Good good. I was wondering where the kitchen was and lo and behold it was next to the bar where you could not even notice there was a door there. The food was good it was authentic Greek food and and the waiter's/owner were very friendly to us and recommended some good dishes.. At the end of the meal they gave us a windex shot.

Family-operated Greek restaurant with authentic homemade flavor. The lunch specials are a fantastic deal. Quick service and warm hospitality!

We went for a catered event.. Service was good, they paid attention to all the guests, and did a good job overall. I thought the food could be better, it didn't quite have the presentation you come to expect at most Greek restaurants, but the taste was good. It's a fun place to go with friends or a date, but probably not for a special occasion.

Stumbled on Athena biking around park slope. Perfect spot for “Sunday dinner” or late lunch. Had the avgolemono soup and this amazing seasonal special: sautéed veal with artichoke hearts on rice (pictured). So well done , flavourful, to die for. I couldn’t have pita (dietary reasons) with the complimentary homemade hummus, and they offered to sub for cucumber, so kind!! Served by Chef himself ;) thank you! Will be back to try the truffle chicken ??

The best time! Amazing food… somewhere you just want to stay, drink and eat and the hospitality is delightful. My boyfriend and I , enjoying our dinner so much, we’re raving about the food/ experience and he told me “Bae, we definitely need to leave a review.”This is our new go-to spot for a low key, delicious and delightful date night.Thank you so much for having us. We loved how beautifully the tables and whole restaurant were decorated for Vday… the man who runs the place told us “I don’t like to disappoint my guests” and he was sure that we were happy the entire meal.

Always a great meal at Athena - for take out or for dine in.Delicious food each and every visit.Each dish we’ve had exceeded expectations.Consistently great caring service from owners and staff.Go once, and you’ll go back again and again.

The most awesome Greek Food in Brooklyn. Great service, family friendly, ample portions and reasonable prices. Highly recommended!

Great food & service! The spicy feta dip is off the chain, & they have the best grape leaves I've ever had! The salmon dish & sides were also very good. Can't wait to try other items on the menu!

Must go if you're in the area! You can tell the owner loves his resturaunt, has great energy, and wants you to have the best possible experience. Absolutely anything on the menu is great can't go wrong!

I can't believe it took me months of living next to this gem to actually pay it a visit. Teddy is a genius and quite a character. Make sure to ask about the Windex at the end!
