disappointed on so many levels…read more 1. Both my gf and I got the chicken shawarma pasta which was presented beautifully but lacked so much flavor. It didn't taste salted and it was almost too small of a portion size considering how much we paid for it. 2. The falafel we got came in 3 and it was so expensive, dried out and unseasoned. Like I'm so serious it taste like nothing- no salt, no cumin, nothing. The pickled veggies it came on were delicious though I will say maybe even the best but the falafel felt so flat. 3. We got tiramisu and baklava as dessert and our desserts were mostly frozen. Gross. The tiramisu lacked flavor and the baklava was way too dense but kinda soggy at the same time. 4. The pita was so tough to eat super chewy. 5. The hummus was just alright. 6. Our food did come super quickly- we ordered through DoorDash!

The gyro meat was served in large chunks, almost like it had been torn apart by hand. Most of the meat trays were running low, and nothing fresh came out while we were there. The lentil soup was watery and lacked seasoning, though the falafels were decent. There were 4-5 different rice dishes, but they all tasted very similar. The Dr Pepper was good, at least. Overall, this was probably a one-and-done visit for us. We really liked the location that used to be in the downtown tunnels, but this one just didn't do it for me.

The stars finally aligned and I was able to meet them here recently. My mom wanted to order some dolomades to start off, and I'm not really a big fan, so I just figured those would be all her. But she offered to let me try one, and I can easily say that these were the best dolomades I've ever had. She agreed. I have no idea what they do to make these not taste so "sharp" like they usually do, but these were really unbelievable. For my appetizer, and I went with a beef/lamb gyro and it was everything you want in a gyro. Soft pita bread, non-gamey meat and everything in between. The greek salad that came with it was pretty underwhelming, but I ordered a side of greek fries too, and those were what I was hoping they'd be. We finished off by ordering a few desserts to share. I went with the strawberry cheesecake as the one I was mostly focused on, and loved it. This is definitely not a frozen cheesecake - they make them in-house and it's obvious when you take your first bite. I understand why Athena's Corner has such great reviews and hope to be back!

Piping hot delivery perfectly cooked (chicken barg was a little dry but considering it's catered and delivered it's not too big a deal and to be expected honestly) but they were actually great.

Our sides consisted of caramelized onion hummus, creamy pasta, cucumber salad, roasted cauliflower, and tabouli. All were very good, especially the hummus.

I love Greek food, so I decided to try this place out. I was greeted when I approached the counter. I ordered the Gyro Plate to go. There wasn't anyone in the restaurant, so it was very clean and quiet. It took about 3 minutes for my order to be ready. My dinner came with a good size salad, rice pilaf, pita bread and the meat. The meat was delicious. They don't give much pita bread, so I'll order extra next time. The rice was "ok". I didn't like that it had red pepper flakes in it, making it a little spicier than I can stand. Overall, I like it. I did go back and got a gyro instead of the gyro plate and it was HUGE and delicious! I unfortunately didn't get a chance to take a picture because I was starving, so you'll have to trust the Teller of Truth!
