The food was fine, prices were reasonable and service was quick. The Greek fries to my surprise didn't have feta cheese on it due to which I had to put feta crumbles in order to bring flavor. It didn't taste the same as the one I had at Lincoln Park Greek Fest.
The Gyros were good but I think they should have served it on pita already topped with tomatoes, onions, tzatziki sauce rather than serving it separate.
A disadvantage is that it is cash only and doesn't accept debit/credit card. So be prepared to have plenty of cash although they do have an ATM in the bar next door.
The Athenian Room was recommended by a friend of mine who grew up in Lincoln Park. They set very high expectations, but the AT still exceeded them all. Got the spanakopita to start and then the feta charburger dinner. Straight. Fire. The crispy Greek fries swimming in the salad dressing is genius. Five easy stars.
this is one of Chicago’s oldest Greek restaurants, and its been around since 1972. To this day, its still cash only, but they have an atm inside. With its rustic interior and extremely affordable prices, I was skeptical if the food was going to be good. The food comes out fast, and the servers are very attentive which is always a plus. The chicken was beautifully cooked, not the best chicken ever, but still solid.
Service was quick and the food is really inexpensive! I added the feta cheese to my salad and it went really nicely with the Greek fries on top. Heard a rumor that it’s Tina Feta favorite Chicago spot and I understand why. I was an easy and yummy place to get dinner on a night you don’t feel like cooking
If we were regulars, this is a place where everyone would know your name! It's family owned and the owner and son are there greeting guests! There is an adjoining bar where you can order drinks. You cannot go wrong with their charred burgers and chicken! The Greek fries are so mouthwatering and lemony! It's a great place for families as well. They even gave us free baklava for dessert! Whenever we are in the area, we make sure to stop in and bring our friends as well!
