Athens Souvlaki

Yum! We ordered catering and everything was perfect and on time. We had their famous Greek salad with chicken and some rolled chicken sandwiches made with their famous homemade pita. First of all, the bread is amazing; it's worth it to go here just for that. Buttery, chewy and charred; perfect. The chicken bacon ranch pita is my favorite; the salad and chicken was fresh and delicious, even the next day. Their dressing is homemade and perfectly balanced. Love this place.

Fantastic food and fantastic prices! I came here for the first time today during my lunch break and the food came out so fast and you can definitely finish your meal in less than an hour if you need to. I got the chicken bacon ranch pita and artichoke hearts. My friend got a salad with gyro and the lemon soup. The pita was amazing, my friend said they made them in house, but even so I didn't think they'd be SO amazing. The artichoke hearts were good with my wrap. I tried my friends soup and I will 100% be ordering that next time I'm here (I have a feeling I will be here quite often haha)There's a lot of booths for comfortable seating and the service is efficient and nice :)

The kebab was much better than the salad. The Greek Salad had too much chicken, small olives with pits, and a bit of soggy lettuce. It was more of a chicken bowl than a salad. The lemon rice soup was good! The atmosphere was pretty drab. Looked thrown together and old. The service was friendly and quick. The portions were generous. It was good for lunch. I wouldn't bring a date here.

Athens is an easy go-to for lunch. They have my favorite greek salad and pita in detroit.

The gyro salad here is great. I get it with the gyro meat grilled. They are big and filling and come with plenty of toppings. The Greek dressing is great too. The tzatziki sauce is hit or miss (I always order a side for the gyro meat on my salad). It's like it depends on who makes - you may get what tastes almost like plain yogurt, or may get it made with cucumber or dill. I got chicken on my salad once and wasn't a fan- it was dry and bland. But the gyro salad with the dressing makes for a great lunch.

This place is amazing. The best Gyro in Detroit, hands down, no debate! Great service and longtime staff make it a friendly experience. Order the gyro and add feta. The homemade family secret recipe pita bread is the best I've ever had.

Nice Greek diner! Service was great, food came out super quick, I love the open kitchen concept I could see the cook making my food until it put it on the counter for pick up! I ordered the chicken souvlaki, It was great and my husband ordered the new cheesesteak sandwich, he wanted a bigger serving, but it was good nonetheless.

We came here because it's down the street from the Dime Store and we had a 45 min wait. Apparently they just opened back up and business has been slow. The bartender was very helpful and friendly. We weren't eating and just came in for a drink. The food smelled delicious though. I would come back to try some authentic greek food for sure!

I work near by and they always have the food ready within 10-15 minutes during lunch time if I call ahead and let me tell you - YOU NEED TO. this place is outrageously busy during the workweek lunch shift. I've never had to wait for my food as long as i call ahead, and when I get back to work to eat it, it's always hot and fresh. George the owner is fantastic and provides great customer service and during the lunch rush is super helpful trying to get orders in and take outs, out. Their pita bread is the best ive ever had! Crispy on the outside and warm on the inside, i look forward to the pita sometimes more than my actual meal.Office favorites include the greek salad w/ chicken, the gyro pita bowl, and the lentil soup. I honestly could say i would try anything on the menu without hesitation.

HUGE disappointment. Talked up how amazing Athens is to my coworker. We walked over for a carry out. I ordered a Greek salad with extra olives- there was one olive on the salad and very little toppings in general. Worst of all, they did not put pita in!!! It has always come with Pita and that's the best part. Finished lunch and still hungry. My coworker ordered a gyro bowl with chicken. They gave him lamb and the portion looks half of what it was before. Only one fork in the to go bag. This was always a Detroit favorite of mine but seems like it went way downhill. Super bummed because I was looking forward to it!
