Kafenio Avondale

I went to Kafenio in a good mood and this instantly changed. While ordering, I was asked by Joe if I wanted utinsils and I stated yes. One of my orders was a wrap. When I got it, I asked if there were utensils in it because I did not feel any. She proceeded to tell me it was a wrap and didn't know I needed it.... What is she? The utensil police??Then I was standing up (said nothing to this person).She proceeded to start fussing at me saying she promises she will get me my food and that I can sit down. At this point what is wrong with her? Because she doesn't control if I sit or stand. I asked her if I was bothering her, and she said no but she feels rushed. So I politely told her to stop talking to me and she walked awayCustomer service was trash to say the least and I won't be back.And her name is Joe. She clearly doesn't need to be in the front.

If you love Greek food, this place can definitely hit the spot! Good prices, flavorful food, great service but sometimes the parking lot can get full due to the other businesses and apartments. Just be aware!

I eat here for lunch often. Today I ordered a delicious Gyro with extra tzatziki sauce. Total was $12.25 plus tax. The service was quick and friendly The ambiance was moderately quiet. It's always the Gyro for me.

I usually make my own French toast but I decided to order some made to order. Ohhh my goodness, this French toast was amazing. I ordered online and it was ready when I arrived. It was mouth watering and absolutely delicious! The cafe has a chill vibe and the employees are very nice. I usually order a Greek salad but I'm glad I ate breakfast because it's just as fresh and delicious as lunch or dinner.

I was in Greece last summer, and was thrilled to find such an authentic Greek spot within walking distance of my home. I appreciate that I can have beer or cider with my diner- or tea, soda, local kombucha. It has been a fool-proof restaurant to take friends / family. It's also one of the few places where I will eat meat, because I can't resist a good gyro. (Same for my husband.) But the falafel is good as well. I highly recommend paying the small upcharge for the Greek potatoes- they are perfectly cooked: crisp on the outside, well-spiced, fresh & not greasy. They serve breakfast all day. Nicely laid out restaurant with family photos, and spacious booths. The staff are friendly, service is fast and helpful- a neighborhood treasure. I have to admit that the dolmades & baklava are just okay, which is disappointing given the quality of the fresh cooked meals on the menu. (My grandmother was Greek- I grew up eating both.)

This place is consistently great. The staff is really friendly and polite. The bathrooms are clean. Great vegetarian options. The salads are always fresh and the hummus is a hit!

I've been here several times, primarily for takeout, although I did eat outside once for a late Saturday brunch.Sadly I don't have any pics since it's usually takeout. I have always had pleasant service every time I've been here and I love the food. I usually order the gyro platter because I like that it comes with a side salad and I prefer to have the Greek potatoes instead of the rice pilaf. Whenever I order the platter, it's usually enough for two meals.I have also had the gyro sandwich which is also very good. The platter goes longer, so I prefer to order it.The baklava is fresh and tasty.And they have very strong coffee if you're there for brunch.One day I'm going to order the baklava cheesecake. It looks so good in the display case, but I haven't tried it yet.

I'm so glad to have found this cute little Greek spot in Avondale Estates. During my bi-weekly visit to Atlanta, I always stop to get lunch before my 2-hour drive home. Luckily, Kafenio is en route and has a user-friendly website that you can order from.You can find parking on the side in front of the Willis Apartments. There are designated retail parking spots. The restaurant has a charming feel to it, nice place to take a date. There is outdoor seating available as well. When I walked in, I was greeted by the friendly staff, I gave them my name for my to go order, and they handed me my food. My order consisted of the Greek salad, a chicken Gyro, and Greek potatoes. Typically, Greek salads come with Greek dressing, but they offer 5 optional dressings, so I chose the Greek lemon. I was under impressed with the salad, the dressing wasn't good and everything was cut way too big for my liking. I definitely would not recommend the Greek salad. The gyro was very good, the chicken was flavorful, and all the toppings were fresh and tasty. The greek potatoes just tasted like fried potato wedges , didn't taste like the greek potatoes I'm accustomed to with the lemon undertone, but they were still very good. The portions are huge, and I was full after a few bites. Kafenio is a great lunch spot. If you are in the area, it is definitely worth a try.

.An average place, I ordered a burger, it was decent. The service is ok and no ambiance, quick bite and go.

Falafel plate w/ Greek potatoes: falafels were good but salad was too salty and potatoes tasted greasy, no lemony flavor. Gyro plate was not that good either: did not taste fresh.Acai drink from the fountain was way too sweet and little else.Service was ok: you order at the counter and they bring the food to your table. Prices on the high side.
