Food was delicious, definitely order the calamari. Service was great even though they were short staffed due to the winter storm that came through.

If you are looking for authentic Greek cuisine, Athenian bar and grill has all the classics, salad, kebab, fresh made dips (made from scratch daily), soups, seafood and grilled meats. All of the ingredients are of high quality and very fresh. We ordered the dip sampler, meat board, seafood board, Greek salad, and lemon chicken soup. Definitely try the soup, so delicious! Everything we ordered was tasty, but the soup stood out. Also wait staff was very friendly and attentive. Five out of five stars.
