Can I just say, "fried cheese!" Amazing!! Don't know how they do it but it's the best we've had! And to dip the warm bread in the oil. Perfection. We love the Jordanian wrap loaded with meat. However, our new favorite is the tuna with this beautiful white cream sauce with shrimp. I'm drooling writing this. Of course, it comes with rice and super hummus. It's a must try. And bonus you can bring your own bottle of wine to enjoy. The people are always nice and the place is alway clean. Give it a try.

This is my go-to for Mediterranean anywhere in a 50 mile radius. My husband and I bring a bottle of wine with us (no cork fee)! Everything is good. Seriously. Hummus, grape leaves (vege and meat), salads, schwarmas, spinach pie, fresh pita; no matter what you order, you will love it. Bring a bottle of wine when you go.

Athenos was delish--chef's kiss!I was treated promptly and seated. The waitress was so kind and brought my drink immediately. I order my meal in a to-go container so I could easily bring the leftovers home.The feta salad was so fresh and delicious! The gyro plate was a great amount of food for the price. The hummus was homemade and I recommend paying extra to add the toppings to the hummus. I wish I would have been given more pita because some parts were so hard it wasn't great for dipping. Overall, I would definitely come back!The restrooms and dining area were clean. The dining area was inviting and I enjoyed looking at the flags and decor.I highly recommend!

I had a tasts for moussaka and it was no longer on the menu for my normal westbank restaurant. I found this restaurant easily. It was small, clean, and the clerk/waiter was friendly and helpful. The moussaka was wonderful. I probably should have also ordered a small side salad because I gobbled this down much too fast.

One of my favorite restaurants in Houma. I have never been disappointed with the food or the service. The feta salad is by far the best salad in Houma.
